Strange Habits/Idiosyncrasies

[unknown]

in a further effort for us all to become uncomfortably familiar with each other, now we shall discuss our strange habits, idiosyncrasies, eccentricities and other bizarre things that if displayed on a first date would guarantee no possibility of a second date. This thread may be a bad idea, but we'll see where it goes.

I prefer to eat pretty much all of my food with a fork and knife. I'm serious. Pizza, bagel with peanut butter, ribs, corn...gotta be with utensils. My mom said my grandfather did the same thing, and it must be a male thing that runs in the family.

Heh, I have two really bad habits, which kind of go hand in hand (haha funny considering what im talking about). First, I have this weird fixation with having to smell my hands. Like if I touch something, say a candle, I smell the fingertip of my index finger and thumb. I do it kind of in a sly way though, I act like I'm rubbing the bottom part of my nose. Second, if they smell weird or smell as if I need to wash them, I wash them. I'm mildly OCD about my hands. I wash them all the time. I cannot stand to touch anything I own with dirty hands. I can't eat without washing my hands. Even if I go to a club, and I touch the doorhandle to open the door to walk in, and I get a little bit of alcohol on my hand, instead of just licking it off no matter WHERE it touched, I have to go wash my hands.

My guitarist friend always does that. Whenever he is sitting down and bored or waiting for something, he just starts acting like he is playing a miniature guitar

I am almost always moving my feet and legs, usually tapping them on the floor.

I narrate my life in my head sometimes.

I always try to smoke a cigarette in my left hand. It bugs me when I have to hold it with my right.

I say things in odd ways, such as saying joo instead of you or yeah-huh instead of yeah.

I quote things all the time.

I do the air guitar thing also. Air drums as well.

There are more, but I can't think about them.

I do that.

I often think in the form of message board posts. Maybe I spend too much time here.

Sweet, I'm a bit OCD too. I used to be worse about the hand-washing thing when I was younger (i.e. washing my hands before eating ANYTHING), but these days I'll settle for just wiping my fingers off on my shirt if I haven't been touching a lot of stuff lately. I think I may have gone through a phase of smelling my hands, but I rarely do that anymore.

The thing that bothers me the most is having grease on my hands. I can't stand the idea of spreading that stuff all over everything I touch. It really sucks when I'm out at my mom and stepdad's house, because no one there gives a shit about washing their hands, and there's usually a coating of grease on every doorknob, table, and counter in the house. So I usually wash my hands about 10 times a day when I'm out there.

Another thing I obsess over is the ass odor that people leave on seats. I seem to notice it more than anyone else does, and I can often tell when I've been 'contaminated' by someone else's odor, as it will follow me around wherever I go, and leave itself on other seats I use. If I'm sitting down in a seat that lots of other people use, I usually try to sit in the corner of it, or if it's a sofa, in between the cushions. About two years ago, I started habitually leaving one of my used shirts on my computer chair so that my chair doesn't accumulate odor; I still do that to this day.

I never shake the piss off the end of my cock, instead I use toilet paper, and dab it off.

I sniff my fingers whenever I touch something.
