Share your addictions and minor things you just HAVE to do

- I bite the inside of my chin, like in really twisting my mouth to get to those hard-to-reach-deep places

I talk to myself if I'm alone and no one can hear me..

I talk to myself AAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL the time, when I'm alone.

Sometimes people hear me.

Keith will come in sometimes and go "Who the hell are you talking to?!" Like just then... I just did it. I literally said "Who the hell are you talking to" out loud.

Which brings me to my next point... when I'm typing stuff out, sometimes I repeat what it is that I'm typing... or *reading* for that matter... especially if I think it's funny.

Chances are if you see me posting... I've talked out loud regarding the posts I'm responding to and/or what I'm writing at least 9 out of the 10 times.

I also get really bad anxiety. Most of the time for no reason. It's really a pain in the ass.

I do ALL of this, too...except, I don't limit talking to myself to when I'm alone; I do it at work too. But it's okay, they all think I'm crazy for so many other reasons that talking to myself hardly matters...

My daddy talked to himself, too--he always said "sometimes, that's the only way you can get intelligent conversation."

I forgot to mention crack!

 

[momo3boys]

Oooooh.. yep. Me too.

That's actually coupled with the "swallowing air" thing that I do.

I have scars on the inside of both cheeks from biting so much. :shock:

A lot of people don't realize I have it as bad as I do though, because I'm really good at hiding it in public... however that makes it worse for Keith to deal with later, haha.

I have all of that too! Except the swapping air part. My dentist keeps yelling at me for biting my cheeks, she thinks it's a sign of stress.

I am very musical and I HAVE to have music on ALL the time. ND if I'm walking I HAVE to walk to the beat.

I also don't like to step on cracks, but noy on the sidewalk. I don't seem to care in parking lots or roads.

I like to be symmetrical. If I rub one toe I havd to rub the same one on the other side. If I clean one finger I have to clean the same one on the other side..

I use copious amounts of honey in my tea every morning. (I've never liked coffee)

I like to feel the pages of whatever book I'm reading. I collect old books just to feel the old papers.

I'm completely carefree when it comes to germs. I only wash my hands before I cook, after the bathroom and if I touch raw meat. If I'm working in the garden I just rinse them off in my water collector.

I never get flu shots or other generally unnecessary vaccines. I've also never had the flu and my entire house is considered to be one of the healthiest that most people know.

I love my chainsaw. I will ask friends for excuses to use it. This winter storm is providing my with lots of opportunities.

My tv addictions are Glee, NCIS, NCIS LA, the mentalist, and Hawaii 5-0.

I will stay in bed when I need to pee, tossing and turning for hours when I know that if I just got up and went I could have been sleeping for those hours! But I never learn...

If I have had a nightmare or watched a scary show I will ask someone to follow me up/down stairs because I don't like the idea of being alone

You smoke crack?

That's not the crack I was hoping she was referring to. But, then again, it could be smokin' hot.

 

[paul85224]

Crack kills.

 

[mommy-medic]

Crack is whack.

The toilet paper must not come from the bottom/back of the roll. It comes from the front/top or I fix it. Immediately.

I also fold all bath towels a certain way every single time.

I used to have CDO. It was like OCD but alphabetized.

 

[Trever1t]

yeah the paper MUST come from over the top, any other way is just UNCIVILIZED!!!

Reminds me of Gulliver's Travels and the proper way to eat a boiled egg...but there really is only one way.

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

I :heart: DDR

I was QUITE good at it too!

We have a Duplex (92 years old), and live in the Up unit. We were renovating the lower unit, and paid a lot to redo the plaster ceiling in the lower unit.
Too much DDR cracked that ceiling and a big section of plaster came crashing down.

We then turned a room in the lower unit into our game room. Now we have a tennant, and I have no place to DDR




I also love SingStar and RockBand :lmao:

I also love Neil Diamond songs.

Straight Kentucky Bourbon is the best liquid on this planet.

The Swine is Fine. If I could eat but one animal it would be the pig.

I like most the meat closest to the bone.

I must always be reading some type of book...fiction, non-fiction, biography, doesn't matter.

Dogs are the best animals on this planet. They love unconditionally...until they bite you in the face for pissing them off.

My wife has trained me well....I always put the toilet seat down (some battles are not worth fighting).

I am a cyclist and my favorite time to ride is when it is ridiculously hot outside. I don't generally like ridiculously hot temperatures at any other time. Weird.

can't think of much else.

 

[MissCream]

And by crack I mean Mozzarella sticks, I am addicted to them, with hot sauce!


Oh and I won't eat meat off the bone either, yuckkkkkkk!

I refuse to get a flu shot every year, and laugh at those who get them.....and wind up getting the flu.

I must shower before bed, or wash my feet at the very least.

I love the smell of coffee, but cannot stand the taste.

When arriving in a hotel, I pull the comforter off the bed and lay it on the floor.

I buy books at Barnes and Noble or Amazon, don't bother reading them and leave them in the shrink wrap, hoping it will preserve them somehow.

I insist on doing my own laundry.

I typically don't like my food touching, but figure it's all going to end up in the same place anyway.

I wash my hands at least 12-15 times a day, especially after handling money, pumping gas, before or after eating something, or generally when I am stressed about something.

I must chew gum as often as possible, probably to reduce stress, but mainly because I HATE bad breath!!!!

Canned goods in my pantry are typically sorted out by type, in neat rows from front to back, much like the way they are on grocery store shelves.

Toliet paper must be folded to be of any use at all.

I typically only drive with the windows rolled down in the forest, and often leave them rolled up with the fan blower on interior air circulate when driving on freeways.

Thank goodness we cleared that up.......

 

[paul85224]

I also leave the toliet seat down....and have for as long as I can remember.

When eating corn on the cobb, I cannot eat it directly and must slice it off with a knife for consumption.
