Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am an obsessive freak and can't let anything go (despite my last post), and I found a post from me in Natter 8, where I called it "Bob-likes-peas syndrome." it's an archived thread, so I don't know how to make a link. But maybe I picked it up from bon bon and totally forgot. I can't remember a damn thing from 2003, so who knows?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Teppy originated "likes carrots" fur sure.

That would work for me, Frankenbuddha.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What is even happening?

I'm pretty sure I'm the genesis of that one. It's the phenomenon often seen when someone has a new SO and they can't stop talking about him/her, and use any excuse, no matter how tenuous, to keep talking about him/her. So if someone mentioned they cooked carrots for dinner, the newly smitten person would pipe up with "Bob likes carrots!"

I'm way out of this, but if memory serves, I'd bet the mortgage that Teppy originated the Bob Likes Carrots thingie.
