Your irritating personal habits

Mr Benevolent

Yeah yeah, there've been threads about other people's personal habits. But what about yours? Mine allegedly include:

- Slurping tea
- Breathing through my nose
- Not showering every single day
- Talking too much
- Saying 'boobs' instead of 'breasts'
- Tapping the table when making a point

Based on the above, my girlfriend seems to have it in for me, or else she's in training for some bigger nagging.

So what are your worst personal habits?

PS: Boobs.

Why didnt you complain about her breathing through her nose?

It's not my own bad habit, but I HATE people clicking things (yes, I know this is not the subject of the thread). Clicky pens, clicky bull dog clips - araghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't know what it does inside my head but the effect makes me feel psychotic.

I have sat in work imagining myself going over to some oblivious twat in the next bay, taking their clicky pen out of their hand and jamming it up to the hilt in their neck.

Drives me MAD!

The worst I do is pick my nose a bit, relatively sociable in comparison.

That's one of the more unsociable habits.

Moaning!

And, obviously, administering 'sneaky fingers' :pac:

OP you don't shower everyday - shame on you!

I shit in the garden and scratch my feet in the grass afterwards, wife hates it.

Make too much noise in the morning.
Make too much noise when going to bed.
Snore.
Say Wha when asked a question eventhough she thinks I heard her and me watching football.
Forget everything she tells me, but remember everything my friends say.
Turn my knife upside down when eating, making noise when I eat and slurp my drink.
Thats all I think.

Jesus how loud are those clicks if you can hear them from a different bay?

I your sitting in work, and your in a bay... i guess that makes you a life guard?

orourkeda

sh1ting the bed after a weekend on the whiskey

The King of Moo

Snoring occasionally, and the odd bit of nose-picking.
I also break wind quite a bit when walking about while listening to my MP3 player, so they may or may not be silent, and because I can't hear I tend to forget to worry about that.

I've acute hearing. Means I can also clearly hear them tittering at me in my red swim suit as well tho

I don't suffer fools easily and therefore I sometimes annoy people when I refuse to humour them when they seek validation for a point. Mind, I only am like this with people I respect and am close to. The other 99 percent of society I just bite my tongue and be as polite as possible and don't bother with them.

e.g, Them; " I didn't mean anything by what I said like, (I'm from Cork, hence the like) was pretty drunk sure. You know when you're drunk like...(pausing to wait for me to nod approval of their concept of being exempt of blame when excess alcohol is consumed).

Me; "Are you looking for me to tell you its okay to behave like an ass because you were drunk and therefore not really even your fault?

I know it'd be easier to play along and tell people what they want to hear but I just couldn't live with myself if I wasn't honest with people I respect.

Edit; repost.

I have a habit made of horse hair, it's extremely irritating

Om nom nom chomp chomp mouth open nom chomp nom chomp nom nom nom

I eat pretty bad

sweet girl

I clean/scratch my ears alot, with cotton buds and mostly rolled up tissue. I sometimes waken in the middle of the night and do it, i also do it when talking to my other half and it drives him mental!!

Scrambled egg

Jesus the list is endless. I think i'm a horrible bastard . Top 3 i'd like to change though are :

Arguing just to prove a point.

Apparently I never actually listen.

I'm an absolute prick who loves to winde people up when I can.

Ouchette

Being pedantic
Being right

The 2nd one seems to be the bigger problem.

Random acts of sexual assault.

Biting my fingernails.
Playing with the those little tags on the inside of t-shirts, hoodies....
Cracking my knuckles.

That's fine, you have a sense of hygiene. What make my father annoying is that he gouges out these great big nuggets of dirty gold, and for 'lack of anywhere to dump the used cotton buds', puts the goddam things back in the container.
Aaaggghhh!

Come on little guy, turn that frown up side down. You have a humourous name. It's all about small steps, but in the right direction.

My weirdest one is that I chew my the necks of my tshirts. I don't know why exactly but if there's a loose thread or something I have have to bite it off. My family have given out to me when they hear the sound of teeth on fabric.

I also can't sit in a pub without tearing up the beermats into tiny little pieces. That really annoys a certain friend of mine.

I've also been told I'm very loud when going to bed or getting up in the morning. I try to be quiet though. I blame my family for being light sleepers...

I like to balance a beermat on its corner, with my finger on the top corner, so its a diamond shape. I then spint it round for ages, which apparently my friends find annoying. (I realise my description there is awful).

I also do the non stop shaking of the leg thing.

And smoking is an obvious one I guess.

GirlOfGlass

I constantly pick the skin off my lips, it's been a habit since I was real young. I can't stop, even when they bleed.

AnonoBoy

I run my finger along under the words on the screen and mouth them silently as I read posts on boards.ie

I can tell you from experience they are an absolute pain in the ass to clean up, most of them either end up in the ashtray or all over the floor, not cool

Ciderswigger

Cracking my knuckles is a big one. So satisfying...ahhh...
Breathing like I'm Darth Vader in bed at night.
Peeling sunburnt skin. But everyone does that, right?
I'm a serious leg jiggler and hang my foot over the bed at night and rock it side to side. That's probably my most annoying thing.
I do that beermat as a diamond and spin thing too.

Nothing too weirdy or random.

Karona

I always peel the labels off my bottles of beer (yes i know that is a sign of sexual frustration)

I bite the skin off my lips

I talk very loudly in my sleep.

I make a noise when i eat or if im really comfortable, i cant hear it but everyone else can and it really annoys my sister which i think is hilarious.

Ciderswigger

What kind of noise? :eek:

Vicxas

- Pick my nose
- Shake my legs when im nervous or happy
- Gesticulate when i make a point
- Stutter when im caught off guard

I do that too. Not sure what it is to do with - is kinda like rocking yourself to sleep tho

I have found out that others do not like to be rocked to sleep. I love it though so they can just sleep on the floor...

Poutbutton

I whistle all the time when I'm on my own or busy doing chores or my garden. Sometimes I don't even know I'm doing it until someone comments.

FlutterinBantam

I like ploughing the bag batter in the gutters of my ballbag with my fingernails.

After 3 or 4 days the sediment is nice and juicy and responds to a good scrape.

Pull up the bag and give her a good auld scratch up along the seam.


can't be beat.
