What's the wankiest thing you'll admit to doing?

Inspired by this AIBU thread and Sunday lunch.

When I have a particularly large parsnip to prepare, I enjoy waving it around like a club and pretending to be a caveman first.

I do not understand why people do not hang the bog paper the correct way - with the open end coming over the top of the paper rather than underneath it.
There are sound reasons for this. Hygiene!

I refer to the hardware shop as the iron-mong-GERY and the sewing shop as the haber-dash-ERY. I think the pronunciation has something to do with Terry Prachett, but, frankly, I think using the words haberdashery and ironmongery is a bit wanky however I pronounce them.
I also have very specific cups for tea and coffee and only drink freshly ground coffee made in a cafetiere. I always take my coffee, cafetiere and cup on holiday with me. I think this is normal.

We take the cafetière and bone china coffee mugs away too, plus our preferred brand of coffee. We draw the line at the grinder, though, and have to lower ourselves and take ready ground coffee rather than beans….

My friend called me wanky because I'll only buy organic cotton school shirts for my DSs.

Put my husband's worn pants by his door where I put the clean laundry if he hasn't put them in the basket.

I put them on his pillow.

I make sushi at home for dinner once a week, and then DS(9) takes it in for packed lunch the next day.

I cringe every time, but he bloody loves it. 🙈

Bet it’s much fresher and tastier than the supermarket sushi.

personally I wouldn’t think you were wanky for this
