I always put my left shoe /boot/trainer ect ect on first .I always wear black socks ,except my red ones wich I only wear with my Starsky adidas trainers
I can't stand cross kitchen (I call it cross-chicken-kitchen).
I f***ing hate modern western sushi, you know the stuff with mayo and avocado and sith!
I get irritated by badly dressed (what I mean by this, that they are not necessarily "badly dressed" in conventional way, but that they are dressed in a wrong way, you know tie tied poorly or in a wrong way, etc) news and sports journalists. To the point that my wife no longer watches news with me. 8-)
I can blabber about my "personal life" (mostly fabricated stuff) endlessly with strangers, but I won't discuss work related stuff even with my wife. (This irritates my wife continuously, she's always complaining that she's out of the loop).
I wear a watch everywhere, even in sauna. I have a beater watch for this use only.
I have a flashlight and a knife on me all the time. (I have managed to incorporate a knife (-like object) even to my carry on in aeroplanes.... shhhh don't tell anyone....)
I try to drink the best beverages I can afford, except whisky, which I like cheap and nasty, my current favorites being VAT69 and Jim Beam.
Aand finally: I am absolutely addicted to news, I follow several news feeds on smart devices, I have a 24hr news channel on at all times in home and at work and I get e-mail alerts when I'm otherwise occupied and unable to actively follow.

When I eat, I like to have a small bit of everything on my fork at the same time: morsel of meat, small square of potato, half a green bean etc. I portion out my food so that at the end of the meal, I still have enough of each for the final mouthful. Even with a hamburger and chips or fish and chips, woe be told anyone who pinches my last chip and leaves me with only a final bite of burger or fish.

A tip. Polish your shoes as normal - I presume you polish them - afterwards wipe over with one of those instant shoe shine sponges. The result an almost parade ground ready shine. I stumbled across this many years ago. I have always liked well polished shoes/boots especially when in uniform. I had polished my boots one day then wondered what effect running the sponge over them would have. Hey presto a superb finish.
Thanks for the tip, stag. I'll have to do that from now on! I have used those shine sponges in the past. -{

They're also very handy to have if you find yourself stranded in a desert without water and you've just drunk your last tin of motor oil. Sucking the liquid polish out of one of those sponges can buy you at least an extra hour!

I'm too guarded, i'm cynical, opinionated, hypocritical, hold grudges, daft, self-degrading and spend most my time worrying and stressing out over trivial stuff that's usually just one of life's crappy situations that's out of my control.
But on the plus side I'd like to think I'm loyal, knowledgeable (I know everything about nothing), dedicated and try not to blow my own trumpet too much (really hurts the ribs).
I try to live by Q's final advice to bond in TWINE but usually fail dismally at both parts.
I hate my car being dirty,
I only wear a certain 2 tom ford aftershaves,
I always go to the same barbers,
I don't like flavour shots in coffee,
My kitchen knives have got to be sharp and cleaned and put away immediately after use.
I have loads of others but I'm stopping now for fear of sounding totally ocd!!
I have another one. My wife pointed it out after I had gone into one of my grumblings at this party we went to in Saturday night. I didn't even realize I did this, so it hast to be true. It is so deep that it borders on paranoia.....
I have a deep distrust of anyone that calls them selves as being straight talking and honest. My wife says that I always start the same grumbling how they use their "honesty" and "straight talking as a thin smokescreen to hide the fact that they are only being disrespectful and insulting. She even said that most of my friends are people she wouldn't trust at all because there is something "shifty" about them, and that people I usually distrust and complain about are people that to her seem like honest people. Go figure!

Have dozens of shoes but only seem to wear one or two pairs regularly.
I'm either well dressed and coordinated or casual to the point of looking homeless.
Eat spaghetti from a can.
Don't wear a watch or carry a wallet.
Have no cell phone.
Speed into my driveway like the Batmobile returning to base.
Live in a big house but only occupy a few rooms.
Have a series of catchphrases.
Have more women friends than men friends (which seems odd to a lot of people though not me).
I cut my own hair.
I always wear black shoes, never trainers.
I constantly write notes and article ideas concerning James Bond and other topics of interest.
I thought served in paper was long gone due to "health and safety" crap??
Well to clarify they still use paper around fish and chips in the UK, just not newspaper which has newsprint dye on it of course.
