What's your OCD?

**keith720** · 11-07-10, 08:59 PM

Mine is Green Beans. If I have any dishes prepared with Green Beans in them, I have to eat the Green Beans first. I don't like them all that much, and I guess I think they will ruin the taste of everything else!

Mine is O/R. If any internet connection is able to access O/R, I have to check O/R first. I think it already ruined my taste for anything else!

Coffee or something cute dies.

**adroitcuffs** · 11-07-10, 10:11 PM

Hmmm, I have a few.....
First one that comes to mind (since Keith started off with food) is that I generally don't like my food to touch. If I go to the buffet, everything has it's separate place on the plate. I cringe when I see my tablemates mixing food together.... bleh.

One of my coworkers brings his entire lunch in one container. He has been known to throw a can of blueberry pie filling on top of everything.

Counting. I am often compelled to count things.

Crinkled sheets when getting in bed it has to be straight.

Oh man....I got me some OCD's. My wife actually tells me (sarcastically I think) that I've got a mild form of aspergers because I get so particular about everything. First day off from work - I stay up all day and clean the house and start on my "to do" list that I've compiled during my work week. The house needs to be spotless and clean. I hate it when the house is dirty. Everything in the house has it's place. Everything. And when I say "place" I mean PLACE. The candle on the coffee table doesn't belong on the side, or the edge, it belongs directly in the middle. The DVD case doesn't belong on the tv stand, it belongs in the DVD stand, whether it has a DVD in it or not. Turn lights off when you leave a room. Dirty dishes go in the dishwasher, not the sink. My toothbrush goes on the left side of the vanity, with the brush facing out. If you use the last of something, refill/replace it. If you move something, put it back when your done. Her mail goes on the right side of the office desk, mine is on the left, bills go in the middle. Etc, etc, etc, the list could go on forever. Basically, everything needs to be orderly and clean. My wife hates it.

Man oh man, you are dominant C on the DiSC. I am too simply because I am detail oriented. However I tend to use my understanding of other dominant C personality types to push buttons because their buttons are big, blinking, and give me wonderful reactions. Oh how much fun there is to be had

I'm sure I have a few.......but the one that stands out for me is, on my work days, I get ready (dressed) the same way EVERY time...........;-)

**SteelCityK9Cop** · 11-08-10, 06:10 PM

#1) Germs... I am constantly washing my hands, alcohol gooping my hands, refusing to touch stuff..

#2) Getting dressed for work... Left sock, right sock, pants, left boot, right boot laces crossing left over right.... you get the idea.

**Cidp24** · 11-08-10, 08:07 PM

I'm OCD about being disorganized. I do it rather well, too.

**pgg** · 11-09-10, 09:57 AM

I try to be lazy

As much as I enjoy biscuits & gravy, I always order the gravy on the side so I can dip my biscuits. Don't want to end up with putrid mush, lol.

**Wolven** · 11-09-10, 08:42 PM

Right now I am sitting at home trying not to look beyond my laptop....had carpets cleaned in the bedrooms...all the stuff from the bedrooms is all around the house while the carpets dry....which is driving me absolutely NUTS. And then the dogs walked around the mat/towel at the front door and I got wet dog prints on my wood floors...I about went postal.

I like my home and vehicle clean and organized..no clutter...all is good in my world if that is how things are...if not..it stresses me the hell out when not much else does.

**Jks9199** · 11-10-10, 12:01 AM

Light switches.

Those panels where you've got two or three together? Want 'em all pointing the same way at each end. For example, the upstairs switches both should be down unless someone's up there. All the switches in the living room should be in the same way.

**121Traffic** · 11-10-10, 03:06 AM

Holy shit...I was going to chime in with some things that drive me nuts, like the inside of my windshield being dirty/foggy, or my MDT height being changed, etc. You guys are clearly nuts.

**IDBLTAP** · 11-10-10, 04:28 AM

For me if the lights are off the switch needs to be in the down position, toilet paper over the top, and toilet seat lid must be down. In terms of work/uniform, gun has to be in the same spot or it doesn't feel right (slightly forward of pant seam), gig line must be straight, and it takes atleast a couple minutes at the beginning of my shift to get the driver seat in the right position.
