Weird habits...

[Plastic Jesus]

Do you have any?

When I'm driving, with my left hand, I use fingers to tap the yellow and white lines on the street. So if I'm in a passing road, dashed yellow line, I will tap my finger to the beat of the passing yellow dashes. If it is a solid yellow line then I keep my finger down, but if it changes to the other side i will tap that finger. I do it whenever I drive...

When I'm stressed I count things, and I pronounce words backwards, like playing a record backwards. Sdrawkcab.

I'm also obsessed with downloading anime theme songs.

Often when I see a word I will see if I can shuffle the letters around and make some words out of it. Examples:

algebra = bare gal
cannabis = I ban cans
encyclopedia = open cycle aid

For most words that are at least six or seven letters, it is possible to break the word down into two or more smaller words like that.

In cali license plates are formatted as #LLL###, if the license is like 5BOT386, i'll be like B= Big O=Ol' T=Tits or whatever, but i always find something to say.

Seen on Futurama last night: Welcome to Kyoto! The Tokyo for people who love anagrams!

I do a similar thing but I try to figure out a word that has the letters in it in the right order.. NUS 420 Nausea It sucks because sometimes I can't think of a word...

Cool!

I am also very weird about the number of things I have. I don't like to only have 1 of a lot of things. I will often times buy an extra something for no reason other than I want 2. Or if I get a 3rd, I have to have a fourth. I don't like having odd numbers of things... unless it is 1. If I have an odd number of something I am collecting it will irritate me. My favorite number is 35. It bothers me that it is an odd number, but I justify it being my favorite number because both numbers surround "4" and there average is "4" and combined they are "8".

my saying, "If it's free, gimme three!!!!"

[higher4hockey]

i rub my feet together before i go to sleep a lot. it drives girls nuts.

the last girl i dated pointed this out. i don't close my eyes when i smooch most of the time, but every time i take a drink of beer, i close my eyes.

[Purple Banana]

I blink whenever I'm counting those white dotted lines on highways.

If I'm looking at an object, such as a countertop or a garage door opener, I imagine what it would be like if I were tiny and lived on that spot for my life, just to see the perspective from it.

I count stairs every time.

I ALWAYS keep a pair of chopsticks in my car, so if I'm in traffic, I drum out to a song while I'm crawling along.

When I'm walking down a hallway, and I don't want to say hi to some stranger (company policy), I look up at the ceiling in an interested way. Sometimes they look, too.

When I'm eating something crumbly, I rub my index and middle fingers against my thumbs briskly until ALL of the crumbs are off. I do this with kief, too. But I save the kief :)

For other oddies and nonsense, read my "Synesthetes Unite!" thread... :P

I went through a phase for a while where I would spell out almost every word I heard in my head it was really wierd. I couldn't stop for some reason but it just kind of stopped one day.

[MOBABN]

no matter what or where i am if im gonna put ketchup or mustard on a sandwhich or buger, the first squirt always has to be in the trash can or sink. I will never let the first squirt touch my damn food ever!!!!!!!!!!

[Mrs. Greenjeans]

Yeah, I hate musquirt and catslop too. I do the same thing.

[higher4hockey]

LOL! I was thinking that too. Good thing we all have each other to talk to. I don't think "normal" people would have anything to do with us.:D

haha for real, my friends think im nutty, they are all alcoholics and hate the herb. You guys are my buds that understand!! :thumbsup:

[BizzleLuvin]

when my leg hair is stubbly i like to run the back of oldwrists and my fingernails up and down the stubble. it just feels good.
also, i apply, wipe off and reapply chapstick incessantly. i dont like having chapstick on my lips thats more than a half an hour old. i like the feeling and flavor of a new coat of lip balm. so i'll apply a layer, smooth it around for a while then wipe it off an do it again.

[Pezzo]

there called OCD mate, i got loads of those lol

[Reefer Rogue]

I like sitting with my legs crossed.

[Plastic Jesus]

when i walk down the hall in my apartment, the lights at the individual doorways make these arrow shaped shadow patterns on the floor. I dare not walk on them...

[Plastic Jesus]

I blink whenever I'm counting those white dotted lines on highways.

It pisses me off when the two lines are going nicely... then the dumbass that did the striping got lazy and all of a sudden the lines don't match up... It's like they switch a half a line over all of a sudden the right line becomes the left.. and there is a new random right line all of a sudden... fuck!!! My fingers get confused...

[Matt the Funk]

When in cars I move my head side to side when telephone poles appear, infact, I have a lot of weird little games like that.

[BabyFacedAbortion]

I run past my basement door which is at the bottom of my stairs every night 'cause I'm scared someone broke in and is waiting for me to walk by then RAWWR they jump out and try to steal me. (paranoia here..not OCD)

[delusionsofNORMALity]

.... I don't think "normal" people would have anything to do with us.:D
the truly frightening thing is that we actually are the normal ones.


the only one of my habits that i find weird is that i constantly count off the number of second between my car and the next when i'm driving in traffic.

[BoilerUp]

Whenever I get stressed I like to clean and organize. Like I have a bunch of hockey cards that I collected when I was 8 and whenever I get really stressed I just pour them on the floor and start organizing them into books that I keep them in.

All of my media collection is organized by alphabet and every cabinet is organized by type. I can't really ever keep a pencil in an electronics drawer..

I also tend to get really irritated if someone cleans for me, even if it is just throwing away an empty coke can.

I'm an aggressive driver... usually trying to pass.. so the count is usually less than one...

[Willard_420]

OCD runs major in my family but only in minor ways...

My placemat has to be evenly in front of me, if it isn't, I move it.

When I come home, I check to make sure every cat is there (my mom runs a cat adoption thing, and we've got like 15 of them :()

Knives that are places on napkins on table settings must have the side with blade faced AWAY from me, if it isn't, I fix it.


Yeah... I guess we're all pretty fucked up one way or another.

[Professor Dan K.]

i have a weird one that bugs the shit outta me sometimes. I notice that if someone is talking or telling a story to a few people (me included) and im looking at them, when they look at me i look away, i dont even try to do it, its almost like coincedence we both turn our heads at the same time.

i flip a pencil around my fingers when im bored, like snapping my fingers, but with a pencil between them, really cool so it rotates around my hand and back into position. i can do it with almost anything

i tend to get pissed off when i cant accomplish something, i think i need a new skateboard because of this lol.

i really like looking at shoes online and in stores and stuff.

i also rub my feet together when im about to fall asleep, like playing footsie with myself

sometimes when im nervous or passing people in the halls, i rub or scratch my face

this one is hard to describe... i like move my teeth back and forth and bite down rapidly (like grinding but not that heavily) to beats of songs, and sometimes i make up a freestyle of my own.... probably not good for my teeth

thats all i can think of for now, peace and no shame people

[Splifted]

It bugs the shit out of me to be in a room with the door open. If i'm about to go to sleep, I make sure to close all the doors in my room: closet, bathroom, etc. Dunno why, i never had the "monsters in the closet" fear as a kid so its not that (in fact, wouldn't that make you wanna have an open door?).

Also, if i'm walking down a sidewalk, i subconsciously try to avoid the lines in the cement, like taking longer or shorter strides to step over them. Strange thing is i never mean to do it, i just start lol.

I have a manual transmission so both my hands and feet are busy.

Hehehe, I always keep drum sticks and my bongos in my car. I also have a bamboo flute and some goat toes as a rattle. I jam out at every single red light, and when I'm not driving too fast. ;)

[Pezzo]

^^^ that sounds kwl man i mite do that lol

[CanaDanKs Inc.]

Oh yea one more thing...

When I get a drink and there's ice in it, I ALWAYS take care of the ice before I get to the bottom. I hate when there's a bunch of ice at the bottom of your glass and you try to sip the rest of your drink and the ice all falls on YA FOICE!

:p
