OCD
I take eggs out of the carton from both ends so that the remaining eggs are symmetrical in the center. But I do tolerate an odd number of eggs remaining so I guess not a severe case.

That pile of magazines had better be cleanly stacked and parallel with the edges of the coffee table, am I right?

I am oppositional and contrary, obsessively. That doesn't help anything.

It's not a big deal if you do that stuff. It's a big deal if you CAN'T NOT do it.

^^^ I start at one end, and work toward the other. Any other way is just weird.

All light switches must be in the down/off position as I head to bed.
Recently moved into a new place and had to change 4 switches that the electrician didn't have set to be down/off (is that called a 3-way when you have two switches for the dining light?).

My upraising was influenced by strict German merchant mariner, my wife was by west van hippy mixed with American contentious objector. I bite my tongue a lot and probably should get a mouth guard for nighttime.
Regarding eggs, folks were in the small farm biz. Now I arrange the eggs by size, so that orderly selection also results in even cooking across the batch. Don't get me started on something lying about on the floor at home that others are observed walking by oblivious.
Weed and whiskey helps.

I'm not OCD, it just makes more sense to have the toilet paper over the top, tooth paste squeezed from the bottom, and take eggs from the far end of the cartoon so it doesn't over balance when you remove it from the frig.
I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...iscariot

OCD
I certainly am not the life of any party, but I always get the invite cause when shit goes sideways, I am the one that keeps his shit together and gets the group outa the soup.
But ya, one old roommate from many moons ago used to call me old straightedge. I suppose that's a step up from blockhead kraut.

These are just personal habits,not OCD
OCD is an anxiety disorder characterized by uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts and ritualized, repetitive behaviors you feel compelled to perform. If you have OCD, you probably recognize that your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors are irrational—but even so, you feel unable to resist them and break free
