Strange habits?

[RavingPenguin]

I doodle.. alot.. like alot alot. Most of it is illegible though.
I also have a habit of acting out glowstringing moves with my hands when I listen to "Rave" music. People think Im weird for flailing my arms about but I dont care.
I also, also have a habit of absolutely tuning out sound when Im deep in thought. Once a girl held a five minute conversation with me (one sided mind you) and I didnt hear a word of it because I was too busy thinking how the Axis powers could have won WWI.

I get nervous and weirded out when people stand to the right of me. If they are walking or sitting I don't mind so much. But I just hate it when they STAND. I mean...uggghhhh. If they stand to the left of me however, I am okay.

 

[Mardy]

I pop the left side of my jaw in and out of place whenever Im bored. Dosn't go far out and neither does it hurt anymore.

 

[Mr.Squishy]

i have this compulsion to take things apart and try to put them back together.

This. Times a thousand. Actually happened to me a day or two ago with my mp3. Managed to fix it though ^^

Also, I need to fiddle with something and/or put it into my mouth whenever I talk.

I also tend to show signs of OCD when it comes to spelling and correct grammar, as well as a couple of other things.

I dunno if this goes here, but I have this strange compulsion to be nice to the ridiculous, like I'm trying to achieve angel status ...

When I'm bored and nobodies around I see how long I can drone a sound.

Record - 42 seconds.

Whenever a car is coming up the opposite way I get a strange and very powerful urge to swerve in front of them and crash head on. I'm at least 'pretty' sure this isn't me wanting to kill myself, but we shall see.

I can't help myself when I've got a pen in my hand.
I draw over everything.

Ditto...especially when it's a new pen...it's like a whole new level of fun

 

[EeveeElectro]

I thank the cash machine XD
People think I'm nuts.

Also, doodling.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

I talk to myself...

I don't mean I have conversations, but I verbalize thoughts, it helps me keep my extremely scattered brain in order.

I get that feeling too, and I've often wondered the same thing, but I think it's just a nervous thing.....

I tend to compulsively rearrange my rearview mirror when I'm driving. Half the time, I reach up and play with it, and don't actually move it. I've no idea why I do it or how I got started on it, but it's to the point that I don't even realize I'm doing it most of the time.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Just realized another...

I think I have a bad memory... so often I will leave my house, walk about 10 feet, and turn back to ensure I locked the door. Same thing with my car, I triple click my lock... just in case I forgot.

I only sleep for 5 hours. Also when i really want something i almost never give up.

I would never consider these things bad habits or weird. Admirable traits!

Except for the whole sleep deprivation thing.

I have to do the same thing with both my palms. That means if I put something in one hand I have to put it in the other in the exact same way. This symmetry thing gets to the point where, if I'm not doing anything with my hands for a while, I've got this system to make sure I get my fix - under each nail with each finger, each crease in each finger with each nail, then all of my fingers over the surface of my palm. Yeah, that's pretty wierd I guess.
I also something silently mouth something I've just said, as though I'm checking with myself that I said what I meant to. I don't notice doing this very much any more though.

For some it isn't deprivation. If I get more than 6 hours of sleep I am a total mess the next day. My wife has to have at least 8. My grandmother never slept more than 6 hours either.

Huh. Learn somethin' new every day. I need at least 6 hours every day to be functional. 8-10 to be fully cognizant all day.

I quote the kool-aid guy in my sleep...

 

[Drakmorg]

I consistently eat the skin around my fingernails. Pretty much anytime my hands aren't occupied with something I'll nibble a little bit off. Unfortunately this leaves the tips of my fingers looking like crap and they occasionally bleed.

 

[OrenjiJusu]

i draw on my self/my walls, eat random peice of things from pens or anything i have to hand. and i occasionally just end up biting my finger or licking my moustache.....
