We all have one, call it an OCD, call it a quirk but here are mine:

1. I always use a paper towel in the bathroom after I wash my hands to open the door out of a public bathroom. I do not have a phobia about doorknobs per se since I do not even think about it at home, but in public.../cringe

2. I simply CANNOT sit in a restaurant with my back to the door and/or with alot of people walking around behind me. My wife calls it my Godfather complex but it just bugs the hell out of me.

3. I hate Feet, they are so creepy. I am the anti- Quinten Tarantino

4. I am a toothbrush nazi...have to brush at work after lunch and do not think I have gone more than 12 hours ever without brushing as an adult. As a funny side note, I did not go to a dentist at anytime in my adult life until I was 35 (and then for just a cleaning) and the dentist did not believe me, so I must have been doing something right :)

5. Leaving TV's and lights on - just cant do it.

Why dont you just go in the bathroom if you are sick? Puking in public is nasty.

I have trouble being in the presence of people saying or doing stupid things.

What if some of us are saying stupid things on purpose?  Because really, this place would really be a torment for you if that was the case.

Also, the rest of you need to shut it.  These are the kind of threads that make my day more enjoyable.

I have an obsessive need to catalog pretty much everything.  My movies, my music.  All of them must be categorized, the names formatted in the same way, and they must be stored alphabetically.  This takes up an enormous amount of time, but it's something I actually enjoy a little bit.

All of them I've met at least. If an Aquarius woman isn't sucking on your toes, then she's crazy about her own toes. More than likely has a foot tattoo as well. They're also all airheads. It's an air sign, after all.


It's my own bullshit astrology theory by the way. Feel free for info on other signs.

Strike that - somewhere I managed to confuse posts and words and thought you were implying that Aquarians didn't like feet. Turns out that reading is hard.  I retract my previous assertion.

I will object to the airheads one though. Lantyssa doesn't strike me as an airhead at all.

Schild on the other hand... Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

I have a lot of trouble lingering in a restaurant after the check has been paid.  Once I've eaten my food and set down my money I need to get out of the building or I feel incredibly twitchy.  I even make an effort to keep small bills on hand (or just leave large tips) so I can avoid waiting for change.

Stickers on things like books or cds. I just have to remove them and if that is not possible or leaves residue on the merchandise (because they used really annoying glue) I can get extremely annoyed.

I hate feet and toes.  Disgusting body parts.  I'm always in my socks or shoes.  I love boots though I don't think they count.

My foot would be one of the last places I get a tattoo.  I'm not sure where I would since I can't make up my mind, but not on my foot.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

People touching my things in either my room or workspace. Yes my room is a mess, but I know my own mess, and it drives me nuts when stuff has moved from where I last placed it. And I'm terrible with pens at work. If my pens go missing because someone is a dick and swiped them, I'll spend upwards of 20 minutes looking for them.

People who walk slowly in hallways or on sidewalks, especially people walking abreast in groups - FFS get out of my way.

My hair. I hate when I have strands of hair sticking up at odd angles that I do not assign. I can even feel when I have hair out of alignment, and then I have to go the restroom and wet it back down a bit.

With my hair, it's really just a sign that I am due for a haircut. This weather + being indoors in a controlled environ all day doesn't help matters.

Well I'm just saying, pomade controls your hair better than gel or hair spray, doesn't stiffen it, doesn't look all plastic or slick like gel can, etc.. Give it a try.


Geez, talking astrology, women's fashion, hair styling tips, all in one day of posting. This is not looking good.

The volume on my TV. The little bar with a number that appears when I change the volume.

When I turn it up or down, I have to think of it in multiples of something. If I visualise the number as multiples of 5, for example, then I can't leave it on (say) 28, until I revisualise it as multiples of 2.

Its the only thing I'm OCD about!

Whenever I change it, it has to end in a 5 or 0. I'll suffer if need be. But it has to end in a 5 or 0.
