    Always drive over the black bits of zebra crossings.

    Always try and overtake and get back into lane one without driving over a cat's eye.

    I do like a good pedestrian race

    I do that. I had a classic race the other week with some bloke who was none the wiser. I never caught him. It wasn't you JT was it! ( it was for the Maidstone Wheatsheaf to Morrisons World Title Walk )
    I also sometimes do a surprised "Hi" to myself if I pass a mirror and there's no one about.

    Make random noises or jump about like a monkey, sing stupid songs like Barbie Girl and Jack and Jill in as deep an opera voice as I can, pick stuff up off the floor with my toes, practice my free kick technique and try to throw tea bags into cups from as far away as possible, often through the legs or behind the back

    In the car do beep and wave. Toot the horn and wave at a random person and they invariably wave back thinking they must know you.

    I do that as well.

    Always try to throw balled-up paper into waste-paper basket from as far away as possible for a 3-pointer, basketball stylee!

    I also say "bridge" when I get into lifts, but I don't have to be alone for that. ;-)

    That one made me giggle.

    See how far I can walk down the road with my eyes closed

    In the car, line up a mark on the windscreen with a car in the distance and take it out with machine gun fire

    Yep

    Bloody hell - I do this as well! I also walk round my flat with my eyes shut trying to walk from room to room without bumping into anything.
    Me too. I once fell into a hedge in front of an attractive woman.

    I nod my head at lampposts when walking, and when driving I slap my right hand on the steering wheel if there's a gap all the way between the traffic and two lampposts

    That may have crossed the line from 'nutty' to 'OCD'. :)

    The brain's way of inventing games to keep itself alert whilst performing boring tasks like driving.

    20 minutes was probably exaggerated haha.

    Another beatboxer here. Pretty bloody good at it now - after about 20 years of practice.

    Another slightly odd thing I do is sing along to songs, but one line ahead. God knows why I do that.

    I've mastered Daniel Bedingfields, 'Gotta get through this'. I can now do the beat and the tune at the same time. Honestly, I think my talents are wasted here.

    I still can't do the Charleston, and as the kitchen floor is quite slippy, I practise The Lambeth Walk rather more often than I care to admit.

    @GlassHalfEmpty watches Geordie Shore when no one is around. I caught him out the other day as he left it downloaded on the Sky Planner.

    I like to try and film people singing whilst they are in their car, buliding up a compilation video to go viral on youtube...

    That's a serious amount of pubic hair.

    Yep me too, but it's not overlooked. Have also used the kitchen sink which really annoyed the gf as she was doing the washing up at the time.

    A good few years back I had a job temping in a stockroom. Absolutely no one came to get anything ever and all I had on my "desk" was a load of marker pens and for some reason some huge elastic bands.
    I managed to come up with a game whereby the pens were stacked along a wall and I had to knock them over by pinging the elastic bands at them.
    Then it started to get serious.
    It became the World Championship Pinging Elastic Bands At Marker Pens. I was a contender for the title. I even began to look forward to going into work as the plucky British Hope.
    The only problem was I set the benchmark too high and the best I ever managed was second place! In my own game :-)
    I also had a job selling houses from a show home and no one ever turned up to see that either. I tried to reprise the game again but couldn't find enough marker pens or big elastic bands. And it was never quite the same anyway. In the end I learned to juggle using tippex bottles instead.
    My contribution to this country's GDP has generally been quite small ;-)
