What is something that most people normally do that you find weird? (feddit.org)

A lot of people kiss their pets or non-human animals in general. I find that very weird. I understand that it is a sign of affection but it seems so off. One reason is that I doubt whether animals really understand this. Also it seems to be on a level of intimacy to me that I find weird sharing with a pet. Not necessarily romantically or sexually (that would be even more weird and wrong and probably illegal). But it is still "more". I am not sure whether I can really explain why exactly I find that weird.

Anyway, what is something that is weird to you but not to most other people?

He’s a green cheeked conure. I also have an African Grey who doesn’t like to be smooched. What kind do you have?

    Aww I love Greys!! They're so smart and have such a wide vocabulary.

    We sort of happened upon them from a couple who needed to surrender, but a Blue Fronted Amazon and more recently, a Goffin's Cockatoo.

    My Grey is kind of a dummy (or maybe just too smart to perform for my approval) but I love her anyway. She’s the sweetest and loves just hanging out on my shoulder.

    I had a Blue Fronted years ago, he was the best boy ever. He was an amazing singer and mimic and loved to cuddle. Thanks for taking in birds that need homes!!
