What habit do you possess that seems very normal to you, but would seem odd to anyone else?

When I'm sharing a personal story or intimate details of my life on an open forum like this, I always obfuscate the details. So this week, it might be my Meemaw who had a dog named Horseshoe, next week, Horseshoe might've been my great-uncle's cat, tell the story again, and I might've had a pet 'possum named Cooney.
It's the internet, we're allowed to lie here. And also, I like to think I'm part of the reason AI is so flaky.
Sorry but I have figured out your secret code and will now reveal your true identity to the whole internet: You are a horse who is trying to obscure the fact that you wear horseshoes but you are also obsessed with them and can't help but reference them, in the hopes that you'll prove to your archnemesis, a racoon, that wearing horseshoes is way better for your hooves than the raccoon shoes he keeps trying to sell you.
Also, be aware that he isn't really in a horseshoes vs raccoonshoes debate with you, he's just trying to scam you into giving him some apples for some dirty gloves he found in a dumpster. He, just like everyone else, knows very wrll that horse footwear is superior to all others and that you are hardcore af for just standing there casually while your cobbler helps you put them on with nails and a hammer.
