like an object. or a number. a date. or anything.

something that you associate bad things with?

sprinkles (i know that sounds weird but i get sick every time i see then).
especially halloween ones. orange and black ones.

and the number 17.
the 17th of most any month scares me.
2 months in particular.
i will not park in a spot that is numbered that.

i can't stand not having 123 sheets of paper in my printer. if i print 5 pages, i'll immediately add 5 pages to it. if i suspect someone has taken a sheet (or even added) i will count it.

I throw out milk starting a week before the expiration date.

Can't be too careful.

I also set the clock next to my bed to be 20 min fast. For some reason, I think this helps me and that I haven't figured it out even though I've done it for going on 10 years now.

I'm going to try to think of more. This is fun.

2/13/2008 12:57:00 PM

That's not really bad luck though, just OCD.

2/13/2008 12:58:03 PM

^^^well my 17 issue is bad luck i think
mostly the date of the 17th (shuddddders)

only one exception jan. 17th
nothing bad has ever happened then


but yes. this has turned into a quirks/ocd thread
which is fine with me


phobias anyone?
mine-
effing cotton balls and wool
moths
low flying planes (literally my heart hurts when i hear one coming)

maybe I'm not thinking about this deeply enough, but I dont really have any bad "stuff" like this


I guess the only thing I can think of is Holly Tree Road down in Wilmington, I was arrested twice on that road

I'll have to give it some more thought...I KNOW YOU'LL BE ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT

I like mine to be on 4 or 8. The even-number rule applies to TV as well.

2/13/2008 1:16:40 PM

tv volume, right?

2/13/2008 1:16:56 PM

yep should have been more specific.

2/13/2008 1:17:49 PM

i only watch even channels.

2/13/2008 1:18:55 PM

The number that equals 42 + 1 is both powerful and bad. It's uses will seduce you if you're not careful. Like if you race motorcycles as that number you'll probably win for two seasons and then wreck and become a quadriplegic.

JUST AN FYI FOLKS.

Whenever I watch porn, I have to have the video player so that the time bar is visible. I need to know how much time has elapsed and how much time I have left. This is mainly for beating, but its come to apply when I watch porn in social situations as well. I can't be comfortable watching a scene unless I'm aware of the timeframe.

If my gas-meter is below the one-quarter mark, it haunts me, and I cannot drive comfortably until I get it filled up

2/13/2008 1:20:21 PM

Oh yeah.
My girlfriend won't stop on even numbers for the TV volume.
I won't stop on 13.
Which means we have to choose between 11 and 15.
You can't hear 11.
15 is way too loud.

WTF, b!

If you were ever in the car with me and saw how low I let my meter go, you'd probably go bat-shit insane.

I won't use a drive-up window for anything. A dude put a gun in my face in Wilmington at a drive thru ATM and hit me with it twice. Now I go inside even for fast-food.

2/13/2008 1:24:33 PM

^awww

2/13/2008 1:24:54 PM

I knew a teacher in high school who avoided the number 4.

He was scared of it.

All the numbering on his tests went 1, 2, 3, 5, 6.

He was in a gas station as a kid when an armed robbery occurred and his dad's life was threatened. He told the police that the robbers had the number 4 tattooed on their foreheads. He said that looking back it was probably swastikas on their foreheads, but he thought they were "4"s. Anyway, even though he was 35 years old he wouldn't have anything to do with the number four.

2/13/2008 1:24:54 PM

I'm the same way you are with you gas tank about my toilet paper.

Whenever it gets even remotely low, I throw the rest out and put a fresh roll in.

The thought of running out midwipe haunts me.

yeah mine usually originate with playing poker in casinos

if im listening to something and go through a particularly rough spell, it gets taken off the ipod.

sprinkles, aka a food. i can at least see SOME sort of rational... but the number 17? you know you're making those 'days' and that number worse by singling it out like that...

i always put the toilet paper on the roll the same way.
i don't like when my gas is below a quarter tank either.
my lucky number is 13, contrary to popular superstition.
i cannot stand touching, looking at, or even talking about cotton balls. typing this makes me cringe.
the same goes for oysters. ewww.
i always open my programs in the same order at work. i have them grouped together by application on the taskbar as well.
i pretty much just have tons of little ruitines. (minor ocd)
i worry all the time.
i used to not mix my food on my plate. they couldn't touch either.

i'm sure i have some more little quirks, i just can't think right now.
