What are your worst habits? (Keep in mind I don't want too much detail...*shudders*)

I'm a nail-chewer. I admit it. I also scratch my eyes a lot, and I know I shouldn't.

You?

I spend too much time online and don't feel very good about my everyday choices sometimes.

I have a 6 page term paper and several assignments due in less than a week.

And I'm playing on the internet instead of doing them.

~~Well, sometimes I bite my nails~~ Um, I don't have any bad habits. Nope, I've never had any! ;D

I'm lazy. I'm like a sloth on horse tranquilizers. It's awful. And I know that I need to do something, and I know the consequences (most of the time), yet I will wait until the very last moment. Right now, for example, I have 6 chapters of AP world work, and even though it's not due till the 22nd, I know I will take forever to start, and take even longer to finish.

-When I know the grandfather clock is about to ring, I jump onto a piece of furniture or suspend myself in the air using two countertops, and don't touch the ground until it's over.
-When I'm on the highway, and there are shadows draped over the road, I hold my breath while I'm in the shadow and only breathe in when I'm in the light, or vice versa, depending on how many shadows are there.
-I chirp.
-When someone mentions something like being tickled or sharks advancing, I get nervous and think that someone is going to come out of nowhere and start tickling me, or that a shark is going to appear and chase me. Things like that.
-I am excessively lazy when it comes to school work.
-I slap myself in the face when someone makes me feel bad.
-If it's spooky and I feel suspicious that a ghost or evil thing is going to attack me, I end up lecturing the surrounding area that it would be impolite to kill me.
-I don't let my mom or anyone lend me money.
-I have excessive guilt over everything.
-I can't get up right when I wake up.
-I pick my lip, but that's because my medication gives me very chapped lips.

I start playing my old NES for hours straight, it's like I can't stop (but maybe that's a good habit). I find it strange that can play some of the really old games a lot longer than the new ones.

Tingrio · « **Reply #12 on:** December 04, 2005, 02:47:04 PM »

I'm a hair/eyebrow picker when I'm nervous. It's a bad habit only because I think I have bushy eyebrows or hair.

-I bite the inside of my cheeks
-When I get nervous I play my guitar
-I always feel the need to become an adult earlier than I should.
-I'm an excessive procrastinator.
-I pop my . . .body (pretty much every joint on my body) whenever i get nervous or hear someone else doing it.
-On the road (similar to Markio's) if we're passing by a driveway or entrance to somewhere I keep my lips shut but open my mouth and clack my teeth when there isn't a driveway/entrance. yeah, it's weird I know.

Well, those are the strange Habits of GB. Read em and weep, and if you don't, I know someone will.

Grinding my teeth while sleeping. Although I'm pretty sure I'm doing it way less often recently... unless I'm just not waking myself up from it as much...

I guess it's a subconscious habit?

X-TREME procrastinator.

Me too. I have a book report due on the 9th. On a book about James Monroe. And I don't even have the book yet.

I have a (short) paper that has to do with Hamlet due tomorrow at 5 PM, and I haven't started it yet and don't expect to even get around to starting it today. :o

Bad HABIT BEWARE!

I'm a procrastinator too! I have yet to fail from doing so.

I would have posted here earlier, but I'm a procrastinator.

I sometimes bight my nails.

bobman37 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 06, 2005, 07:19:53 PM »

most of the time, i can't stop moving. i'm always tapping my foot or shaking my finger. it's pretty crazy.

BP · « **Reply #24 on:** December 06, 2005, 07:30:38 PM »

"Bight," Koopaslaya? I bite my nails, but I don't bight them.

Thank God Almighty, my teacher postponed the due date by a week because another 8th grade teacher backed out on the "This book report is due on December Ninth for the entire eighth grade, no exceptions." I should get the book I need within a day or 2. I'm not stupid by any means, and if I read the book I can do a book report on it that's 2-3 times the required length. And James Monroe's not that boring. I'll be ok... muwahaha...

I scratch my scalp to the point where it starts to bleed quite frequently (at least once a day).

I'm not going to be joining you. I'm the spelling bee champion of the county (county, not country). I do make a few erors, but only in my typig.

Mr. Melee · « **Reply #29 on:** December 09, 2005, 01:58:38 PM »

I'm an OK speller. Stupid compounds and i's and e's. Grrrrrr! X(

Glorb · « **Reply #30 on:** December 09, 2005, 03:03:57 PM »

I have absolutely no bad habits.

Wait, compulsively stabbing stuff isn't a bad habit, is it?

bobman37 · « **Reply #31 on:** December 09, 2005, 05:32:06 PM »

I actually consider myself an excellent speller. For some reason, i seem to just know how things are spelled. It comes naturally to me. i'm pretty good at spelling bees... well, i would be, but i get nervous and over-think things. I spelled the word "editor" E-D-I-T-E-R in fifth grade, becuase i was arguing with myself whether or not it was E-R or O-R, and i ran out of time, so i had to say something.

Sapphira · « **Reply #32 on:** December 10, 2005, 01:33:58 AM »

A trick my 5th/6th grade teacher said was that the general rule for remembering if a "one who" word ends with -er or -or is that if the suffix "ion" can replace the ending, the word ends with -or.

Examples:
inventor -> invention
editor -> edition
operator -> operation

singer -> ~~singion~~

A few exceptions I can think of are "doctor," "sailor," and "tutor."
Hmm, it looks like the roots of the -or/-ion words end with a "t" (as the last consonent). I can't think of any good examples that don't. Hmm... XD

Heh, one time, my friends and I made a He man film. here is a snipit from our film. We stole about half of it from some He-Man episode we watched earlier.
HE-MAN: I am He-Man, prince of eternial!

HE-MAN: A lava pool?! Nothing could survive THOSE temperatures.

Replace the triple full stop with a hyphen to understand it.

Although this isn't my habit, I hate it when, on the forum or chatroom, people just call me 'Luigi'.
