I hate clean sheets in general. Like my jeans, I rarely wash them.

I agree 100% on the clean sheets/clean body thing.  My weird habit is cleaning out my ears with stuff other than q tips (which I also use). My ears are not dirty or have any wax, I just get a weird pleasure from it. I am also always looking for new shoes/sneakers.

A weird habit I have is I can't use flimsy straws. Whenever I go into a Mc Donalds I stock up and store them in my truck. Best straws on earth. 

Now this might seem odd, when I wear white socks they have to be inside out but colored socks can be worn properly. 

Oh yeah, and I always have to dress up as Chuckie Cheese when doing lines.

I am the same way with clean seets, cant help it. I wash my hands after every cigarette. When I clean I MUST have my mp3 player on.I have to have my chapstick on me at ALL times (blistex silk and shine), If I dont have it I go nuts. There are so many stupid little habits I have that must be kept up, otherwise I would freak out.

When at a restaurant and they
have a container of sugar packets on the table I have to dump it,
collect all the like kinds, face them all the same way and then put
them back in in order. This goes for Jelly as well. No matter what Starbucks I go into, I always clean up the condiment bar When I am in a clothing retail store I will start folding and sizing clothes that are on tables I have to put 8 swipes of deoderant under each armOnce I am walking away from my car I have to walk back to it to get
within range to hear the horn honk symbolizing it is locked and the
alarm is armed When I am nervous I tap the pointer fingernail on my right hand just above the center of my right eyebrow When using a public toilet if the T.P. is not facing the right way I take it off and put it back correctly All of the money in my wallet (and my boyfriend's)
or any till drawer I have ever used must all be facing the same
direction and stacked in denominational order (low on top high at back)
and within those denominations they must be sorted in order of
"newness" (i.e. the old wrinkly bills must be spent first and the new
crisper bills last), with the advent of the new colored bills there are
now 2 subsets an order of the old style of bills and an order of the
new style of bills. All the folds that you can unfold on them must be
unfolded (no dog-earing)No, there's nothing wrong with me, I swear.

I need to drink beer in
even numbers, cant stop at an odd number.  As for example,

Tonight, I was ok with just 5, but went on to six, because
it would have been an odd number. 

Also, need to toss the empties in to the recycling bin 3 at
a time.

If I go to McSorley’s  (Spelling) in New York.  I need to order
6 dark and 6 light.this is not a bad thing.......... Sea

When I was younger & lived at home, my brother & sister & I used to torture each other as often as possible.  One of the favorites was to quietly sneak into the bathroom while someone was in the shower & dump a dixie cup full of cold water over the shower curtain onto an unsuspecting victim.  The bathroom door was always open a little & the bathroom window too because mom would scream about the hot showers causing the wallpaper to peel.This went on until the bathroom was refinished & a fan was installed to help with the air circulation.  After that, whomever was in the shower could lock the bathroom door...until we figured out how easy it was to pop the lock & the mini-gatorade dunks continued.This bathroom had one of those rolling hampers as part of the vanity, and it was the closest thing to the door.  Directly opposite the hamper was the linen closet.  So I started the habit of closing the bathroom door, locking it, sliding out the hamper so it blocked the door, and opening the linen closet door & wedging it behind the handle of the hamper so none of them could move & it was now "safe" to shower.We grew out of these stupid stunts more than fifteen years ago & none of the three of us lives with our parents anymore.  Yet, while I've been spending the last month staying with my parents, not once have I used that bathroom without barracading myself in like I was 10 years old.  I guess old habits do indeed die hard. ps: Funk, I thought I was the only lunatic who "flosses" with his fingernails?!  And I'm with you on the staring into the mirror, water running, while brushing.  Never understood how some people can walk around the house with a toothbrush in their mouths.

My co-workers at the lunch table aways make fun of the way I use ketchup packets - a little ketchup line on each individual fry straight from the packet. No big piles of condements for me. Also, don't get me started about my irrational fears of missing battery hatch covers !  We are all a bunch of psycho freaks, aren't we?

When I played sports, starting in about 6th grade, I HAD to wear my jersey to sleep the night before.  If I didn't have it, I would flip my shit until I did.  This went on all the way through playing arena football and I would drag our equipment manager out to the storage bins to get my jersey the night before games so I could sleep in it.  Nothing like banging on some kid's hotel room at 10pm freaking out like someone's trying to kill me because he wasn't at walk throughs and I didn't have my gear.Oh, and the dirtier my body is, the better I play... so I wouldn't shower from wednesday practice through saturday night games... but my hands had to be perfectly cleaned and dried.I heard a story when I was a kid that some famous athlete slept in his jersey the night before games.  I did it and had my first 20 point basketball game.  It stuck for oh... 15 years afterwards.I don't wear matching socks unless I'm wearing shorts.  I still feel uncomfortable when they match, but I feel like I HAVE to when I have shorts on.  I stopped wearing shorts for about 3 years because of this.Skoal cans must be perfectly lined up at the UPC and packed so the can will stand up on it's own, S down.I have to get out of bed 3 times to check my alarm (time, am/pm, alarm setting, volume) before I can sleep.Ever since I saw Any Given Sunday I have to look at myself in the mirror and recite "I am the greatest O lineman who's ever lived.  I can block anything." before I wash hands and get ready to go on the field.  I also have to say a prayer that my freshman football coach taught us at least once a week.  When I'm playing a sport (football/basketball/lacrosse) I have to say it before I put on my helmet/last piece of gear.My basketball shoes can't ever touch anything but basketball court.  I have to check every single website that I enjoy before I can get up from the computer.  Even if I don't read, I have to check <a href="http://www.ronfez.net/">www.ronfez.net</a> <a href="http://www.ytmnd.com/">www.ytmnd.com</a> <a href="http://www.4chan.org/">www.4chan.org</a> <a href="http://www.digg.com/">www.digg.com</a> <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/">http://news.yahoo.com</a> <a href="http://www.hotmail.com/">www.hotmail.com</a> and <a href="http://mail.google.com/">http://mail.google.com</a> Sometimes I'll just seriously click all those URLs and not even look at them, but I have to go to them before I get up from my computer.

It was about the future and it was about a person that liked to go walking at night.  No one was out and all he saw was lights in the houses.   He was eventually arrested.   I never got arrested, but you almost never see anyone out at night.

I dont go out for long walks at night, but I love taking a walk or drive late on a Sunday, or on New Years Day. Everything is so quiet, and you really notice things you miss during all the hustle and bustle of daily life. The City is great for stuff like that.

This sounds weird, and I think Zappa mentioned this as his reason for working at night, but I like it, the vast majority of humanity around me is asleep, it's quiet, it's still, sounds of traffic/construction/lawn work are minimal. I friggin love it.And I just cant watch my horror movies unless it's dark, preferably, again, after midnight. Just cant get into them in the light.Vlad, signing off.

It's quiet beyond belief.Back to weird habits...There's a penny sized paint spot on the outside of my bedroom door. It's been there for years. When I push my door open, I always use my index finger to push against the paint spot. Sometimes I think the door isn't closed all the way, and I push the paint spot, causing me to jam my finger. OUCH!

It's an astronomy thing for me too. I literally spend hours looking at the stars; naked eye, some small telescopes, lately I've been taking long exposure pictures of the sky when it gets dark enough, well dark enough for NJ, if anyone knows anything about light pollution, the skies here are never, ever really dark, but I can get Orion the Hunter rising, if you look south on winter nights you see him, he's tilted about 45 degrees to the left, the three stars that make up Orion's Belt are at dead center:<img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m110/MizzleT/orion3.jpg" border="0" width="500" height="601" />Below the three stars of the belt  is Orion's 'Sword' which contains the Orion Nebula, M42, it's the 'smudge' in the center of the photo below:<img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m110/MizzleT/m42_1.jpg" border="0" width="500" height="558" />The blue smudge [what a poetic term] = the birthplace of stars, if we could go really fast forward in time this patch would be blinking as stars turn on and light up. And a few nights ago, the moon:<img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m110/MizzleT/luna2.jpg" border="0" width="500" height="517" />Taken through the telescope Fez first saw the moon through at WJFK. Hey! It's getting dark out. Seeya!

I'm bumping this old thread back to the top. I have this habit of scratching above or around my ears. I say scratching, but it's really more a systematic removal of flesh. I really hate it, but I don't seem to be able to stop for any length of time. It gets worse with stress and I can be doing it without realizing, like when I read a book or watch a movie. I think if I could stop enough for the skin to heal I would be okay, but the fucking healing process is hard to get through. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop?
