My car eats tons of gas because I no matter where I go or how short the drive, I can't stop myself from repeated short bursts of acceleration just to hear the turbo spool and then pshewwww. Does that count?

I don't think this counts....turbo spools are allowed here.

Of course I'm the weirdo on here who only sleeps 4 hours on a good night.
Been like that my whole life.

Miss my freshman days where I could throw down hard, get back at 3-4am and make it showered, presentable, and hungover as shit to my 8am. A coffee and a good breakfast at around 9.30 would fix the whole thing Now it feels like I need to take a day off to fully recover |

Dr. told me that some people require less, some require more and to listen to my body. I try to be in bed between 10:00-11:00pm...and I am always waking up right before 3:00am. If I try to stay in bed, I get a headache. However when I get up...I feel fully rested and never have any issues during the day. I just go with it.

I used to bite my nails a lot when I was younger. I toned it down by buying this clear nail polish that makes your nails taste super bitter. I still did it as an adult but not as bad, my fingers didn't look torn to shit but at the same time I never used a nail clipper.
with this covid thing I finally gave it up for the most part. sooo nice having them now. I was messing with those little push pins to keep the fender liners on the other day and having some nails made life so much easier. It also helps a lot with typing at work

This will sound like a cop out but as they say the struggle is real.
I genuinely wish I wasn't such a picky fuck about (nearly) everything. My entire life I've been cursed with a hyper attention to detail. I can remember being picky about the particular damn crayons I had as a small child... I remember being picky about the fucking beachball I wanted to buy on vacation as a little kid. I can go on and on. It continues to this day. Honestly I really feel it's a burden. When I find something I'm not picky about... spirits is a good example... i love it. People will often start telling me to try this or that high-end spirit and I literally tell them I'm not interested. A true example of ignorance being bliss. It feels like such a relief to not give a damn about something for once. On a positive note I've leveraged this hyper awareness into a career. I have used this aspect of my personality successfully during my time working in audio engineering and music production; and have continued to use it to this day while working for a high-end loudspeaker manufacturer. That's the best I can do, right?

I twirl my hair, ever since I was a kid. Honestly I think it might be genetic or some shit because I've noticed my uncle do it also. Anyways if I'm watching TV or just sitting not doing anything with my hands I start twirling, I don't even know I'm doing it half the time. It relaxes me, sitting watching TV or something without twirling y just excruciating.
Now honestly I don't much give a shit about it, doesn't bother me per say, no real health effects or anything from it. However I'm getting pretty bald up top and I would LOVE to just shave it all off, the only reason I don't is because of the twirling. |

Same here....I'm OCD about a lot of stuff. I like "order". I can multi-task with the best of them, and deal with daily emergencies at work with no issues, but it still gets under my skin when something doesn't go as it should logically thinking. We like to joke that the Law of Physics doesn't apply here at work. Also I have been known to take an itinerary on vacation...although I finally stopped that a couple of years ago.

But the gym was great around 3:30am or so. No one there to bother me. Now it's do some workout routines with the stuff I have, read,.....and honestly go to work. I will just "pop" in at a random hour to see what's going on, and what the guys are doing. If I have something to work on with the cars, I will do that. But I'm respectful of my neighbors. So that is usually saved for the weekend.

This is 💯 me! I sit down and immediately rearrange the table. If people are sitting next to us I put it on the floor. I don't need some mini candle for mood lighting. It's really bad at nicer restaurants when they have a formal place setting with water and wine glasses. I want to rip it all off the table to a bare minimum. |
