Bad Habits, Tics, Annoyances???

[betenoire]

I'd answer your questions, but I don't think that Nick wants me to tell you all about the annoying things that he does.

I feel more comfortable telling you the annoying things that I do that he hates, how's that?

I bite my nails. The sound makes him insane. When he tells me to stop biting my nails I always say something like "I'm not biting my nails, I'm scratching my teeth. They're very itchy." Apparently it isn't adorable when I say that. Huh.

I pop my gum. When Nick complains I make exaggerated attempts to chew quietly and still randomly snap the gum and go OOOPS really loudly. Apparently this also isn't adorable.

I lick my fingers instead of using a serviette. When Nick objects I say "Tastes delicious! Can't waste!" or "Serviettes aren't environmentally friendly!" Curiously, this is unadorable.

I have allergies and sometimes I (especially in the mornings) will randomly sniffle a little bit. I don't even realise I'm doing it. When Nick says "blow your nose already!" I will make a large production out of the nose blowing process. Again, not adorable.

I'm a real catch.

(Okay, I'll give you one thing that Nick does that annoys me. He reads maps IN PUBLIC. I can't stand that! I am a firm believer that letting the locals know you don't know exactly where you are and where you're going is like wearing a "Murder and/or Rob Me!" sign. I'm always like "You're going to get us both killed! Put that shit away!")
