I just thought of different hang-ups people have. I have this friend who can't put his keys on the table for some reason, I really don't "get" it but he apparently does. Someone else is occupied with what their nose looks like or how they look from the side or if they say dorky things or whatever.
I had a hangup that I thought my nose twitched when I talked. That hang-up is gone now and is replaced by me monitoring my lower lip lol. It started when I was at the dentists and being mighty nervous, my lip started to shake a little. I thought it was embarrasing and now my hang-up is that I'm scared that it will start shaking like hell all of a sudden when I'm talking to someone. I'm a bit weird like that
I have a weird thing that sometimes happens after saying something funny, I will afterwards repeat the exact words with my lips. It's all unconscious, I didn't knew I did this until someone pointed it out.
Chewing sounds... I can't stand them. That scene in LOTR where Pippin is singing and Lord Denethor is crunching those grapes makes me go literally insane.

I hear you. For me, people sucking all the snot back up their nose so it can fall back down and they can go through the entire process again..
i don't know if its necessarily a hangup but when one of my friends is on the couch near a squarish cushion, he'll take one of the corners and fold it so it forms a pointy tip (think folding the diagonals of a square... it's sort of difficult to explain in words). he'll then proceed to poke at it for a while.

annoys me and makes me want to strangle him for wasting resources. KEEP THOSE MINERALS UNDER 500 GODDAMNIT.
Chewing sounds OMFG I am a fucking nazi with my friends, one of them ALWAYS makes that chompf chompf wet mouth chewing sound and I yell at him "AT LEAST BE A HUMAN BEING FOR A CHANGE YOU MONSTER!" I can't fucking take it, my parents trained me to hate inadequacies like that in myself and others.
Dirty hair, AUGH I hate it when somehow the planets align and I am forced to be in public with dirty hair (sleeping in the car during road trips is one such situation, to give you an example). I am meticulous in trying to cover it up - I need to find a hat, I need to brush my hair, I need to continuously ruffle and straighten it so it doesn't look so slick and greasy... I know it's not my fault, and that I never have dirty hair by choice, but I just can't stand it and my self-esteem goes down like 50%. My friend suffers from some condition, well not really, but for some reason his hair ALWAYS gets to that greasy state, even after he washed it earlier that day. It pisses me off to no end, I tell him to wash his hair all the fucking time. Come to think of it its the same guy that chews like a monster... Man I am a really big dick to him haha.
EYECRUST Jesus it's so small but so noticeable especially when you are in close quarters with someone, I fear that my eyes have all these indications of filth in them, as if I don't wash my face like 3-4 times a day. Whenever someone tells me I have an eye crust, I die a little inside, because I try so hard to keep my face clean, that finding out you've fucked up even with all the precautions... It's like physical pain to me.
Being sweaty god damn it I HATE BEING SWEATY AFTER SPORTS FUUUUU it's simply the worst feeling, you ran around for 3 hours playing soccer feeling free and then all of the sudden you have to go to a convenience store to buy a refreshing drink and you realize that you look like you just walked out of a bog. I feel so self-conscious and filthy, as if there is shame in enjoying the beautiful outdoors and the thrill of running with a ball with your friends. I walk in the store and hide myself instantly, trying to get my drink as fast as possible and I use my credit card to be under scrutiny for the shortest amount of time. One time, a guy asked me if it was raining outside... I just said "NO" rather loudly and left, leaving the drink on the table. Fuck. You don't know how many times I pushed myself to the limits of dehydration by going home and ignoring convenience stores on the way to drink.
PEOPLE WHO ASH IN MY CAR deserve to be in the basement of hell, burning from the inside out, being burned by 1000 cigarette butts at any time, and trapped in a room with a power fan and 3 feet of ashes. When it happens to me by accident, like when the wind blows in an unfortunate time through the window, I have constant nagging thoughts of pulling over and cleaning it up with a wet towelette right away. It is like that UGH I NEED TO DO THIS TO EXIST COMFORTABLY feeling.
I need to have running water in order to brush my teeth otherwise I can't endure the silence or the scrubbing sound on my teeth going to my brain, like a musicbox consisting of two primitive industrial gears that just grind at each other. It drives me insane.
To be completely fair, I am a rather thin person. I am 5'11 and 145 pounds. I do not have much fat on my body, at all. However, whenever I am laying down and looking at something, I know that I like most people have that second chin creep up. GOD if I ever let anyone outside of my family see me in such a position, I'd have to seppuku right on the spot. Also, my stomach has these tiny lovehandles, pretty much the only evidence of having been a cookie lover as a kid. I have fought these lovehandles and have pushed them down to almost non-existence as a consequence of my low weight. However, whenever I take off my shirt during sex or on the beach, I instantly go into self-conscious mode. ROOM MUST BE DARK, BODY MUST BE IN OCEAN GO.
This is not even 1/50th of the shit my mind has to go through daily... Fuck what is wrong with me? How did I become this way? dlkjngldkjfg being human sucks

haha, i always found that 1 second camera shot of him ravenously chewing the grapes hilarious.
I have this hangup where I look at my butt in the mirror after I shit. Even though its irrational I feel that I somehow may have shit on the back of my pants so I am forced to check. Also if I happen to have a sweaty ass my mind tells me I may have a shit all over my ass. I am god damn weird.
I cannot have ANY smells on my hands or else they must be washed..
I always worry about my hair and constantly touch it almost subconsciously.
I constantly look down at my shirt and just can't stand tiny specs of dust or a hair or whatever else manages to get on my shirt, for this reason I hardly ever wear black shirts.
Bad teeth. OH MY GOD. You could have the best body in the world but if you have a gap in your teeth I just can't stand it.
If you are living with a person and lets say you have two jugs of milk(or two containers of anything), one thats been used and one thats unopened. If I open the fridge and there are two jugs of open milk I am going to rage.
As an avid user of the interwebs ive seen all sort of disturbing things but, for whatever reason it whenever I see needles going into someones skin on a movie or on myself at the doctor I get extremely uncomfortable.(10x as much if the needle happens to be taking blood UGH.)

That's the only thing I can really think of atm.
I will drive home just so I can go poo at home. If I am on vacation I will go for days without pooing and then only after finding time alone in the hotel room with every door locked.
In the past year I've started to verbally exclaim my thoughts in the process of figuring out a problem, usually done in my uni labs. So if there's a problem I'm trying to figure out I'll started saying "yeah, no, yeah.... no, no, no, yeah!... no." Glad it hasn't progressed into my exam times.

Oh my god that's exactly me. HAHAHAHAHAHA
This, but it isn't without reason... My nose is huge, and relatively unfitting. I don't consciously care, but I still find myself being "hung up" by it. Especially when my friend goes up to me and she says "Whoa your nose is big ^_^" on one of the few days I wear contacts.
often times i find chewing attractive, sign of good food/appetite public restrooms are ok to sit down at as long as it seems clean and dry, otherwise i wipe it off first then fold some paper before i sit( dont feel like sitting on someones pee) bad teeth nowai stupid/dismissive/overconfident people piss me off the most

Indeed haha.
And I thought they were those mini tomatoes, not grapes? They were red IIRC.
For whatever reason, I get supreme pleasure in straightening things out. I love the aesthetics of clean right angles, perpendicular lines and symmetry. I always like things to be lined up very neatly, and I'm constantly arranging the place settings at restaurants, fixing book towers in book stores and, as casually as possible, slightly nudging the skewed items of the world into my desired positions. Now, I wouldn't say this is a compulsion, or even particularly noticeable to an on-looker; it's just a small act that, should the opportunity present itself, I can quietly enjoy.

I get really, really bothered when people scramble already-cooking eggs as opposed to pre-scrambling them beforehand and then cooking them (which is the way I do it)

Mini tomatoes... burned into my damn retinas.
Ironic since I absolutely love mini tomatoes
Whenever I eat mini tomatoes, I think of Denethor. :\
I like to pretend I have tourettes whenever I come home or complete a task. I just yell out random obscenities when I walk in my house like "SHIT FUCK ASS BALLS NECK" and sometimes my roomate is like "what?", and I just reply "nothin."
