I must begin walking on a floor surface with my left foot and end with my right foot.

Don't know why, that just seems to happen and always has, or it annoys me.

I only touch food with my left hand, unless I have to use my right.

I have a habit of overanalyzing useless data.
If I hit someone with a dictionary is that physical, or verbal assault?

I take a lot of walks and often find small toys abandoned on the ground....PVC soldiers and other figures, board game pieces, golf balls, chessmen Christmas ornaments, etc. Very often I'll pocket them and take them home, "rescue" them, if you like.

Whenever I have a can of soda, I dent the front of it with my thumb. I started doing this as a teenager to distinguish my sodas from the rest of the family and I never stopped doing it.

I'm always either wearing a shirt or wrapped in a blanket, since my back gets itchy if nothing's covering it.
Play The Hayseed Knight. This isn’t self promotion, I just really like the game.

You ever realize that the two longest pieces of literature in existence are both fanfics? Weird right?

I occasionally use my middle finger to type. I also like to pace when I think.
I have ideas and I occasionally put them down.

I know it's weird, but I like to put mustard on my burgers, rather than hot dogs.

...and I put mustard on French fries. I started doing it at bars when I'd have an order of fried and my buds would eat them all. I discovered, if I put mustard on the fries, though, they'd shrink back in revulsion and I could eat them without provoking a feeding frenzy. Eventually, I came to like the taste.

There was mystery bread/cake thing at my old high school that i put mustard on (i think it was carrot cake). The first time was an accident but it actually tasted good. The cake was sweet and the mustard was sour and the opposite taste went well together.

Don’t know if it’s that weird, but I always like eating eggs with ketchup, and no matter where I get it, I always need jalapeños on my burger

I can remember strange but uneventful for anybody else events from my childhood. Like one time we went out for breakfast with my grandparents while we were in Arizona and I put ketchup on my eggs or my kindergarten graduation in 1998 when we went out to Friendly's and my aunt put ketchup on her eggs or that time in 3rd Grade (2001) where the fire alarms malfunctioned during a rainstorm and we were stuck outside for a while.

I often scrape off the paint or whatever it is that coats pencils sides. I used to also just amuse myself by doing the same thing with dirt that was stuck in my shoes. I think I just like scraping things clean

My PC desk has wheels, and they have tabs attached to keep them locked. One of the tabs is pointed toward me, and I have a habit of unlocking and re-locking it with my foot. There's a really loud clicking sound when it happens so it's not hard to catch myself when I do it :P

Good to know that it happens in a way that lets you know you are doing it.

Oof; I forgot about this thread.

I guess a kinda weird habit I have is that I love listening to really intense white noise when I go to bed.

Violent thunderstorms, dial-up noises, metal music, and so on (sometimes even at the same time). I can go to sleep without it, but it's my preference to have it.
oh hey look more text

now it looks pretty

and slanted uwu

Up until a few years ago, I couldn't go to sleep without having the television on. Now I can't sleep IF its on.

Originally I would just watch Discovery Health but that got taken off the air so I went to Food Network. Then I found out Discovery Health took over Fit TV and became Discovery Fit and Health but they went into informercials by the time I was getting ready for bed.

So I used Fox News as white noise.

Every now and then I get a bad twitch in my inner ear. I can't stop flexing some inner muscle, and if I do it too much it starts aching. It usually happens when I'm stressed and once I start doing it it takes a week or two to stop. So it started last week during finals and it's driving me craaazy

If I told anybody else, then yes they would think it's weird. I just have a preference for smelling text books. :oops:

I have to say curse words over and over again to calm myself down during a panic attack.

I just say them randomly sometimes because I need to say them and do it as obnoxiously as possible.

It's likely I'm screwed up in the head. :?

I've become so used to interacting with wild cats that I sometimes realize I'm doing cat body language when I'm talking to people.
Stuff like slow-blinking.

Also tend to hiss a lot :D

Don't know if I posted this yet so I will post it now. You know how some things come with dipping sauces? Well if I finish what I am supposed to be dipping into the sauce first, I take a spoon and EAT the rest of the dip that it came with. LOL

I usually read stuff aloud, don't know why, but I really should stop since everyone can hear me in the house when I'm doing it. I also did this when reading the comic.
A few months ago, after I was done with my final exams and could stay at home for a while, I started rereading 'The 4 Animals You Meet In Heaven' and 'Real Stories of K9PD'. Thinking that I was alone, I read a bit louder and tried to act like the characters. Then I heard something coming from my sister's room, only to realize that she has been home for the whole time, because she decided to skip school that day.
I dunno, just imagine something funny here

And also just to advertise myself:

If they come in plastic pouches, I'll seal the pouch and freeze it-- and then have it later with chips or chicken fingers or something.
Especially if it's ranch sauce and I'm planning to have something really spicy.

If it comes in a container where I can't make an airtight seal, though, there's no point. Freezer-burned dip is....... not nice.

Also, if I'm recording myself playing one of those old video games where you get character interactions between gameplay sections with text but no voice, I will absolutely read it out with voices for each character like an audiobook. ...except more often than not, they'll be very silly voices.
