Does anyone have a habit, trait, quirk that is perfectly harmless in itself, nobody else would ever notice, is utterly trivial, but it irritates the hell out of you that you do it, and can't stop doing it?
Mine is when I'm coming to the end of a walk and I get my door key out of my pocket when I'm still about 100m from my front door. Every time without fail. Then I get paranoid that I'm going to drop it down one of the road drains with the metal grills so I put my finger through the keyring to make sure I don't. Why can't I just leave it in my pocket until I reach the front door? Sometimes I try to force myself to do so but my hand keeps going in and out of my pocket involuntarily. Of course there's a chance it's not an ASD thing at all and I'm just weird.
Yes, I have a unwieldy prolix vocabulary, that I both need to think and need because I enjoy it, and I never seem to change..
Yep. I write books in my spare time and struggle not to overdo the adjectives.
