How many? I don't know, I think it depends on the character and the person viewing the character- It's case by case. For example I love Abby on NCIS, just enough quirks for me, however she annoys my hubby!

I have noticed how ...Love the drawing w/ this post!<br />I have noticed how people confuse habits with quirks. To me a habit, like sucking your teeth if you're thinking hard, is something you've chosen to do at some point and now do without thinking. Quirks are generally preferences, ways of behaving or feeling that aren't shared by the majority of people. But it IS a tricky line...Melodiehttp://foreverrewrighting.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075307243945196771.post-38751246807920232752012-04-20T03:23:34.574+02:002012-04-20T03:23:34.574+02:00Thanks for this!
