Hello, fellow Pandas, we all have some sort of habit—some of us might even have some weird or strange ones. That's exactly what I want to know about. Tell us about what unexpected or unusual habit you have. What do you do that people are weirded out by? How long have you had it? How did you get into that habit?

I have a lot. My mother thinks it is OCD. Can't sit on a seat with an uneven number in cinemas etc. Volumes of TV etc have to be an even number, too. My knives, forks and spoons are arranged in the drawer, as are my socks and underwear. There are more...but the one that annoyes me is that I have to tap my pocket when I leave the house. I put the keys in my pocket, tap tap tap, go to the door, tap tap tap, open the door, tap tap tap, go out of the door, tap tap tap, close the door, TAP TAP TAP. Like, really? Why do I tap after closing the door, if was not there it would be too late!

This isn’t really a habit, but if me and my friend ever talk about how creepy dolls are, we immediately have to stop and compliment them so that they won’t...come for us.

1). I will just zone out and no one can do anything about it until I snap out of it.
2). I will act like a Harry Potter wizard and pretend to curse my sister.

I have to have an even amount of food on each side of my mouth like two goldfish o the right and two on the left. I also have a strategy for eating apples and pears and fruits like that. Where i take shallow bites in the middle to make like that iconic apple core in cartoons. the i get the skin off the tops and bottoms then i finish eating the apples! I didnt know until two weeks ago other people dont have stratagy's for that.

I snap my fingers unusually often especially when there is music or I'm thinking about music.

Whenever I'm walking on a tiled floor or a four cornered floor, I DO NOT step on the edges. I always have to step inside the block. I apologise to myself everytime I step on the edge.

i have aspergers and i have a habit of counting things whenever my emotions are at extremities. counting days, hours, minutes, steps, bricks, words, etc. in my mind, if i count it, it makes it real. and that helps me calm down.

I have some more that I forgot.
I will wake up at 1 am in the morning thinking it is time to start the day.
I drink yogurt through a straw.
I can only sleep diagonally
I can only sit on the couch upside down.

I literally cannot leave a dry erase marker without a cap. Even if it has already run out of ink, I wonder if it might have some left in the bottom part. Needless to say, my family finds this very irritating. I also take extremely good care of my white board. Did you know that each time you touch your white board with your bare skin the marks on the white board are harder to erase? I never touch it and extremely enforce this rule when my white board is borrowed. (I THINK my whiteboard is shiny.) Anyways, I think you can see my weird habit in this long description.

When I eat a meal, I have to take a bite of meat, then a bite of vegetable, then a bite of bread, then take a sip of my drink. Repeat until all the food is gone.

i can't get in my bed like a normal person. instead, i have to take a running leap so my feet don't get too close to the darkness underneath. i've done it for years, and it seems silly, but you never know...

#1) I have a brother that I haven't seen since he was born and he is about 11-12. I will constantly daydream me taking him around, when I'm an adult, and showing him our 11 other siblings and telling him their personalities.
#2) I peel my lip because it's satisfying. It usually bleeds.
#3) I clean my house, friends houses, animal cages, kitchens, kids rooms, and anything else but my room. I find it fun unless it's my room. For someone who likes to clean, it's the dirtiest place in the house.

SOOOOO. I like to imagine myself in different movies or books being one of the characters. For some strange reason, I walk around the house mumbling things that nobody can understand.
I walk around the house over and over again and when I stop, I just continue doing whatever I was doing before. Problem is, I might be eating breakfast and just stop to do it. I didn't even notice I was doing it until my brother asked me what I was doing.
