The title says it all. If this is a repeated thread, I will ask a mod to lock it. If spammed, I will ask a mod to lock it.


My weirdest habits are....

saying "Dammit" a lot,
imitating people from video games and movies,
and um... I guess that's it.

Is a habit not something done unintentionally? Sneaker-selectiveness is very intentional...

It's both opinion and just the effect of my selective weirdness.


Didn't say it was a habit, I was just listing my weirdness because most tend to be habits, though they aren't really, they're just strange things I do for some reason =(
i like to pull my leg so my foot can touch my head, and it doesn't hurt.

That's actually pretty cool XP

The TV Volume must be on an even number or end in a multiple of 5.


That's OCD, and pickiness.

I only eat Oatmeal for breakfast, and usu.


That's just pickiness.

So really, only the last 2 are habits.

It's probably biting my finger nails and chewing my fingers... These nails haven't been cut with a nail cutter in 4 YEARS!!!

Turning the light off every time I leave a room, even if other people are in there.

I don't get how people can bite their nails O_O

Also @ Ernie15
Besides the fact that it's annoying you attempt to point everything 'wrong' out for unknown reasons...it's not just 'ickiness', anymore.

Habit
An acquired behavior pattern regularly followed until it has become almost involuntary: the habit of looking both ways before crossing the street.

Is looking both ways involuntarily then when you start? These things are voluntary at the start, but are now permanently part of the way I 'function'.

Well, a weird one of my habits is closing the toilet lid after going to the bathroom. I suppose it's to keep germs from flying out...

Oh yes, I do that sometimes.

So you eat oatmeal, select sneakers, and do that volume thing without knowing?

I don't think you quite understand. We're not talking about reactions, reflexes, or lapses in 'time' where you are unaware of what you are doing, we're talking about habits.

Like I said, when you cross the street, you know you turn your head side to side, you do it automatically, but it's not necessarily involuntarily, it's just something you are used to, and would probably feel weird if you 'forgot' to do it.
Habits aren't always involuntary, they're just things you do, maybe accidentally to begin with, and get used to doing, like routines, but not quite so strict =o

My habit is to pick my nose a lot...um, joking.
So beside the finger chewing habits, if I'm eating while ready, I sometimes absentmindedly chew a fork, or spoon.

Umm I tear my fingernails a lot. I don't bite them but I kind of tear the nails with my other fingers.
I tug my earlobe randomly a lot. I don't know why.
I chew my pencil erasers a lot when I'm thinking and trying to write. I have ruined tons of perfectly good erasers that way
Tapping my foot. I don't know why, maybe it's because my ankles are double jointed. I don't know why, either. I just tap the floor a lot and annoy people that way.
