First person to make a grammar joke about the title is a retard.

Just saying.

I never let the microwave finish its cycle, I hit stop or pull the door open 1 second before the end and pretend that I've disabled a bombs internal timer. :cool:

Confusing spelling with grammar is retarded.

While brushing my teeth I pace around my bathroom. Sometimes I get into the zone while walking around and end up brushing my teeth for 10+ minutes.

Good point.

I think, however, that actually qualifies as the first joke about grammar so we'll settle for half retarded. :pac:

I have to brush my teeth - and shave - in the same sequence always.

Also I'm always going back into the house thinking I've left something plugged in or have to check all my car doors when I leave the car even though I have automatic, central locking.

My wife left me because she couldn't handle my OCD.

'Close the door five times on your way out' I said.

OldNotWIse

My hangers all have to face the same way in the wardrobe.

I like to put my toast in the fridge for ten minutes before I eat it.

If any of the flip-up seats on the luas are down, I have to put them back up (unless they are all down).

I can only start studying/working on an assignment on the hour (or on the half hour at a push).

I can't be in the same room as clusters/honeycombs, although that is actually a phobia (trypophobia) as opposed to a habit. Still makes me weird though!

volume of tv has to be in multiples of 5
or at 12 for some weirder reason

Sometimes when I'm driving I pretend I've 'terminator vision' which I use to scan for threats like kids running up the footpath or cars edging out from side-roads.

I have to always put my left shoe on first. Or else the world will stop spinning. Also, when helping my 8 year old putting on his shoes, I will always check that i'm picking his left shoe up first.

Also, when shaving, I would always start shaving near the top of my right ear. Couldn't shave otherwise.

When typing and notice a spelling mistake few words back, instead of correcting the one letter I will erase everything that's typed after the mistake.
When proof reading however, I will just correct the misspelled word.

The windscreen on my car has to be crystal clear when driving. Sometimes i need to refill the washer reservoir few times in same week.

I seem to have a thing about even numbers. It makes me nervous and irritable when the car stereo volume, for example, is set to 15 or 17 as opposed to 16, even when it's switched off.

Most impressive.

I cant allow the car radio to be on volume level 13. EVER.

Irish Stones

I can't stand an askew picture or frame on the walls, wherever they are. So if I am at somebody else's and they have a leaning picture on the walls I have to straight it up.

When walking on pavements I try to avoid all the cracks on the surface.

I like numbers multiple of 5, though my favourite numbers is 8.

There is more, but I can't remember them all

Corvo

I put egg on my pizza

Dog of Tears

When walking through automatic doors, I'll pretend I'm a Jedi and have used The Force to open the door.

RoyalMarine

I count everything in multiples of 8.

If it doesn't add up, it has to change. Driving on a motorway, I count bollards, cones, cats eyes, road markings, cars, etc in groups of 8. I can't stop driving until it's right... it's annoying, but I've learned to deal with it. One time, I was driving from Cork to Tipperary at 3am on Christmas Day. There were only 5 cars. I drove around the town until I found 3 more moving cars, then I went home...

Then Sicily is the place for you. Egg on everything!

The Peanut

Asked to pick a number between 1 and 10, first choice is always 2. Between 1 and 100, it's always 22.

Phone has to be charged to 100% every day even though I never run it fully down.

Can't put an unfinished bottle of wine back in fridge. If I can't finish it - rarely - it's poured down sink.

Except wearing suits, can't have top button of shirt closed. Same with sleeve buttons.

Oh, and I hate walking up steps/stairs. Have to jump/run. Always walk down.

Ush1

Smelling my tea before I remove the bag. People think it's weird but I can tell how strong it is.

jungleman

I wipe my ass with a towel and dry myself off with toilet paper after I shower.

ChippingSodbury

I have to count steps when either going up or down stairs. I get a real kick out of going up/down the first couple, forgetting to count, guessing what step I'm on and getting it right at the top/ bottom.

14 is the magic number in 99% of domestic houses (I can feel a pause coming in this thread as everyone goes off to check!!)

BeerWolf

When I'm relaxing, watching TV or reading a book and such... I got a tendency of pulling the collar of my t-shirt or jumper over my nose or mouth, don't know why.

More or less, but "pricks" aren't among the classic ingredients

I like plunging hot frying pans into sinks full of water and pretending I'm a blacksmith when the metal hisses and steams.

maximoose

If I'm walking across a road and have to speed up/jog to the other side to avoid an oncoming car - every single time without fail, without consciously doing so I'll match each footstep with an "aye, yai, yai..." etc in my head until I've made it across.

It drives me furious and I can't stop it.

I also can't pass one of these type bushes without picking a leaf off and feeling the waxy goodness.

Generic Dreadhead

Some off the top of my head.

1) I have to ensure my sexual partner climaxes 3 times for every 1 time I climax or I get freaked out
2) If I see post it notes I have to eat the part with the glue on it and chew it 14 times
3) I dress up as Santa 4 times a year exactly 3 months apart each time (25/03, 25/06, 25/09, 25/12)
4) I cannot own a car with the following letters or numbers in the licence plate: 2, 3, 7, 9, F, H, P, R,
5) I tell a lot of far fetched lies

newbie13

When I am driving I don`t like to hear any type of noise or sound from car, or error engine light on dashboard, squeezing wipers would kill me. Stucking in traffic would cause me heart attack.

Pumpkinseeds

If I can't sleep I'll count backwards from a hundred, picturing sheep jumping backwards over a fence. If that doesn't work then I just count backwards from 300 and make myself start over if I get a number wrong, weird, but it works for me, mostly.

Shaving your ears is the really weird habit there.

ShadowHearth

Jaysus, where to begin.

Lights in the house on only in a rooms that actually in use. I hate when lights are on and room is not used. Drives me fecking nuts when my house mate is in as he always turns on lights fecking everywhere for no reason.
I always have a set limit for myself in bank account under which I don't go. If I spend more money and go over the limit it drives me crazy until next paycheck.
All doors in the house have to be closed. I think I got ocd with that one.
Phone charging over night every night. Even if it's still 100%, that bastard still gets plugged in for the night.

Bad practise, you can warp or crack your frying pan doing that.

I do that too, but only because it has a really loud, long beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep that annoys me.

Alun

I hate light switches that don't all line up in the same direction when the lights are off, i.e. when you have two switches one at each end of the hallway that control the same lights, so I'll walk to the other end of the hallway to switch it off rather than use the one I'm closest to.

It's a five pound piece of sh*t from Morrisons. Feeling like the youngfella off Game of Thrones is a fair trade off in my eyes.

akelly02

i always count the amount of seconds i take a piss for, and try to figure out how much there is in litres.

ShadowHearth

Just remembered one more while driving home from work: I hate when petrol tank goes below half. When i see it approaching half, I just have to fully fill it up the bastard.
