I was thinking, and I realized a few things that I do are SUPER out of the ordinary. For instance, I don't use the shift key, I do <caps lock> CAPS </end caps lock> even for a simple 'I'. Don't know how I started doing it, but I can do it really fast now, and I still type like 80-100 WPM. haha.
I sit down in the shower every time I take a shower, too, haha.
Anyone else a weirdo ?

I organize the shopping cart by packaging shape when i go grocery shopping. I HAVE to do this. It literally drives me up the wall seeing disorganized shopping carts. And If i have a lot of stuff and i dont use the self check out, I also load items onto the conveyor belt thing by item shape. Seeing people do this in a disorganized manner hurts my brain as well. I will literally pick up any magazine available to avoid looking at their mess.
I have issues...lol
I sit down in the shower. I thought I was the only one lol.
I also smoke in the shower. That one is kinda weird.

I sleep in the shower every morning, standing up, propped up by my forehead against the corner of the shower walls.
Oh, and whenever I drink anything I have to swish each sip around in my mouth three times before I swallow it. If I am thinking about it I can stop myself from swishing, but otherwise I swish.

I recite the phonetic alphabet, backwards.
Zulu, Yankee, X-ray, Whiskey, Victor, Uniform, Tango...
...in under 3 seconds.
I also have mild OCD. I have to spin combination locks 5 times in each direction to make sure they're locked. If there are more than 3 similar objects sitting out, I have to line them up how I see fit. Any light switch panel with two or more switches, all the switches have to be the same direction. This sometimes mean that I will sit in the dark, because I don't feel like having 2extra lights on.
The list goes on, but I think that's enough of my "weirdness" for now.

OCD was made up by scene girls.
These are just weird little habits we have picked up along the span of our lives.
Every night when I am falling asleep, I untuck the bottom of my blanket and tuck it under my legs. I started doing it when I was small now it's just habit and comfortable. Probably to keep the monsters from getting in near my feet.

I don't swish my shots because I think about not swishing them before I do it. I assume I learned my lesson on that the first time I did it.
I also have mild OCD. I have to spin combination locks 5 times in each direction to make sure they're locked.
I do this too, and it did it in high school with the built in locks on the lockers. I swear, I would make it halfway to class and think for some reason that I forgot to spin the dial around and run back to my locker to do it.

Its great for sexytime as well. I stand up to wash and such but I sit down and relax while the water sprays on me. Usually this tempts me into smoking.
I can't really think of much else I do besides that... probably just having a brain fart.

Can the OP re-title this thread to read "Anyone with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Please Post in Here!!!" haha.
-I clean my ears like 5 times a day with Q-Tips, whether they need it or not.
-I shower in a specific order or else I miss a body part.
-I am compulsively late for everything by about 5 mins. If i am going to be on time i'll pull over somewhere and buy something useless to make my self late.
I have had OCD since I was like 15yrs old. It sucks ass. The only thing that keeps the anxiety down is rum and cokes or a 6 pack of beer. :)

I cannot stand stray threads on clothing. or hair. my gf is blonde and I wear black a lot so you can definately see all the hair she leaves on me and if I ever happen to catch myself in a mirror I have to make sure they are all gone. I cut or burn threads so they don't keep going.

I started doing this as well, it was after I saw the movie "Child's Play". I was scared that chucky was going to come after me with a knife and cut my toes or somthing from underneath my bed somwhere.
Oh and I have a habit of also rubbing my ear lobes a lot of times because they get really soft and feel all smooth and stuff.

I do something similar, I will not EVER let any part of my body hang off a bed at any time EVER! I have this strange feeling that it will get cut off or stabbed.
I am anal about cleanliness of my dishes. I wash clean dishes again before I use them. I will not use anything before I, personally have washed them. Also I have an obsession with spoons and dont use forks.

i also do the wrap the blanket around my feet cuz i hate my feet sticking out cuz of all the scary movies i saw when i was little. for that reason also i absolutely had to sleep against a wall. i didnt like having my back turned cuz something could just sneak up on me.
whenever i drive be it auto or stick my hand is ALWAYS on the hand brake.
on my couch i always line my remotes and anything else like my ipod and phone perfectly in a row and are parallel with the back of the couch.

I HAVE to have a fan on me when I sleep.
Can't sleep without it.
Even in the winter.
If someone turns off the fan while I'm sleeping I'll instantly wake up.
I also can't be in a room with the doors open at night, I always think someone or something is watching me.

i'm cursed to forever play the childhood game of don't touch the cracks when im walking, or ill do it inverse, where you have to touch a crack with each step, or a certain colour of tile.
I also alternate tapping my teeth together on the left and right side for objects that are on the walls ( that qualify by my fucked up rules) when i'm walking down a hallway, or i do the same for sign and power poles when im in a car and not driving.

I usually highlight words when im on the internet for no aparent reason. it's like OCD for me.
I highlight text as reading it, by habit.
I don't reuse towels for showering... I don't find it weird, but my mom gets really annoyed by it.
I don't eat or drink after people...
I don't shit in public restrooms, unless needed.
I don't like hospitals, try to avoid going to them as much as possible.
I don't like blood to be taken from my body.
I won't stand next to the microwave when using it..

Nope not at all... Get your eyes checked... probably astygmatism kicking in.... I know I have it, basically your retina fails to focus light efficiently any more and you just get a halo effect from bright lights. So in terms of text, the brighter background stars encrouching on the actually letters....
Get your eyes checked...
That was quoted from this thread
Do you highlight text when you're reading? (http://zilvia.net/f/off-topic-chat/224128-do-you-highlight-text-when-youre-reading.html#post2441918)

Since I broke my wrist many years ago I cannot help but to crack my wrists like knuckles. I also picked up that horrible habit of cracking my knuckles a lot.

I have so many things I do... brain fart though...
Lets see... my main OCD habit would probably have to be doing things in even numbers... usually 4. If my hand grazes something by accident, I'd have to touch it again but get the same feeling I did the first time...if it's not the same I'll have to do it again but make sure it ends up on an even number...
I also have a habit of wiping my mouth after every bite of food I take...

- I eat my side items before eating main dishes, all the time.
- I have a specific order for my tabs in FireFox to be open, if anything upsets that, I close it and open again in proper order.
Gmail, Zilvia, MySpace (at home, MSN at work), YouTube and then any other variables, which are handled and then closed.
- I type things I might need to remember for later in an email draft, then handle it later. I do this for blogs I will post when I get home, pictures I might need to share, or just a means of reminding myself of shit.

I am VERY strict about spelling, punctuation and grammar, even in text messages. I know that I have 160 characters to send one from my phone, but I make a point of punctuating sentences, spelling full words and avoiding the 13 year old girlish habit of shorthand. I know this sometimes causes me to need 2 messages to make my point, but frankly I don't give a damn.

I am VERY strict about spelling, punctuation and grammar, even in text messages. I know that I have 160 characters to send one from my phone, but I make a point of punctuating sentences, spelling full words and avoiding the 13 year old girlish habit of shorthand. I know this sometimes causes me to need 2 messages to make my point, but frankly I don't give a damn.
That's exacly how I am with my texts... and pretty much anything which requires me to type.
^^^ Which reminds me of the cute chick whose number I took one time, and intended to call, but ending the exchange, she used the word "conversate" and I never called her, JUST because of that.
What do you mean? Conversate = Sex on the first date. Everybody knows that. LOL!!!
On a side note, I tend to use "..." a lot... (the three dots). I know some people hate that, but it's a habit I picked up at work.

- i NEED the tv to be on when i go to sleep. if i cant faintly hear something or its totally dark, i cant sleep. i slept like a baby when i visited my uncle in Manhattan.
- when i get home from work, first thing i do is internets and open tabs in the same order. VRT, Zilvia, LookOut, Hotmail, Hybridz, Gmail, Facebook, VAdriven, Sumospeed, VIPStyleCars. if i dont, it just feels weird. then i check Urbanprankster.com and Notalwaysright.com. After that i can go about my business.
- i like to wrap my head in something when i got to sleep
- i cant sit still ever, i need to move something. i usually tap my foot whether theres music or not
- i play with my facial hair a lot and sometimes pull it out..

I dip my grilled cheese in ketchup.
Tomato soup here.
Thought of a few more.
- I sleep at the foot of my bed, it is weird when my girl stays over or I stay over her place.
- When walking on a sidewalk, I count the number of steps I take on each "panel" of the sidewalk and try like hell to make them match.
- On long trips, once I am back in range where the exit numbers are counting up or down to my own exit, I calculate how much time it will take me to get home, based upon exit number and speed. I even do this when someone else is driving.
- I have a hard time staying sleep in absolute silence, I need the television on while I sleep... It is as loud as when I am awake.
- I plan short trips, like through the city, based upon which method will net me the most right turns instead of left turns.
- Sometimes when I am in a public place, like a mall or something I look around at people and create a whole back story leading up to what got them there. Often times, this story is humorous and people are looking at me like some kind of damned alien when I laugh.

-always have my hand on the e-brake/hand brake

-sweet and sour sauce with pizza

Plastic drink bottles:
Once opened, I have to remove the "safety ring" that used to be attached to the cap, but is now stuck on the neck. Often times I will just pry it off, however if I have a blade on me, I will cut it off. Once it has been cut off, I cut it into 4 relatively equal pieces before I throw it away.
I also HAVE to remove the label from the bottle. ALL of it if possible. Once you break the seal of the bottle, you release the pressure inside. Once the pressure is gone, the label doesn't fit as tight as it did before. That causes it to wrinkle and crinkle in my hand, distracting me from enjoying my tasty beverage. So, it MUST go.
At a restaraunt that serves drinks on coasters, all the coasters must be facing so that the person picking up the drink can read the coaster.
I will stack similar sized dishes at the end of my meal, to make it easier for the server to take them away. Then wipe the table clean before I leave.
Whenever possible, I enter and exit a building through the same door, retracing my steps on the way out.
I also find myself trying to avoid the cracks in the sidewalk, or at least attempting to skip the oddities in my path. For example: The staircase leading to my office. One of the steps (#7 from the bottom) was repaired a few months ago. The non-skid rubber pad on the step was cut too short on each end, exposing the concrete step underneath (less than half an inch on each side). So, when climbing or decending those stairs everyday, I space my stride so that I ALWAYS skip that step.

I always make my steering wheel lock when I leave the 240.
I always leave my car in neutral with the handbrake up. If my dad moves my car to let himself out in the morning and leaves it in first I will stall out when I start it up. Every time.
I drink an unhealthy amount of sweet tea, and don't drink soft drinks or anything carbonated.

Man, after reading this thread I have come to the realization I must be crazy. I didn't know all the fucked up things I do until I read this thread!
Wash my body in order: shampoo + rinse, conditioner, wash face, rinse conditioner, rinse face, then body from top down.
I frequently flip words around in my head to see what they spell backwards.
In the car (as a passenger), if there are spots on the side window, I stare at them like they are moving beside the car in the scenery. When I was a kid I used to move my head up and down to make them appear to dodge signs, hydrants, cars, etc. I probably looked retarded, so I don't do that anymore thankfully!
The above might have contributed to my HATE for dirty car windows. I keep mine clean as fawk.
I wash my hands a LOT too. The top of my hands gets really dry in the winter. I also do the paper towel trick in public restrooms so as to avoid touching the door handle.
I ninja piss - I turn on the fan to increase stealth too.
I am addicted to chap stick which lead to my next issue: pocket organization!
same here. keys and chapstick right front, ipod/phone left front, wallet right rear
HA! We have the same organization: I have to have chapstick and keys in the right front pocket, cell in the left, and wallet in the right rear. I hate carrying anything more or anything less.
I really don't like sleeping on other peoples' bedding or using their towels (Its the unfamiliar smell). If they are clean though, I can force myself to get over it.
Tabbed browsing: gmail has to be in tab 1, and I hate having more than 5 tabs open. I will close anything not-in-use asap.
I never drink the last sip in my drink - especially beer for some reason. *gag*
I have to keep my beard short or I will pull hairs out that are longer than the others. Sideburns too ><
Crap that is a long list... I hate you guys for making me realize all this about myself!

I constantly check to make sure my wallet, cellphone and keys are in my pockets.
I first noticed it when I was talking to some girl at a bar in Vegas and she called me out on it. She thought I had drugs on me and was being paranoid lol.
i do that constantly. like 10 seconds after i put my wallet away i make sure its there. i know i just put it in my pocket but i still check anyways.
i feel so awkward if i dont have a pack of smokes in my pocket. like if i finished a pack and threw it out and am going to buy another, i check my pocket and feel so strange that just my phone is in it.

keys and chapstick right front, ipod/phone left front, wallet right rear
Keys: left front
Chapstick/nail clippers: right front small (the "junior" pocket that most jeans have)
Phone: right front
Wallet: right rear
Random paper list of stuff to do: left rear
Always, always, always.
Also related to the above, I ALWAYS have nail clippers with me, because I pick my fingernails constantly. Sometimes it'll get too out of hand and I'll need the clippers to avoid making my fingers bleed.

I will always extend my pinky when I drink, anything.
I eat with my back to the all or a corner, so no one can sneak up on me and kill me.
I am uncapable of pooping in a porta pottie, will never, ever happen. (it can flip over)
I must sleep in complete silence and darkness, so dark that I dont even have an alarm clock due to the light it emits.
I get so much crap about the pinky thing, quite a few gay jokes.
Same here, I always hug the corner when I eat, my GF thinks it's so weird
Pitch black is the best way to go, I once went so far as to hang a giant black trash bag over the window to block out light.

Tin foil works well, also. The apartment we used to live in had this BRIGHT security light outside, right next to our bedroom window :rolleyes: Not even those blackout drapes could keep it dark in there.

I have to change up my style of clothing every few months, and when i do i buy nothing but that brand, like this winter i had a vans obsession and then a north face obsession, now i'm going through an under armour obsession :hyper:
I also can't get away from 240's no matter what I switch to, I'm on my 4th one right now, but dislike it cuz the previous owner fucked up shit not worth fixing, but I know if I get rid of it I will just buy another, which might not be a bad thing compared to this POS.
I also must run or exercise at least once a day, otherwise I feel like I have missed out on something, lack of endorphines/adrenaline.

That's just physiological. If I don't exercise I feel like absolute shit. No energy, no motivation. It seems counterintuitive that you need to expend energy to have more of it, but that's the way it goes. =)

wtf?
.... but yeah, I double check myself constantly, I remember when I was managing a restaurant, I would turn around and check to see if I locked the door; a few times when I was almost halfway back to my house. Didn't forget to lock the front door ONCE when I turned around and check it, but I still felt the need if I even questioned it.

I have a very specific way of preparing the toilet when I go poo. (this is for places other than home).
I roll out like 6 squares of paper and wrap it around the toilet seat where my weenie might touch. THEN, I get the wax paper seat thing and put it on.
Then I sit and go poo.
I am way freaked out about my weenie touching the seat.
p.s. Ross, remember that one time you came over and then I had to go poo real bad and it was terrible.

Let's see..
Knuckle cracking, also wrists, neck, elbows.
I rinse standing in the shower and clean it, then plug the tub and wash with the shower on. Yeah, sitting down. I have loved water as long as I can remember, so I take baths.
I fidget. Finger tapping, leg rocking, something.
I talk to myself. There is constantly a dialog in my head.
I drive with my right hand underneath my right leg.
I hold down my big toes to "swerve" away from signs/pole on the highway. Comes from when we took lots of road trips as a kid and I was bored.
I have similar sleeping issues as everyone else.
I "ninja pee". I also have a shy bladder and have difficulty using the bathroom if anyone is around, even family.
If I don't have lots of private time during the day I get pretty anxious.
Pocket organization/checking. Yup. Surprising how everyone's keys/wallet tend to be kept in the same spot as me.
I put sauce on EVERYTHING.
That's enough for now. I've revealed too much. :coolugh:

I drum my fingers as if it was the buttons on an arcade machine whenever I'm at a desk. I sometimes also must walk and even number of steps between certain spaces on the ground. Example, walking on the sidewalk, walking on a sidewalk, I must walk it with an even number of steps before stepping off it.

i rock the exact same setup and check em constantly as well, except i usually have some gum back left
i count steps and paces, if im at work using tools always count how many hits/turns/cuts etc..
CONSTANTLY play with my hair if its long, dont even think about it its totally subconscious. and if im thinking hard about something i kick it into overdrive and there is a pile of hair on the desk or whatever...
talk to myself quite a bit, i dont think this one is too bad... its once you start responding to talking to yourself that u might need to talk to someone haha

I look at anything I am going to eat off of be it plates or silverware and inspect it thoroughly. And anytime I take a cup out for a drink I look in it and blow in it one time.Dude, me too! I always blow in a cup i get out of the cabinet. As if it's got dust in it or something. Also, when at a fast food place, I ALWAYS pull the paper off, then blow through the straw. One time, there was a small piece of paper in the straw, and I sucked it up. Twas nasty.
I do this too, the skin on top of my hands get super dry from it
I obsessive when it comes to cleaning things
I've been known to take a toothbrush and spend hours cleaning car partsSame here about the hand-washing thing. Especially now during the winter months. My skin will get so dry that it will start to get raw/crack. It's gross, but I'm totally OCD about hand-washing.
I regularly clean something on my car with a toothbrush and degreaser.
-I shower in a specific order or else I miss a body part.Idk about missing a body part, but I always start with the face, then do my neck/shoulders, then do my arms, then my chest, back, then legs/feet, then underarms, then my junk, then my butt.
NEVER EVER will I use the same washrag.
I had an ex one time that would use the same washrag for a few days, but wanted a new towel for every shower...
Umm. Towels are for when you're clean, and the washrag gets all your body's nastiness on it.
I do something similar, I will not EVER let any part of my body hang off a bed at any time EVER! I have this strange feeling that it will get cut off or stabbed.
I am anal about cleanliness of my dishes. I wash clean dishes again before I use them. I will not use anything before I, personally have washed them. Also I have an obsession with spoons and dont use forks.Same here. My friends always comment about me using the scrubby side of the dish scrubby pad, rather than just the spongy side. I justify it by saying that if I don't see something, then the scrubby stuff will get it off of there.
I even go so far as to have created scrub marks around the rim of my plastic cups, cause i've scrubbed them OCD-style. lol
i also shower in a certain order
no way in hell im scrubbing my face with the same wash rag that i just scrubbed my ass withAmen.
so next time you scrub your face, the last thing to touch was your junk?Don't use the same washrag twice in a row. :rant2:
i'll let you guys in on two of my many ocd like activities
i'm cursed to forever play the childhood game of don't touch the cracks when im walking, or ill do it inverse, where you have to touch a crack with each step, or a certain colour of tile.
I also alternate tapping my teeth together on the left and right side for objects that are on the walls ( that qualify by my fucked up rules) when i'm walking down a hallway, or i do the same for sign and power poles when im in a car and not driving.Haha. I do that, too. Then feel bad cause "step on a crack, break your mother's back" or whatever. I love my momma.
You made me think about something I used to do when my family would take trips when I was little. To pass the time, I would imagine that I was watching a dirt bike (motocross kinda deal) rider ride along the side of the road. There are plenty of jumps and such, and it's kinda stuck with me. I'll catch myself doing it to this day.
I don't shit in public restrooms, unless needed.
I won't stand next to the microwave when using it..
.. probably more, may edit laterSame here on both of those.
i make all light switches sit the same direction
sleep in the shower standing up in the corner
i shift threw all 5-6 gears 5 or 6 times before i drive any manual car. I also continue to do it as i sit at lights.Hahaha. I play with my gears, too. Most often, I'll just "waggle" the shifter left and right.
Conversate and irregardless are instant dealbreakers.
As are the pronunciations "jew-luh-ree (jewelry)" and "ree-luh-tor (realtor)."The one that really grinds my gears is people who say:
"NUKE-yew-luhr" ... nucular?
It's definitely: "NUKE-lee-uhr" ... nuclear :)
I always make my steering wheel lock when I leave the 240.
I do the leg shaking thing too, but probably because I'm ADD. It drives my GF NUTS. She always forces me to stop if I 'm around her doing it lol.I lock the wheel, too. And I'm always shaking my leg. I think I have restless leg syndrome.
A few of my own. I always find it easier to put my contacts in when I FIRST wake up. If I wait like 5 minutes, then they'll burn a little bit.
I take really long (elapsed time, assholes..lol) dumps. It started when I was younger as a way to get out of housework. Then I learned the trick of taking a book in there. Being a natural bookworm.. Yeah. I take at least 20 minute dumps. Mostly like 30-45 minutes though. Any longer, and my legs start to fall asleep. lol
I used to have braces, and to keep food from getting stuck in them, I would pull my lips tight over the braces, then put some suction in the area between the wire and my teeth to make sure no food's just chilling in there. To this day, I still do that. Looks weird, I know.
When I'm trying to think of something, I flex the muscles under my scalp/back of my head and move my ears.
I obsessively crack my knuckles. Both fingers and toes.
I smell a lot of things. Toothbrush, cups from the cabinet, socks I've just taken off, etc.
I shave my arms, and I'll absentmindedly take my stubbly finger-hair (sounds gay, right?) and rub it over my chin or lips. Girl asked me one time if I was "smelling my finger" I just said yes, cause it was easier than explaining the hair thing.
I can't sit without crossing my ankles/legs. Not girl style.
I "scrub" my teeth with my tongue to try and keep them feeling smooth and shiny.
I HATE shaving after a shower. I must shave with hot water, too. Also, I have to shave against the grain. I've got a really heavy beard, and i've got 7 o'clock shadow right after I shave if I don't. Instant 5 o'clock shadow is natural for me.
I constantly pat my butt pocket to make sure my wallet is still there. As if someone stole it and I didn't notice.
I drink waaaayyyy too much soda. I can't survive on just water. Can't do it. I'll literally get dehydrated. I'm even a healthy-minded person, too.
I always adjust the CD player to digits that are multiples of 5. Likewise, I'll turn my iPod to the same volume.
I can't fall asleep unless I've got ear buds in. Even if there's not music. Just having the earbuds in.
I check the house door like 15 times before I'm satisfied that it's locked. I'll even get back up out of bed to check it. And I live in the country. lol
I can't sleep with socks on. Even if my feet are covered, that's ok. But no socks.
When I'm done listening to my iPod, I always unlock it, turn it off, then tilt my head and just pull my earbuds out from further down the cord (if that makes sense) and twist my head so they'll both come out. Then, I wrap the cord and earbuds around my iPod counter-clockwise. Every time.
For some reason, I always have to pee when I go to take a dump, so I pee first, then do my business.
I work at a retail store. I can't stand making eye contact with complete strangers when I'm walking THROUGH the store. When I'm in my area, of course, but if I'm just walking up front or something, I don't like looking at people. It feels awkward.
I grind my teeth when I sleep. My canines are flat on the inside. Making them pretty much razor sharp on the top, since they're chisel-shaped. Makes beef jerky like cake.
I talk to myself, too. I'm very intelligent, so I feel that I'm wasting time if there's no dialogue when there's something that you could talk about going on.
I eat mustard on way too many foods.
I seriously eat at Subway AT LEAST 5 times a week. I'm on a first name basis with pretty much everyone who works at the three Subway retaurants nearest my house and campus.
When I park my car, it must be placed in 2nd gear with the e-brake on, regardless of whether I'm parked on a flat spot, hill, yard, whatever.
I constantly sniff.
I don't pick my nose in public, obviously, but I wipe it a lot. I sure as hell pick my nose though.
I spend way too many hours on automotive forums.
I study better and can do homework faster if I'm listening to music while doing so. I also like to listen to music while reading.
I have an unhealthy obsession with Halo and the Master Chief. Have all the books. They're exciting.
I'm decently hairy, but I shave my arms, legs, and chest.
I manscape and I'm totally not ashamed to say that.
I pick at the corners of my eyes to get rid of any residual "sleepy" that might be hiding in there.
I'm picky about everything being organized in a very efficient manner. Bookbag is designed to be packed/unpacked very easily, etc, etc. This does not hold true for my room at all. Clothes all over the place, lying in piles, dirty clean, whatever. My room is super messy. But never dirty. I certainly make that distinction.
I'm sure there's more, but I'll add stuff later.
Yeah, I'm a totally weird mothafuckah, aren't I? haha
*edit* Reading this thread really made me realize how similar we all are, even if we don't know each other, or don't like each other, we've all got something in common.
I'm butt ass naked when I take shits in domestic residences, socks, shoes, everything.
i do that only in my home
I think about what i am going to say before i say it multiple times , and I will prepare my self for up to five different responses and what to say then. But of course only in person.
I am not doing this on purpose but i seem to keep setting myself up for rejection.
When showering I wash my self in a specific order and if I slip I do it all over again.
I shave dry but I condition my facial hair before hand.
I trim my pubes.
I can not sleep unless I have an alarm set. If I don't, I will not go to sleep for a few more hours.
When at a burger joint I ask for large fries and a small coke because refills are free.
I am trying not to finish what I eat.

I HATE sleeping in my bed and feel crumbles of food or dirt in my bed, i will have to get rid of them for me actually to fall asleep.
I MUST have bed sheets and blanket sheets on.
I hate driving if im not sitting the most comfortable way.
I can NOT!!! use a used eating utencil even if it was used by me or my gf a few mins ago.
At work, when i put my uniform on, IT HAS to be perfect, and if its not, i have to re-put it on again.
I might have a hygine phobia, I HAVE to feel and be clean at all times. (i wash my hands every 2 hours since i wake up till i go to sleep.)
I HATE when i hear people eat with their mouths open and it makes that cow shewing sound!!! DRIVES ME INSANE!!!! FOR THOSE WHO DO THAT NOW A DAYS, PLEASE DO ME A FAVOR AND CHANGE THAT, CAUSE THAT'S LIKE MEDIEVAL TIMES OR SOME SHIT!!!! ITS ANNOYING AND NOT WELL MANNERED!!! and I WILL poke you in the eye if I hear that!!!!!!!
I hate when people say "Ivan, we need to talk." GUESS WHAT U ALREADY DOING??? TALKING!!!!!!!! retards!
I HATE when ppl talk for too long or talk about random shit that i dont care about, or their personal shit, because i dont need to know that info. Make ur point short and clear!
Im also a perfectionist, i have to have everything perfect, if im working on the car and nothing causes me any problems and everything works, then Im happy. When i draw, wear clothes, have crazy wild sex with my random gf's, drive, do anything....it needs to be perfect and needs to work!!!
ok now that i see my own list of problems, maybe i do need to seek professional help with this. :(

To pass the time, I would imagine that I was watching a dirt bike (motocross kinda deal) rider ride along the side of the road. There are plenty of jumps and such, and it's kinda stuck with me. I'll catch myself doing it to this day.
ditto
I take really long (elapsed time, assholes..lol) dumps. It started when I was younger as a way to get out of housework. Then I learned the trick of taking a book in there. Being a natural bookworm.. Yeah. I take at least 20 minute dumps. Mostly like 30-45 minutes though. Any longer, and my legs start to fall asleep. lol
do this to...i have progressed to taking cell phone or ipod and playing games or reading a magazine now though. unfortunatly..the time has not changed
I obsessively crack my knuckles. Both fingers and toes.
I can't sit without crossing my ankles/legs. Not girl style.
I "scrub" my teeth with my tongue to try and keep them feeling smooth and shiny.
I constantly pat my butt pocket to make sure my wallet is still there. As if someone stole it and I didn't notice.
I drink waaaayyyy too much soda. I can't survive on just water. Can't do it. I'll literally get dehydrated. I'm even a healthy-minded person, too.
I always adjust the CD player to digits that are multiples of 5. Likewise, I'll turn my iPod to the same volume.
I check the house door like 15 times before I'm satisfied that it's locked. I'll even get back up out of bed to check it. And I live in the country. lol
For some reason, I always have to pee when I go to take a dump, so I pee first, then do my business.
I don't pick my nose in public, obviously, but I wipe it a lot. I sure as hell pick my nose though.
I spend way too many hours on automotive forums.
I study better and can do homework faster if I'm listening to music while doing so. I also like to listen to music while reading.
I pick at the corners of my eyes to get rid of any residual "sleepy" that might be hiding in there.
I'm picky about everything being organized in a very efficient manner. Bookbag is designed to be packed/unpacked very easily, etc, etc. This does not hold true for my room at all. Clothes all over the place, lying in piles, dirty clean, whatever. My room is super messy. But never dirty. I certainly make that distinction.
x2 on all of these

i shave and brush my teeth in the shower.
i usually have to take a shit 15 min after i eat a meal.
im constantly checking my cell phone, it irritates the fuck out of me. its like a nervous twitch. i swear some time the little bastard vibrates on its own sometimes just to fuck with me.
i wear my socks inside out.
my volume on anything has to be on even numbers.
im anal about my sideburns being even, but as you try to even them up, they just get shorter and shorter. pisses me off.
i constantly use my pinky and index finger to twirl my thumb ring on my left hand.
i shower no less than 3 times a day.

when i turn my computer on, i open firefox and go to zilvia, then open a new tab and go to norcaldrift, then open a new tab and go to cnn. i do this manually every day, and this browser window must be the leftmost item in the task bar.
throughout the day i open photoshop, illustrator, other browsers, filezilla, and lots of other programs.
i have at&t dsl. sometimes it loses connection, and for some reason, even after the connection comes back, it wants to you do restart your browser. if you don't restart, it won't go to any web pages, just the page that says the connection is fixed.
fuck that, it has to be on the left, and if i close it i have to close everything thing else in order to get it to the left. and that means closing everything else i'm working on.
so i just wait 5 minutes for it to forget i was supposed to restart the browsers. then it doesn't show me the fixed connection page anymore.

I scratch my throat with the back of my tongue. Its weird lookin when i do it.
If I'm drunk or super tired, I'll pee sitting down. I hate missing and hitting the seat and it goes everywhere.
I can't sleep unless my gaint pillow is on top of my head. I started doing that because I work at night and hated when 3 hours into sleeping the sun light would wake me up. Now no matter what time I sleep, it has to be there.
I pop my (i guess you can call it the pointer toe if thinking about your hand) with my big toe.

Man, after reading this thread I have come to the realization I must be crazy. I didn't know all the fucked up things I do until I read this thread!
Wash my body in order: shampoo + rinse, conditioner, wash face, rinse conditioner, rinse face, then body from top down.
I frequently flip words around in my head to see what they spell backwards.
In the car (as a passenger), if there are spots on the side window, I stare at them like they are moving beside the car in the scenery. When I was a kid I used to move my head up and down to make them appear to dodge signs, hydrants, cars, etc. I probably looked retarded, so I don't do that anymore thankfully!
The above might have contributed to my HATE for dirty car windows. I keep mine clean as fawk.
I wash my hands a LOT too. The top of my hands gets really dry in the winter. I also do the paper towel trick in public restrooms so as to avoid touching the door handle.
I ninja piss - I turn on the fan to increase stealth too.
I am addicted to chap stick which lead to my next issue: pocket organization!
HA! We have the same organization: I have to have chapstick and keys in the right front pocket, cell in the left, and wallet in the right rear. I hate carrying anything more or anything less.
I really don't like sleeping on other peoples' bedding or using their towels (Its the unfamiliar smell). If they are clean though, I can force myself to get over it.
Tabbed browsing: gmail has to be in tab 1, and I hate having more than 5 tabs open. I will close anything not-in-use asap.
I never drink the last sip in my drink - especially beer for some reason. *gag*
I have to keep my beard short or I will pull hairs out that are longer than the others. Sideburns too ><
Crap that is a long list... I hate you guys for making me realize all this about myself!
we are the same person i think...
i introduce random people to canyon carving and force them to let me drive their car... like its my own.
ByeByeSti
02-15-2009, 01:52 PM
I HAVE to have a fan on me when I sleep.
Can't sleep without it.
Even in the winter.
If someone turns off the fan while I'm sleeping I'll instantly wake up.
I also can't be in a room with the doors open at night, I always think someone or something is watching me.
im am the exact same... when i go to sleep... the fan is on high, i lay on my left side, and wrap all my blankets around my right arm covering everything upto my chin with my face in front of the fan. and i can only sleep on the right side of my bed for some reason...
i just reread alot of things... and i realize that i do alottttttt of shit every single day in the same order and what not... now i feel better though. i dont feel as wack

I drink waaaayyyy too much soda. I can't survive on just water. Can't do it. I'll literally get dehydrated. I'm even a healthy-minded person, too.You know that defies science, right?Go on. I'm curious as to what you have to say about this.
*edit* I think I get what you're saying. When I say that I "can't survive on water and that I'll get dehydrated" I mean that I won't drink it because I hate plain water just that much. As in, I'll allow myself to get dehydrated cause I'd rather be thirsty than drink water.
im anal about my sideburns being even, but as you try to even them up, they just get shorter and shorter. pisses me off.
haha. I know exactly what you're talking about. Either the sideburns, or if you're shaving around your goatee, and you get a little too close, and you try to even it up and make it all uniform, and its just gets smaller and smaller. lol

Wow, some of you folks are really um......interesting hah
For me I guess I just can't really stare some people in the eye I usually have to look at something else like an object directly behind them or in between their eyes, etc. Use to be real bad at this when I was younger I would just stare at the ground but I've gotten better with it. I also have a tendency to smile uncontrollably no matter what the situation is I just can't help it, and I fucking HATE it..
And I'm not even going to begin getting into my "rituals". LOL

Only thing I've noticed I do is I use rags at work in excess. If I've already used it for something(be it clean my hands/a tool/etc) I'll throw it away and get another one if I need it. I even put them in my back pocket to use them later and still end up getting a new rag.

I ninja piss, cant sleep with socks on, always have to be covered when i sleep, always have to have the ac on if my roommate turns it off i immediately wake up and turn it back on before i can go back to sleep.
Can't sleep with open doors because i feel that something is watching me, there can't be any light passing underneath the door and cant have any open curtains in my room.
Don't step on cracks no matter what, i hate having wet socks, always check glasses before drinking out of them, gotta shower in a specific order and always check my back pocket to make sure my wallet is in there.
It chaps my ass when people say "be who of you", i always notice little things on people and i always have to drink a glass of water in the morning before i brush my teeth or i'll start gagging when i clean my tongue.
I'm sure there's more but can't think of them right now.

I am very environmentally conscious.
I hate having more than one light on in any room at one time.

Except with my car, I have a cat-less 3 inch exhaust and I recently took the muffler off to see how it would sound, and I doubt it will be back on anytime soon.

I always do that too, my girlfriend thinks I am a total weirdo because of it.
Recently yahoo made it so that if you highlight anything in their news stories it brings up another window telling you more about whatever you highlighted, I hate it because I can't highlight anything without that shit coming on.

When I parallel park, I always have to walk around to inspect. Even though I park perfectly every time. I can't leave my tire against the curb.
I always have to have my feet resting on a soccer ball when I sit at my desk.
I never, I mean ever, wash my hands unless they're visually dirty although I consider myself a very clean person.
I remove the tab from every can I drink.
When I'm bored riding in a car, I clench my teeth, but then momentarily unclench them whenever a road sign, or telephone pole passes. I had no clue that other people actually did this until I read this thread.
I guess I'm a pretty normal person in that I'm not at all consistent with day to day activities such as morning routines, eating meals, etc.

#1. I hate when people say common used phrases wrong.
For ex:
"i could care less"...
Examine it, its used to say that you really dont care in the least. But saying "i can care less" implies you care somewhat about said topic.
Should be:
"i could not care less"... to convey complete apathy...
#2. I sit down to pee at my house. I dont like touching toilet seats. And I really dont like cleaning up pee(face it, you cant hit center all the time... like after sex, or in the am when your not awake yet, drunk, ect...).
#3. I will clean my car 2~5 times a day(interior) even when its not messy. I cant stand things that are not dress right dress. Or clothing unfolded, magazines not stacked neatly and under the seat. While this can slide in my house. Its clean and neat but no where near my car. I even go as far as to organize other peoples stuff in my car. Even if they are only in my car for a few min.

After reading most of this thread I feel like less of a weirdo. I ninja piss, sit in the shower, sometimes I'll even put the drain stop in the tub and have a shower/bath.
When browsing the internet on my desktop or laptop I ALWAYS open up a new tab for everything I click and then when I build up around 10-20 I go through and read them(usually topics on here and the MMA forum I frequent), which usually ends with opening more tabs.
I cannot put milk in any cereal, I hate the texture, instead i drink a glass of milk with it.
Lastly, I constantly crack my toe knuckles, it's a subconscious thing I never notice when I'm alone but it drives my girlfriend crazy.

I have adhd so people get anoyed when im not paying attention eventhough i am.
Also have the twitchy leg thing its always shaking.
The volume on my radio, tv, or anything with a number has to be even, because if the number is odd i feel odd.
When I'm at a restaurant i have to sit so that i can see everyone... no one is sneeking up on me.

Haha, awesome thread. Let's see...
I ninja piss, but only when there are people around. If I'm at home, I'll pee normally.
I keep a lanyard with my keys on it in my left pocket, and as I'm walking, I'll occasionally grab it, hold it for a little bit, then flick it out of my hand, then repeat.
I can't sit still, I always have to be moving my hands or feet. This is also the case while listening to music. I always have to keep the beat with SOMETHING on my body, or use a pen or something. The only exception to this is if it's in public and there's a really bad song on, ie. country, Justin Beiber, Nikki Minaj, etc.

absolute dedication to detail in random situations.
i hate odd numbers. once, my cousin gave me $27 for my birthday just to fuck with me.
i pay waaay too much attention to my surroundings including people and what they're saying. its gotten so bad that my girlfriend gets mad at me. i absolutely hate it. it restricts my attention to what im doing but i cant help it.
i can sit between sleep and consciousness, if that makes any sense....my thoughts and perception get weird.

In the order of my day from beginning to end.
-wake up and have to make my bed. If i dont, all i will think about is making my bed and how im such a dick for not doing it
-when i grab my towel hanging off the door, i have to flap it to get the dust out(even when there is no dust ever)
-one side of the towel is for my armpit,junk and legs in that order, other side is for the rest of my body
-right before i leave my room, i pause and listen to make sure there isnt a murderer in the house, because he would wait until i woke up to think about killing everybody (sarcasm)
Inspect my toothbrush before i use it, because someone might have shoved it up their ass. (I have 3 bathrooms in the house, I am the only one to even go in that one)
Always shower in a certain order
-while showering i listen to make sure my family isnt getting slaughtered and im next
-after getting dressed and going down to eat, i feed my turtles first ALWAYS. If they dont eat, I dont eat. My mother always fed me before eating herself, so they eat first (1 worm each followed by a different fruit everyday), after i eat, i must clean them after eating.
when walking out the door, i always get rejected by the screen door, my dad always locks it and i always try walking out at 100mph and get cockblocked.
Before getting in my car, i check to make sure everything is the way i left it. I check in the drivers seat (I usuallly leave a pen on the seat so if someone sat inside it would move and they would never know where the original position is, stuf like that)
I check under for leaks, unusual objects, etc
WArmup is exactly 60 seconds for me
I never let it rev past 2 thousand unless im feeling like a dickhead driver today
Always park in the same spot in my garage so i dont get scratched
When using the bathroom at school I open the door with as little contact as possible on the door handles if i have to pull and pushing i usually push from the topmost point i can reach (you can keep your pee pee germs)
Pretty much just careful about how i walk, and when im walking from point a to point b really fast, I make race car noises in my head

If I eat M&Ms I pick out the blue ones. I don't like blue M&Ms... I think they're gross (even though they don't taste any different from all of the other colors.) Psychologically they just freak me out. Same goes for Skittles, and other candy.
I avoid the blue bottle of Bath and Body Works soap at work. I know the soap is clear, and it smells good, but I just avoid using it because the color of bottle freaks me out.
(Side note: I don't have a problem with the color blue... I wear blue clothes, shirts, jeans, dresses, etc. The color of my daily S13 is Misty Blue.)

Oh, and whenever I drink anything I have to swish each sip around in my mouth three times before I swallow it. If I am thinking about it I can stop myself from swishing, but otherwise I swish.
Haha i swish every beverage besides water. I realized not too long ago that the reason i do this, is to taste what im drinking. I tried to just drink a coke like water and realized it just didnt taste good and wasnt thirst quenching. Then i went back to swishing and the coke was more enjoyable. I guess my subconsciousness knows whats the proper way to enjoy a beverage ahahah.

^ I do that too, and use 2 ass gaskets and/or 2 strips of toilet paper on each side of the toilet seat..I think a lot of people do that though
I used to be pretty OCD about my ride height, all 4 corners of the car had to be within 1/8" of an inch or it would drive me nuts
I went so far as to adjust the coilovers in the parking lot using the spare tire jack ..I've gotten a lot better now, or maybe I'm just too lazy
One of my best friends in 3rd grade used to repeat everything he said but in silence, only his lips would move. He would say, "Hey! is it lunch time yet?!" *quietly to himself: "hey is it lunchtime yet?"

My friends have told me I've done this from when I was 6-7. I have yet to catch myself.
