Let's see...
There's probably a lot more but I can't remember right now.
- I can only sleep comfortably on my stomach
- The volume on the TV must have either a 0, 2, 5 or an 8
- No matter what, I measure everything when I graph something (can be real hell during a test)
- I love symmetry and equality, as well as a very large mixture of colour (why I don't like the Graphite theme)
- I used to always spit only three times while brushing my teeth, once after every area (brush the front, bottom, then top). I still kinda do now.
- I put three dots after almost everything (...). Just read my blog and you'll see it a lot.

If there is no cheese or any topping on pizza, what is left? Crust?
I'm one of those guys who has to have everything at right angles on his desk. Yeah, I know...
Woof, Woof - Dawg
Since when is "Reasons for living" a sentence?
I would think that its safe to say we all have quirks.
I see your point though...
As far as I know, I'm not physically capable of crying. And haven't been for a long time. I think it has something to do with leaving my disposable contacts in for months at a time.
i have a ton of quirks (especially according to my girlfriend)
- under no circumstances can i listen to another person have a bowel movement. i will leave the restroom or put my fingers in my ears if thats about to happen
-until recently, i could never sit in the back seat of a car, while i did finally get over this it does make me a bit tense; previous to about a year ago i had not been in the back seat of a car in about 12 years.
-i hate overhead lighting in my house
-i have my coffee with 3 splenda packets and 2 sugar packets.
-at home i will not drink water out of a glass, only a bottle; even if its bottled water poured into a glass, can't do it.

I do the same thing too!
when ever I'm nervous and forced to speak (like at a presentations etc) i get a foriegn accent. and its really strong too, people who dont know me come up and ask where i'm from and i'm like florida?
I tend to drum out rhythms to songs on things with my fingers if I'm just sitting around. This includes girlfriends' shoulders/legs, and it tends to annoy them, but I don't really notice I'm doing it until it's pointed out...
No two foods can be on my plate at once.
At restaurants i get 2-4 smaller plates. At home, I serve myself one thing at a time, rinse my plate and get more food. None of which can contain animal products.
I can't listen to an entire song in a social situation.
I chain smoke when nervous.
And, lastly, I talk. Alot.

- I spend the first 20 minutes at work perfectly aligning my dual monitors, with the left one facing head on and the right one on a ~10 degree angle.
- When eating, I must complete all of one food item before moving on to another, and can only drink in between items (unless choking).
- I wash my hands about 20 times a day, although I'm not a germophobe. As a teenager I worked at a Subway for so long it became habit forming.
- I am constantly planning climbing routes on any vertical surface that could potentially be climbed that is under 20m tall.
I'm sure there are more. I'm a pretty quirky guy.
I'm picturing a gathering of all you folks...pretty entertaining.
Is that what London Picnic is like?

I like to eat certain foods on certain days at certain times with certain utensils. I know I'm weird
i can't put a stream of mustard on a sandwich like ~~~~~~~~ <-- that
it has to be be little drops . . . . . . or else i will scrape it all off.
I can't watch a movie at home (or at a friends)without doing something else at the same time (surfing the web, playing a video game, reading something mindless) or else I just fidget around till I find something to do.... feels like such a waste of time I suppose.
I NEED a fan on to sleep, I freak out without the hummmmm of one (in a pinch, music with my headphones on works)
