Do you have any weird habits/do odd things that few others have/do?

I have a habit of stretching my mouth every so often (as if I'm yawning) because it feels good.

Also, I don't get nervous when performing/singing in front of an audience, but I do get nervous when recording.

Share your weird habits and character traits, PC!

If I get a sniff neck I wobble my head around, but I do it more than I need to because it usually makes an audible popping noise that even people across the room can hear and, I dunno, I just feel like I'm not finished until I get all the pops out.

Random humming seems to be one weird thing that I do. There are more I just can't think of them atm though. :/
I'm a silhouette, asking every now and then
Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?
I'm a silhouette, chasing rainbows on my own
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home.

Not sure if it's weird, more like odd. Every morning I listen to the national anthem, not just my country, USA, but just any random one, primarily my favorite of the week. I'm really obsessed with National Anthems and Flags. I listen to at least 30 every day. Even if my pronunciation (non English/Spanish countries) is horrible, I always attempt to sing them.


I always call "Soccer" by the correct term "Football", no one in my family minds, when speaking with other soccer fans, it always turns into a short argument.

I smile when I'm nervous, and I pick at my lips. I also do this sort of noodly-arm gesture when I'm excited occasionally.

I have this strange habit of playing with pillow cases. Like, I've been doing it since I was young, and I basically twist up part of it to make a sharp point (so no silky pillow cases...hate those because of this lol) and I rub it on my finger. That's all haha. I don't know anyone else that does this. I do this whenever I have a pillow nearby too. I like...can't NOT do it I guess.

I also rub my tongue on this chipped tooth in the back of my mouth, so it looks like my mouth is open all the time. I don't even realize I'm doing it usually haha so I look stupid quite often. :(

The skin right where those two tendons (I think it's a tendon?) stretch up into your neck from your collarbone is really stretchy for me, I can pull it out really far compared to other people I know. When I'm not thinking I tend to grab that skin and just mess with it. I wonder if it freaks people out.

I used to do that all the time, and now I have a sudden urge to keep doing it now. Damn you!

I lightly "slap" my own face or scalp, and I have this habit of sometimes twitching my nose or wiggling my legs slightly from left to right.

I used to crack my jaw to the side because it felt neat and made a popping sound. But because I have a problem with my jaw (some things aren't connected properly), I had to stop, as it was probably making it worse.
I also used to have a tendency to dig my nails into my skin when I was stressed or frustrated (which led to a problem with self-harm).
Along with (and this one is current) chewing the skin off of my lip. It's weird but my lips are always dried and (added bonus) they don't look quite as bad when I do it.

Edit-
Adding a few more:

-Chewing on my tongue (doesn't hurt much but it feels neat)
-Picking at the skin at a certain part of my thumb (which hurts)
-Cracking my knuckles (pretty common, though)
-Panicking when my mom calls me in a way that seems like I've done something wrong (which is because of hiding my self-harm problem from her)
I can't think of a good signature.

Wow, I do the exact same thing (except my jaw has to go inward for me to hear anything)

I don't have a whole bunch of quirks, but I tend to contort my nose in a bunch of strange directions when it itches instead of rub my palm/side of my hand on the outside like I see a lot of people do. I also have this tendency to play with my ears when I'm bored. Totally subconsciously, I swear!

Might not be weird, but I like to keep my hands inside the sleeves of my shirt/jacket the majority of the time. Not like completely inside the sleeve, just halfway, so half of my hand is sticking out.
