Let's face it: We all have weird habits. What are some of yours? One of my weird habits is whenever my family and I head to a hardware store like Lowe's or Home Depot, I head over to the paint section and put out of place paint swatches back into their correct places.

Lol, that's nice of you! If I went to Lowes/Home Depot more often I probably would too - I remember as a kid I would just stand in front of them and look at them a lot.

My weird habit though is I avoid eating the last corner of a sandwich if the bread is square. I've done it since childhood and I always just leave the last bite. I realized recently though that I could try eating the corners first and then eat inwards, but I haven't tried that yet.

at dinner, I always turn my plate so that the side the meat is on is the side that is the furthest away from me. I find it impossible to cut the meat otherwise.

if the bread of my sandwich is more toasted on one side than it is on the other, I always eat the more toasted side first and save the soft side for later.

we use old towels as bathmats, we have a small pile of old towels that we keep only for that purpose. whenever I go shower, I always toss the bathmat towel that is on the floor in the laundry and replace it with a fresh bathmat towel, no matter how recently it was replaced, I absolutely must have a clean one.

I can't draw without some kind of music or video playing in the background. speedruns and podcasts are my best friends.

always nearly putting the bread in the plate cabinet instead of the pantry

The only one I can think of that isn’t blatantly linked with a certain mental illness is eating food in order. Like, I have to eat one type at a time. The thought of mixing and matching has always and probably will always offend me. I eat the side dish / appetizer / what have you first then the sandwich or whatever. I hope that made sense

I've always had an odd habit of sticking out my tongue while I'm really focused on something. Whether it be video games or drawing, I always catch myself doing it. Don't know where I picked it up from.

That's very nice of you! I also do kind of the same but at the market, I organize the shopping baskets next to me when I'm in the middle of a line c:

I have a box with little mementos of places, people and events that took place in my past. These are very random objects, like a broken wrist watch, a single domino piece, a sleigh bell, a very tiny branch, etc. Every single object has a whole story behind it (some go more than a decade back!) and I treasure them because of that.

I started doing this when I was around six years old, and never stopped. I'm afraid someone will find it one day and throw it away thinking it's all trash lol.
