I really think that, as humans, our perfection lies in the so many little imperfections that make us different and unique. Among those are our habits and fears.
I am terrified of balloons! The sound of a balloon being blown up makes me jump up and hit the ceiling! Also, bees, maybe coz I've never been stung by one?

Bad habits: here's a nasty one: I'm a heavy smoker. And I nibble, not my nails, but the skin around them (I know, Yuck!)

So come on, let out the dirty secrets ;)

Greetings,

Fears: I fear being powerless, in my job, i'm a take control kind a guy, it scares me to have to let faith run the show. I'm afraid of stupid people. I've seen too many of them (see my detective bio) and am afraid of what they can do...

Bad habits: Lose patience around stupid people. Have really bad habit of snooping where I shouldn't be. Spend too much time trying to take over the world.

Bad habits: procrastination, procrastination, procras.....heck its to long to type one more time, I'll finish it later.

Fears: As soon as I post a thread to my favorites pick it gets hijacked. Also I am scared silly of heights, so much so that I hold my breath and nearly pass out when I'm up somewhere high. Not to smart.

Wow this thread has been re-hi-jacked!

Ok, bad habits: I'm too aggressive behind the wheel, I bite my nails and I am a bit of a pedant (can you even be a bit of a pedant?)

Fears: Nothing much, but large blood injuries are definitely off putting.

Bad Habit:

Thinking that moderators will actually keep threads on topic and not let people high jack them.

wow I've been missing out on so much here! Nice bumping Crunch!

I hear ya on the static electricity thing. It gets so bad sometimes that it happens BEFORE I touch anything in the winter and a scary thunder bolt shoots from the object to my hand! Yikes!

Still a faithful smoker, still nibble the skin around my nails, fear balloons even more now coz of all the holidays.

New bad habit: I talk to objects, and argue with them.

And Crunch, you can bump me anytime !

Someone should start a fetish thread! ... I'm gonna leave, before I start hijacking my own... *starts talking to the thread*

Okay. One little piece...just one.

I have an irrational fear of tornados. Have my whole life. I've never been in one, but I have always had terrible nightmares of them. Wake up shaking sometimes still from them.
