I realized (I think I've had this realization before) that I take on the voice and to a certain extent, personality of whatever book/anime/TV series I'm watching. As I was writing a book review (for this other secret blog I have) and I realized I was almost going to talk like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. It was horrifying and entertaining at the same time.
I think I might have to be careful about what I watch because it has too big of an effect on me.... But I think it depends on how into it I am.
I also realized that I am oddly attracted to prideful men, i.e. House from House, Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory, Kim GunWoo (the older fussier one) from Beethoven Virus... or perhaps it is their idiosyncrasies that make me interested in them... Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean would be another example of odd men that I'm attracted to. I hope this isn't the case in real life because I feel like it'd be irritating to deal with on a day to day basis...
[update]
I realize that my trains of thought are very often interrupted by other thoughts in my head. Like I'll be thinking along for example string of thought A and then all of a sudden, with no connection whatsoever to thought A, I'll start thinking about string of thought C. By string of thought, I don't mean just a single thought "Oh what fine weather we're having today" but "Oh the weather's nice but that one cloud may be an indication of rain in which case I don't want to wear those boots that may stain if it does rain and I get them wet. But if they're waterproof and I do get them wet, it wouldn't matter." Then all of a sudden I think, "If all the puzzles in the world were a derivation of a single puzzle that someone invented a long, long time ago, would we ever be able to find that one source? I wonder if finding all the connecting links to puzzles would lead to that one puzzle."
More often than not, I'll completely and totally forget string of thought A, though this time around, I remembered it.
I also realized that I think thoughts without consciously knowing what they are. To give a hypothetical example, I'll think about the usefulness of soap because of the cleansing action of the bubbles and how because some people think that smearing soap on your hands without making it bubble will still be effective, they created foam soap. But then I'll think, is it really the bubbles that create the cleaning action on your hands? (btw, I don't know if this is true because I don't remember where I heard it so I could be wrong...) And all this time, I won't realize I'm thinking this until somehow, somewhere, I'll be talking to someone about it and remember this random thought I was having and I won't remember the context of it at all.
I wonder if a lot of people do that too. I realized people are much more similar than they realize (though there are obvious differences).
