Do You Have Any Weird Quirks?

[DramaQueen]

my whole life is a giant quirk.



seriously, i have so many strange things about me that the list could go on forever.

perhaps tomorrow i'll name a few, but for now i'll just leave it at that. heehee

 

[STOPxmickeytime]

-I can't sleep underneath the covers. I sleep on top of them with a throw blanket over me.
-I always check behind the shower curtain whenever I go into a bathroom.
-I hate the feeling of foam, like on foam fingers.
-Whenever I don't know the words to a song, I'll always like scat along. Like I seriously don't even notice it! All of my friends tease me for it, because I'll just be like "Shoo be doo bop bop ba doooo" or whatever and not realizing it haha.
-When I'm at the movie theater watching a scary movie, I have to sit with my legs Indian-style, because I'm always scared that someone/thing will grab my feet.
-If someone else screams, I always freak out and scream. Like someone's about to kill me. Everyone tells me it's the perfect horror movie screen. Pretty inappropriate for most situations.

Honestly, I'm a pretty quirky person. But I embrace it, I think it makes things more interesting.

- I cannot sleep with my closet open.
- I can NOT stand awkward pauses. I will say anything [and I mean ANYTHING] to avoid them. Even if it means saying something stupid that'll make it worse.

can't think of any more atm; i'll prob add some more later

 

[MickeyisBeast]

You do realize that most clothes are made of cotton, right?
- I can't sit with both of my feet dangling, either. I'm always either sitting indian style, with one leg tucked underneath, like with my knees up to my chest, or by crossing my legs.

- I can't sleep if my closet door open, if it's not dark enough, if it's not quiet enough, or if I have a lot on my mind (which is most of the time). I also have to sleep with MANY pillows, one flat sheet, one furry blanket, and one comforter. My blankets have to be straight, except I tucket the bottom part underneath my feet. It makes me feel safe.

- If I'm tapping my feet or clicking my pen or whatever during class, I'm always counting, and I can't stop on an odd number. I can remember doing this since I was in about 3rd grade.

- I play with my hair all day. Like I'll twist it in my fingers, but I CANNOT have anyone else touching my hair. I'm very much one of those people that needs personal space. I can also remember doing this since forever. My psychology teacher finds it fascinating, lol.

- I have a phobia of getting my eye poked out. Like I can't let my eye get anywhere near something pointy or edgy or sharp without out squirming and freaking about. I takes me like 5 minutes just to put mascara on. It started a couple years ago after I stopped wearing contacts, but I'm getting much better at controlling my reactions.

- I can't chew my gum on just one side of my mouth because I think it's offsets the balance. I have to chew it equally on the right and left side.

- Sonya mentioned this before, but I also have a set way of showering. Rinse, shampoo, rinse, conditioner, shave, wash body, rinse. I do it the same way everytime I shower. It's second nature now.

- I don't like certain bottled waters. I think aquafina tastes like swallowing pure salt and minerals. I pretty much stick with smartwater because of that.

I can't think of anything else.

Yes, I know that :]
I meant like a cotton ball or a Q-tip... Like a big chunk of "pure cotton" or whatever you want to call it. Sorry, I should've explained better.

cotton feels REALLY gross when you touch it while its still on the blossom. it feels greasy almost. its so gross. and it has the big hard seeds in it. ugh. it gives me goosebumps thinking about it. lol

Yuck now I have goosebumps! That's just gross lol
I'm glad I'm not the only one who freaks out over cotton

 

[Disney Dork]

- I can't sleep with the fan on.

- I can't sleep without having the covers on. I feel so exposed of they're not. ;>__>

- I don't share drinks. Period. I have this really wierd parinoia about slobber and back wash.

- I'm a MAJOR creature of habit. You take me off my known 'path' and I end up being like those ants in A Bugs Life when that leaf falls in their way.

- I pick things when I'm nervous. I'll go from picking at my split ends, to picking at my finger nails, to picking a stray string on my shirt.

- I always have to finish eating one thing before eating another. Like, say we're having meatloaf, mashed potatoes and corn for dinner. First, I'll eat the corn. Then, I'll eat the mashed potatoes. And then! I'll eat the meatloaf. I don't eat a few bites of one, go to another, and then go back to the first one. I always have to eat one, and then the next. *is strange*

- I always have to check to see if my alarm clock is set about 15 times before I'm actually able to sleep. I get so paranoid that it's not going to go off in the morning that I really do check it over and over and over again SEVERAL times before I go to bed. It drives me absolutely nuts, but I can't help it.

-I ramble when I'm nervous and am forced to talk to people anyway. Seriously. It's horrible. ;___;

-I can't walk and eat/drink at the same time. Well...I can...but I walk slow. I can't do it at normal speed.

 

[My Wild Love]

I love this thread, It almost makes me think I'm normal! I've thought of more... haha my list keeps getting longer and longer.

- I sleep with a pillow on top of my head.
- When I'm at home I only like to use certain spoons.
- I'm usually always doing something with my hands. I can't keep my hands still lol.

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

I eat pizza and many other things with a fork.
I can't sleep with my closet door open.
If I leave the room I have to look inside my closet when I get back to make sure a murderer isn't hiding in it.
I have to have my door closed when I sleep.
I have to listen to my zune when I'm fixing my hair.
I can't stand still while brushing my teeth.
I make an effort to vacuum my room everynight because having a clean floor makes me sleep better.
I have to eat cottage cheese with triscut.
I can't focus on a needle or anything small too long and try and do something with it or my brain and nervous system basically has a meltdown and I start twitching and get really uncomfortable.
I absolutely have to listen to my zune when I'm going to sleep. I can do without but I get really frazzled and takes me forever to go to sleep.

Lol. Yeah. I'll edit if I think of more.

You're the second person I know of (besides me) who eats pizza with a fork.

 

[Babyjustrun]

When other people sneeze loudly I get violently angry...

 

[DramaQueen]

i do that too

 

[m!ssemmx0]

- I can't sleep with any lights on
- I can't sleep with my door open
- I have to sleep with socks on
- I hate foods that are too soft or mushy
- I really dislike having to use pens, I mostly use pencil

 

[♥Ariel♥]

before i take a shower i look behind the curtain if it is closed to make sure no one is there then turn on the water.

before i go to bed i have an inspection type thing. I look behind my closet door and make sure it is open, i look behind my bathroom door, check behind the shower curtain again turn on my night light (cause i must have some form of light on in the room) and close my bathroom door half way. then i make sure my computer is off and my phone is pluged into the charger.

Must have a fleece blanket gathered toghether and on my right side edge of my bed that i curl up with i kinda like hold it.

thats all for now...maybe i will think of some more later

 

[Babyjustrun]

i do that too

And me too.
Simply because if slice of pizza is really hot or the toppings don't stay on well, it's much easier.

 

[imabrat]

I take the cheese off my pizza. I really don't like mozzarella, and melted mozzarella makes me want to vomit. Everyone always gives me strange looks but I don't care. Tomato Pie rawks, that's why I like living near NY/NJ.

 

[imabrat]

double.

 

[Cassidy]

all the house lights have to be turned off or i can't go to sleep. i can FEEL when a light is on, even if its the room under me.

i sleep with my right elbow covering my eyes.

i hate sitting in chairs. at school i always ask teachers if i can work on the floor. my desktop is also sitting on my floor in my room right now.

i cant leave the house unless my phone is fully charged, i know it dies during the day but before i leave it HAS to be fully charged or i'll leave it at home on purpose.

my bed cant be neat. or i wont sleep on it.

oh, and something i developed about three years ago is that i can't stand up for more than about three minutes without feeling sick, i have to sit on the ground if im in a line or something.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I really don't enjoy most pizza.
I think it tastes gross like 75% of the time, but I occasionally find a restaurant or two I don't hate.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I eat everything with forks/spoons/napkins. If I touch my food by mistake I won't eat it. Last time I touched my food with my hands was like two years ago and only because I was dying during a field trip to the movies...
I unfold napkins and fold them the other way...like inside out?
I have to retype everything I type a few times even if there's no mistakes.
I keep my tooth brush and tooth paste in my room since I think it's gross if you keep it in the bathroom...
If I'm home alone I have to say/yell,"Is anyone here?" "Hello" just to be sure and check if there's a car outside if I'm somewhere where they have a car...I do that even after I see everyone that was at the house leave.
I hate sitting down in some places (like outside of my house)...like at my friend's house I stood for like four-five hours for no reason. And at the bus stop I stand but that's mostly because the bus stops here suck.
I count almost everything I do and I have to do everything a certain amount of times (5, 10, 15, 20, 25...) I can't stop on anything that ends with 2,4,6 or 8. I don't like stopping on 1,3,7 and 9...I can sometimes but it bothers me. I have OCD...
I have to wash my hands with warm-really hot water.
I can't do anything right if one little thing is different, it messes me up a lot...
I like writing backwards/reflections (in print) and upsidedown (in print and cursive...like if someone's in front of me they'd be able to read it like that instead of writing it normal and then turning the paper so they can see it right...)
I have to lock the door to my room if I'm going to write or draw.
I have to turn the switch thing for the clock light (low-high) 50-55 times...it depends if it's on low or high when I start to do that.
If someone talks to me while I'm counting (like when I'm washing my hands) I have to start over because I forgot where I was.
I don't like writing/drawing unless I'm wearing a fingerless glove on whatever hand I'm using (I've gotten used to wearing them whenever I write...)
I ask before I do anything (not as much as I used to...) Like I'll ask if I can use the computer or watch TV or something and before when I asked a lot more I'd ask if I could eat lol. I have to ask or else I'll worry about doing something I'm not suppose to do and getting in trouble. I don't really ask before I do anything at home anymore, just at my aunt's and grandparent's and anywhere else...

I have cousins who loooove tomato pie. I've never tried it, but I'm assuming it's just pizza with no cheese on it.
