To go along with the Pet Peeves thread - what are some of your quirks? (Which maybe drive someone else's entry in the Pet Peeves thread.... )

When sitting for any prolonged period of time I need to bounce my knee or I go crazy. Been like that since I was born I was told.

My phone volume goes by numbers. I cannot have it on an odd number - 4 is fine, 8 is OK, but God forbid I have my phone volume set on 7. Same way with car radio volume. these aren't quirks, they're signs of insanity

The clock in my bedroom is set ahead 15 minutes. I know it is set ahead. It does not cause me to get up any earlier.

I have to file things in chronological order. Any other organization system drives me nuts.

The clock in my bedroom is set ahead 15 minutes. I know it is set ahead. It does not cause me to get up any earlier. Mine is too. And my car clock is 4 minutes fast. This apparently causes great confusion for my children.

I can't use nail clippers. like, not just wont, but i dont know how. Apparently when i was a kid i hated them and made my mom use those little scissor nail things. then when i got older i just figured out how to use them on myself. I dont even own a pair of nail clippers and dont really understand how everyone else uses them without destroying their nails.

When I'm nervous or scared I count by 2's in my head but only up to 10.

When sitting for any prolonged period of time I need to bounce my knee or I go crazy. Been like that since I was born I was told. Same here but I don't have to be sitting for a prolong period. My knee will just go anyways. I don't even know its going half the time. Drives my wife nuts! Also, I have to have one foot out of the covers.

This could be extensive based on the personalities I've met in compliance in general...

This apparently causes great confusion for my children. The clock in my car is set ahead 5 minutes. If I am going to do something multiple times, I tend to make it multiples of 5.
