Default Scale tricks (and I'm taking the 120!)

I realized when weighing myself this morning that I have a rather odd ritual. I'll only weigh myself after using the restroom fully (if you know what I mean LOL), it has to be first thing in the am (before any food, coffee etc), I'll be only in a tshirt (this morning it was cold and I had sweatpants on, had to take them off), then I get on and off the scale at least 7 times and take the best 5. Each time you get on it could be a pound or so different so it only counts if you hit the same number 4 or 5 times. Now if for some reason my weight is 1/2 pound higher than the last time I weighed then i'll ignore it, I won't make any profile changes until its at least 1/2 pound less! Today I noticed the red line was slightly off the 0, maybe 1/4 pound toward the 1 so I adjusted the line down to the 0 and I'll be damned if I didn't get a 120, only got it twice but I'm taking it dammit!
Do you all do weird stuff like this when weighing in, please tell me I'm not the only crazy one here?
