I can’t eat things strange textures, like eggs, or veggie meat.
I can’t have lights, music, or the tv on when I want to sleep, but have to have a fan running.
I don’t like noticing a random piece of grass on my feet.
I have to have some part of me moving at all times.
I bite my lip.
I don’t drink milk or water in the mornings. They taste funny.
I can’t drink water from a faucet.
I can’t chew chewable pills. Or take drinkable meds. Like Nyquil liquid.

Hmmm… my quirks…
-If I touch something by accident, I have to touch it with the opposite body part/side of my body which can be a bad thing when I’ve touched something hot/spiky.
-I seperate things whilst eating them, it takes forever for me to eat jaffa cakes…
-I have panic attacks when cooking about the food being cooked too fast/too slow/undercooked/too dark/too light. I’m drenched in sweat by the end of cooking sausages.
-I like to have a hot and cold drink at the same time.
-I eat frozen peas and dry spaghetti.
-If I’m away from home I talk to my cat/horses through the phone [during a converstaion with my mum] and have started to make my boyfriend do it.
-I use my feet to pick objects up off the floor… a lot…
-I still like making dens.
-I take photographs of everything because I have such a terrible memory and like to document my life.
-My computer is organised into about a million different files which are within files, which are within files, which are withi…
-I write in a microscopic size.
-I range between having days when I do nothing productive to days where I sort out my entire life in an hour.
-I’m so tidy that I’m messy, when I tidy my room it can take days because everything MUST have IT’S OWN SPECIAL PLACE.
-I hate wearing matching socks or unmatching underwear
-I like my fizzy drinks to be slightly flat and will shake them until they are [and my boyfriend hates his drinks to be even a little flat so it works well], also I quite enjoy if a can of fizzy drink has been left in the sun so it is hot but still fizzy – wierd burning/tingling/painful fizzy feeling as you drink it.
-I hate the sound of unglazed pottery being moved over other unglazed pottery [like if a pottery cup is turned in it's saucer].
-If my makeup goes on badly it ruins my whole day.
And that’s not even scraping the surface…
Sorry for attacking your comment space and I know this is a bit late but I’ve just come across your blog and so I’m now going through every article. [Is it even called an article? A section? You know what I mean]. Oh there’s another quirk – I prefer square brackets to normal ones – they just seem nicer.

Nothing wrong with being individual and cheeky…that’s what I think quirky means anyway.

This is one of the greatest post I’ve ever read! Ok, here we go:
I am terrified of cats and house flies. Kittens are worse than large cats
I iron and starch my sheets, and will not allow anyone in my bed unless they’ve bathed or showered
I have to have all labels facing the front
I will not go to the bathroom in a place where the paper end is coming under the roll..had to be over the top or I’ll just hold it
I cannot stand french pedicures
I love being engaged, and do it as often as possible, but can’t imagine actually going through with marriage. Maybe some day
Bad grammar, strange smells and bad shoes are deal breakers
I have a nose like a beagle and actually have an x I refer to as “Swingset-hands,” as his hands had a metalic/sweaty smell. Deal breaker, unfortunately.

I have to do a 10,000 word essay, about anything, (fiction of course) and I need to find quirks for my protagonist. And since everyone else is doing one, I thought I’d do one too. Okay, here it goes.

1) I hate it when people (emails only) use numbers for words. For instance, 4= for, 2=too or to, etc.
2) I HATE typo’s in books.
3) Every time I watch a new movie, I have to watch it enough to memorize at least one full scene.
4) I love Italian food, most of which include tomato products, but I hate raw tomatos.
5) I don’t know if this is a quirk or not, but I hate mashed potatos. (Makes it really hard at Christmas and Thanksgiving)
6) When i’m alone, I read my favorite parts of books out loud.

That’s all I can think of! I’m sure there’s more, though. =)

im awkward at holding hands. i love awkward angles. i cant draw a straight line. when i eat a twix bar, i have to take off the side chocolate, then the top chocolate and caramel, and then the cookie. i also eat cheesecake by scraping it off on my fork, layer by layer, until i reach the graham cracker at the bottom. im addicted to gum. i like the number 72. i have a nose fetish. i also love hands. i collect hats. i kill plants. i save fish that are dying in walmart’s tanks. i sleep talk, sometimes in other languages. i love the smell of cigarettes, even though im an asthmatic. if im sitting at my desk, im almost always sitting indian style. i love periods (as in, the punctuation). i can only read at night. i randomely get claustrophobic and have to leave the house. i love socks, although i almost never wear them. i love hanging pictures upside-down or sideways, whatever way is incorrect. im way too literal of a person for math. i name inanimate objects. if i meet a guy and i cant remember his name, i call him oliver or bernard. strangely enough, i do not do this for girls i meet. im really good at naming things.
i know i have a million others, but thats about all i can think of for now

I don’t like anything round. I’m an artist and I will not design anything with round edges. I just hate circles! I also don’t like men with rounded features of any kind, like in the nose or chin.

[...] or 3 Things, Bliss, Le Love (can’t help going here and smiling), listing quirks over at Cupcakes & Cashmere…(a quirk DH pointed out tonight while we rocked it in the basement gym–3 miles in 24:15 [...]

- I can’t sleep in long pyjamas, even in winter. I can’t stand how the pants always end up twisted round my knees.
- Bald heads really freak me out.
- I love winter. It makes me ridiculously happy to see white stuff falling from the sky.
- When I’m wearing gloves, I have to tuck the sleeves of the layer under my coat into them.
- I’m vegetarian and the smell of cooking meat knocks me sick.
- I can’t go to bed without my retainers. I don’t have to wear them any more, but I hate not doing.
- I hate answering the door when I’m home alone. If I see anyone walk past my house, I get really nervous that they’re going to come and knock on the door.
- Hairs not attached to someone’s head freak me out (you know when they get stuck to you in the shower? Ewww!)

Wow, I have a lot of strange little quirks! And there are more!

I get totally freaked out when my husband uses my towel after showering. It is so disgusting. I can share toothbrushes and drinking glasses but never towels… never!

Gina — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 14:00:25 +0000

this is such a cute idea! i would say some of my quirks are:
1) i HAVE to wash my face before i go to bed or i wony be able to sleep…. its like a ocd thing.
2) ill only drink milk if theres ice in it
3)i always sneeze 3 times in a row
4) once i get home i always take my shoes off…. it feels weird to me to walk around my own house in shoes
5) i absolutly despise cucumbers and tomatoes.. the smell and everything
6) i love rasberry flavored yogert, icecream etc.. but hate actual rasberries
thats all i can think of for now

Hmm. I get, “You are the quirkiest person I know” an awful lot. Take it as a compliment, smile, and thank the other person.

As for describing my quirks, I don’t know where to begin…

lol, I’m a S1/S2 SATC cringer too and can’t stand loud people on cell phones or slow drivers. Argh!!!

By: Carly

Carly — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 22:06:13 +0000

100% correct about SATC.

- I moisturize my hands every 30minutes, and then apply lipbalm.
- I hold my breath when walking past people in shops.
- It makes me feel sick if i or anyone touches my belly button.
- I won’t eat meat anywhere apart from home.
- I have to have a bottle water with me all of the time.

1. I am addicted to my neutrogena lip blam and apply it every 20 mins – I absolutely have to have it – even when I moved to the U.K and they didn’t have exactly the same kind, I shipped it over.
2. I put on shoes on the right feet first, always.
3. I like whoever I am with to be on my left. Walking, in bed, at the movies, always on my left.
4. Pictures of crescent moons with faces scare me – if they talk as well I completely have to run and hide away from it.
5. It drives me mad to hear the sound of someone flicking their nails or cutting them – it drives me crazy!
6. If something unhappy or bad happened the first time I wear a new outfit I never wear it again because it’s obviously a bad luck getup – very expensive superstition but hey I can’t risk these things!

I love a natural breeze but hate air conditioning blowing on me directly.
I eat bananas with a fork and a knife.
I do not make my bed in the morning, yet I cannot get into bed without it being made.
I really hate blueberries and cantaloupe. Like, madly deeply passionately violently hate them. But I love fruit! (Normal fruit that doesn’t taste like GROSS, the definition.)
The sound of pencils on paper makes my teeth hurt. Holy cow I can hardly type this. Ooooh, achy teeth.
When someone walks by me, my instinct is to inhale…through my nose…and smell them. I make a lot of judgments about someone based on scent. So take a shower, people!
No one smells better than my 11 month old baby. There’s something about J&J shampoo, ginger snaps & formula…mmmmm….

Oh yeah. And I’m obsessed with chocolate milk.
See? You ain’t the only one!

That picture makes me want to laugh – it’s really too cute. I wonder if I put spaghetti on my cats’ faces if they would have the same happy reaction.

I get obsessed with good food. If I have really good tacos, salsa and chips or some other kind of really tasty meal, I’ll want to eat it and only it for weeks. It’s a sickness – an enjoyable one.

Movies on TV : There are certain movies – Sleepless in Seattle, Jurassic Park, Pride & Prejudice, Bridget Jones – that I’ll stop and watch on tv, even though I own them on dvd. Then I’ll proceed to watch that specific movie for several days. I’ll pop in the dvd before bed or while I’m reading. Sometimes, I just watch certain scenes or have it on as background noise. It is odd but enjoyable. =)

If I put clean sheets on my bed at night, I have to make the bed perfectly – even if I’m going to bed right after I make it. =)
