    My body's all like "you need to eat fruit!" and I'm all like "here have some gummi bears!"

    :lol:

    I've been feeling this. And what's particularly puzzling is that I love fruit. But then I see a bag of Doritos and give that fresh pear a kick to the curb.

    With me, the fact that gummi bears are (allegedly) fruit flavored seems to be my stumbling block.

    Like Homer Simpson's logic that donuts are a serving of fruit, because "purple is a fruit"?

    When I receive change and then put dollar bills in my wallet -- ones, fives, tens, twenties, doesn't matter -- none of the corners can be folded. I smooth them all out before they go in.
    I'm the same way, plus ones go in the front slot, 5's and up, in order, in the back slot.

    I carry nail clippers with me at all times. Everyone thinks it's weird until they ask me to borrow them at some point. After that, they stop making fun, and some even convert to doing the same.
    Nothing wrong with that, but I haaaate when people cut their nails in public. If you go into a restroom, it's ok, but ugh, that's a sound that drives me nuts.

    No, I would never do that. You'd be surprised how handy they can be though. I've used them as makeshift scissors to cut something small, like a loose thread from a shirt or something, the nail file can double as a cutting knife for opening packages and stuff at work, etc. I love having them on me. I'm always finding new uses.

    I love little nail clippers and hoard them and try to carry them everywhere, but I lose them. Also, eyebrow tweezers, which are similarly multifunctional. Can't keep my fingers on them-- they disappear. It's very frustrating.

    Also, since we're discussing habits, I clip my fingernails as close to the quick as possible without actually drawing blood. I clip it close enough that it hurts afterward. I cannot stand to have any sort of long nail, I think because I'm paranoid about dirt getting under my fingernails. I feel like nails are, inherently, dirty.
    ...and the milk's in me.
