I apologise in advance as i know this has been posted before, but that was over 2 years ago & i think it needs refreshing.
What weird habits does everybody have? I think i'm a bloody freak cos i got loads:
1: If i'm sitting down & see a plug switch on but with no plug plugged in i gotta get up turn it off.
2 When buttering toast the butter has to cover the whole piece of toast. Right up to the corners.
3: The toilet roll has to be touching the wall side & not the other way round.
4: Everything has to be symetrical & straight.
5: When sitting on a chair like a computer chair. If i go to sit on it from the left, i have to then leave from the left when i get up. If i go the wrong way i have to sit back down & go the other way.
6: If i'm cooking rice or something similar i have to make sure i get every grain out the pan & dished up on the plate.
7: When writing, if a letter in a word looks to scribbled i gotta write over it to make it look better.
8: If changing the volume or something the numbers have always got to be changed to even.
There is loads more but i won't write anymore down or nobody will speak to me anymore cos they will think i'm a FREAK.

i'm pretty paranoid. i don't have bad habits in the sense that i do a certain action a lot, but i think some really ****ed up out there shit.
kind of along the same lines as buddy who doesn't like the number 13, i do not like patterns or coincidences but i seem to notice them everywhere and i think they all mean something.
for example, when a digital clock reads the same three numbers, 4:44. i think that's important somehow but can't understand why. (that's not the extent of it, but an example. something that is meaningless but i look for meaning in it). i always see connections, or even force myself to see connections between to seemingly unrelated things.
i also think everything is a test. even if no one is watching me, i just feel like i'm being watched all the time (not in a big brother sense) but... i dunno how to explain it.
as well, i was thinking today (this will sound really weird) but there was a bug in the shower and i washed him/her down the drain. then i felt bad. i always think shit like "what if this has some sort of impact on another plain of existance" type thing. or what if in another life that is me and the bug is washing me down. to say the least i felt guitly, but yeah. i always find myself wondering what seemingly insignificant things i do might have a major impact on other things.
i really find myself thinking life is a big matrix thing, ALL the time. er... more like plato's cave idea, but it's the same shit.
like i said. ****ED UP paranoid shit. i just read into EVERYTHING far too much, and sometimes the weird thing is i think i'm right.
as far as habits go, i chew my nails a lot and put black pieces of plastic on a turning table and put a needle on them and then twist some knobs and push some buttons etc.
those are pretty weird things too...

You should try and let go abit, because there is no limit to how much you can look into things etc, and where does it end? In the end no matter how you view things, it dosn't change what actually is so you may aswell just forget about it. A for coincidental events, well those kind of thing have to happen at least some of the time the same way non-coincidental ones do, then in that sense they aren't really much of a coincidence :P

doctor: "......................... uh... my work here is done. money please."
i have to question what could a doctor do about that. if it's not inturrupting his life, why would he wanna get that checked out? it doesn't sound like there is anything that needs correcting here.

i've only got a couple (that i've noticed anyway):
1. wenever i have a ham butty or owt i have to wash the ham under the tap and i've got absoloutley no idea why.
2. we've got a chopping board in our kitchen, that wenever i use it or knock it out of place i have to make sure that i put it back in line with the edge of the cooker, i also find myself linin other things up symetrically evry now n again.
3. i dont do this as often but i have to make sure that the tea, coffee and sugar pots are all facing out so u can read the labels on them.
but other than that im actually quite normal i think
i dont know why i do those things its not that i feel compelled, i just get this kinda urge.

Them things that you all said about having to have the volume on an even number, i got a mate like that, it annoys me lol, i really dont mind at number the volume is on lol.
however.....
- If im in the shower and say my elbow touchees the cold tiles, i have to then touch the tiles with my other elbow, but then if i dont touch the tilees heavy enuff, then its uneven beecause one elbow has had more cold than the other, so i gotta touch it slightly again to even it up haha.
- sometimes i will lock my front door, walk half way down thee street and i know ive locked it, but i think things like 'if you dont go back and check you will get robbed' so i have to walk back to my house 2 check even though i know its locked.
- i dont likee facing the door when im sleeping (but that has something to do with the fact that i thought i saw a ghost when i was younger walk past my bedroom door, i still dont know what it was)
- also (and this is the 1 i hate the most) I can be walking on my own and i do bets with myself, like 'if i manage to walk to this lamp post with out a car passing me i will be ok, but otherwise i will end up dieing in a car crash' really annoying stuff like that.
lol i didnt fink i had any bad habits till i started writing them down
