What are Your Quirks?

[Millarca]

I have a few:

I don't like for my food to touch on my plate!
I can't sleep with any doors in or to the room open.
Grain/grainy foods make me gag - grits, rice, oatmeal, cereal, etc.
Water makes me gag unless it's flavored.
I can't drink carbonated drinks at all - they hurt my throat.

I have lots more, but I can't think of 'em right now.

Your turn!

EDIT: Another one - I have to have some sort of noise in the room before I can go to sleep, like a fan, even when it's very cold inside or out.

 

[Heisenburger]

I can lick my left elbow but not my right.
I have the TV volume set to 12, 15, 20 or 25. Never anything else.
The same thing about food touching.

 

[daughter of the moon]

I can lick my left elbow but not my right.

LOL



Same thing with the bedroom door. It has to be shut AND locked. Also, I can't have my foot hanging over the side of the bed because I'm afraid something will grab me in the dark.
And before I can go to sleep, I need to apply several layers of lip cream.


I have more, but my head is not working right now.

 

[Locke]

I eat sandwiches with a fork.

I also sleep with a fan on for the noise.

I'm sure there are more, but I can't think of them at the moment.

 

[annik]

Also, I can't have my foot hanging over the side of the bed because I'm afraid something will grab me in the dark.

I'm the same about that. Plus when I was younger I would always pull the duvet right under my chin to protect my throat from vampires!

I also always make my boyfriend sleep closest to the door.

 

[Triple Bogey]

I get migraines. I have these special glasses which I put on. They make me look like Roy Orbison. The migraine goes after 20 minutes or so. I get them once a week on average.

 

[EveWasFramed]

The people at work are afraid to touch anything in my office or not put it back in the EXACT place they got it from. That COULD be because I act like I want to chop them up into tiny pieces when I reach for something and it's not there or has been moved. lol

 

[ichat]

I have an adversity to organization. The more chaotic the plans the better my level of creativity. Oh, I find it hard to cook when there is way too much food in the fridge. I like bare cupboards, but I can't stand a dirty, dusty or filthy house

 

[Millarca]

I can't sleep with my feet covered!

 

[MTrip]

My quirks?...Geez, where do I begin?...

Really....I would never have guessed!

Lol....bite me.

 

[lonelyfairy]

I always have to turn my mirror around before going to sleep! Lol, no idea why... :shy:

 

[daughter of the moon]

I can't sleep with my feet covered!

Really?? Oh wow, that would be my nightmare - not having my feet covered.

 

[Rosebolt]

When i walk, my foot cannot possibly cross any cement. As in, i have to place my foot right on the stone tablet thingy.

If a lantern is to my right, then i cannot set my right foot right next to it. It has to be the left. To create more space, etc.

When on a bicycle, i have to either avoid all stripes or cross them all the way. Prefferably the latter.

When on a highway, i have to wink in between passing cars, with the eye that is on the side of said cars. An itch with the corresponding eye will do, too.

I always have to walk on the beat my music is going. If this is undesirable due to ridiculous speeds, i need to make another sound, with my hands for example. There's music going on in my head 24/7. Either i'm listening or i'm making up compositions in my head that are appropiate to the way i am feeling at that moment.

I'm not sure if these things are quirks as i don't know the exact meaning.

 

[Mr.YellowCat]

I never try food during cooking. Nor I use measurements and that kinda things.
I like to make the most ridiculous stories and watch if people believe them. Like, for instance, making up stories about when I fought in the 1 World War (Actually true in fact, I was in the third regiment on the east front. I got injured near the end of war, and went astray after our convoy was attacked by revolutionary bolsheviks, so I spend two whole months walking thru winter taiga, trying to reach the town our army build near Ural. I was bleeding almost all the time, as I did not have tools to take out that few bullets, not to sew up the stab wounds, so after a while, a pack of wolves found me, and followed me until we reached the hills where we fought. Even when I won, and the wolves run away, I was not in a state to walk any further. I lost my consciousness.... But this is a long story, and this is not a place for me to tell it. Not that I told you the beginning in the first place).
Things displaced in my house make me really angry and disappointed in the state of the world.
I almost always wear my ring with me when going outside. And the thought of ever loosing it drives me really mad. I would really become crazy if that were to happen.

 

[Pedestrian]

My fingers always has to be fiddling with something.

 

[Rosebolt]

My fingers always has to be fiddling with something.

Yep, one of the many things i forgot.

 

[Millarca]

I tap on my desk when I'm waiting for something to print or finish loading. I just HAVE to be doing something.

I won't take a full lunch even though my employers prefers that I do so. Again, I just have to be doing something. If I eat in 20 minutes, for example, 40 minutes is not enough time to really drive anywhere/take care of errands, so I'd rather just go back to work. So I'm a ridiculous person in that I don't allow myself a full hour for lunch, even if I've worked seven hours or more.

I just hate, hate, hate when I walk into work and I can tell that someone has been near, or has used, my desk. A few days ago, I saw an email on my desk that a coworker printed from their computer. LIKE WHY IS THIS ON MY DESK??? WHY?? All is WRONG with the world.

Why? It's the best!!

 

[MrE1986]

I like things in Alphabetical order and I wash my hands alot, total OCD

 

[Millarca]

Oh. It doesn't matter how reputable the place is, I always think my dog has been abused and/or misused during his time away from me. If he's boarded or goes to a daycare, I almost always inspect him and watch him for any mood changes. If he goes to sleep after a WHOLE DAY at daycare, I'm like, "OMGGGG MY BAYBEEEE WHY IS HE SLEEPING AFTER EIGHT HOURS OF NONSTOP PLAY??? WHAT DID THEY DO TO HIM???"

Concerned dog mommy or "quirky"? I say the former.

Whatever.
