I was quirk tagged :(
Chika was so kind with me when she finally found out I am the last one untagged. The Last Man Standing. Not that I like it, and I can’t promise you will like it as well. Here we go:
The Rules:
- Link the person(s) who tagged you.
- Mention the rules on your blog.
- Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.
- Tag 6 following bloggers by linking them.
- Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged.
The Quirks:
- Socially, I am a disaster. Unlike many Kuwaities, and I can attribute part of that for being such a geek. I go to Diwaniyas, yes, once every 3 months or more. I usually go out in groups of 2, including me. You get the idea.
- Being a programmer, I can’t use IDEs for programming. For years, I stuck to the wonderful, fast, bugs free Notepad. I upgraded then to rich editors, such as Notepad++ and now amazing TextMate. It’s actually the killer app made me want Mac in the first place.
- I am a natural disaster in graphics. No matter how hard I try, I just don’t have it. My last attempt was end of Jan for my kid birthday cake picture. You don’t wanna see the results.
- When typing, every 10th click is the Ctrl+S button. It’s just natural.
- I cannot focus on one thing for a long time. I have to go walk around, think things over in my head, just like Bojacob :).
- Ketchup and Mayonnaise is a must for many type of meals, I even add Mayonnaise to Macaroni sometimes. If Mayonnaise is not there, Hommos can take it’s place, but not Ketchup alone. It’s a sin!
Since there is no one else untagged, says a lot about my popularity, I am tagging the one person I know only, MrMMM. Even though he’s technically, blogospherically dead. I’m still tagging him.
UPDATE: I tagged another one. Seems you have to search hard to find them. They’re like pearls. Dr Mahbob is tagged.

not a big fan of ketchup and mayo! your pretty quirky! I do save while working too but not every 10th click :-P
chika: Thanks for your sympathy. I’m fine by the way being a geek than anything else :). Ohh, and I hate MAYO who I don’t know too. By inheritance.
Ansam: Yeah, people dont even notice I’m saving and keep saying DID YOU SAVE!!!
By the way, did you notice how quick people jumped to comment to this post as opposed to some other posts that I really work hard on :)
Kinda funny.
LLOOOLLLL – yeh, Bashar, it’s these heavyweight intellectual kind of posts that get the most comments! Loved hearing how quirky you are!
You’re not a social disaster, you just need to find people who speak the same language. Object-Oriented ofcourse :P
Intlxpatr: Thanks. Always fun to read, always pain to write :)
3baid: Hahaha… Yeah well, this is what normal people call unsocial! So I was speaking their language there for a second. So what’s your protocol?
(This is equivalent to Are you democrat? Or are you Islamist or Liberal :P)

P.S: I HATE MAYO!
