I bite my nails.
I cut my toenails too short.
I am loud.
I thrive when I'm surrounded by clutter (to my husband's dismay).
I avoid confrontation and things will escalate and only get worse.
I yell at other drivers (because I know way more than they do about driving).
I bite my tongue. I know, I know. WEIRD. This is my worst habit for many reasons...but especially because multiple dentists have told me that it will cause cancer. I have gotten better. But I need to quit.
I do NOT share food. I need to write a whole post about this. I know my old roommates are laughing out loud as they read this one.
I avoid returning voice mails.
I tend to flip out in stressful situations.
Anyone else partake in any of my bad habits? Or is the other way around and my habits are on your list of pet peeves?
we have FAR too many bad habits in common!!!!
ReplyDeleteI may do a post on this, because now I see that it's not sooo weird!! :)
I also cut my toe nails way too short... I don't know why I can't stop myself because it doesn't look good AND it hurts!
ReplyDeleteI could totally copy/paste this on my blog. Were we separated at birth? haha
ReplyDeleteI yell at bad drivers too! Sometimes I try to work on this and sometimes I just go with it. :)
ReplyDeleteI can be really loud too. Especially when I get excited. I also tend to talk extremely fast and people can't understand me. This can be a problem.
ReplyDeleteI don't flip out when I'm stressed, I just try...not sure which is worse?! haha
I do NOT pick my split ends... heck, I don't even know if I could find them.
ReplyDeleteI am extremely LOUD. I can't help it. It drives my boss NUTS at work.
I like to share food but only on my terms... if you take food without my imaginary permission - watch out!
I love that you put the comment about not sharing food! I was definitely smiling about that one!
ReplyDeleteI also thrive with clutter. And my husband also hates it!
ReplyDeleteI also chuckled at the not sharing food one.
ReplyDeleteI really don't share food either. I will cut you. I don't do well with family-style meals at restaurants. I always get nervous that there won't be enough. I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteI can pick my split ends FOR HOURS! God help strangers sitting next to me on planes because I can pick those suckers from L.A. to N.Y.C. without stopping - I'll get up to pee and leave a trail of hair in my wake.
ReplyDeleteI am also excessively loud. This was always a remark on my report card as a youngin'.
Aaaaaaaand NO FOOD SHARING for me either - Evan always orders the same appetizer-salad as me because I am the Best Salad Chooser Ever (secret talent) but I will refuse to share it with him so he has just learned he better get his own!
I am so loud! And Brad likes to point that out when in front of other people.....
ReplyDeleteand I also avoid confrontation as much as possible!
And I leave my cloths all over the floor....whoops!
I don't pick my split ends, bite my nails or bite my tongue, but I do everything else that you do.
ReplyDeleteSpooky? Or, perhaps it's a sign of friendship fate?? :)
I also hate checking voicemail, and had no idea that biting your tongue causes cancer, weird! You're not alone in those habits though I'm sure:)
ReplyDeleteDon't know how familiar you are with Friends, but I had a flash to the episode where Joey freaks out and yells, "JOEY DOESN'T SHARE FOOD!"
ReplyDeleteDitto on the avoiding confrontation, yelling at other drivers, and flipping out in stressful situations!
ReplyDeleteI avoid confrontation too! I hate it! But then I let it boil up inside of me and when I do comfront someone it tends to be worse then it needs to be. Sigh. Need to work on that.
ReplyDeleteLong toenails are so icky. I cut mine way too short, too, ha!
ReplyDeleteI curse when I drive.
ReplyDeleteI don't do the toenail thing, but I tend to avoid shaving until I absolutely have to.
I love this post. I know it's old, but I just saw this and had to laugh at home many bad habits we have in common! I'll take the toenail one further, I tear mine off way too low. It hurts. But I can't stop!!
ReplyDeleteI also don't share food. My blood will boil if someone pulls food off my plate.
I bite my nails and thrive in clutter (also to my husbands dismay)...I too am pretty terrible at sharing food- but I'm working on it!
