Your weirdest habits?

Post » Mon May 14, 2012 4:04 am

My current glasses don't fit very well, I actually have to push them up so often that even when I'm wearing contacts, I sometimes catch myself starting to "push up my glasses" even though they're not on.
Lol! I do the same thing! Though I don't have contacts. Its when I swim, or I dont have my glasses on for any reason, I'll reach up to push them, then poke the bridge of my nose and realize theyre not there >_>
Oh, my God, my son does this. He can't sit still for 5 minutes. He stands when He eats, He uses spoons for everything. If He sits in a char with wheels the chair is everywhere but where He is sitting. For example, my computer desk is in the living room next to the recliner. If he is sitting at the computer desk doing homework he will swoosh the chair around and smack the recliner with it. When you yell at him to sit he replies with, 'I am.' But if you look at him he'll have one foot on the chair and the other foot on the floor and he's standing all hunched over the desk. Irritates the crap out of me.
xD This reminded me of something, i'll post below this. I used to do the same thing with chairs that moved, (still do sometimes) and i LOVE the ones that have the rotating part that you sit on, because then you can just twirl all day and go really fast and get dizzy :D
The main thing that got me to try to sit down more, we were at a nice restaurant, and I was standing beside my chair, which was by my dad's and he asked me to sit down, because it was embarrassing him :| Looking back on it, I can see why that would be so embarrassing. At the time, I just never thought of it. So then, any time we were out in public I would sit down, and eventually the habit of sitting merged into our house, now I sit on chairs xD

That said, at home I usually http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5hY750OXeek/Tdyo7dVK_AI/AAAAAAAAAMY/fEwp42aeT5Q/s1600/L___Death_Note_by_Crimmy_kun.jpg (I didn't pick this up from him, I've been doing this for YEARS! It just shows how much of a genius i am :D)

I am perfectly happy wearing my socks inside out. I just put them on as I have taken them off to wash (so often they alternate being inside out and the right way).

Peanut butter. I have my own jar. If anyone else uses that jar, I have to buy a new one.
I just hate to have stray crumbs and spreads and possibly saliva mixed in with that goodness.

i keep my cutlery, cups and plates in the fridge in case an insect touches them. if i witness an insect touching them, they go straight in the bin without question

i scan the carpet daily and if i see even a speck of a crumb i will go berserk and vacuum the whole house (including the walls) yet when i smoke inside, i ash on the carpet and rub it in with my foot. i dont own an ashtray because i cant stand ashtrays with ash in them. its filthy!

i often make strange noises and laugh at them to entertain myself. perfectly normal behaviour for a 30 year old

I always smell if the glass is clean at home. Even though I just too it out of the washing machine, that I put on 50 minutes ago, and the glass is still hot.

Took me about 5 minutes to realize you were talking about a dishwasher. And not shovelling random pieces of glass into your washing machine, which would seem like a bad idea.

Whenever I open a fridge and close it, I always walk back and push the fridge door again to make sure its completely closed.

This is something that I should do with our freezer as the door has a habit of not shutting properly. Sadly, I don't, and it's usually only discovered hours later by my other half when she finds half the contents have defrosted. Oops.

Did you know there is a biological reason for why we are driven to pick our noses and why you will even see children try to *gasp* eat their pickings ?

From what I have learned about the subject it is a matter of strengthening your immune system. If you have read the studies by Friedrich Bischinger you probably wouldn't find it so weird but the basic gist of it is that germs get caught in your nasal mucus and then the nasal mucus will dry up weakening the germs to a point where they pose little threat to the human body if it gets exposed to them, but rather giving the body time to develop a defense against those germs and any germs seeking to mimic those.

Of course many people will find it disgusting and stop eating it as they grow better into the mold of our current societal rules but the fact remains that we are still designed to pick our noses.

ARGH! I hate these stickers! I always have to peel off any and all stickers on my cases of anything.

If I managed to get it off in one piece, I had to fold the sticker perfectly in half so that there was absolutely no sticky edge, then usually fold it again as many times as possible, then bin it.
I always gotta fold the sticky side in half, trying to line up the left and right side to match up evenly in the middle before I tear it off.

Bugs my friends to watch me go at those stickers they always tell me just to tear it off, when I watch them open stuff they just nonchalantly rip the label off then spend just as much time as I do while they go after those little fringe pieces they missed. Often they're too busy with that to notice I'm giving them the stink eye for not trying to get it off in one piece.

Oh that was a priceless misplacement of a word XD I of course meant to write "eating" not "growing" there. Gonna go fix that right now.

Please excuse this and I'm sure its "T.M.I", but if I can possible help it I won't leave the house in the morning before I....ahem....do "number two". I hate using public restrooms for that purpose and I try to avoid the possibility of that if I can (especially if I'm traveling - in my town I've actually returned home to do the deed).

Like I said, T.M.I..

*reading thru the new pages of the thread*

...I have issues with always needing to wear slippers in most of the house, too, rugs or solid flooring - partly because I have cats but also just the fact I can't stand having dirty feet - if I walk around barefoot before bed, even in the house, I have to wash my feet. Dirty feet+bed=grossout. :)
...most of the time my neat-freak stuff isn't too bad, but I can become obsessed with things. I don't mind clutter too much, but I hate dirt/dust because I have bad allergies (nose and skin).
...the dishes in the dishwasher have to be placed "just so" (a certain way/order) and I still pre-wash them.
