Your Weird Habits

Lorce

I really need to start thinking of better titles for my threads -.-

Anyways: Habits!!

We all have them, some are common, some not so much and some are just outright weird!
From biting your nail to picking out your wedgie and smelling your fingers after, things are bound to get a lil nasty here :p

What are yours? Many habits are linked with a personal OCD's, so let's see how crazy yours are.

My personal weird habits:

-Picking my nose (cos how else am I gonna get rid of those hard bogies? They're not gonna crumble off the interior walls of my nose just by blowing… and some of them are uncomfortable :( )

-When I use someone elses PC and I see folders named like this 'my stff' i just can't help myself changing it to 'My Stuff' ... I have this bad OCD for using capital letters alot... just check the thread title lol

-Similar to above, when I see the desktop full of junk, and softwares that are totally useless, I just have to save this person from that mess... so I usually ask if I can clean it up a bit for them, once Ido, it usually ends up looking pretty much like mine lol (software wise as well)

-I don't know why, but I'm reall sensitive when it comes to my neck... like if I'm wearing headphones and one of the cables is touching my necks, I can't eave it like that, I have to move it away from there... it's really weird... even like when I watch House MD and they cut a little hole in the neck when the patient has a asthma attack, I feel like I have to touch my neck on that spot and check I'm okay XD guess it's like my weak spot or something

-I crack my fingers alot, and my neck

-When I look in the mirror, I make the ugliest expression possible to reassure myself I ain't good looking, thus not getting big headed lol

Aaaaand that's it, don't wanna mention too much, might steal other peoples ones.

Enjoy!

I have an OCD for the number 3. If I go to public restrooms, I need to use the third one from the starting of the row. If its occupied, I WAIT! Weird…

FelRes

I like to think everyone picks their nose and anyone who says they don't is a dirty liar.

I like rocking back and forth when playing a game or watching a long video or something.

If I touch something, I have to touch it with all fingers evenly. I will sometimes sit there and touch an object with each finger individually until I feel confident they've each gotten the same number of touches. That's my most OCD thing.

I like leaning back on chairs.

I was never under the impression that being asian is a weird habit…unless youre not actually asian or something...or whatever. Unless you are implying that being a stoned asian is in itself a peculiar habit.

I had the same habit when I was a kid. Took me a long time to get over it and console myself that it's okay the object will do just fine without my touches.

You're asian. Have you not seen how weird you are?

I jump 40 times after each bath I take.

I take a very cold bath each 30/31 day of a month.

When I´m angry, I bite my tongue.

I have some weird habits..

i like to sing japanese songs to my anime shows.

Is picking your nose a weird habit? Picking your nose in front of others/in public may be a bit off, but I'm pretty sure that basically everyone picks their nose once in a while.

I guess I have several weird habits myself, but as for now I can only think of these two:

When I eat some food I really enjoy, I always remove a big mouthful of that food for me to eat at the last thing. Then, when I chew that mouthful of food, I focus on really enjoying the taste as much as possible.

I don't really like to dance or sing. But when I hear a really nice, catchy song, I do like to spin quickly around on my office chair (the faster the tempo of the music is, the faster I spin). It looks really weird and I find it a bit embarrassing, so I only do it when alone. :P

Oh, and I read One Piece. And I like to go for long walks and hiking which is really weird in a country where everybody else move around only in a car or (if they cannot afford a car, if they live in the larger cities with traffic jams, or if they want some exercise) on a bike.

i still pick my nose but not at WALGREENS.

Sometimes I feel my hands aren't moist enough and I have to make them wet somehow

Rookiee

When scrolling down a page, I usually position my cursor so that it's horisontal or vertical sides overlap horisontal or vertical lines on the webpage. If it's on a horisontal line, then I scroll down to see if it lands on another line further down.
Pretty random, but for some reason I've been doing this for years.

Demonicpoodle

Yay I like threads like these…

Can't really go to sleep unless I roll up in a cocoon in my blanket.
Jam to my music while I'm jogging -- as in, instead of using one hand to help me jog, I'll use one of them to tap to the beat -- to assure myself I'm in the zone.
I feel uncomfortable if I'm not constantly tapping my leg or my fingers. Honestly, this can make it really hard to read my laptop or a book, since it's shaking constantly.
I like to live life being happy and not letting corruption of government etc. cloud the big picture for me.

@Strelоk:

I post on Arlong Park Forums.

Oh, you. You so crazy.

I really don't like my beard hairs. The fact that they're so stiff and so much darker than my regular hair just…bothers me. It's for that reason that I pull them out one by one just about every day.

I get goosebumps if I touch papers if I think they're "too dry". Whenever I do, I feel a sudden urge to just drop them and not pick them back up.

This is one I just started doing recently: I tend to slip in and out of various British accents. I'll just start talking in my normal voice, and then say something in a Yorkshire, Cockney, or Scottish accent. Sometimes it's deliberate, sometimes it's accidental. Doing this enough times has taught me that I can actually do a bitchin' Jon Snow impression.

I love playing guessing games with people, even when there's no good reason for it. I guess I just enjoy leaving folks in suspense, or something along those lines.

LaCaSiNa

I do various things while I'm deep in thought - chew my lips, twirl pens, fiddle endlessly with my hair - but I guess one of the weirder things is that I sometimes rub the two moles on my forehead.

If I have to get up at night to use the bathroom, I don't put lights on anywhere. I retain my feeling of still being tired that way.

98% of the time I only use my index fingers when I type on a keyboard. Many of my friends have said that it looks silly.

I'm obsessed with having clean ears and use cotton buds several times a day. I also carry a piece of toilet paper or tissue with me so I can secretly wipe my ears if I feel they're dirty.

When I go to sleep, I wrap the blanket carefully around myself but pull it away from my stomach, chest and throat. I dunno, it feels kinda icky if something is constantly pressed against them.

Those are just some I came up with off the top of my head.

I can't stand hair inside a shirt, so before I put one on I always turn it inside out and hold it up to the light and make sure there isn't even one tiny little hair or fuzz.

@Gliblord:

Holy crap, I do the exact same thing. The dryness just irritates me, I don't know why.

Smiley

When i have my mouth dry, I use the tongue to moist the lips and then use the shirt to clean it again going in a repetive cycle.

It's because you and I are beings beyond men

No Maam

I mentioned this elsewhere but I have the habbit of rubbing my head/forehead against stuff to get sweat off when I'm realy sweaty, even walls or windshields.

I highlight text constantly when I'm reading on the inernet
I fart a lot

Not a Habit - an indication of digestive issues.

I practice debates or conversations when driving alone if there is nothing to listen to.

The former is sorta what I tend to do when I walk. I can't help but use my hands to match the beat, and sometimes I just flail my arms around like a maniac. So many people stop to see if I'm okay…

The latter might be an ADHD thing or a restlessness thing. I am almost completely incapable of staying still in any situation, so yeah.

@korobka: Yeah, I have a similar habit where I just pluck my hairs out all day and I feel really self-conscious because I'll have bald patches on my arms or legs or face and it makes me feel all awkward.

i cant stand it to be in the dark, i have to put on the lights in the room i am in. Even when Im watching a movie or gaming

It was a joke, and my farting issues have ended since I stopped eating cafeteria food and pizza constantly.

I have a similar habit, only that I can't stand open windows at night. I have to make sure that they're closed, or else I'll feel paranoid that someone is watching me.

Also, apparently I make this weird hyper-ghost sound whenever I get really happy/excited.

Silent K

I'm always fighting the urge to start fiddling with my hair and pens and wiggling and tapping my fingers on stuff or to start tilting my chair or randomly start sprinting when I'm outside because I always feel slightly restless and impulsive.

I do this, except I let the cursor rest on top or to the right of lines.

When playing games that don't have voice actors for characters, I read in the voices of characters that they remind me of (example: Chatot in Pokemon mystery dungeon has the voice of Zazu from the Lion King.)

It's always nice to know that I'm not the only ~~weirdo~~ person who is different out there.

I've thought of two more of the last few days.

I refuse to willingly kill anything anymore. Flies, roaches, spiders, ants, mosquitoes, silverfish. You name it. If I'm asked to kill it, I'll just pick up with a dust pan or trap it a cup and leave it outside.
This isn't a habit as much as it a strange personal preference: I'd much rather listen to bands than solo artists. Even if someone from a group I like does a solo record, I rarely take as much interest in it. There are exceptions, of course, but I definitely gravitate more towards bands about 4/5 times.

zachri

Sometimes if I do one thing, I have to do it in the other direction also (e.g. if I move something one way I gotta move it slightly the other way again)
It's a hard one to describe and it happens randomly.
There are times where I'm like '@ A @' if I can't.
I'm gonna have fun driving cause if I steer one way my mind will want me to steer the other way to give the wheel equal turning chances.

Lexiy

Zachri, seems you got OCD too.

Davy Jones

Agreed.

I'm started as fuck by lightning.

@Lexiy:

Well I be damned.
…probably true actually.
If I'm in a store and my mum puts something back in the wrong place, I freak out like 'Dude. Why did you put it there?!' and then I have to put it back in the normal pla e myself if it's close enough. [/flop]

Don't worry about it.

I do those things sometimes.

Ha, I do this stuff all the time.

Another habit of mine is excessive cleaning. I see a cup, a wrapper….anything that needs to be disposed of, I throw it out myself. Sad part is, things like this are the first things I scan for whenever I get home.

Don't get me started on washing dishes.

I live with my parents and two siblings, in a small apartment.

So any mess kinda stands out more for me.

Yeah it would - problem is when you move out. While siblings are family, if you move in with friends they don't stay friends. I'd recommend living with strangers if you're unable to live on your own. Being a neatness freak is always a tough place to be - others come to rely on you doing the cleaning because they know you can't leave it alone and they know you can't wait it out for them to do any cleaning.

Yeppers - now imagine someone doing it to you who isn't related by blood. I used to have friends that lived in the same unit complexe as I did they lived on the ground floor and I lived about 2 floors above them - they would let rubbish bags build up infront of their kitchen instead of taking them out to the bins. They ended up with 10 bags of rubbish including food waste and of course a rat somehow managed to get into their unit … they ended up naming the rat George and warning people who visited not to be freaked out by it. The rental agency ended up instigating a 2 monthly inspection on their unit - normally they are once every 6 months.
