I can’t believe I forgot this one… every number I see (time, license plate, ANY number over 2 figures) I check to see if it is divisible by three. I have been doing this since I was about 12.
When it isn’t divisible by 3, I mentally adjust it so it is. [/quote]
I always do that to. Example: whenever I see a 3 digit number, I always try to make two numbers equal to the other number by somekind of operation. If it doesn’t work, I am disappointed.
I can NEVER win a random drawing or any other contest with a random pick.
I have to keep my wallet in my right back pocket or else I don’t feel normal.
I sometimes read the encyclopedia for fun.
I will always notice when girls have done something with their hair, but I never notice when my mom has.
With certain friends, I talk about politics, religion, and other meaningful topics for hours. Yet, I can never seem to do this with 90% of the people I meet.
You are all fucked up. Seek help. Get on prozac now. No hope for you freaks. Such problems, well… who can deal. Not even Tony Soprano’s shrink could take these issues. Hang yourselves.
No matter how much progress I make or big I am getting at the time, I feel tiny. I am currently 220lbs with 10%bf and feel “OK” with where I am. At 240lbs at 15%bf and a 400lb bench I felt tiny. It is strange but the more progress I make the smaller and smaller I feel. WEIRD!!!
I am OCD, so I do a lot of strange things. This is just few…
If I rip a peice of toilet paper, knapkin, notebook, it has to be a clean rip, or I have to rip it again.
If the volume is visible on the appliance, it has to be an even number.
On the contrary, I eat things, let’s say cookies, in multiples of three.
Say, I’m eating some jelly beans(in a world where I don’t fear high fructose corn syurp), I would eat them in order of color and from my least favorite flavor to my favorite.
I always lock my car twice and I have to put the e-brake on.
At work they make me keep a log of all the orders I finish, if I make one mistake I re-write the whole thing instead of using white-out.
When I number things, such as this list, I have to end it on an even number, the only exception is seven, because it is supposed to represent perfection.

Who the fuck does that??
My cable boxes have been on since I moved in, that’s a little over 4 years. My computers and printers are always on unless we’re out for days. I don’t think I’ve turned my laptop off since I got it last year. The closest it got to being shut off is when travelling it goes on hibernate.
Yeah I never used the stuff until this winter. When I get a cold, I can get pretty chapped lips so I finally started using it. Never used to mind, but women…
So I was just thinking about why I still feel the need to use it lately, no cold and spring has sprung. As long as we think about “eating like a caveman” or training the way your body has “evolved to work”, on a similar note I just thought: what the fuck did people do before chapstick. WTF, right? So when I saw this I decided to try a google search. Got differing opinions.
"Chapstick isn’t addictive, but putting any moisturizer on lips tends to be habit-forming.
Lips are very psychologically-sensitive areas. Just thinking about them makes them feel dry. Whenever a patient complains of dry lips, I have to force myself not to lick them while they’re talking. For some reason, those who complain tend to be young adult women, though sometimes men do too.
The dryness is rarely part of some “disease.” Instead, a person starts licking their lips for no particular reason, then moisturizes, and then the cycle continues indefinitely, as saliva dries out the lips along with the act of thinking about it, and so on.
You might try an OTC or prescription cortisoneCortisol level
Cortisone ointment instead of a balnd mositurizer. That may reduce the inflammation long enough to help you break the habit.
Otherwise, don’t think about it too much."
As opposed to:
“This so-called addiction to lip balm is very real. We can alter the way the skin grows from the basal layer to the surface by applying something to the surface,” said Dr. Nicholas Perricone, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the Yale School of Medicine, to the Daily Herald in 2000. “What happens with continued use of lip balm is we’re putting a message on the surface of the skin that says to the base of the skin, ‘Do not proliferate. Do not double. Do not grow as rapidly as you normally do,’ because the signal is saying, ‘Close down, we’re sealed on top.’”
I’ve now officially resolved to kick the habit, at least for the summer. I’d rather be dependent on my body to grow new lips than reach for that damn stick of goo every 20 minutes like I’ve been doing.
Thanks.

Me too. Been using it for years. I think it’s literally physically addictive.

Mine is Chapstick. I need to have it everywhere I go. I have one in every jacket and coat. I put it on before I go out even if I don’t need it at the moment. My son has “picked up” this habit.
I feel uncomfortable if the car radio volume is not set at a prime number (13, 17 & 19 are favourites) or at the very least it MUST be on an odd number!

I don’t get dressed until I’m ready to leave my apartment. I stow the day’s clothes on the back of my couch. I get dressed just before leaving my home. Then upon returning I get undressed and drape my clothes over the couch. This has led to a couple awkward moments with UPS.
