    I count the number of steps I take everywhere. Like I'll count up to 16 or 20 or some random number and then start again. Gets really annoying running a marathon wondering how many times I counted up to x number throughout the race and got irritated when someone interrupted my counting. "Sorry runner I can't say hi because i'm busy counting like I'm insane..." WTF

    I make math formulas out of license plates even though I hate math

    I NEED to sleep with covers so the boogey man doesn't get me. Even if I'm sweating.

    I just count a lot of stuff randomly - like the number of blinds in the string or words on a page or letters in the page.

    I also absolutely positively cannot wear any socks with a hole in them. It doesn't matter if the whole is almost invisible or where it is. hole in sock goes in the garbage immediately. No questions asked.

    I also pretend like I'm really tough and would knock a bad guy out in an instant but I'm truly terrified and walk with my key sticking out between my fingers so if I had to punch someone id stab them?

    I don't mix foods. If I'm eating a hamburger and fries I need to eat the whole hamburger first, followed by the fries, followed by my drink. only in rare cases will I interchange foods. I'm a firm believer in divider plates - but they are all in the kids section :(

    I chew my food in multiples of seven.
    I always wear three spare hair-ties around my right wrist in a very specific place, never anywhere else.
    I don't like the different foods on my plate touching unless they're "supposed" to. (EX: Peas and mashed potatoes never touch)

    I double-check both the locker and shower before I leave the gym everyday. In the 2 years I've been going to the gym, I was able to go from triple to just double-checking! Yea for me!

    The closet door has to be closed when I sleep. The bedroom door has to be closed when I sleep.

    I wash most of my recyclables in the dishwasher, b/c that's just sanitary...but probably weird.

    I have a favorite spoon...I won't let my kids use it.

    I arrange all my clothes in my closet. Short sleeve shirts, then mid sleeve shirts, then long sleeve shirts, skirts, etc.

    I do this as well!

    *deep breath* where to start...

    -I do things in fours or numbers that are even (2,4,8,16 etc) but not 12 as that can be done by 3. and Nothing can be done 3 times

    -I check fridge/freezer doors are closed, still switched on and that gas is off

    -If I've been out I will check every single possible hiding place in a set route so that someone couldn't hide in one room and go into the other that I've already checked

    -I cannot sleep tucked in I have to be able to free my legs and arms so I sleep with literally only the edge of the duvet covering me

    - All cupboard doors must be shut all curtains must be closed fully and the bedroom door must be open and the hall light is always on at night

    - I cannot keep my toothbrush in the bathroom, or if it has to be it will be in the cabinet if I had my way I'd change it every single use, if it's been knocked over onto the side I'll get a new one out if we have none I'll pour boiling water over it.

    -similarly no one is allowed to use my mouthwash, toothpaste or 'bar' soap (if i have it), towels or wash cloths.

    check I unplugged the hair straightener and stove 2 or 3 times before I leave, annoying as hell.
    in my defense I was burgled in my 20's and they set the apartment on fire. I couldn't tell my parents cuz there was no way in hell I was gonna hear "SEE WE TOLD YOU NOT TO MOVE OUT UNTIL YOU WERE MARRIED" :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    I only eat Tic-Tac's in two's and four's. Mostly two's if they are of the same color and flavor but occasionally I bump it too four, four if they are in a case with two separate flavours. (Two of each). No matter what if there isn't enough left to make a two or four combination, or if there is an uneven color to color ration, I will make someone else eat the last ones.
    ^ This I have to have one of each colour though and if it's only one flavor I'll have 2 of that one flavor any odds someone else will get them

    I eat the skin on the inside of my mouth and then drink the blood.
    I wouldn't have put it like that :laugh:though I chew the inside of my mouth to the point of bleeding if I'm focused or bored and if my lips are chapped I will have to make it smooth again by chewing at it which makes it worse so... :ohwell:

    I eat food in layers: top bun, toppings, burger, bottom bun.
    I count myself to sleep. If I'm not sleeping by 100 I know it's not time for bed.
    I also shake my butt and/or leg to help me fall asleep.
    I hand wash the dishes then put them in the dishwasher.
    I count my steps while running (usually to 8 then repeat, sometimes to 100 then repeat).

    I cannot jump in a pool or any other body of water.
    If I have mayo on a hamburger or sandwich with warm meat it cannot touch the meat because the heat will make it go off.
    If there's a teapot on a table it bothers me if the spout is facing someone. This is a hold over from my first marriage, they thought it was bad luck to have it facing someone. Freaks me out now.

    I group M&Ms by color before I eat them. I sniff gum and chocolate wrappers after I've opened them. I have to put on chapstick when I chew gum. I eat the raisins out of oatmeal raisin cookies, then eat the cookie.

    Sing and boggie like crazy to the radio while in the car.
    Sing very loudly and off key (on purpose I can carry a tune, off key is just more fun)
    Sing mock opera (very badly because i cannot sing opera)
    Sing "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen in the best Louis Armstrong voice I can do. In public
    Brush my teeth in the shower.

    Every door in my house has to be closed at all times or it freaks me out. Like right now the main bathroom door is open with a baby gate up to let the cats in but keep my 2yr old out (the litter box is in there) ad it bothers me when I go down the hall. Also my shoes need to be tied under the tounge. I have almost always done that. There's more but that's the 2 that quickly come to mind

    Oh, I also like to have some sort of sound at all times. A tv on low, music, a fan. Something. Or I'm uncomftable.

    When I sleep I use a sheet and a throw blanket for pillows. I can't use a pillow. I won't be able to sleep.

    I use one of said sheet or blanket to put over my eyes while I sleep.

    I have hair to my knees, I keep it up in a bun 24/7 but I won't cut it....

    I prefer bubble baths to showers, and still use Mr. Bubble. My girlfriend can't help but ask really loudly if I got enough Mr. Bubble to last me through the week, when we're in a crowded store. I really hate her sometimes.

    Sit down kids, let me tell you a tale.

    -I can't start a meal/tv show/movie until I've emptied my bladder. If it doesn't need emptying, I have to try anyway.
    -When I eat dinner I have to eat the food in order. I have to eat all the fruits/vegetables first, then the designated meat or protein, then the designated carbs/starches. For example I'll eat the salad, then the steak, then the rice. The spinach, then the chicken, then the corn.
    -I lick the powder off my doritos before eating them.
    -I can't just chew and swallow chocolate or candy. That's not enjoying it enough. I have to suck at it till it's nothing.
    -I eat the cake before the icing.
    -I eat the pie filling before the crust (especially on cheesecake. I love graham cracker crust)
    -I generally just attempt to leave the very best of my serving of food to the last.
    -I don't take bites of my food if I don't have to. I break off a piece with my hands, then eat that. Unless of course it's a food that requires utensils.
    -Sometimes with cakes, pancakes, lasagna, etc, I have to completely shred and massacre my portion into pieces before digging in. Never with pie, however. That's just madness.
    -My bedroom door has to be closed when I go to bed. In the summer my window has to be open a crack.
    -When I go to bed I wrap myself into a sort of burrito in my blankets. More like a hard taco on it's side, with the blanket underneath me as well as on top of me.
    -When in a moving vehicle I need the window seat. I prefer staring out the window and imagining scenarios in my head to conversing with whoever's with me.
    -If I'm trying to read a particularly long list, sometimes I'll jump to the bottom and go up from there.
    -When I finish brushing my teeth I have to rinse my mouth with water three times.
    -Unless it's not mine and it's being offered to me, I always take two pieces of gum at once.
    -I always put vinegar, salt, and pepper on my fries. Lot's of vinegar, lot's of pepper.
    -In fact, I put pepper on anything savory, and lots of it.
    -I always drizzle tons of soy sauce on my rice.
    -I cannot have the same breakfast two days in a row.
    -I need either perfect organization, or absolute chaos. Examples: I normally eat healthy, but if I eat one thing unhealthy I feel obligated to stuff my face the rest of the day. When (if) I clean my room, it's absolutely perfect and neat and tidy and smells nice. But if it starts to get a bit messy, I stop caring; I throw dirty laundry on the floor, don't pick things up if I drop them, etc. I'm considered significantly intelligent, and have been since high school, but if I'm outted as not particularly proficient in something I stop trying completely. When I'm drawing something, and a certain aspect isn't exactly how I'd like it, I scribble all over the page before trashing it.
    -I get violent when I'm angry. I punch walls, kick things, pull my hair, hit my head, hit other people, etc. It'll be in a burst. Like, my anger will be stewing for a bit, but then something will cause it to flare up suddenly and I'll have a burst of violence.
    -I LOVE conflict, arguing, drama, and all that jazz. I crave it.

    I definitely have some sort of OCD, haha. The one that my family and friends makes fun of me for most is having to pee before we leave the house every time. Not only do I have to go each and every time, but I also have to be the last one to do so. It doesn't matter if I had just gone, I'll go again if you go after I do.

    Having all the doors shut is my thing too - not just when I'm sleeping but also when I'm showering.

    I sneak into people's homes and hide in the shower, under the bed, and in the closets while wearing a scary doll mask, just to keep people on their toes.


    ... I couldn't resist ;-)

    If I sit with my feet up within 2 minutes my right foot will begin moving in a counter clockwise direction. My father does this, my brother does this, my neice does this. No idea why.

    When I go out in the mornings to warm my car up in the winter ilI kinda jump in real fast because I have this crazy fear that something is under my car.
