Bad Habits that you'd like to give up
One bad habit that I have that I hate is the way I bite the inside of my lip and mouth. It's just like a nervous habit that I've always had.

Anyone else struggle with this? What are your bad habits?

1. Tapping my fingers along with stuff.
Dialogue on tv, music, sounds... I do it without thinking and when people notice I get embarassed. It's really weird.

4. My name's shortbus, and I'm a compulsive Lounge-stalker.
I'd like to be able to exercise more restraint. Really, I would. But whenever anyone mentions restraint, we inevitably get started on the vast "rope v steel handcuffs" debate, which leads to talk of spankings, and then that takes us directly into thread-locking territory.

6. This rather strange notion
that anything really exists, including me.

Somehow, they convinced me of that as a child and I have not been able to shake it.

7. I chew my fingernails/cuticles
I hate it, but I can't seem to stop. Even when it makes my fingers bleed. It sucks

8. I used to also.
Getting manicures cured me. The nicer my nails looked, the less I wanted to chew.

10. Sarcasm. I've really tried. I have. It's tough. Darm!
Sarcasm can be witty and funny, but also, it can hurt.
So many people don't "get" it and then... ugh!
I've just got to stop!
Really.
I mean it.
Seriously.
Stop me before I sarc again.

11. Being here, right now, during work.
It's a downright addiction.
