You will know what I'm on about in a minute (when I start going on about it tbh...) but first, I'd just like to say; we all have them, things we start doing and continue to do and can't stop doing them (there you go, I started going on about it now) and when it's done we wish we had either A) stopped at a sensible point or B) never bloody started it in the first place.
So, now we are all clear about what I am on about, here is my list of things I can't stop once started:
Biting a nail, 'll just skim a bit off the sides then wouldn't you know it I need to take a bit off the other side and so on and so forth...
On the same note, cutting my bangs, thought luckily I have weird hair so it doesn't matter too much.
Eating pringles (well, tbh eating anything tasty) it truely is a case of thou shalt not stoppeth once thou poppeth (hehe that sounded funny)
Chewing and ultimately biting off, thus causing great pain, that little bit of skin on middle of the front of my top lip. Especially when my lips are chapped and I just grab it with my teeth and I'm thinking "STOOOP it's really going to hurt!!" and another bit of me is going "Aaargh, I know I know!!!" and then another part of me is going *gnaw gnaw chew chew* "Muwahahaaha!!"
Using commas, I can't help it I tend not to want to actually commit to finishing a sentence, so I just use loads of commas, or if I'm feeling a bit dangerous i'll semi colonate the sucka; like that or if I am feeling a bit james t kirkish I'll leave a really long pause and do thiis... but none of it is actually finishing a sodding sentence!
An argument where I know, (ooh comma useage again) 100% undoubtedly that I am right, I hate to leave an argument where the other person thinks they are right when they are, in actual fact, wrong...unless it's about my use of commas or pringle addiction then I'll just change the topic completely and ignore it.
Digging a hole. I'm sure we've all done this (ooh look I used a full stop there, yay me!) You know when you say something and it's like OMG I cannot believe that just came out of my mouth!! and yet I keep talking...
Reading, I'll be knackered but I'll say "oh just one more page...OK till the end of the chapter...argh god it's a cliff hanger, dammit OK so just till the end of this chapter..." and rinse and repeat and then it's like 11pm (don't laugh, thats late for me) and I know I will feel like death the next day.
So, that's my little list of 'things I wish I could stop but I can't', I didn't go into all my other little quirks and superstitions and OCD behaviours because tbh that's a whole nother kettle of worms, but I'd like to see if and what you guys do that you know will end up badly but you keep on doing it anyway...why? because I'm nosey.
