This one is kinda niche, but I’m a hairstylist. Whenever I wash my clients hair, as I give them a head massage with the conditioner I send loving thoughts into the universe over whatever is going on in their life.

During a strenuous time in my life I got a lot of pizza delivered. And when you have rats, you "acccidentally" drop treats. For the rest of his little rat life he would accompany me to the door, even go out into the staircase and look down, hoping the magic pizza man had returned.

Not really whimsical but I always tell random girls they r pretty because when someone calls me pretty I think about it for like a week and I hope they think about it too
LakotaWolf (she/her) 9 months ago
Whenever I see someone (regardless of gender) with something cool, like a funny T-shirt or an enamel pin of a character or critter, or a neat accessory related to an IP I recognize, I always compliment it. The person is wearing the thing because they like it, and are happy to wear it, and it costs me nothing to say, "Wow, that is a really cool Pokémon lanyard!" - and who knows, it could make someone's day :)

Then again, why should 'pretty' be so important? Why not accomplished or even bad a*s?
Earonn - 9 months ago
An easy way to make a compliment for men and women is their knitwear. Especially if you can see it's hand knitted. Just tell them you like it. They might have bought it (great taste!), made it (well done!) or someone who loved them made it for them (yay, you are loved!). And honestly, there's so much pretty knitting out there. Admittedly, perhaps a bit more here in Scotland than in sunny California, but still...

I teach the dog how to do things either to make them more interesting for me ('Let me show you how to start a load of laundry') or just to make him feel included ('Do you remember how to make coffee or should I walk you through it again? I know it's hard to remember since you can't practice without thumbs.')

My dog knows 'go back to sleep', if I move and wake her up and say that, she puts her head right back down and goes back to sleep.

My dog likes to hang out in the kitchen while I'm cooking so naturally I talk to him. My husband says everytime he walks by it sounds like I'm putting on a cooking show for the dog. "And now we add a cup of flour, where did I put that measuring cup? Should we check the dishwasher?" etc.

When I had a Roomba, we called him “Angelo” after the butler in “The Prisoner.” Angelo, unfortunately, ate the only piece of jewelry I’d ever gotten from the most important person in my life and I didn’t catch it, so likely one of us dumped it into the trash. It still gives me a pain in my chest remembering it. 😞

That's hilarious. The boyfriend and I theorize that there is an "Order" of pigeons, and to determine which pigeons are in The Order, you gotta look at their toes.

There is a very sadly-large number of pigeons with missing toes... ;-; at least where I live, where bird spikes are common. So cruel

cerinamroth 9 months ago
11:11 would just make me say "Legs eleven!" but then I was brought up on bingo halls.
LakotaWolf (she/her) 9 months ago
11 is considered by some to be a lucky number, because in the belief of numerology, 11 is a "Master Number", which signifies spiritual awareness or psychic intuition. And it's even stronger when it's "doubled", such as when the time is 11:11, so that's why some people wish on it. When I was a kid, I think I once misheard or misinterpreted something I read that stated midnight was the "witching hour" and 11pm was the "wolf's hour", so I've always loved 11:11pm and called it "double wolves" since I was a kid XD I used to make wishes on it when I was like 10 years old. I don't believe in numerology, but I still think of 11:11 as "double wolves" and it makes me smile if I happen to catch it on the clock ;)

I shout 'NO, not YOU! I don’t even know you!' in the voice of Lilly Moscocvitz when I’m looking for something and find something else unrelated.

I say random things and conversations with myself just to confuse anyone who’s listening to my Alexa.

Any time I make a mistake at work I giggle to myself, apologize, and say 'it’s my first day.' I’ve worked for the same company for 5 and a half years.

I did this working in customer service. Any time a mistake happened, someone would ask if I was a new employee. I just went along with it.

My grandma had one shaped like a piano accordion. She often matched her outfit to it too.

When I'm washing floors I'll start singing "Sing Sweet nightingale" like in Cinderella, and when I'm dusting I'll sing "Whistle While you Work" like in Snow White.

I do this with my mezuzah! I touch it when I come in and when I go out, give my hand a kiss and say "Hello, mezuzah - and thank you!" When my daughter was smaller, she would jump and high-five the mezuzah.

Skipping instead of running
Huddo's sister 9 months ago
When I was in uni my music lecturer was pretty random. One day some of my classmates saw him skipping down the street and were laughing about it but I just thought how good it was he could live in the moment and not worry about what others thought. I used to skip around a lot when I was a teenager, but then got too self conscious.

My Mum used to do the hop scotch jumps on the carpet tiles in the library. Cue teenage me dying of embarrassment.

I love this, but equally wouldn't dare try it in Germany when you're sitting in a room butt naked with a load of strangers!

Idk if this is whimsical but my favorite color was orange as a child because I felt like everyone liked all of the other colors more and I didn’t want it to feel left out or under appreciated 😅

OMG, me too! In an array of things, I would always buy the orange one out of sympathy
GenuineJen 9 months ago
My favorite color was orange too! But why are we all using past tense? How sad. Has your color changed? My favorite is now green. I may have to include orange again as it seems it might be left out again...

When my goddaughter was young I gave her a ring to remind her she could always ring me if she needed. She's in her 30s now, and she lost it in the sea on holiday last month, and was really upset. I told her it had slipped off on purpose and it would find another little girl who needs it. Her answer was "you do talk c**p but I feel better now"

Once a friend and I exchanged a $10 bill for 10 loonies (Canadian $1 coin) and hid them all around a playground so some kids would get excited to find them 😊 I still occasionally toss coins out of my pocket if I’m walking through a playground

There’s a lady in my town who does this haha. I don’t know her but every time I’ve seen her out in public she’s got her tiara on. It’s kind of adorable. ☺️

I always thank the good spirit that watches over me when I think I've lost something but find it later on or when I realize I missed an accident by seconds. Yes, I believe someone, or something is watching over me due to the many odd incidents I've experienced.
