poll: your OCD-ness

[Miles Long]

I replied that I fold my panties but I'm a bit of a mess in every other drawer.

I'm not sure if this qualifies...

when I return from the gym I will not enter the door until I do either 3 sets of 10 calf raises or 2 sets of 15....on the second to last step.

How do you decide which one to do?

 

[NippleMuncher]

I'm so far from OCD. I tend to be sloppy and disorganized, constantly looking for some missing item. I finally (well, my husband finally) came up with a system for me for the very important items I used to frequently lose. You know, keys, license, debit card, phone...

It's spankings, isn't it? 3 swats for every item you lose?

I'm OCD about towels.. I fold them a certain way so it's easy to pull one off the shelf and hang it.. no muss, no fuss.. everyone else seems to fold it the wrong way (ha ha)

 

[SunDevilGirl]

How do you decide which one to do?

Depends on the barometric pressure.

Dear, you need a real dictionary.

What about genetic? Is that like generic?

Perhaps in this case, geriatric applies, yes?

Haha! It was more like, "Here's a hook and a place for your stuff. For the love of all that is holy please, please, please use them!" The look of desperation in his eyes made it clear that my frequent pleas for help were not going to be met wit happy-to-help hubby going forward." (I did need help an awful lot).

Spankings may have been distracting...

Are you by any chance blond and live with me, 'cause I gotta tell ya, this woman tries my patience on a daily basis! There is theright way, the wrong way, the hard way, and her way, which is the absolute most wrongerest, hardest way possible.

I read that as food panty and was so confused for a moment.

I could see that. Your mind was probably still dwelling on Hunky McPlumberston and how he dealt with your leak and drips.

Clearly not a real plumber. . . . No buttcrack. If my plumber had looked like that, I would have stayed downstairs to watch.

Dear Friends,

Well, you have all grown to love and respect me for my neat and classy nature. You don't become this classy without having a few OCD tendencies.

Clothes are my biggest OCD issue. I have one closet for shirts and suits. This closet is organized thusly, from left to right. Closet 1:

Ties (on a tie rack)
Suits
Sports jackets
Dress shirts (starting with white)
Casual shirts (starting with white- not shown in pic)

The next is the pants closet. There is one hanger per pair of pants. Yu remove the pants from its hanger, then return once washed or dry cleaned. This helps keep the colours sorted. theres nothing worse than looking for a pair of camel coloured pants only to pull out light khaki!!! Closet 2:

Summery light pants begin on left to dark pants on right.
Sweaters are also in this closet, but that's due to overcrowding in the shirt closet.
Shorts are laid neatly on the top rack.

I call this 50 Shades of Khaki. Rainshine calls it 50 Shades of Gay. She's a dickhead.

The following is my shoe closet. My pride and joy. My preciouses. Closet three is organized as such:

Flip flops and sandals at the bottom.
Black dress shoes.
Black drivers/loafers
Brown/cognac/cordovan dress shoes
Brown casuals
Coloured shoes (is that politically correct?)

You must click for this link, as I don't want the casual forum stroller to cum in his or her knickers when looking at those sexily organized shoes.

I have others. For instance, my skin care and teeth brushing regimen is often the arse of Rainshine's jokes. She does not understand the need for washing one's self more than her weekly bucket bath, the concept of dental floss or skin care in general. With that said, the little fucker has the most beautiful and radiant skin I've ever seen. Imagine if she washed and moisturizer every day.

Oddly, my office is horrendous. Papers everywhere. It makes me look busy.

Cheers,

Pmann

That is a finely organized closet Pmann. I have to ask. What is with the orange pants? What does one wear with those unless deer hunting? Maybe you should do a pictorial of the orange pants outfit on the fashion thread. Inquiring minds and all that.

I think you have more clothes than I do, and I have at least 2 tons of clothes. My closet is totally unorganized since I have a teen girl rooting around in there all the time, and I just don't have the strength to fight it anymore. I am planning on getting rid of half my wardrobe. I'm in a "let's pitch everything mood."

I do think maybe I have more shoes, since I do have a shoe organizer full of high heels, plus 2 under bed boxes full of summer high heeled sandals, and a 80 gallon plastic tote full of boots in storage, plus the shoe organizer I share with the kids downstairs that currently has my running shoes, and the four pair of boots I wear most often. Yes, I know I have a problem, and I am planning to cull the herd. No really, I am.

The pants aren't actually orange, though they do appear it in the picture. They are a more classy salmon than a bright orange. The other pair... Well, those are a little more orange, but still leaning salmon like. Maybe farm raised salmon.

This is after I have culled the clothes. I gave away probably 15 pairs of pants and 20 shirts. About six months before that, it was probably the same thing that got culled again. I'm super picky about clothes. As you can see, I'm classy as a thoroughbred's arsehole.

The shoes have also been culled. None of my sneakers are on there, except one pair I think I see sticking out. But I only wear those at the gym.

I believe those are from the "Parachute Club Collection". Worn when you want to Rise Up and Walk to the Rhythm of Your Heartbeat.

pmann, although you appear to have issues deeper than your sock drawer, it is easy to see how fashion has brought you and Rainshine closer together.
Denim vests ≠ pastel and peach colored pants.
Breakfast Club ≠ Miami Vice.

Your hearts took a ride in DeLoreans powered by flux capacitors, and found each other in nineteen eighty something or other.

Very sweet.

Rainshine grew up in the 80s. I was a product of the 90s. However, many would argue my style is so classic, it knows no time. Many would argue that. MANY.

All your hangers are facing the same way. I approve.

 

[NippleMuncher]

Yes, but he gets 10 demerit points because the hangers are not color coordinated not only to the clothing that hangs from them, but in an orderly fashion either. And he has the gall to call himself the fashion fairy . . .

 

[silverwhisper]

huh. never answered my own poll.

you know how in TVs and stereos the volume is a number? i always want the number to be a multiple of 4.

when going up/down stairs, it irritates me when there's an odd number of steps.

when i eat chips (crisps for your commonwealthers), i always eat the broken ones first before the intact ones.

What about genetic? Is that like generic?

Same root, GENUS.

Perhaps in this case, geriatric applies, yes?

God has been kind allowing me to live and see young girls grow old. Those 20-somethings are now 50-somethings.

[Acktion]

OCD?
Please, sometimes I'm so OCD it has to be properly described as CDO....

Hell yeah. Alphabetized.

Long ago I was lagging a boiler at a power house, and our old man super took me aside and reminded me that we weren't building a Swiss watch, we were building a boiler.

And because you don't like to share, this must be why you mash your hand in the bowl first.

i also have been known to lick a slice of pizza to lay claim to it.
