A conversation on MSN made me think about all the bad habits we have. :hmmm:

I have two in particular. One is twizzing my hair around in circles and my sister moans about it so much, but I can't break out of it. Another has definitely got to be biting my lip too much and it's caused them to go chap.
 
Sometimes I catch myself cutting people off at the end of a sentence if I know what they're going to say. I hate that, because it's usually strangers at work, and then it's awkward. I mean, it's rude for me to do it to anybody, but that makes it worse :shame: I also can never seem to eat leftovers--I'll always tell people I'll eat them, so no one else eats them, and then I'll leave them there for a week until they're bad and have to be thrown out :shame: Unless it's some kind of delicious cake from a restaurant or something :D
 
I'm in the same boat with the lip biting. I'll just be sitting there not even realizing I'm doing it until I bite a little too hard. Other than that, I can't really think of any other bad habits I have.
 
I smack my gum and all my friends complain 'Kaylee, keep your mouth shut when chewing gum'
>.> Like, I know but it's just a habit :gonk:
I also tend to pop my knuckles and I HATE doing it because I know it's bad for me >.<
I also seem to forgive easily and it sorta makes me seem like a pushover =[ Im just forgiving and it seems to be my weakness >.> i dun like it.

tis all for now :monster:
 
Probably complaining a lot when I get in a foul mood.

Doesn't matter what it is, if I'm feeling annoyed about one thing, I'll then complain about everything else that slightly irritates me for the rest of the day.

It gives me a headache and Steve as well. I just bitch and moan for no good reason. I'm going to end up giving myself stomach ulcers.

---

I'm also very paranoid about certain things that shit Steve off as well, and I hate him thinking that I'm paranoid just like my mother is. >.< He gets annoyed with it and it's a very bad habit of mine.

The slightest thing will happen and I'll turn it into something bigger than it is and then I panic etc. Not good. >.<
 
Something that really irritates my friends is when I click the end of my pen constantly during lessons. My pen gives off a loud sound whenever I click the end, so the whole classroom can hear it. It does annoy people around me and my teachers. I don't know why I do it all the time - I guess it's out of boredom.

Similarly I can tap the other end of my pen on the table whenever I'm bored as well. It pretty much causes the same effect as the clicking - people pissed off, angry teacher, telling-offs. Naughty me. :tehe:

Also, I do a lot of complaining as well whenever I don't have my way. I realise I complain a lot and I do try to stop that habit, but they escape from my mouth nonetheless. I complain for very small reasons, such as the cold and my nails.

I do both of those things and I annoy myself really bad, especially when Ive straightened my hair and Im twizzling it around my fingers

Biting my lips is SO annoying though, especially when I dont have lip bal, I ujst chew bits of skin off my lip and end up making myself bleed :rage:

knuckle cracking, that annoys EVERYONE. It's not just limited to my knuckles either, its like, pretty much every bone in my body that cracks and creaks

Everytiime I walk past the front door I press the handle to make sure the door is locked. I cant help myself, I tap it all the time, even if ive jut done it like 5 seconds before

Im really heavy handed with my keyboard, I pretty much just thump it when i type, EVERYONE passes comment on how loudly I type and how irritatingit is but i really cant help it 8F

My laugh. I really dont feel like i need to elaborate on that one xD
 
Not finishing what I start would be my worst one.
At one point I might have a really interesting idea for writing a story, but I drop writing it halfway for no apparent reason. I've also read many books but finished only a few. Same goes for food, unfortunetly D; and homework too. I get in trouble most of the time for that, so I always finish my homework in school right before the lesson starts.
 
I forgot to mention I grind my teeth, this is probably partly why my wisdom tooth is fucked and it's DEFINATELY why I chipped 2 of my front teeth, though luckily for me, it's only noticibale to me, id die

I have the most horrendous habit of muttering under my breath when Im annoyed, this actually earned me the mutley nickname and it used to drive my mum insane WHAT DID YOU JUST SAAAAAAAAAAAAAY?! :rage:
 
I bite my lip too and I just do it without knowing I've even started. I also bite like, the inside of my cheek bit which my sister moans about a lot, but I don't know I'm doing it.
I bite my nails and the skin around my nails though I've tried countless times to stop!
Also, sometimes I'll start a sentence and finish it with 'and yeah' because I know what I'm saying even though no one else does.
Not good.

Ditto :gonk:
When I bite my lip, I never know I'm doing it. Nobody ever says anything to me about it. I only found out when my friend was filming me for some reason. Afterwards we were looking on the computer and I saw myself biting my lip. I went red because it looks ridiculous when I do it XDD

And my fingers look weird from biting the sides of them D:
 
Quite a lot of them (I can be weird with little habits, and once I get into routines with them they are hard to get out of), but I'll just post some that pop up in my mind for now.

I'm really bad for biting my nails. I try to avoid it when I'm out in public, but when I'm at home I do it all the time. I haven't had to cut my fingernails since... Actually I can't recall ever cutting them with scissors. It can be quite bad at some times though, as I'll sometimes bite a really painful chunk off which digs into / exposes the very sensitive skin underneath and I'll be in semi-agony for ages, and really really sore. I don't know why I do it.

When turning switches off / on, I often find myself switching them on and off a few times until I do it "right". This is something I need to get out of as I actually broke a light switch once, and it can be dangerous. Yet it always feels as if I need to do this when turn a switch off, and I have to force myself not to and run away with a bad feeling haunting my mind trying to get me to run back and do it again.

I'm the same with door handles too... But this doesn't cause many problems.. It's just lame, weird, and annoying.
 
I don't know if this is a bad habit but everytime i see something not in use being left on i turn it off. I bite my lips alot too, been trying to break that habit for quite some time now. If i'm near a mirror and my hair is out of place i always comb it back, always. :wacky:
 
I have this curse of a bad habit that makes me offend people withoout meaning to. I dont know why I do it but I always tend to say things that are innocent and they get misuinterpretid. I really need to work on that ALOT!
 
My fingers look horrid because I'm always picking hangnails and ripping (yes... ripping) my nails. I don't quite know how to explain how I do it but I pick them from the side so they're extremely short. I also bleed quite a lot from doing this, but I can't stop doing it for some odd reason.

Cracking my knuckles. Almost everyone I've ever done this around hates it. I usually do it quite often, and they actually get a bit sore if I do it too much.

Leaving a clothes pile near the bathroom door. Whenever I take a shower, I rarely take the time to put my clothes in the laundry room. :wacky: I just never do it. It usually gets me yelled at, but eh.
 
Oh, here we go...

- I complain. Endlessly. A lot of people I know have learned to just block me out (something which amazes me no end when I think about it...) but it really, REALLY gets on people's nerves sometimes...at least, with the way they shout at me and tell me to stop, I'd guess it does. I complain even when I have nothing immediate to complain about - pick a topic, and off I go.

- I run on autopilot a great deal. I switch off very quickly when people are talking to me, and a lot of the time when they try to get me to respond I have absolutely no idea what they were going on about. I'm not very good at pretending I care, either - I have an off-putting attitude devoid of all empathy. A lot of conversations I have end with a "You're not interested, are you?" followed by a "No, I suppose not."

- I talk to myself under my breath. I'm not even aware I'm doing this until I'm interrupted - its quite embarrassing actually, as I've been told I've been giving away the answers to questions as I work through them in my head...out loud.

- I procrastinate. This is the curse of most students, though - I put it off until the pressure is well and truly on to get it done. I'm not as bad as some people I know, but I still opt to do nothing when I should do something. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing later. Or something similar.

- I pick at my nails. I don't like the idea of biting them, so I pick at them until they come off. Usually my fingers bleed as a result, then I have to keep wiping the blood off until it stops. I bite my lips a lot as well.

- I tend to let my clothes pile up on the chair in my bedroom to the point that the pile is about to collapse before I get around to putting them away. This is just laziness on my part, though - I sit on my bed, so I never need to use the chair. XD

I've never thought of any of my habits as bad, though. Although that is perhaps half the problem. XD
 
i bite my nails when i'm bored or when i'm trying to fall asleep so now i wear gloves all the time tis the only way i dont do it.

i also play with my hair loads which then leaves it messy >.> so i have to re-comb then every body asked why i have a comb in my bag, just because i'm a boy i shouldn't have a comb???
 
Hmm bad habits...

lets see.

Biting my fingernails, I do this quite a lot, probably because I find biting them a lot quicker than prattling about with a nail clipper for 15 minutes.

Rubbing my nose, I'm always doing it, and I dont even realise I'm doing it half the time.

Putting my foot in it, I have a right bad habit of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time which usually brews an impending shit storm, I would say I've been on most peoples bad side at one time or another for something I've said at an inappropriate moment or something thats come out completely the wrong way in which I ment it.
 
I have a few...

1. I bite my nails, without knowing, and they always look mank. My nickname to most people is Fairyfingers because I sometimes accidentally leave a bit of nail hanging...

2. I always say the wrong thing at the wrong time and tend to cause arguments without realising it. I generally don't think before I speak.

3. I fidget. I do random things to keep myself occupied, it generally looks like I'm holding in a fart but I'm not.

4. Crossing my legs, I don't like it, but I do it.

5. Playing with my hair, and messing it up. It has to look perfect or I get angry and my ego is reduced to an all time low.
