What are you OCD about?

[localyokel]

Lists. I just like to jot down lists of things to do or I get anxious.

I don't like the odd numbers ending in 1, 3, 7, and 9. So whenever there's a volume setting

5's are cool, too.

'Spose it has something to do with disliking prime numbers? Anyway, you're not alone. This came up at Thanksgiving, and the hubby of one of the daughters in the family I was visiting was talking about how she always sets the volume control on even numbers. I do, too--either evens or divisible by 5's, so 18, 24, 25, 26, but no 23 or 17.

There are also some notes & lists on the computer desk, as I type.

Oh, and this:

I do the cash in the wallet thing all facing forward thing

And:

I cannot stand wires not being wrapped/tied and in place.

Absolutely hate wires/cables being out. Mainly, that just looks ugly.

Oh, and nearly everything else anyone has mentioned about counting, letters, etc.

I've accepted that I'm full-on OCD.

I'm just OCD all together. I do the cash in the wallet thing all facing forward thing, I load my dishwasher a certain way, I.hang all of my clothes according to style and then by color so all of the reds are together etc. I vacuum my house north and south.then east to west. It.goes on and on.

All your chicks are plus-size.

I'm with AKAK. You people are fucking strange. I keep my cash folded in my front pocket. I can see the computer, cable, and power cords all in a fucking pile by the entertainment stand as I type. Guess I was just too busy getting pussy and drinking beer to worry about lame shit like this.

People who make fun of people with OCD only do it because they're secretly OCD themselves and wish they had the courage to openly organize their wallets and cable wires.

(Hey, it's a popular form of retort for gay-bashing. It was worth a shot.)

How many of you wierdos are left handed? That would explain a lot.

 

[localyokel]

Or, were you meant to be left-handed but pushed by cookie-cutter school methods to use your right hand anyway?
That would be stressful. And, if OCD is anything, its a technique for dealing with stress.

BUCKYLE may not have the OCDs, but he has the MSPaints.

The inbreds in Pennsylshitholia were too stupid to realize I was left-handed - and the bad part was it wasn't just other kids, it was the fuckrocket "teachers" too.

I'm OCD about being OCD. I go out of my way to just not care.

Figures...

The cash in my wallet is lowest denomination in front and goes up as it goes back.

That and always has to be front side facing and also oldest bills of the same denomation first (I keep the newest bills of a denomination behind the old ones as long as I can so I can have a newer bill in case I have to use a vending machine).

Always got to drink my beer from a glass...not only does it taste better than if it were still in the bottle/can, it's much easier to chug and to see when I'm going to need that next beer.

 

[kippy1040]

I still to this day - 3 fold all my skivies, tee shirts and socks just as i did when i was in boot camp of Navy days. But i don't do the "dittybag" thing on the end of my bed post anymore.

That's me.

They better all be facing forward, too.

Both these and I make sure there are no corners folded. I was like that back in HS when I worked at Sears in the shoe department. My down time was spent "cleaning up" the cash drawer.

I also can't stand being late, I have to make sure I get to places or on a conference call ahead of time.

I am really bad with this. I will literally start having a panic attack if I think I am going to be late.

My closet has to be coordinated correctly as well. Golf shirts in one section, then dress shirts, then casual shirts, then pants. Each section is color coordinated as well, going darks to lights from left to right.

I keep my car extremely clean, both inside and out. (Kinch would love my old cars)

But, to counter balance the above, I leave dishes in the sink for days. My desk (both office and home) gets piles with papers and files that grow for months before I breakdown and go through it. My laundry gets scattered on my closet floor and I will walk on it rather than pick it up and put it in the basket. I dust my place maybe twice a year, and only when I notice the shelves seem to be turning white.

Yeah. I am weird. I know that.

Glad I'm not the only one who does this ...

They better all be facing forward, too.

Right-side up too, obviously.

I actually like prime numbers, though.
