Confess Your Little Quirks
 

The volume on the TV has to be on an even number.

I sometimes walk around the house with my laptop while it's playing music, because it makes me feel like I have my own theme tune.

If I'm not in a rush or it's late at night, I sit down to have a piss. It just makes sense, I can't be bothered aiming and it's less effort than standing. Sit down wees are brilliant.

If my sheet pings off my bed, I freak out. Even if it's just one of the corners that's off, I can't lie there knowing it's off. I have to amend it.

What little endearing/annoying/weird quirks do you have?

I'm obsessed with the number four. And sixteen, because it's the square of four and therefore even more four. When I read a book, I find myself looking at groups of four words and seeing if they equal sixteen letters. Extra points if there are an equal number of vowels and consonants.

I NEVER mute a song when I listen to it or turn it down for a section. If anything distracts me, I pause it. If I need to take a pee, and I can't keep my door open to listen, I pause it.

I'm an insanely cheap human being. If I spend more than 3$+ on a meal I feel terrible.

I care nothing of the space of people around me. I am obnoxious and uncaring of the feelings of my peers, but will complain endlessly if I'm kept awake by one of them

I'm an autist, I have so many quirks I don't even notice most of them anymore.
Like having to touch something with my right hand after I unintendedly touched it with my left hand (this is something like an itching nose when you carry something heavy, it always happens when it's unpractical...), my car radio has to be set to either 2, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24 or 25. Anything above that is very uncomfortable.
I have to touch my cat's tail with my right hand before he goes out. I used to have two cats, had to touch the other cat's tail with my left hand. Had a stray cat around for a while, had to touch that with two hands :D.

When I come down from the stairs and it's really dark in the living room, I have to switch the light on with my foot (pretty easy, the button is next to the stairs) so I won't have to be in a dark room.


I'll post more once I think of more. There's loads of them.

5, 25 here ;)

If you see me in public there is a 99% chance I will have a toothpick in my mouth (save the small dick/gay jokes :finger:). I just gotta have something in my mouth. If I'm lounging, it's tobacco. If I'm out anywhere, i always have a toothpick in. I feel less nervous with a toothpick in as strange as that sounds.

Dude, you're crowding my post.

Perhaps, but four is the first square number, and is therefore superior. I don't think one really counts because a square has four sides and one could only have one side.

For some reason when I'm riding in a car, I tilt my head to one side (right or left) and and move it to the other side, when an obstruction that blocks grass(i.e. drive way, poll, other car) comes up on that side.

Why do I feel that this is going to turn into a contest?

When I brush my teeth, I hold my balls with my left hand. I have no idea why I do this. It's totally instinctual and happens every time.

When I'm done having sex, I cough. Every time. I've actually read about other people having this thing as well. I think it's the tension leaving my body.

I have to have music on at work or else I can't get anything done. I think of myself as an engine that runs on stimulus. I can't just sit in peace and do something.

I don't eat anything that comes in a packet. Ketchup, mayo, ranch, mustard, relish...I think it's because I don't know how long it's been there. It could be a 5 year old packet for all I know

It doesn't matter. Five owns 4. So 5 times 5 is more five!
I don't care about 625 though. Something with the 6...

Because five is going to kick four's ass :D.

Same. Every time. I'm sure my ex loved me coughing all over her neck while spooning after sex.

I don't like having things lightly touching my neck. For this reason I generally wear open collar shirts, though things that are tight around my neck are okay too so I don't mind ties. But if I wear a tee-shirt I have to wear a tight necklace with it and I hate turtlenecks with a passion.
