English Player's Syndrome

When I play the English, I like to do Nc3 and fianchetto my king bishop then castle kingside. When I play the Bird Opening I like to play Nf3 and fianchetto my queen bishop then castle queenside. When I play the Sicilian I like to play Nc6 and fianchetto my king bishop then castle kingside. When I play the Dutch Defense I like to play Nf6 and fianchetto my queen bishop.

This disease must be stopped before it spreads. Please shoot me or watch openings like the Petrov Defense get ravaged by fianchettoes!

Seriously though.... is it bad?

The only one that sounds a little weird is your Bird's with queenside castling. Playable I guess, but it must be difficult.
The rest is just mainstream chess.
