    I make up songs for my Lucy the basset hound. She does not sing back though.
  • Emily · 1 year ago

    I sing(loudly)to old classic rock songs....I am not very good though...If my kids are mis-behaving I just tell them I am going to sing and they become angels.

    I make funny faces and then take pictures using photobooth. Then delete them before anyone sees.
  • Brad Ruggles · 1 year ago
    Dude, I hope you don't put that gum back in your mouth when you're done.

    Sometimes I look at objects or people's eyes in a pattern... Like, if I'm looking at your eyes, I might look at the top of your right iris, then the top of your left iris. Then the bottom of your left, then the bottom of your right. And then back to home at the top of your right just to satisfy the OCD requirement. Geez, I'm weird.

    well now it's not your secret!
  • Steven · 1 year ago
    I bite my nails, but that's no secret. Heh, the gum thing is gross though, man. I'm sure I do plenty of gross things, though.
  • Matty · 1 year ago
    My baby sister and I both do this, though I don't ever recall teaching it to her. When we sit facing a window we close one eye and line some spot on the window or object in the foreground with a distant object; sort of like aiming a really big imaginary rifle. Since it sometimes requires some degree of focus, it gives the appearance that we are pirates thinking very deeply on the subject at hand.

    When asked what the heck I'm doing, I usually reply "nothing" quickly and change the subject. It's stupid but it's subconscious.

    oh man, i stretch my gum in public! grosses most of my friends out, some of them find it amusing though. the funny thing is that I don't realize that I' doing it until someone gives me "the stare" and then I just smile and keep on stretching the gum... I also wrap it around my finger or pretend to spit it to people (but that's just to my close friends, heh). I know, gross... but its FUN!
  • ryanguard · 1 year ago
    Only when I'm by myself:

    I sing. Like, loud singing. Like, I know why the neighbors look at me funny loud. Like, my poor dog has panic attacks because I break out in song at a moment's notice. I know this isn't too devious, but well... that's all I can think of that I feel like confessing with my name attached.

    Speaking of gum. One time I swallowed a piece of gum and 30 minutes later it came back after a burp. I kept it. Resurrection gum. But I lost it... it must have ascended to Heaven.

    I pick at my ears. It's gross and I wish I could stop. But they get crusty and so I pick at them. Then I flick the crust. Wherever. LOL! Not a secret anymore. Hey, now I have no more secrets. I'm free. Los, you set me free. Sweeet!! ;)
  • Roxx · 1 year ago
    I can out fart any man on the planet.

    Oh wait, that's not a secret.

    My people know that.

    Hmmm... I'll keep thinking.

    Maybe the secret is I'm proud of it???

    When I'm bored and driving I start playing with my gotee and then I start pulling out hairs that got missed by my beard trimmer.. ugh don't ask me why but I do..
  • Mark Artrip · 1 year ago
    Los I play with my gum too. I twirl it around my finger and my mom, mother-in-law, and wife all tell me I need to stop. Thank you for letting me know I am ok.
  • The Domestic Goddess · 1 year ago
    Let's see...
    I crack my knuckles. I pick my teeth with my fingernail after eating. I can't leave zits alone.

    Hey at least I don't stick boogers under my chair anymore. At least I don't think I do ;)
  • Steve Murphy · 1 year ago
    I pop my knees and hips... and it often sounds like I flautulated... but I didn't... I swear!
  • B-Lo · 1 year ago
    I eat sweets and I read too many blogs, then I pretend I am spiderman.
  • Clayman · 1 year ago
    Now, if I told you it wouldn't be a secret, would it?

    I have been caught unconsciously picking my nose...
  • Terrace Crawford · 1 year ago
    I stretch my gum too... but sometimes in public!
  • Jay Sellers · 1 year ago
    I touch the tip of my nose before picking up clothing off a rack at the mall. Might be a nervous habit, but what's there to be nervous about?
  • dionicio · 1 year ago
    pick my nose!......I know
  • Valtool · 1 year ago
    For no reason I can explain, I gave up gum about 20 years ago. It's not that I won't EVER chew it again, I just don't get any real pleasure from it. Weird.
  • Rachel · 1 year ago
    Man, some of you guys are gross...not to say that I don't share some of those habits with you all. I'm quite the secretive nose-picker/gas-passer myself. I once beat out a group of guys in a "farting contest." It was simultaneously glorious and humiliating. Not sure I'll ever attempt that again. :)

    In retrospect, I can't believe I admitted that.

    Dern bandwagon effect...
