I figured it might be interesting and kind of fun to have a thread of "confessions". Nothing too serious per say, just things you don't really tell people, stuff you're a little embarrassed to admit, or simply things you want to say that people may not know. Be warned, though, I'll smite both you and your profile if you come in to mock people. Also, let's keep it safe for work, please. I'll start off with a few examples.
I listen to and enjoy Coldplay.
I have, on more than one occasion, been driven to sleeplessness just by thinking about very silly and abstract concepts.
With the exception of bacon, I am not particularly fond of the flavor an texture of most meat products.
I cannot help but sing along to most songs by Mark Knopfler.
I have a pathological hatred of wearing shirts with long sleeves, and always roll the sleeves up on any button down shirt I have to wear.

I can't stand the feel of noticeably fibrous materials. Smooth weaves, like most cloth, are fine, but things like cotton balls, rough twine, or mattress foam squick me the hell out. Even happens sometimes sort of "second hand", I hate writing with felt-tip markers because I can feel the vibrations of the material coming back through the pen as I write, and it just gets...ugh Applies to some foods, to, most notably beans. Going the other way, I have a serious fondness for certain types of very cheesy pop music. Comes to mind right now because I've been listening to old D-Pop all weekend

I confess;
I find Rosanne Barr/Arnold attractive.
I have concrete almost Draconian manners when it comes to saying 'thank you' and have been driven almost to rage when I don't hear it in return. Opening a door for someone for instance...if I don't hear 'thank you' I will actually belittle them openly.
I sleep on the floor. I haven't had a bed in years.
I find it very difficult to "own" another living thing. It's akin to slavery to me. Take my cat Max for instance, he is allowed to come and go as he pleases and if ever he didn't come home I would not search the neighborhood nor would I grieve his death. Kind of distant I guess. Of course he is an augmentation to my life yet I see him as his own being not to be fettered my me.
I want to drop out of society. Totally.
I had a fascination with fire when I was younger. I got my family evicted from two apartment complexes because of it.
I lived on cat food for 2 weeks.

Rook, it strikes me that you're looking for more of an animal companion than a pet. Nothing wrong with that, just an observation. I also like your approach to "Thank you". It's not something I would do myself, but I'm glad someone does. Also, a few more from me.
I find it exceptionally hard to kill birds or mammals, as well as most reptiles and amphibious, even if they're suffering. In several occasions in the past, I've been simply unable to end the lives of dying birds that have hit a window at my house.
I cannot stand to eat even a bit of the papery husk of a pistachio.
I cried my eyes out at the end of the movie Big Fish, and also cried a bit during Up. I consider them to be two of the best movies I've ever seen.
I have never been as proud of any grade I've ever received in school as I am when I put together something complex with my own hands, be it a model or a piece of furniture.
Although I'm unlikely to enter the military for several reasons, the main one is I am simply terrified I'd screw up and get someone killed.
Pandas, conceptually, make me angry.

I have fragile teeth and cringe whenever I think about chewing aluminium. I keep getting really odd images in y head of people that then drives me to despise them for no reason and be overtly rude and sometimes aggressive towards them because of it.
I love practiclly raw meat, I mean a bloody steak is well cooked by my standards. I also enjoy bollocking people and am constantly in a bad mood, I try to covr this up by smiling alot or keeping to myself, neither of which truly work because I am a sociable guy who loves life.

It's not something I would do myself, but I'm glad someone does. Reds I prefer the company of equals. Even though my cat may be seen as inferior to some, he is my better and I his on many different levels. Also, I confess; I collect keys. Don't know why really. 'Every key goes to a lock and every lock has a key'. Still, I must have about a hundred of them.

- I always wear two shirts even though the temperature here is always 30 to mid 40's celsius. - I have to side with Reds, I cried too at the end of Big Fish.
- I also cried at the end of the movie Click. Well near the end, the mood, the tone, the whether.
- I can really only sleep with a blanket over me.
- I am scared of facehuggers and half life barnacles. Funnily enough I use to be scared of chestbursters until I watched a 'Let's play' on youtube where the poster referred to them as little penises.

- I have a journal I write in, but only when I've been drinking to see what those same thoughts look like from a sober perspective later.
- All of my friends consider me a very sociable, people person. People scare the crap out of me.
- I'm usually seen listening to a lot of punk and ska type music. When on my own I listen to nothing but New Orleans style folk/jazz.
- I have no ties or love for any religion whatsoever, but have a sort of spirituality in music
- I hate it when someone pokes me anywhere even close to my bellow button. Can't stand it.

And that the last girl I really loved will was the only girl I really will.
Introspective hookah is not as he presents himself. As an ex once said. 'But how much of you is true, and how much is posturing..?' hehehe, probably too much, but enough to confuse the next girl enough into bed.
Bah, it's 06:40 roughly, been drinking since 17:00. Over 24 hrs. Heh. A good dance though.

-"Never Give You Up" is in the top 25 most played on my iTunes library
-Besides being incredibly self conscious, I truly hate going to the beach because I'm unnaturally terrified of being in water and not being able to see/touch the bottom when I swim down. Seriously, a dungeon boss in a video game scared the crap out of me because the only way into his room was to jump into a pool of dark water.
-I've thought way too much about the concept of time travel, and as such I've pinpointed the exact time and location in my life I would jump back to. I also wish this could be possible as I fully believe my life would be better because of it.
-"Toy Story" had a huge effect on my childhood. Even today I think my Guard models have feelings and hate it when I let them die so easily during a game.

That is a very common phobia, no less then 55% of my friends have a fear of open water. - I am not a fan of any particular music, though I do like listening to the OST's for games. - I enjoy writing but I hate all my work.

I have the same feeling toward cotton etc, nappy changes are terrifying for me for this reason... I cant pick the gorram thing up!
I have vertigo, not a fear of heights... Made sitting in the back row of Nou Camp very awkward, thought i was gonna roll down the stairs if i wanted a drink/toilet break.
I hate people, like...almost everyone, if i never saw another person who isnt in my family or close friends then i wouldnt be atall bothered, i do know they are required to make me stuff so that aint exactly possible. (Im very polite to people i dont know however, his is just the feeling i have inside me)
I wish i lived in a time such as the 12th or 14th century, only toilet paper was around. I could live with catching my own food making shelter and defending against bandits but i will NOT wipe my ass with a leaf!!!

I do not believe in Love... to which I mean that I am still in 'love' with a beautiful cruel girl from over 15 years past and all since relationships have failed as love clouded my vision of who they were. I believe in most instances we confuse Love with Lust.
My present partner I chose using logic and process of assessment, ie, she communicate effectively, she is calm and mostly rational, she can walk up a hill and enjoy the view (something which is important to me), she likes similar tastes but has lot that are different. That said, she's still madder than a bucket of frogs and I have no comprehension of what her thought processes even after 5 years.
I see friends in 'Love' and just think that they've set themselves up for a fall, rose tinted glasses and bliners on claiming perfection and amazement. Nope, she's just got a nice figure and likes to tickle your thingy. You wait... she'll rip yer innards out and wear them in public while leaving you in a bath of chill powder and acid with a salt and lemon towel.
I hate sleeves or anything covering my wrists or forearms, and struggle with stuff over my ankles and feet unless it is absolutely necessary for practicality. I have spent about 7 years barefoot.
I like breaking things. I find a lot of joy in destruction, things like metal panels that dent when you hit them, or glass which shatters when you smash it etc. I owned a few old trucks that is was stripping for spares and got to have a lot of fun when no one was in earshot. I think I should start banger racing / contact motor sport. (would mean not spending money of 40k though).
I have a big soft spot for really really cheesy anthemic house music.. which I blame on the people who gave me euphoria educing substances and took me to Camden for a night of intense house music.
I also feel emotionally raw, so find cheesy films and kids films often make me cry.. I blame this on the above mentioned substances mucking with my neural networks. remember.. drugs are bad, either that or toy story 3 is really really sad.
I have raged against the older generation for destroying our planet, and come to realise I have done little but destroy it too... but have been a hypocrite in the process.

MAll this talk of crying at films, im going to lose some lad points here too Before i had kids i only ever cried in Gladiator(the russel crowe one not the amazing cuba gooding jr one) when he died and A Knights Tale when he met his dad. After having kids just about anything will set me off if im in the right mindset, like that advert about car safety where the guys sat in his living room driving and he crashes but his family make him a sestbelt by hugging him...getting choked up just thinking about it. Kids turn men into massive pussies >.< Edit: If you were interested www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-8PBx7isoM&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I have so many keys, some of them go to my old car or doors from houses I rented. I also have a tendency to steal keys, not kleptomania, their have been times when I've had the perfect opportunity to steal a keyring, even had it in my hand and then put it back and walked away. Also it's hard to see you guys as people and not just pixels.

I'm a diabetic with a sweet tooth.
I'm prone to speaking in quotations.
I'm 24, and have yet to move out of my parents' house or find gainful employment.
I have probably half an hour of my life missing due to seizures (I don't remember anything that happens during them), and I have spent far too much of my life in hospitals.
On the subject of seizures, there was an incident where I was apparently lucid enough to joke, when a nurse scanned the barcode on my hospital bracelet, "$19.95, plus tax." I do not remember any of this.

I hate the taste and smell of water.
When I was little, my eyesight was in a different category of 'better than a normal human's.'
I can see colors that other people can't.
My hearing is sub-par, but the range of frequencies I can hear is wider than normal, making life difficult sometimes; most electronic devices make an intolerable sound. Lightbulbs are especially bad. This is why I always try to keep music playing.
I have a very severe policy with physical comfort: if, say, a hair on my body is bothering me, I will go so far as to gouge out that section of skin with sharp tweezers if I still feel it after scratching and removing the surrounding hair.
I have an aversion to other people, yet I get lonely without them.
I would start an orphanage if I had the money.
I usually end up regretting or questioning most of my decisions in life.
I've learned that I can, in fact, racially profile people. I despise myself for it, even while I know it's due to the differences in cultural perceptions and learned behaviors of those people.
I'm somewhat xenophobic, even as I seek out people from other places and learn about other cultures.
If I were in charge of a country, it would end up as a fascist dictatorship. It would collapse either immediately after I stopped being in charge, or immediately before I stopped being in charge.

- I do not know how old I am, 21 is a guess, I could be anywhere from 20 to 23. I'm not homeless or fostered, I just don't know. Whenever i check my birth cert I forget an hour later.
- I'm terrified of sex and do anything I can to stop people finding this out.
- My dog is the only person in my life I consider a friend.

I love heavy metal But I also like to listen to Katty perry and Ne-Yo
I look aggressive and come across angry so that people don't find out about the nice lighter side to me, Only girls that I really like no about me as it were.
I really fancy my co-worker in accounts... She is really nice and I sadly comparer other girls to her.

I've never actually killed anyone. I consider this a terrible underachievement. I got kicked out of university. I'm terrified of failure, and yet a monstrous procrastinator. My desires, career wise, include: Writing, brewing beer, designing miniatures, growing marijuana, learning to program, creating my own video game, running my own country, being a fighter pilot, piracy. I'm polyamorous. I have a strange dislike for alternative types (goths, emos, rockers, metalheads) as I feel they need to unfornicate themselves and stop being so damn cliquey. I haven't held down a proper job since being 19. I think Stadium Arcadium was the Red Hot Chili Pepper's best album.
