Bad habbits

Former Member

Not sure I'd call them "habits", so much as OBSESSIVE NERVOUS TICKS:eek2: but here goes. I'll make you all feel much better about yourselves....

chain smoking
drinking
puffing
drinking coffee
skipping breakfast
twirling my hair
picking out my eyelashes
sighing
swearing
responding to everything with dry cynical wit
getting sucked in to stupid t.v. shows
sucking on candies
applying lipgloss
scratching my crotch when no one's looking (of course, my hubby doesn't count)
fiddling with my crotch - for any reason really
rubbing my feet together to get to sleep
whistling
breaking into song with improvised lyrics
bobbing my head to imaginary beats
walking on my toes
walking with a swagger
dropping, bumping into, tripping over things
procrastinating
scratching the inside of my nose with my longest finger nails (NOT the same as picking it, though it often creates the illusion)
sniffing armpits - especially my hubby's (lucky he thinks it's cute or I'd have to do it stealthy-like)
doodling things on my feet
talking in my sleep
napping at every opportunity like a freekin' sloth
surfing useless websites
pr0n
studying my flaws in the mirror
spending money on useless things like fast food and mochaccinos
using over-the-counter pills to correct any minor discomfort: advil and sudafed are my best friends

in fact, the only GOOD habit I can think of is reading anything and writing anything, but especially poetry, and I suppose that would fall more into a "hobbies" category. SHIT, no wonder I never get anything done.

oh ya, and cursing like a mail room clerk.

I smoke more than Dennis Leary... one day I *will* be trachiotomy(fuck knows how to spell it) woman unless I cut back.

I say dude after pretty much every sentence. Everybody I know is refered to as dude, everything is dude. Got it dude?

And I skip work more than anybody ever should and I shit myself to think about how I have never gotten fired yet. But fuck it. I hate work.

And I have the mouth of a trucker.

You know, the more I think about it, it would probably be more efficient for me to just name the vices I don't indulge in:

gambling. I've gambled maybe three times in my entire life.

That's pretty much it, really.

How sad. I think I'll go pluck out some eyelashes.

God, how I envy people like you. I've never played hooky once in my life, unless exagerating an illness in my own mind for dramatic purposes counts. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't. But then, I suppose that's another bad habit you could add to my list.

Also I can get reeeeeally cranky over stupid insignificant things, after long stretches of emotionally distancing myself. Also I love telling people about dreams I had the night before, in great, tedious detail. And talking about myself in epic posts and then disappearing for months at a time.

I know i sit watching tv doing it at the computer with out even thinking about it and i wish i could stop because it must look so disgusting. My poor hands!

Former Member

I am moody, messy, I get restless and senseless. Hehe, though I'd sing a bit of Miss Simpson (black hair) for you. And I swear far too much and don't speak properly.

Sucking my thumb. I do it because it's a comfort thing, like when I get tired, nervous, or bored.

I could probably stop, and I should...but so hard!!

OMG.... as embarrassing as it is.. i do that too....

but in secret...

Former Member

I might as well join positive pain on the huge list of bad habits i have, far too many to think about at the mo.

A few choice ones;

smoking, biting nails, being far too cynical/picky/critical (comes from being a virgo starsign), being a complete committment phobe, swearing too much etc. etc.:D

Sometimes my sarcasm can sound a little cheeky. And I bite me nails when I get stressed.

I do it in public...

Some girl on the bus once called me immature (not to my face obviously - my sister heard) because I was sucking my thumb on the bus. I was tired damn it!
