We always hear about people’s bad habits but what’s your good habit? Mine is whenever I have a meal that has vegetables in it I always eat that first. That way I get it out if the way then I can enjoy the rest of meal without having to worry about eating it.
I usally walk everywhere(if its further away than five km i would go by bicycle)
Taking off my shoes at the entrance of my home and get out of street clothes.
I we ar my PPE. Most commonly eye and ear protection but I’ll wear a dust mask when routing or sanding, etc. Allowing onesself to be injured in the shop is unethical.
I do yoga twice a week
I always get my coffee ready for the next day before I go to bed. Makes it easier to wake up on time when you know you have fresh coffee waiting!
Washing hands…
Its impossible to not wash the hand after something dirty or when going from outside to inside.
I don’t understand your explanation of your habit. It comes off as you don’t like vegetables and are choking them down to get to what you like. Is that a correct interpretation? My wife just made the best dinner and all three items were green vegetables.
It’s not that I don’t like them but if I have a choice of eating vegetables VS eating a steak, I’d rather eat the steak
That’s what I thought too
I always finish what I sta
Oh shit, it’s Candleja-
Is this a wild Candlejack reference? Better tell everyone to avoid saying Candlejack. Hey everyone! Don’t say Candleja–
Variants like “scandal jacker” also trigger it and-
Candlejack Candlejack Candlejack
I’m gonna need more rope!
Make my bed every morning.
Brush my teeth no matter how tired or sad I get.
Genuinely asking, why is making your bed a good thing?
Makes you feel tidy, visually less cluttered, it’s a great small action to do to warm up your mind in the morning that won’t aggravate you to stir your brain awake. It just feels good to have a nice made and good looking bed when looking at the room and coming home for the day. It’s one little aspect of feeling like your better organized. For me it works.
Interesting. For me it kind of doea the opposite. I get it about keeping the room tidy, and I agree with that. The bed though, it just makes me feel unwelcomed. Like you’re only supposed to look, no touching allowed. Whereas my bed feels inviting and welcoming.
I never hit snooze. I get up once my alarm goes off.
Probably helps that I sleep like absolute shit and was already tossing and turning anyway lol
I never get up without snoozing at least once, even if I’m already awake
oh dude, me too.
Sad high five o/\o
Sad high five indeed lol
I floss everyday.
Same. After years of neglect, I finally had everything fixed at the same time. After 2 years of dental work and thousands spent out-of-pocket, I now floss and brush religiously.
Self-study and exercise. I read Marxist-Leninist theory (as well as scientific articles and other non-fiction that interests me) every day, and work out 4 times a week. Both have significantly improved my life.
How have they improved your life?
Reading theory helps me understand the world around me. It keeps me realistically optimistic, without spiraling into doomerism or naive optimism. Reading scientific articles on space, tech, etc keep me curious and ever-learning.
Working out makes me feel better, have more mental clarity, and more energy. It’s self-satisfying. It isn’t necessary for everyone, but I enjoy it and the feelings it gives me. My attitude and mood improves with it.
Sounds nice! Thanks for sharing
No problem!
Returning the shopping cart
I was a carry-out at my local hardware store for a few years in college. I brought carts in from the corrals and helped people load heavy stuff. I’ve seen and been victim to the damage caused when a rogue cart catches the wind and fucks off down the parking lot. People that leave their cart not in a corral or inside disgust me more than more most lazy people.
You’re my hero, dude.
Thank you. I couldn’t figure out anything I do right, but this is the thing I always do.
We are good people!
I tell people directly when I appreciate something they did.
If I make a typo, rather than autocorrecting or deleting a few characters I delete the whole word and re-type it from the beginning. That way the correct spelling gets into my muscle memory and I’m much less likely to make the typo again in the future.
One of us! Also for anyone who doesn’t know, you can do ctrl+backspace to instantly delete the entire word. It’s usually faster to do that and retype it than it is to hit backspace precisely enough times to get to the typo!
If I make a typo, I try to keep as many of the letters on the page as possible - no need to throw them away and use new ones. Waste not.
This. Been doing this for decades and it’s great. Still fuck certain words up for some reason tho. Separate, people, etc.
“ie” vs “ei” are my kryptonite. e.g. receive, sieve.
I after E except after C and when sounded like A as in neighbor and weigh (and a thousand other exceptions)
Or whenever I please, as in feisty and seize!
and a thousand other exception
👆 🤦♂️ 🤣
Yup, I get seize backwards a lot cause it violates the i before e except after c rule.
Maybe if you think real hard about a person going into a seizure and flinging themselves backwards, it’ll pop back in your head the next time you go to type “seize” and help you remember.
I mean I know how it’s spelled, I recognize it when I get it backwards, it’s just muscle-memory fucks me about half the time.
