I have an obsession with wiping my nose. I carry a tissue with me wherever I go and unless my nose feels 100% dry I will feel like it may as well be a waterfall. I even carry one when I go for nights out to clubs.

 

I can't drink from a bottle or glass that somebody else has drank from. Even family, if my dad drinks from my glass, I'll either throw the drink away or let him have it all. The same goes with using forks/spoons that other people have taken a bite with.

 

I also have a favourite spoon which I always use instead of the others. It's different from the rest of the spoons in the set but I can't remember where it comes from. I even brought it to university with me.

If I sit still for more than 5 minutes my mind wanders so I'm constantly shifting around in my seat.

If I have a pen in my hand and I'm not writing then I'm twiddling it.

I don't button the top button of my lab coat because I think it looks bad.

I eat the top half of an apple, before eating the bottom half.

I eat each different part of my meals seperate (say a steak pie, I'd eat the pie then move onto the potatoes and then the carrots). I've got a kind of hierachy in my head (which to be honest I hadn't noticed until I started typing this out) of the order in which I eat each part, carrots always being last. I don't do this for every meal exactly, I'd still eat a curry and rice together for example, I guess it's just meals where the seperate ingredients are obvious.

 

And when I'm having dinner at home, I normally drink my whole glass of water or juice before I start eating, even if I'm not thirsty, then get up halfway through to refill it. I don't really know why I do it, force of habit I guess.

I do the same when eating. For example, when I have a sunday roast, I'll eat the parsnips first, then carrots, then cabbage, then brussells, then broccoli, then I leave the meat until last. The best part of meal is always left until last. It is the lasting memory you have of it so it has to end well.

Yeah, I go the other way about. I eat the best thing first then leave the worst stuff till last. Probably goes back to when I was little when my sister and I would find ways of getting rid of the nasty stuff (cabbage/sprouts etc) without my parents knowing, like hiding it in the fruitbowl until they'd done the washing up then slinging it in the bin. Absolutely daft looking back on it and I can eat most of the stuff now anyway so it's pretty much just habit.

I seem to involuntarily bounce my knees when sitting, much to the annoyance of everyone when I was at school. I have no idea if this is a side-effect of medication or if it's just something I do. I'm going with the second because it gives me more peace of mind.

That's pretty common actually, most people grow out of it but urges do sometimes occur.

 

An obsession of mine would probably be... drinking things in the wrong container. I'd drink orange juice quite happily out of a bowl, or wine glass ;o

 

I hate typos, and grammatical errors. I always feel like bringing a pen to correct them. "This company does not except cheques"

I wash utensils before I use them.

I don't like foods that stain, such as mashed potatoes, to touch other foods.

-I cannot sit still.

-I chew my fingernails.

-My mind constantly wanders off.

I eat the whole apple. Except for the stem.

A lot of people think that's weird.

If something can be taken apart and put back together again, I will take take it apart and put it back together again, repeatedly

I do all the above, sometimes pretty annoying if people take offence. Also I have to wash my hands and not touch anything else before I eat food that I have to handle.

You guys are crazy! A meal is meant to be eaten as one piece, not carefully dissected.

This is me in my free time.

 

I bite my nails. Constantly.

Hello, Me.

Yup. I'd rather bite my nails than cut them off with a nail clipper.

 

Highlighting text as I read it on the computer.

I do this too. It annoys everyone who reads over my shoulder when I'm on the computer.

 

Also, when I highlight text, if I miss the beginning of a paragraph and highlight like the second line down, I have to highlight the second line up from the bottom.

 

Others:

I use to always have to have something in my mouth when I was on the computer. Like, there was a pen cap that I always kept around and chewed on. It's not so bad anymore, but if I found that pen cap, it would be in my mouth in a second. :3

 

When I walk on a sidewalk, I step over the cracks with alternating feet. Like, I step over with my right foot, then with my left foot. I skip/hop a lot because my stride is not the length of any sidewalk in my town.

 

I play with my watch if I'm bored. The side with the clasp on it is empty in the middle because it's broken off.

If I have a pen in my hand and I'm not writing then I'm twiddling it.

 

My Chem teacher does this, where he holds the pen at the end, between thumb and the two next fingers, and flicks his middle finger to spin the pen, catches and repeats.

 

I learnt how to do it, so I now do the same.

I do this as well. Obsessively.

When I was first learning, my English teacher fired a lazer. XD Doesn't help sitting in the front row.

Tourettes, I suppose.

 

But that's more like one big collection of annoying habits.

My hands always need to be occupied while standing.

I am either way too talkative or way too quiet.

My hair goes through several transformations on a daily basis.

Me too. Honestly, so many little things I do from having it, way too many to go into detail about them. :|

As posted on the Things That Annoy The HELL Out Of You thread, I have developed the habit of drumming/tapping on things to the beat of 'The Sound of Drums' (4 rhythmic beats) when I'm bored. >.>

I always pull my hair when I go to sleep. When I wake up the next morning it's always a tangled mess <_<

 

When I talk, not only do I speak, but my hands do certain motions as well. It looks kind of odd when you think about it, but for some reason I keep doing it.

 

Also, I'm only talkative if others speak to me. Otherwise, I don't speak that much. But when I do, I always get carried away...

I chew on my pens. Way too much.

 

I'm gonna say it. I misread that as penis.

 

I guess I bite my nails a lot. :\

Whenever I listen to music, I unconsciously dance/move around to the beat, all the while imagining an epic fight scene to go along with the song.

 

I STILL daydream about dual-wielding keyblades. On a regular basis. :thumbup:

 

Sometimes I mix the two habits together.
