I was just curious, but I'll start.

I can't start a puzzle (crossword or otherwise) w/out finishing it.

When friends come over to watch a movie, if they dislike reading, I intentionally turn on the subtitles or watch a foreign language film.

I'm obssessed w/ clipping my fingernails, anagrams, historical facts, and recent discoveries.

I often nickname most people I know after films, movies, or general characters that I've come across. (It leads to a lot of inside jokes between a few of my buddies and other acquaintances are ultimately clueless and probably think that we're nuts.)

My Media player says that I've listened to 'No Quarter' for over 19 hrs. (not repeatedly, but overall)

I rarely sleep for more than 4hrs at a time.

Any type of symbolism intrigues me, except when entertainment mediums blatantly try to incorporate it in an influencing way.

I despise people who intentionally stare at you: esp at traffic lights.

'Achilles Last Stand' is my favorite song, yet I hardly listen to it.

People fascinate me when they're perpetually quiet; it's a rarity and I admire that.

I'm an on/off again game addict. When I play rpgs, my entire weekend is probably shot. (I need one worthy of playing. Ex: When Final Fantasy VII initially came out, I almost finished the entire thing w/ no sleep - 1st Disc: 31 hrs, 2nd Disc: can't remember, 3rd: Didn't make it past the 3rd or fourth hour before I passed out.)

When I go out to clubs, if I'm talking to someone who I probably will never make the effort to see again, I'll give them a friend's number. (Usually most of my friends do the same to me - it creates some pretty interesting situations.)
You'd be surprised at how funny it is to have a total stranger call you at any given time just to find out that the person on the other side is purposely speaking incoherently. It's all in good fun, but it has led to few post-humor mishaps.

When I watch movies, if I really enjoy it, I watch it three times for emphasis.
1st to dissect the dialogue/screenplay
2nd to take in the character interaction, movement/fluidity, and facial expressions
3rd to analyze the backgroud details

Sinatra's 'My Way' probably describes my lifetime philosophy.

Sorry, but I was bored. :o
 
Any time I pass a sink I need to wash my hands. At home, my face too.

I rearrange my furniture every few weeks or months. No matter how I do it I'm never happy with how it is, but I'm too lazy to figure out why.

When I play an oldschool arcade game where you have a certain amount of continues, I have to restart if I lose a life otherwise I won't enjoy playing. But the constant restarting ruins my enjoyment. So it's lose/lose.

If someone tells me a joke or something funny, I repress my need to laugh and instead do some impressed sniff thing while nodding and grinning.
 
^I have the same problem with rearranging furniture.

If my mind starts to wander in the shower, I'll end up going through a whole bar of soap; If that's what I have instead of body wash, anyway.

Also I have trouble sleeping in a bed that is un-made.
 
I have a habit of always fidgeting by either using my hands or biting things.

Yeah, I also have the habit of doing that sometimes.

I also grind my teeth...especially if I've been drinking.
 
I know I should stop doing it, but I don't. :(
 
Uh..let's see.

Not really a habbit but a nuances. Sometiems I'll feel extremely depressed, while other times i'll get bursts of energy. So much so I have a hard time containing myself. I feel like I'm going insane..I'm usually creative during this but have a really hard time controlling my impulses. I really scare myself sometimes.

Anytime I pass an animal I have to pet it, befriend it. Been doing this since I can remember, only been attacked once. I also like to run after deer...I don't know why.

I have strange nervous ticks. Like sometimes i'll scrape my fingers together when I feel really anxious/nervous. I've done this so many times before I've made myself bleed.

There seems to be no middle ground for me. With everything, in my life. Relationships, drinking, sleeping, hobbies, eating..everything. And I often switch between love and hate with most things also. It's quite madning.

I'm extremely curious about everything. I'm constantly asking "why" or poking and fiddling with things.

If somebody tells me not to do something. Then I'll do it in spite of them. Even if I know the outcome won't be good.

I get extremely angry when somebody tells me what to do.

I'm never happy with anything I do. I constantly work at something, like say my artwork and try to make it better. I usually only quit from exhaustion or just destroy the thing.

That's all I can think of right now.

That's why it's called a habit.

It's something that we can't automatically stop. ;)

I am just a brain of knowledge.


None of this knowledge can get me a career though :o
