So what kind of OCD stuff do you do?

When I select a volume level on anything, it MUST be an even number.. Drives me nuts too because most songs on my cd player sound the best at 25, but I can't have that.

 

I also used to do this same very thing! Picked it up from my gf at the time, which is now my wife (she was a gf years ago then we split up and got back together), the same one that thinks it's now crazy that I'm so OCD! LOL!

 

I use my wipers a lot... I hate dirty windshields... I also have to have my volume level on numbers divisible by 5 or max.

 

Pretty sure everyone has the volume number OCD on either even #'s or multiples of 5.

Im of the even #'s variety.

Welcome btw.

 

thanks!!!

 

I turn the music down in my vehicles and if i hear any sound out of the ordinary I'm at the shop saying"listen to this".

 

on my DC, when I leave the windows open a little bit they all have to be exact same gaps or very close to it.

 

I do both. My stereo is at 22 when all the windows are closed, 25 when I open the driver's side window, and 30 or 35 when a good song comes on. But I put it down to 12 or 15 when I have passengers, so I can hear them.

If I open the driver's window the rear driver's side is open exactly the same amount. And when my passenger opens their window, I open the rear passenger one the same, haha. I define it as a wind effect. I don't like wind in my face, and when I open the rear window, it just passes right through like a tunnel and not in my face. But if the rear window is open too much, the cab gets that funny pressure effect that hurts my ear drums...



...too much explanation?

 

i do the same f*cking thing for both...

 

I'm right with ya man, and when I get out and park and crack the windows each one has to be perfectly even.

That and when I'm in the gym every time I put the plates on the bar when doing any kind exercise with it all the handles have to be perfectly lined up or I have to adjust it.

 

This...OMG!!!!

When I take my shorts or pants off in the evening I will leave everything in them. When I put new ones on I will transfer everything from one pair to the next. I never leave anything laying out. If I do, I manage to forget it. Same with cell phone, it stays clipped onto my belt and transferred to new pair of shorts or pants. I also always shower in the same order with everything.

 

i have to have all the labels in my beer fridge facing the same way.

 

That and if someone messes with my seat postion, I'd be adjusting that thing for five minutes until it's just right.

 

I too, have some OCD worth noting,

here we go...

-my money has to be organized, no corners bent or folded in the wallet, from lowest to highest
-when i get ready for the next day i lay my outfit out and place everything im putting in the pockets next to that specific pocket so i dont forget anything,
-When i shower, i wash to the left of the showerhead
-When i take change out, it is stacked face up from lowest to highest in a neat little stack
-when my alarm goes off, i hit snooze 3 times, everyday
-my music is always loud
-when i park, i push the windows down to the vent-visors perfectly.
-i organize my shirts (color,long or short,t-shirt,polo.dress) in stacks so i dont have to fumble around when i pick something to wear
-My hoodies are also arranged this way(color)
-My truck will be parked next to a tacoma if i can help it(dont care how far i have to walk)


My gf complains but idc

 

When I get home cell goes on charger, wallet goes on a lip that runs throughout the apt, and keys get hung up. Any change or bills under 20$ goes into 5 gal jugg.

Washing meisrobe jump in the shower and wash my body top to bottom. Drying off is in the same order.

Truck: When I wash the truck I start from driver side fender and work my way around the truck and finish the wheels and tires at the end. Then move into the inside with qtips and toothpicks for those hard to reach places. Everything has to be in its place otherwise I don't go no where Till its proper.

Apt: I get up and immediately make the bed and pick up anything that I threw and missed in the hamper the night before. Apt has to be tidy tidy tidy.

I think that's about it... I THINK

 

Well at least no one has displayed any negative OCD habits. haha

 

Yeah, I didn't think about that. I am the same way. Volume on even numbers only. Also for cash, I have larger bills on bottom, smaller on top, in order, they all must face the same way as well, then I fold them in half before putting in my wallet. Also when in wallet, they are top-up so that when I open my wallet they look "normal" and not upside down. I actually HATE when they count out your change and hand it to you with the smaller bills on the bottom. I will hold up the line while I reorganize the bills and put them in my wallet.

 

I love it when you post ^


I hate it when they put all the change on top of the bills and hand it to you in one pile, then you spill the change all over the floor. I give them dirty looks as I take the bills first, hold them between 2 fingers out of the way of the palm of my hand and then accept the change. Also, I've been known to take it all in one pile and purposely fumble with it just to make them look like an idiot.

 

I have too many to name, but one that's Tacoma-related is the radio station controls on the steering wheel. When I go through the preset stations I HAVE to go from 1 --> 6 in that order. If I want to go back to preset station No. 1 (for example) and I'm on preset No. 2, I have to cycle through 3,4,5,6 before I can get back to 1. I never use the reverse/down arrow.

 

I honestly could care less. I use 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 pretty frequently because it's a good level of volume depending on the circumstances.

On a side note, a few years ago one of my friends hooked up with my Fiance's roommate/friend. It was a bit awkward the next morning to say the least. Well in the car the volume ended up being a even number and my Fiance's friend made a big deal about it being even (she is super OCD and has to have odds). My friend not really paying attention then blurts out "I know I can't stand odd numbers." As you'd imagine those two never hooked up or hung out again.
