SECRET SUBJECT SWAP:What secret bad habit do you have that would surprise people if they knew?!

This is the SECRET SUBJECT SWAP hosted by: Baking in a Tornado
My subject was chosen by: http://menopausalmother.blogspot.com/ 
My secret bad habit is kind of gross. I try not to do it, but I can't help it. So when you read this do not judge me too harsly.
Everyone has the skin that is around your nails. A lot of times I get the extra skin around my nails. It peels when I wash dishes, clean or take a bath/shower for too long. I don't know why it does this honestly. Well, I'm sure now you know where this is going.
If this happens to you, I'm sure you grab a pair of nail clippers and tear it off. I use my teeth.  A lot of people don't know this. Most think I am chewing my nails(which I stopped doing some odd months ago). And of course using my teeth leaves it rather raw and nasty looking, but I can't help it.
It may not seem like a whole big secret, but that is what my secret habit is. I am not proud of it, I have even tried to quit, but I can't. I hate using nail clippers. And my teeth are always at the ready. Prepared for the job at hand. :)

    I had to laugh because I do the exact same thing, only I wouldn't admit it publicly. . . oh wait, I think I just did!

    I'm guilty of this as well. I am always embarrassed of my hands.

    You were the perfect person then to get my prompt because I do the exact same thing! It is a horrible habit I can't break and most of the time my fingers look like they have been through a cheese grater!!! So now I guess the secret is out on both of us!

    I've been a nail biter my whole life. I think it all has to do with stress...and the fact that loose skin around your fingers hurts! Who has time for clippers?

    I do this ALL THE TIME. All my friends say how gross that is and I just don't see it. I've always done it and I don't find it gross. I don't swallow (most of the time) the skin. The skin is there, my teeth are there so its natural, who has time to walk to get a pair of nail clippers.

    Welcome to the fun world of secret subject swaps! I'm so happy you get to do it.
    I do the exact same thing, but I probably take it up a notch because I chew on it when I get it off my finger.

    OMG...my nails are horrific too babe. Everyone around me has long beautiful nails and I have jagged uneven nails and stubby fingers. But at least I don't have to worry about breaking nails right?

    At least you don't sniff your armpits or eat boogers, right?

    I can't believe so many of us have the same habit! I totally tear off the piece with my teeth!!! And, then since I've started on one, I check all the other ones off the same way!!!
