Nail-biting is a common nervous habit, but it can have negative consequences for your nails and overall oral health. It’s a tough habit to break, but using nail polish or other deterrents may help curb the urge.

11. Sniffing Your Own Armpits

Had a full day of hard work, or maybe after a round of catch in the park? There’s got to be a better way to check if you’re ripe or not than sticking your nose in your own pit. The quick sniff test, as they call it, ain’t right!

10. The Strange Intrigue of Eating in Bathrooms

One thing I can’t wrap my head around is folks eating in the bathroom. Hearing about it just gives me the heebie-jeebies. I mean seriously, ain’t there better places to have your meal?Ā 

9. Food from the Floor Consumption

I don’t care who you are or where you’re from. Picking up that bit of chicken nugget from the dirty floor and popping it back into your mouth, ain’t okay. You’d think this habit would stay in pre-school, but surprisingly, plenty of grown folks do it too.Ā 

8. Picking Boogers

Picking boogers – a universal, yet icky fact of life. Although it might sound gross, it’s actually one of the most common disgusting habits out there.Ā 

7. Denying Public Farting

Public farting – no one admits to it, but it happens more often than you think. It’s an unspoken social faux pas, but hey, we’ve all been there, and it’s a natural body function after all.

6. Tossing Bathing Days to the Wind

Next on the list is the occasional temptation of skipping a day or two of bathing. Not the most hygienic move, certainly, but sometimes the siren call of lounging around and letting the deodorant do its work can be too strong to resist.

5. The Dreaded Laundry Sniffs

Nothing puts your nose to the test like figuring out if your clothes are clean or not. Whether it’s underwear or shirts, many of us have been guilty of using our fingers after touching our clothes to check if they pass the smell test.

4. Clipping Your Toenails Somewhere InappropriateĀ

The cringe-worthy habit of clipping toenails in inappropriate places. Let’s face it, no one wants to see a nose picker, let alone someone scattering toenail clippings around like confetti. Yikes!

3. No-Hand Wash Post Toilet Use

You know, not washing your mitts after using the toilet is one habit that’s not just tolerable, it’s a downright spreader of those little buggers we call germs.

2. Peeing in the Shower

Then there’s the age-old question of whether going on about your business – and by business I mean peeing – in the shower is as nasty as we reckon.

So there we have it – a list of habits that are about as appealing as finding half a worm in an apple.Ā
