Weird quirks you have?

[Kaez]

Fear of Food (more specifically taste and texture)

I tried cake at my wedding.... how people eat that gross crap.

Do I win?

Edit: Also as Eco posted above, I am like a walking furnace. People call me that sometimes (My wife mostly)

 

[Chairman Miaow]

A few more:

I do loads of stuff in my sleep. I have sleep eaten, had a bath, talked, held conversations, even chased after my sister because "I was late for school and she had stolen my dog." or something like that.


I also always go on all fours up stairs.

This is amazing.

I have mad temperature resistance in both extremes most of the time. Then randomly, about once or twice a month I'll have a day where I'm just unrelentingly cold no matter where I am.

I get amazingly hot no matter where I am. and I live in England.

I do not slouch.

I itch when I try to concentrate.

I have a look my friends have dubbed 'The Charles'. It's kind of like this. [http://s386.beta.photobucket.com/user/IrishNinja456/media/AngryBadger.jpg.html] Espically if I let my flat top grow out.

I'm told I intimidate people; I'm a security guard and my company has learned not to put me at any malls unless I'm on bike patrol because the bigger stores' Loss Prevention teams will ask me to stop patroling in their space. I scare away the shoplifters, they say. I wish I was joking.

Wait wait, they are complaining that you are doing your job TOO well..... wow... just....

My eyes adjust to light levels at different paces,one can see the world as being bright and colouful while the other see's everything as dull and colourless.
It takes them a while to sync up properly and untill then it's a bit disorienting but it's never been a real issue just something of an oddity.

 

[farscythe]

i have to tap the counter twice before taking my change.. i do it everywhere be it pub or supermarket i always hand them my money then tap the counter twice before taking my change.

and i always crack/rub my left shoulder whenever i feel uncomfortable around people..its and old injury that turned into a habbit i think.

also..i hate people standing behind me it annoys me no end.

 

[Bruenin]

I always have something in my mouth, either nibbling or whatnot :/
I normally chew up my headphone cords cause it falls near my mouth >.< I have three broken pairs and a lot of wasted money because of it... but I just feel off without something

 

[thespyisdead]

for some fucking reason, after skipping a step for a while, while going up the stairs i can't step on every step... just feels...wrong... and slow

Really abrasive music I find relaxing, such as...

I wouldn't call that "really abrasive." Its slow tempo actually is pretty relaxing.
I thought you meant something like this:
That is abrasive.


As for my quirks, I've got plenty.
One of mine that hasn't been said: when I get really in to a TV show, book, movie or game, I start to act like and/or model my life on the characters in that work of fiction.
For example: I got Sherlock Holmes's coat for Christmas; I took a sailing lesson after I started reading The Count of Monte Cristo; I started using the word "folk" a lot and generally talking like an outer space frontiersman after watching Firefly, etc.

How about some Venetian Snares then:

[AngloDoom]

- When hanging clothes on the line to dry, each item must have the same colour pegs on it.
- I always run, never walk when going up stairs.
- Some of the lights in my house have multiple on/off switches. These switches must remain in sync i.e. the one that was used to turn it on must always be the one used to turn it off.

Spoiler: Wait

Holy shit, I didn't even realise I did all those until you wrote it.

 

[Scorched_Cascade]

In my room if I sleep facing the wall/window rather the door then I have really, really vivid nightmares and wake up in the night disoriented and scared to go back to sleep (sometimes it feels like someone is still in the room with me even when there isn't) till I realise what's gone on.

At a guess it's because I'm a little paranoid and the door is the main access to my room so if I have my back to it then I'm unsettled.

I'd imagine that it's not uncommon for people to be restless with their backs to the door but my level of response is probably abnormal.

 

[Ashadowpie]

i do this very random shudder/shiver as if there was a sudden very cold draft in the room, i do this even on hot days where there's nothing cold anywhere. its weird. also, i have names for all my plants in the house, not outside, too many. i also cry when a houseplant dies(which is extremely rare by the way)

Weirdly enough I found myself saying all that stuff on English and I don't know why. For some reason I am able to express my feelings and my thoughts on the theme "love" best when I do it on English.

OT Many people are like that. An old colleague of mine preferred to talk in English when he was telling me about his difficult life. Before that, in uni, a co-student (what's the right word?) who was a mathematical genius found it easier to explain the stuff to the rest of us grunts in English. And when I browse photography sites, a lot of photos have English titles or captions. I also prefer to sometimes use English for some stuff rather than my native language (and I work as a friggn' editor).

English is just such an easy language to express ourselves.

Especially compared to German - you know this joke?

I guess that could be it.
And yeah I know that joke, but I like the Schmetterling one more

Back on topic:

When I lay down to sleep I can't sleep in for a really long time, even when I am really tired (when I am drunk I can sleep no problem though)

Right when I sended a post on here I can remember one thing more to say.

 

[neversleep]

I sit in positions people usually take yoga classes for. I do this at hope and at school usually on chairs.

I never did yoga

 

[thesilentman]

I talk to myself. I imagine your guys' voices whenever I post here. I'm disorganized to all hell, but I can still find my stuff. The list is endless...

 

[Flamezdudes]

Whenever these topics come up here I can never remember my own quirks and such. God damn it.

How about talking to myself almost constantly? Especially when i'm alone. I also do it a lot when making plans, however what weirded me out one day is that I referred to the conversation I was having with myself using the word "we". For example, instead of saying "I should do this", I said "We should do this."

Weird.

Another one is that I can quite picky about the quality of the stuff I own and the things I buy. For example, I once searched an entire book store to find the best quality version of a book I wanted so it would have the least amount of damage or scratches on it. Even the tiniest ones really irk me.

I'l edit this post for more of my quirks later if I remember any.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Every once in a while I will have to sit and stare at a mirror for about a minute and try and remind myself who I am. It's not as crazy as it sounds, it's probably just a sign I need a longer night's sleep.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

I will not look in the mirror, and if I have to look at myself in one then I will not look directly at myself. I have no idea why I do this, and I really don't think it's because of some phobia either.

I bite the inside of my mouth and sometimes my lips, and that can be a ***** since I typically will make myself bleed.

I lean against stuff all the time and I don't really stand up straight, but that's really because I have shitty ankles. So I tend to shift my weight onto my left leg if I stand too long, and I have to tell people that it's not because I'm impatient or anything.

When I leave a restaurant I have to have a toothpick to chew on. Don't really know why either since I don't chew gum or anything.

 

[M K Ultra]

I've been told I whistle constantly, not any songs or melodies, just an atonal warbling. Like sentient teapot.
