    1. I hate sleeping with the bedroom door open
    2. I dislike a lot of words, and avoid saying them!
    3. I pick the skin off the sides of my thumbs when im nervous
    4. Roseanne is my favorite tv show of all time!
    5. I dont like to look in the mirror

    I'm the same as 1 and 3. 2 confuses me; the only time I've heard of people saying that they avoid works if they taste bad, lol!

    Lol what??

    some people can taste words (it's a type of synesthesia) and I've had conversations with people who joke about words they avoid saying cuz they taste bad :P
