What is an embarassing habit of yours that you hope to never be caught doing?

Asked by ItalianPrincess1217 (11979points) October 30th, 2009 from iPhone

Do you pick your nose? Eat your earwax? Don’t be shy. Nobody will judge you.

I have a bad habit of picking tiny hairs off my face that I missed after shaving

erichw1504's avatar

I also sometimes pick my nose hairs

Eat your earwax?
that is really really gross

CMaz's avatar

Nose picking.
I like to dig deep!

Nose hair plucking.
I pull them out in clumps!

And, tossing my toenails behind the couch.
Otherwise the dog eats them and that is gross!

I piss in empty Snapple bottles if I don’t feel like running upstairs.

I like to pick my nose in the car. So I’m sure others have seen me.

I always seem to be really gassy in public libraries and bookstores. Sorry for the cropdusting!

I touch myself after I sneeze.

Okay,really, who DOESN’T pick their nose? I have a nose stud so I have to usually, I’d rather pick em then suffocate on em! And I’m pretty obsessed with plucking my boyfriends unsightly body hair! Hehe, secretly it’s to inflict pain when he’s ticked me off!

I sometimes say out loud what I am thinking. It has happened that people nearby hear that, and it get’s all weird.

I blacken in teeth and then laugh hysterically. I know, very third grade, but I just can’t help it. And yes, I draw in the stash. Speaking of stash, better hide your magazines when I come over.

Talking or singing out loud without realizing it. And, I do talk back to the TV, but it does not answer me Thank Heavens!

Grisaille's avatar

@peedub if blackening in teeth and drawing mustaches on pictures is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right

peedub's avatar

@Grisaille HAHAHA!

I hope you’re ok with me quoting that all night.

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

Whenever I shave off my beard, I always leave weird mustaches or muttonchops, just to see what they would look like.

I shave them off before going out in public.

You know when you buy new products and some of the parts come with a thin removable protective film? Yeah, well when I see that still on other people’s stuff, it pisses me off and I remove it without them knowing.

peedub's avatar

@forestGeek You are evil. I always want to do that. Some people need to live on the edge and they don’t even know it.

ItalianPrincess1217's avatar

I sniff paper. New magazines smell so good! Sniffing a new magazine = instant orgasm.

erichw1504's avatar

@forestGeek One time, I noticed that my 2 month old cell phone still had a piece of that film on it. I almost cried.

My skin is in a constant state of some sort of rash or peel and I have the habit of pulling off pieces of skin and then looking at them then rolling the little bit between my fingers. Grody but true.

forestGeek's avatar

@peedub – I never want to be the one that pushes them over that edge, but I must do, what I must do!

@erichw1504 – I completely understand! a big fear is someone discovering it stuff on my stuff.

wasabi_rave's avatar

@forestGeek OMG I Do that all the time! I always wonder way after the fact if they ever noticed. Especially when its on someones laptop/computer… dang that drives me batty! take off the damn stickers already!

I wouldn’t call that an embarassing habbit tho. ;)

SpatzieLover's avatar

@forestGeek <hides all my stuffs from his sight> I love protective film. It makes my possessions feel protected!

wasabi_rave's avatar

@SpatzieLover I could slightly understand keeping it on your cell phone or something… but not things like printers and computers.
Besides!! It all starts PEELING after a while and looks like crap! But then again, you peel it off after a year and your stuff does look brand new again… haha.

SpatzieLover's avatar

@wasabi_rave My Touch looked new for many months! ;)

forestGeek's avatar

@wasabi_rave – wow, I’m so glad to know there’s another who does this! In some situations it might be a bit embarrassing if I got caught.

@SpatzieLover – no protective film is safe! ;)

jrpowell's avatar

Wow.. Remind me to never have forestGeek over. My camera still has the film on it. I keep it on so I can get more for it when I sell it.

wasabi_rave's avatar

As for me… I can’t think of anything really embarassing that I would fear being caught doing. As for just weirdness, after putting toothpaste on my brush, I have to hold the tube in one hand while brushing my teeth. I assume this is because my brain doesn’t want to 1: set down my brush and have it roll, getting toothpaste everywhere. 2: I don’t want to set down the toothpaste and forget to put the lid back on. (eeew, crusty toothpaste!)

Oh, yeah. And I balance my eggs. I’ll let y’all figure that one out.

I pick at my zits. I know, it’s bad! BAD!

Facade's avatar

I like to hold on to my private parts so no one steals them

wasabi_rave's avatar

@Facade Hahahaha. i doubt thats the true reason. I always find my hands on my own boobs without realizing I put them there, but thats definately not because I’m afraid someones going to steal them!

Facade's avatar

@wasabi_rave You never know…creepy

jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities's avatar

I like to hold on to my private parts too, but for other reasons.

wasabi_rave's avatar

@oratio who knows. maybe. Kinda like when people twizzle their hair when they’re sleepy or bored.

oratio's avatar

@wasabi_rave Interesting. Some men like holding their boys when relaxing. I guess that’s common.

faye's avatar

sneak out a little fluff——women don’t fart, you know

Sueanne_Tremendous's avatar

I am a discreet hamper raider and panty sniffer. I know. I know. But some times she just smells so wonderful and I love smelling her clothes to remind me of her. Yes. And her undies. I’ve never been caught, but I wonder if she knows????

wasabi_rave's avatar

@Sueanne_Tremendous Wow, thats almost up there on the list with booger-eating. haha.

oratio's avatar

@Sueanne_Tremendous Oh, I thought that was normal.
