Do you have any habits that other people may think are weird or odd? Mine is that when I’m at the store, sometimes I don’t grab items from the front of the shelf but from in the middle or back out of fear of the first one being “tainted” since it’s in the front.
I always look at my reflection when I’m outside, whether it be car windows, building windows, or random mirrors.
I always constantly check to make sure I set my alarm (even if I’ve already done it) and make sure I turned the stove off and locked the door even though I know I already did. I can’t lay down and peacefully sleep unless I do those things.
I also position my phone apps to where the related ones are next to each other. Social media apps are next to each other, same with sports apps, news related apps, etc.
I feed squirrels every single day. Usually there are about 2 dozen squirrels in my yard in the morning to greet me. I don't "put" peanuts out for them. I hand them peanuts personally. I throw peanuts directly to them like we're playing a game of "catch." Sometimes my aim is off and I'll bonk one in the butt. Then I have to say, "Oops! Sorry, Squirrel! I didn't mean to nail you in the rump." (Sounds worse when I type it out than it did in my head.) In the springtime, the chipmunks also get in on the action. I also feed chickadees from the palm of my hand. I'll stand with seeds in my hand and they will take turns grabbing seeds. I'm sure the neighbors think I'm cuckoo. I do not care. The squirrels love me.
I'll wait until you get more answers to share the rest of my weird and odd habits.

I also glance at my reflection when I see it in various places such as windows/mirrors. Glad that I am not the only one who does this, lol.
My DH is a "checker" who likes to double check the door locks, make sure the stove is off, make sure his alarm is correctly set, etc. I'm not a checker myself.
DH has certain things that he likes in a certain place, too. Shoes have a certain place by the desk and pills have their own place on the desk ,too
Another odd habit I have I guess is drawing/doodling whenever I am on the phone. I also tend to draw all over the desk calendars, with both detailed drawings and cartoons. Compulsive artist?
I always have to soap/rinse myself twice in the shower even though I don't sweat a lot. Just a thing that I have.
I also collect odd little things like pine cones, acorns, nuts/bolts, and pick up paperclips.

+1, my fellow weirdo, I do that too!
I have other weird little habits and/or mannerisms I do as well, but I'm having trouble thinking of more atm.
Oh, wait, I tend to talk to myself a lot. Idk if that's still considered odd nowadays, because I see a LOT of people doing it. Maybe I'm just a weirdo surrounded by weirdos, though.
