AIBU to dare you to confess your disgusting habits? Just a bit of light hearted fun Grin

I chew the inside of my cheeks until they're ragged.

My dh used to do this until his dentist told him it is considered a potential risk factor for oral cancers.

I wear my bras for WEEKS before washing them. It’s only when they smell that I wash them. Blush

Same with bed sheets.

I admit I'm a nose picker so glad not only one, I have to wash hands after toilet working in healthcare it's essential spend so much time washing hands.
For the people who use Tupperware to have a wee there is a brilliant thing (at work we call it a She Wee) basically a plastic urine bottle that has a special spout for ladies to use has lid , best thing ever bought lol used for camping recently as always need loo.at stupid o clock and too far from camp toilets

I dribble when I sleep, and I love the pungent scent of it and will have a lie in to sniff my drool.

This one is hilarious 😂
I'm a dribbler too and while I don't lie in or sniff the drool I weirdly like the smell

lboogy · 13/09/2019 04:04

I'm a skin picker. Mine or the DH and I like grinding it up in my teeth. Same with nails

SandyGusset · 13/09/2019 04:32

@Jozen OMG me too. It comes out like a little Pilar of cheese!

LidoDeck · 13/09/2019 04:36

Yeah see this whole thread is why norovirus and the likes spreads out of control. Not. Washing. Your goddamn HANDS.

Parkmama · 13/09/2019 04:38

I didn't even know tonsil stones existed until reading this post, been looking at images of them for ages now - fascinating!! Does anyone else have tonsil stones?! I might start a thread about them! Grin

Feliciaxxx · 13/09/2019 05:43

God this has made me laugh!! Def do the dog eye bogey thing - I stick them on the end of his nose until he licks them off. We used to have terriers that would get scabs from rootling around in the undergrowth and we'd (me & DD)pick them off & feed them to them - they'd go mad for them! I am a compulsive scab picker on myself and chew them up. OH has a cyst on his knee that fills up and then he lets me squeeze it. Which reminds me it must be time for a check of it : )

womenspeakout · 13/09/2019 08:00

Oh, a few posts have reminded me.

I had a huge verruca when I was young on the side of my foot. It was like a cone. The doctors couldn't get rid of it. One day I just sat there and picked it down to the root, I pulled it and it went afterwards.

Same thing, I had a wart that kept coming up on my nose and I'd pick it and it would bleed and then come back. One night I was staying up watching something picking it, but I carried on to the point it hurt so much I couldn't touch it, kept going, pushed past it, must have gotten the root as it went and hasn't been back in two years since.

What is this- confessions anonymous ? We all have those habits we do in private, and that's where they belong, Contributors to this thread sound needy. If people want to change thee habits they can, and will, when they decide to do something about it.

Tammyxxx · 13/09/2019 10:52

My cat like to lick my earwax !!!!!!!

MittsMajuna · 13/09/2019 10:56

Why would you eat your own body Confused

tillytrotter1 · 13/09/2019 11:15

And I enjoy weeing out of doors
I do this when I'm gardening, especially at the far end of the garden, it's not overlooked at all and I don't see the need to go inside, remove shoes etc to use the loo.
I also remove my t-shirt if it gets too warm, my bra is more substantial than many bikinis and if anyone wants to come into the garden unbidden to see my 71 year old self then I feel sorry for them!

Mrseds · 13/09/2019 11:41

I love a good old nose pick and like rolling it in my fingers, I bite the skin off the inside of my lips, I have a weird smell thing where I have to smell everything, and enjoy smelling ds2 dirty nappy when it’s in a nappy bag, also a ginger skin picker but found having gel nail polish has help that loads

HariboLecter · 13/09/2019 13:51

I thought peeing whilst stood up in the shower was supposed to be better for us?

MikeUniformMike · 13/09/2019 13:59

My cat likes earwax too. He's woken me up licking my ear.

gymraes · 13/09/2019 14:03

Hahaha88
Am with you (on not washing hands after a wee). Sorry but that's DISGUSTING - there's a handbasin/water. Use it! (Even if you do have to dry your hands on your jeans)

NurseButtercup · 13/09/2019 14:04

I may regret asking this but, how many of you " I don't wash my hands after toilet", work in restaurant's/cafe's or involved in handling food?

BendydickCuminsnatch · 13/09/2019 14:04

Omg yes I absolutely love smelling DS’s nappy, clean or dirty will do but I’ve actively enjoyed the smell of both my babies’ poo 😄 definitely not my eldest’s now he’s 4, but when he was little.... OMG ❤️
I think I’m going to have to keep a couple of nappies (clean obvs, I’m not an animal) to smell through the rest of my life for nostalgia’s sake.

That’s one of the main reasons I have got out of the habit of washing my hands AT HOME. I worked in kitchens for years and then constant hand washing left me with such painful dermatitis. At home my hands just seriously need a rest!! But rest assured I definitely wash when prepping food at home or work!

joblotbubble · 13/09/2019 14:39

Laughed so much and ran upstairs to tell DH at the poster who smells her vagina daily (via finger dip) Grin

anothernamejeeves · 13/09/2019 14:41

@joblotbubble dip and sniff
We all do it even these posting on here pretending they are Hyacinth Bucket

Welludidask · 13/09/2019 15:05

I had an ex who just to throw his cum on to his bedroom wall.
I didn't know how severe the problem was until one day, the light from outside shone into his room just right and it kind of lit it all up.. it was like lots of dried chunky snail trails all over his wall.
He wasn't in the slightest bit apologetic about it 🤢

MrsNotNice · 13/09/2019 15:09

OMG is anyone reading this thread as shocked as I was?? I had a vision of Mumsnetters and it’s totally destroyed now. I thought I found my people and belonged until this thread 🤢🤮
