One of my worst habits is I'll take one of those box cutters, and I'll constantly click the blade back and forth, like I'm doing it to calm me down. Never understood why. How about you?
 
Yeah, I bite my nails real bad sometimes.

did something similar. my clicker was a ball point pen. didn't realize I was even doing it or how much it was annoying a co-worker. we were in a faculty meeting when she literally grabbed onto my hand. I told her that within reason she should feel free to slap my hand if I was clicking a pen.
 
my bad habit was smoking... WAS! I smoked for many years and lots of cigarettes. then I woke up one morning with NO vision in my left eye. total black. no pain... drove myself to the ER. seems I had a retinal occlusion... a type of stroke. never really had a doctor before that. found out officially that I had high BP and cholesterol... no surprise. Dr said the BP and c could be managed with diet and medication, but that smoking was definitely a contributing factor. quit cold turkey. honestly, if someone came up with a truly safe cigarette that didn't cost a fortune... I'd probably try it. if someone walks buy smoking... that's a pleasant aroma to me. if someone walks into a room who obviously smokes... that rank smell is disgusting.
