I'm a habitual hand-shuffler, and I've found myself shuffling three pieces of paper during class while listening to the instructor :P

Haha I do too.  A couple of friends and I were playing Munchkin and I couldn't help but shuffle those as well.  MtG=Bad Habits :-\

I use the "seems good" phase in every day life. That's the phrase my group uses to describe something borderline broken (turn two 4x {burning-tree emissary} for example).

Every card I have is organized EVERY WEEK.  I will purposely mess up my extensive cards, and then sort them into several categories.

COLOR:
TYPE:
RARITY:
SET:
PRICE:

All in that order,  I even do that for basic lands....   I clearly have problems.

I was so bored during class one day because the teacher gave us a worksheet 2 questions long, and they were yes or no questions (you could tell she was drunk).  Well I finished and I had 55 minutes left in class.  So I got on this app and was looking at a Jace, Tibby combo.  My teacher walked over and stared at me for a minute, then asked what I was doing.  I involuntarily said, "I'm trying to see if ol' Tibby here can actually be useful in a standard match right now.  Probably not though because he has such bad abilities, and it takes forever to use his ult.  Kind of like {Nissa Reveane} only she had a good ult."

I then realized what I just said and I froze.  Right when I did, I .poo. you not, she said, "I agree tibalt is terrible, but he has a minor usefulness mid-game.  In all honesty you need the right cards, and standard doesn't provide such usefulness.  Although I do understand how the two planeswalkers are alike in that respect.  How do you feel about spirits now during standard, no impact or some usefulness?"

She is now my favorite teacher...
