I guess that would help me stop pressing the snooze button to the point where the alarm clock stops trying and it doesn't go off again. :lol:

It isn't only while sleeping that I am on my stomach with my right arm under the pillow. When I lay on the couch to watch TV or something else, if I lay on the left side of my head with my left arm under my pillow I can't get comfortable at all.

I never watch television in bed. I just close my eyes and listen to it so I can fall asleep.

There are certain synthetic materials that drive me crazy - they have a smooth yet textured feel to them that causes a weird reaction with my tongue. I guess the best way to describe it is that they make my skin crawl.

Sometimes, I will run my hands through my hair then smell my hands.

Ever since the first grade, I would play with my pencil during class. Ignoring the fact that that's the most obvious setup for a dirty joke EVER, I would always pretend it was a sword or a wand instead of paying attention, sometimes even including sound effects. Got on a lot of people's nerves. When I got older, that habit turned into me tossing my pencil into the air and catching it. Most of the time I would miss and it would hit the ground and distract everyone around me. I still do both of these things today, but only when I'm alone. Fiddling with a pencil just helps me think.

A lot better than what I used to do: chew pencil erasers.

I am sure there are a bunch of people who wished I only did that when alone. :lol:

I usually play with my pencil instead of paying attention. Once I even went to sharpen it, and while going back to my seat, instead of walking I skipped. Everyone was staring at me, that was great. :D

Seems that is the type of thing I commonly do, just act crazy and silly for no reason.

Since I was recently told over PM by a mod that my post flooding was annoying, I'm trying to limit how much I post by cutting it in half, which means counting how many forum posts that are new and dividing that by half.

I tend to prefer having little hair to having a lot, yet I don't get haircuts till I really need it. I'm also really picky about trimming my nosehairs and will stick the trimmer up my nose and buzz them down whenever I get a chance.

If I have too much of my food in the house (I only need 7 packages of food), I tend to try to eat the excess to get it down to 7.

Also Foxstar, can't you hurt your nose doing that?

Their are trimmers specific to nose hair, Amazee. Heck, the semi-cheap clippers I bought specifically for keeping my beard trimmed came with several different attachments that I never use, one being for nose hair.

I am totally disgusted by too much fat in meat. Since i was young whenever someone wanted to get me to eat a steak or stuff with too much fat in it i would spit it out in disgust since i really hate the feeling when you bite on a large amount of fat this wobbly gobbly feeling. Bah. Same goes for eggs. I like pancakes and stuff but i am disgusted by raw egg be it a normal breakfast egg or scrambled / fried egg. I will even find the tiniest piece of egg in a salad and wont take a second bite off it.

One thing I do is that whenever I sit in front of my computer i put my headphones on by habit regardless of whether I'm listening to music or not. They're always plugged in anyway.

I will plug my headphones in and put them on, fully intended to listen to music (mostly my favorite songs from Savants Vario album), and then realize I haven't been listening to anything for three hours.

On my right hand, my pinky finger will cross under all the others. I'll then stop whatever I'm typing/drawing and grab it with my other fingers and run my thumb over my nail. I'm doing it right now and I can't stop.

I can't sleep unless there's noise. I'll just star at the ceiling and blink when my vision darkens too much.

Stare at my work in class. Just stare at it.

I just did it now. Often times I'll write out an entire paragraph about something, read it over, shorten it down to a few sentences in length and then just completely erase it because the consequences of it aren't something I want to deal with, even if they aren't necessarily bad consequences, and indeed this time they were probably not.

I carry my keys in my mouth when I'm walking. I have them hanging out and I'm holding them between my teeth.

Also after I beat a boss in Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat on the Wii, I bang my chest like Donkey Kong does.

When watching a TV series or any series really. I have to end on an even number or increment of five like episode 2 or 5 of the series. If I tried and forced myself to get sleep and not stop on a good number I would become very anxious and not be able to sleep at all.

I tend to curse at people out of habit for no reason. Like reflex cursing I've almost done it to teachers and my parents. I need to stop this. Help.

I don't get anxious, but I very much like to end on even numbers and multiples of 5. for anything, not just tv shows.

I have this weird habit where I will smell my top lip constantly throughout the day. I also tend to keep things like pickled onions, mushrooms, grape skin and plum skins in my mouth for hours to play with my tongue. I am a bit obsessed with symmetry. A few years back whenever I did something (like scratching, running fingers through my hair etc) with one of my hands, I would immediately do it again with the other hand just to even out my hand usage.

I used to have something similar. When I was younger I would have to alternate left/right evenly, although I believed that odd numbers were the true even numbers. That is, if I closed my right hand, I would have to do the same for the left and then the right again. The reason I believed the odd numbers thing is because I thought that if I did something, say, right-left-right, it would be "undone."

Yeah, it filters into other things for me as well... I'm so glad I'm not the only one that does this lol. If the volume on the TV doesn't show numbers I will literally count the clicks it takes for the bars to increase. The old I had when I lived at home took four clicks to increase and I would make sure there were an even amount of bars and that the bar I stopped on had only two clicks on it... :)

I guess it's just our nature to want to end a quantity with those numbers, for the peace of mind. Nothing wrong with that.

Lately, I've gotten into a habit of chomping on my mum's cats' eats like how a furry would glomp others in affection. I started doing this with this one online friend while chatting as he started to do typical furry things like nuzzling and stuff, and somehow ear glomping made its way to real life. No teeth mind you, just the lips, with a cartoonish munching sound xD
