Popping the seal on a new jar of coffee with a spoon.

Receiving email - I get loads at work but I always enjoy that little notification in the bottom right corner!
 
The thud when a new jar of mayo or pickle is cracked open.

The noise any well engineered metalwork makes as it works.

Sharpening a pencil in an electric sharpener - all the way to a nub!

Breaking wind.

:agree:

Can't explain why but I also get satisfaction from the envelope!
 
playing air drums (well tapping the steering wheel and nodding my head) in the car when sitting stationary in traffic with the stereo loud. When people look at me I give a


Well I don't give a **** what you think


look - makes me smile :lol:
 
The sound of a mountain stream.
 
I find removing and replacing the rubber cap on my tiny sandisk usb stick strangely satisfying.

Not in the same league as sharpening pencils is it ?

No, but then I have always sharpened pencils with a pocket knife. What noise there is doesn't do a lot for me.
 
Haha, oh we've got some saddos on this forum! ;)

I enjoy:
-Opening and closing the battery compartments on mobile phones/tv remotes/cameras etc
-The little achievement unlocked pop up/sound on the Xbox 360
-Making lists of things that I want/need/did/should do etc
-Wearing sunglasses
-Chewing plastic things
-Writing in black felt tip pen

That is very satisfying isn't it ! No other colour is quite the same is it. ?


Another one I've just thought of is peeling a hard boiled egg, specially the very last bit, (usually the top or bottom third), immensly gratifying !
 
The smell of freshly cut grass :D

And petrol stations.

Oh and taking a good photo

I like that one, but isn't it the exact opposite when you are left with half the egg attached to the shell !.
 
I enjoy putting my daughters underwear on her head.

Clocking out at work :D
 
Pulling the lace out from under my foot when it goes inside my shoes/boot.
 
does giving your missus a good seeing to count?

:agree: Also trying to maintain above 30mph overall average speed on the GPS:geek:
 
These amuse me, but possibly not my girlfriend

Juggling with any 3 fruit in the bowl
Picking my scabs from riding/faling off my bike
The squeaky noise you get when you REALLY clean your glasses
Moaning about the washing up, when i actually enjoy doing it

I probably have about a billion other little things, i'm slightly OCDish about some stuff, but these are the ones that really satisfy me.
 
scratching your feet, hmmmmm.....
 
The simple pleasures in life are what makes a good day, I think.

I am a fast (ie - correct) walker, and enjoy walking. Though I live in Mordor, I frequently take a route to the tube that will take me half an hour or so through the city, for the sheer joy of walking through the city (camera in hand, natch).

So for me, a simple pleasure is when going to bed, slowly removing my boots, and then slowly removing my socks ... oooohhh ... yeaaaah!

Also, smoking and drinking do wonders in lieu of anything of interest going on in one's life.
 
I have seeded many a lawn in the properties we have owned and can not help myself regularly checking the soil to celebrate the first green shoots.

I am currently checking the latest :cuckoo:

Ooh, that one is very high up on my list lol. I once sharpened a brand new pencil at work so much, that there wasn't an awful lot of it left by the end of the day!! LOL!! :lol:

Other craziness includes..............................

  • Placing a ruler on the edge of desk and constantly hitting it so that it makes a "boing" kind of noise!!
  • Plaiting my hair into teeny plaits, then unravelling it out again.......very therapeutic
  • Pressing "lock" & then "unlock" button on mobile repeatedly lol
  • Getting the leather whip out.....................ooh, sorry, that's another forum, LOL, LOL. :lol::D

I have more though, but that's enough for now.

Look what you've started........lol. :lol:
