This *is* an odd quirk, Conan. Unable to make a 'Halt' hand! You poor thing.

Ha ha! I can relate. I never sit down on a public toilet. I either hover just above the seat or layer the whole surface with toilet paper, only to get frustrated when one part slides into the bowl, dips in the water, and drags the rest of my carefully arranged paper down with it. Then I have to start all over again.

I also always wipe with wet toilet paper. Always. First dry. Then wet. Then dry for the finale. I go through whole forests at every sitting!

Another quirk: when I'm standing in the kitchen while working at the kitchen counter, apparently I never stand with both feet flat on the floor. I always have one heel slightly raised or tilted so that my weight rests almost entirely on the other foot.

Even after I'm reminded of my quirk and consciously try to stand on both feet, within several minutes I forget.

I'm like this horse with her back foot slightly lifted:
