Anybody have any? Here's a couple of mine: I know it's extremely common, but when I was younger I used to stick my tongue out when I was concentrating really hard. Especially when I was playing guitar or drums, my tongue would always be out like a dog. Same when playing video games when I got really into it. Thankfully I don't do it anymore. Another one of mine is that I refuse to go anywhere without my headphones. I'm addicted to music, but even if I'm going somewhere where I wouldn't be listening to any (e.g. out with mates, at the cinema etc), I must have them with me at all times. They're always hanging from my shirt. I don't know if you'd call this a habit, or just being plain  ing fussy, but I only eat things made by top name brand. Nothing that's a supermarket's own product. I have to go shopping with my parents to make sure I don't get anything like that  . While we're on the subject of eating, I always eat all the chocolate around the purple bit of a Turkish Delight first. I guess you could say the fact I like them is more unusual than my method of eating them. When I go for a shower, I make sure I use a bath towel with a horse on it. Yeahh... When I'm eating sweets that come in colours (e.g. MnM's, Skittles etc) I always leave one of each colour until the rest are gone. If they're small enough I usually eat all the remaining different coloured ones at the same time. So yeah, before I embarrass myself anymore, share some of your weird ones. |

Whenever I have a Big Mac from McDonalds, I ALWAYS have to take the middle bun out and top meat patty (eat them seperatly) and procede to eat the burger (a "small mac" so to speak).
I cannot eat a full packet of crisps without scrunching the bag up and pouring the crushed crisps into my mouth.
Whenever I go to a Sunderland home game, I always persist on walking all way around the stadium first before entering. That's probably my strangest one lol.

When it comes to branded food, I will only have Heinz soup. I actually prefer a lot of Asda brands over top names. Not only are they much cheaper, but taste just as good if not better in some cases.
Other random things include TV volume always on even number, but not numbers that remind me of things. Before I turn TV off at like 4am I have to go to BBC news then Sky News (always switch off on Sky News.) When rinsing out a cup or filling with water to drink, I fill it up 3 times before putting cup away/drinking.

Tilting side to side when playing like a racing game, turning right and I tilt right when I do it. I rarely eat food round other peoples house, I was worse when I was younger. I fiddle with the seams of my clothes constantly. I always karate kick the shower water to check if its hot enough. Whenever I turn on sky I always go to 405 even if its already on. Fiddle with my hair a lot, so does my brother and my Dad. When I get things like McNuggets I always eat some chips, then a nugget, chips, nugget, chips, nugget in that way till i'm finished. Same with Burgers. Only eat branded food as well. Always have the TV volume on certain numbers. I can never leave anything on 13, if something is loading, it's at 13% and I need the toilet I will wait for 14% before going. To lock my front door you just lift the handle up, I always hit the handle twice afterwards to make sure its locked. I leave 9 "x"s on every card unless that person has annoyed me around that time. It annoys me when people touch my stuff, most of the time I wont use it for a while after. Angles for things like TV's makes me set off on OCD for some reason, the angle has to be just right for me to watch otherwise it bugs me. When I eat a kitkat i break the red rapper then slide my fingers across the tinfoil in-between the two bars to create a slit. Theres loads more I can't think of. |

I can't eat asda/morrisons/aldi value food. Its the green and white/yellow packaging which just puts me off, and with aldi, I just assume it's crap:-[

Whenever I have a bag of haribo, the last one I eat must always be a heart for starmix or fizzy cherries in sour mix.

Your all mental... but i know exactly where your coming from.
3 drains - the old 3 square drains together routine, cant stand on them or i'll obviously die or some cak.
Cant walk under a sign post (two poles linked by a sign above)... the same reason for the drains.
Washing up - I cant wash up like a normal person, everything has to come out of the sink, rinse each thing, a spot of fairy liquid on/in each item, fill with hot water, leave to soak, come back and wash up. It doesnt matter how many items or how dirty they are, it needs to be done.
That one bothers me the most as its a waste of water and product.
To be fair a lot more that im not willing to share.. ha

I always put my right root on first, don't know why but I just always end up doing it.
When playing video games, I open and close my mouth quite riggedly, infact I've had a moment or two of lock-jaw due to it.
Thats all I can think of right now, yep thats all

Only one I can think of is when having an ice cream I eat the cone from the bottom up before I even touch the ice cream, from bottom to top type thing.

If anybody is familiar with ASDA's Smart Price foamy fruit sweets, I have to eat them banana, strawberry, orange, in that order. I normally bite all the chocolate off the sides of chocolate bars first - always with Kit-Kat chunkies and Crunchies. I always check the ceiling above my bed for spiders |

The only weird one I can think of is that the volume of the TV has always got to be on a multiple of 5.

I assumed by "a horse" you meant a Ralph Lauren towel, but that might just be my warped designer mind and you might actually just want a towel with an actual horse on it...

If they're small enough I usually eat all the remaining different coloured ones at the same time. Again, I'm exactly the same. BTW, the new blue one is awesome. I must leave the tv on SSN when I turn it off. I have to have a full glass/bottle of water next to me when I sleep, no matter where I am. I hate jinxing things - I never say I'm going to uni, only I hope to go, never say Man Utd will win, only that we should, never say I passed/failed, only I think I might have. I can't have my windows open at night (bugs always come in, but I havent opened them when I've slept since a bat attacked me when I was 11 ). |

I constantly flick back Sky Sports News or refresh Twitter or Facebook, even though I usually dont need to.
I cannot sleep if theres a peak of light through the curtians.
When I shower, I take my underwear, socks and trousers in the bathroom with me. But leave the shirt in my room for my return.

Surely signing Darijo Srna, Landon Donovavn, Cristian Zapata, Ryan Shawcross and Alexis Sanchez all the time on Football Manager is a habit, Mike?

Not sure if it's an unusual habit or just OCD, but be warned that if you touch the pillows on my bed you will have your head kicked off. I hate it. I also have to sit at a certain angle when playing my XBox. I can't sit directly in front of the TV. I have to sit just to the right or left. I wash my hands about 57395 times a day, for no reason at all sometimes. When I text my girlfriend, I always put 3 kisses ("x") at the end. Never more or less. Probably a lot more, tbh. I'm quite odd like that. |

When I've had mates round, as soon as they leave, I re-organize my bed. Can't stand it looking messy. Am also very OCD about people touching my stuff. Hate it when people put fingerprints on things. |

Same. I just hate the thought of dirty hands/clothes/etc. on my pillows where I put my damn face! I also have to personally inspect everything that comes out of the dishwasher. If it's not cleaned to my standards, back in it goes. |

If I eat a meal with meat in it e.g. a sunday dinner, whatever happens the last thing on the plate must be the meat.
If I have a tickle in my throat i tend to do this weird throat clearing thing which annoys people.
When I lock my front door I always feel like I haven't locked it and always go back to check.
