OCD, what's yours?

Raw meat + washing/cleaning hands.

Anywhere near raw meat, I have to scrub my hands before touching something else, even if said food will be cooked or boiled at many 100's of degrees

That's not really OCD, just good practice.

My only real OCD is people leaving crumbs everywhere and my stereo volume has to be on even numbers.

lol, this thread is great, glad I'm not the only one who is a bit mad.

I will ALWAYS check that the car locked itself when I use the blipper for the central locking. Even if I've heard it lock, sometimes I'll start to walk away, and then go back to check it. I don't know why

Foldering everything neatly on my computer. Lining up my stationary and keeping everything in neat places. I hate clutter. Bit of a hypocrit as in my first year of uni my room was a bombshell

when i fill the car up i must round it to the nearest pound.

if im filling the car up on behalf of a trip with multiple occupants i must fill it so that it is divisible by the number of people in the car... so that it is to the whole pound per occupant (£40 / 4 = £10 each)

And I always worry about the car not being locked...

Whenever I go to a restaurant after I order I always wash my hands before touching food. In fact I wash my hands at every new place I visit.

Whenever someone offers me crisps I take 3 not one.

All volume numbers must be even and NEVER 13.

Fuel also has to be rounded to the nearest pound.

Toilet roll has to be over the top.

I get really really annoyed when people fill up with something like £32.56 worth of petrol, a few times I've gone a penny over and rounded up to the next fiver, once I ended up putting in £15 more than I wanted to so I could get it bang on. Lock me away please

Check every inch of chicken, fish, chips and crisps for bad bits before I eat it

I do that with grapes, but that's just sensible as there are sometimes skanky ones in the pack.

£15 rofl

I used to aim for somewhere around £30 and carry a cup holder full of 1s and 2s before I started using the 'fast lane' bit and just filling it to the top.

Janesy B · 6 Jul 2009 at 13:45

That was quite annoying, £15.02 DOH, £20.01 DOH, £25.04 DOH, £30.00 \o/

I have to take a certain roundabout at 35 every time i go a certain way home from work, if i bottle it i go back and do it again until i manage to do it.
I've understeered hard and nearly destroyed my car on it a fair few times too, should really stop doing it but it's one of those things i can't help.

Does she by any chance ming?

swinnie · 6 Jul 2009 at 14:00

The GF cannot go to sleep without turning everything off, except an alarm clock.

I have to open my apps in a specific order.

Bog roll has to be over the roll, never under the roll.

I use full spelling and punctuation, never 100%, in everything I write - MSN, IRC and even texts.

Suicidal tendencies?

My Big finger on my right hand has a mind of it's own & constantly presses the right click. :mad:

It's like it's jealous of the use my first finger gets or summit & just presses away randomly.

Whenever taking an item like a loaf of bread or a bagel from a packet with the sticky fastener, I always have to spin the end tight and reapply the fastener, so as to keep the bread as fresh as possible. I get tres annoyed when people leave it just folded or slightly twisted.

Whenever possible, I avoid using ceiling lights, I prefer up-lighting and lamps.

I don't touch the handles on doors in work/public loos without using tissue or my sleeve (if applicable).
