    :oHave you any weird habits or ocd?

    I hate odd numbers if I cough say 3 times ill have to cough once more just to be even

    The microwave has to finish on an even number if I accidently put it on a odd number and it starts I start all over again

    If someone hangs out the washing and does it wrong I go out and put It the way its supposed to be! :D:pac:

    So how much of a weirdo are you lol?

    What?
    When the microwave has finished its display is on 00:00 :confused:

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

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

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

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

    Shaving your ears is the really weird habit there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,911 ✭✭✭✭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 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:
    I do that too, but only because it has a really loud, long beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep that annoys me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 21,558 ✭✭✭✭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.

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,911 ✭✭✭✭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.

    I talk to myself like a maniac when i'm making tea.

    I only like pasta sauce when it's cold sauce on hot pasta.

    If I'm playing an RPG each of my characters stats has to be an even number or a multiple of 5, same with volumes for everything

    I do same thing, and it drives me nuts when the stairs aren't an even number :)

    You are me. I do the "Lights on only where I actually am" and the phone charging all night one.

    I do the bank account one as well as it makes saving money a lot easier. I've trained myself to think of €XXX as really being €0 so make sure I don't go below that amount.

    I have to leave the doors open though as the cat likes to wander about the house at night.

    Which leads me to......

    If I see a cat on the street I must say "Hello". If the cat is sitting looking out the window, I must wave to it.

    I hate when I have to have a poo right after a shower, makes me feel dirty again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Magico Gonzalez


    Cannot abide being in a room with an open door. If there's a door, I'll shut it.

    When pissîng I always walk away from the toilet to see how far I can go before having to move back.

    Have tried it drunk and never works out :(
