Do you do have any habits that others might find annoying?

[The Large One]

When I'm sitting down, I often "jig" my legs. This is truley maddening for anyone sitting near me in an attached row of seats, like at Withdean.
I pick my nose at traffic lights and wipe it under the seat.
I leave beard trimmings in the sink.
I snore.
When I open a bottle of beer, I just let the cap fall into the cutlery draw.
I never spray after using the toilet, as I much prefer the natural smell of my own faeces to some horrible synthetic flowery crap.
I am ridiculously obsessive about the lounge being tidy before settling down to watch anything on TV.
I drum rhythms on my desk with my fingernails whilst staring into space.
I'm always whistling, but not properly. Its more like a hiss, as I just put my tongue near the roof of my mouth and blow the "tune" out.
I use a pen to scratch and de-wax my ears.
I use a BIC penlid to scrape the crud from behind my fingernails.
I use a serrated knife to pick my teeth after meals sometimes.
I often make a loud, stupid "EEERGH" noise when I haul myself up off the settee (deliberately to annoy).
When my wife is reading, I say something to her suddenly and slightly too loudly, in an attempt to make her jump.
I rewind films to replay a certain scene because it has "good surround sound" - I then insist everyone in the room listens carefully to the bit I mean.
I flick channels incessantly during ad breaks.

Other than that, I can't think of much really.

Perfectly natural behaviour. Where's the annoying bit in that?

I am the same if I feel that a scene is particularly well composed in terms of how it is shot, the performances and the sound. I also can't understand if people can't appreciate it in the same way as me.

Doesn't annoy me in the slightest. I feel very unappreciated sometimes.

I have a habit of hearing what somebody has said but saying pardon? all the same. As they begin to repeat I answer the original question. Very odd, don't know where it comes from. They get very annoyed.

I do that too.

weird innit. I can't help myself though.

Really? I haven't even noticed. I would have said your most annoying habit is your inability to leave washing up for more than 20 seconds. Or your face.

 

[Les Biehn]

Mind you, you did have to put up with my constant digging for gold and inpromptue solo golden showers.

Pardon? Yeah I do like to get the washing up done.

 

[Nibble]

I also yawn a lot when other people are talking. And I yawn when I talk. Often I will say most of a sentance while yawning, the other person cannot make out what I am saying they get annoyed

 

[CHAPPERS]

I think it's to do with impatience. I literally cannot sit through a set of adverts without constantly flicking channels and I make sure i do tihngs in an order which means there is no dead time. For example, I'll put some bread in the toaster then kettle on then turn on the computer then get all the butter and jam and that out at which point the toast will be ready then I'll pour the hot water into the mug with a teabag then I'll butter the toast then give the tea a stir then jam the toast then remove tea bag from cup then I'm ready to lok at some porn on the computer. NO DEAD TIME.

If there is a song I like I will play it constantly on repeat. I played Paper Planes by MIA so much while on the reception desk at work that even clients commented that they were getting fed up of hearing it everytime they passed through.

You're too well organised. If I tried that, I'd end up putting bread in the kettle, pouring water on the toaster, then buttering the computer before trying to watch some porn on the microwave.

Me too. Shall we get married?

I am annoyingly tidy. I even tidy before its messy, just to ensure it doesn't get messy.

I do that too sometimes, think its taking some time for my brain to decode whatever they've originally said or something.

That made me laugh, perhaps you should try it more often to amuse all the folks in your household, to disapate the annoying habits.

I don't find my habits annoying though. So I fail to see the problem.

Once when flat sharing we had no bog roll and I used a slice of Mother's Pride white bread instead. It wasn't too bad, quite absorbent.
