Strange habits

What is your strangest habit?

Mine is probably the fact that I often grab a small ice-pack and put it under the pillowcase before I go to bed. I tend to get very warm in the night, so it gives one of my pillows an instant-cold part, which I find nice indeed - was particularly handy in the recent heat-wave!

I like to pick my nose and my arse

Chewing the inside of my mouth.

I often sleep curled up in a ball at the top corner of my bed.

I rub my face with the back of my hand (unawares) when I'm anxious , it's very soft.

I hawk greeners.

I brush my front teeth more, because they show.

I also like to drink tea while in the bath. From a cup, not from the bath.

I'd say that's quite a nice combination actually!

I'm right-handed, but at night after my wife and kids are asleep, I seem to use the computer mouse with my left hand for some reason.

Just as I'm nodding off to sleep my body will do a weird jolt thing. I'm half conscious I've done it. But my boyfriend always gives me a little squeeze when it happens and I fall asleep smiling.

Wow, reading that back made me cringe.

OP, that's genius! Mine is probably talking to myself while trying to solve unusual problems. My thought process is rather rapid, meaning that I essentially stare into space muttering seemingly unrelated sentence fragments, mostly along the lines of If I did this...but then he'd do that...and I forgot to factor in this...of course, that's it!...but that would never work...
For some reason people say its disconcerting.

one of my strange habits, I have many, is that when Im having a bowl of cereal, I can only use milk from an unopened container.

Even if there is only a little bit gone out of one, I must open a fresh one. Oh and I hate milk jugs. Wont use one.

Drives himself nuts

I hold my breath going past graveyards, even it means basically going blue in the face!

Had a weird thing since I was child where I thought I would breathe in the ghosts. It must work because, as far as I know, I haven't breathed one in yet!! :P

Yeah my boyfriend does that. I just dig him in the ribs, freaks me out !! I can't have my breathing restricted at all so it bothers me when he's struggling to breath!

I drink so much from 2 litre bottles (cheaper) that I now have marks on my hands from pressure of the neck digging into them.
Might count as a habit.

It's sleep apnea and it can be fatal, go to a doc.

Sir Osis of Liver.

A colleague of mine eats his earwax and snot.
Hes been pulled up on it numerous times by management and colleagues but still wont stop.
He starts tucking in after his breaks in the canteen(dessert) and doesnt give a fcuk whos watching him either.
He alternates between his nasal/aural orifices sucking the contents from his fingertip like a chef would a fine sauce.
People have become so used to it ,nobody bats an eyelid.
The dirty bollix.

I like to click the mouse buttons constantly, really fast.
I'm always doing it with my 2 fingers. I always find a blank part in the screen when reading something, or when watching a movie etc and just clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick

Oh god I'd kill you for that!

maximoose

When running across the road I do this weird "ay-yay-yay" (think frustrated Italian) to myself in time with my footsteps

I noticed it a while ago, tried to stop, then started doing it ironically when I couldn't stop, and now it's here to stay.

Love2love

Can't eat with a door / window open. I think it make food taste different. Especially eggs ands bread. I can eat outside no problem though!

And I turn the shower on about 10 minutes before I get in so the room steams up nicely. Won't be doing this for much long when the charges come in!

Pick the fluf out of my naval and make little jumpers from it.

truebluesac

As soon as i wake up in the morning i let the most almighty fart . I really think next door can hear them they are that loud , must be building up the gas all night long. This started about a year or 2 ago

When I sneeze, I always shout "fuck" at the same time.

I avoid that awkward air trap in the end of a condom by popping a little pin hole in the end.
Works lads,try it.

I can only do a number 2 when I take my top off, easy when at home but when I am out and about I have to search for a toilet that has a coat hook

As for my odd habbit - I sometimes make myself a cup of tea and a cup of coffee at the same time, drinking a sup of one, then a sup of the other:D

I pick scabs have ruined three tattoos by picking the scabs off but I cant help it.

I pick scabs, even scabs that form on tattoos. Disgusting but I cant help it.

ulinbac

Unlike the guys who twitch when going to sleep, I do it when getting up.

Basically when I am ready to get out of bed (or within a few mins of waking) my whole body shakes, sometimes quite vigourous and lasts for about 5 seconds. Feels like the body loosening up but never asked a doc. Sometimes happens during the day when tired but control it.

Scared an ex before the first morning in bed !!

Only happens at home, because it'd look weird anywhere else. :pac:

I pour out the tube of Smarties, separate them into their colours and then eat the colour with the most amount of Smarties, to the least. :P

When eating Crunchies, I always have to eat all of the chocolate off first before the honeycomb. ;P

Those Loveheart sweets with the little things written on them, I'll never eat any that says 'I love you'. I have to either give them to someone else or throw them away.

Luap

I always put on socks before my underpants!

BeerWolf

Got this habit of pulling my t-shirt's neck collar over my nose while watching TV or playing a game on the 360... or pulling the base of my t-shirt for no reason... :pac:

No idea why I do it
