Just to start the conversation, I still make sure that my 'gig' line is straight every single time I get dressed.

I grew up with my mom rolling our towels and I did that as well when I moved out. However, after going through boot camp, I roll EVERYTHING. If it can't be rolled it gets hung up.

I still write in all caps, to the point that I struggle to write in the normal manner, I still inhale food, live on caffiene and nicotine, say letters using the phonetic alphabet, and of course, I carry EVERYTHING in my left hand.

Every time I get home, I do a quick police call and walk around the house to check for anything not right.

Gig lines must be straight.
Using knife hand to emphasize a point.
Yelling " AT EASE " to quiet a room.
15 minutes or more early to everything.
Never put my hands in my pocket.
Haircut = High and Tight
And so many more.
