    What's your uptight behaviour?

    I'm halfway through my lunch, and can't finish because the aircon's just turned off so the office is quiet, and I don't want anyone to hear me eat

    Do you have an uptight behaviour that people laugh at but you just can't help yourself? or do you have a tip for me? I'm starving!

    oh, i hate that too! i can feel my blood pressure rising when i hear it i usually have to walk away.

    i agree with the poo thing as well - i think that's normal! although i used to have ibs & had to overcome my fear a bit because sometimes there was just no escaping it.

    according to DP, i blow my nose in a weird way. i'm not sure i can explain it - but i don't really just wipe across after i blow my nose, i sort of do each nostril individually. argh. this is just sounding weeeird now

    Oh I can not stand this. When you in a cash register line and the person feels they need to stand so close you can feel them breathing OMG!

    I am pretty bad, I could say yep to just about every thing PP have said.

    I can not brush my teeth with White toothpaste. HAs to be gel and spitting it out actually makes me gag, which leads me to....

    I can not stand to spit or to see someone spit, especially Plhem (sp?)

    I can not touch paddlepop sticks or wooden skewers and seeing someone else touch or chew on them make my bloos go cold.

    I can not touch people hair once it is no longer attached to a head. Animals are fine which is really lucky since I am a vet nurse

    I can not eat corn on a cob, have to cut it off.

    I can not leave a volume on an odd number, even numbers only for me.

    Okay I will stop now before I start looking too crazy.

    Wow, I'll poop in any toilet. I even use the disgusting manky ones all through africa and south america etc. I don't like to hold

    I can't stand people standing too close behind me in a queue. I'll back up and move forward to try and create some space but some people jsut don't get it and insist on coming up really close behind you. I had one person once talking REALLY loud on their phone RIGHT behind me. I tried moving and she kept coming right up behind me. I was giving her daggers in the end.

    I just realised another one of these things that I do the other day - the toilet paper and paper towels HAVE to be plain. No patterns. I don't even know why, but I'll even buy the more expensive brand if it means it doesn't have a pattern on it.

    I'm not crazy, I swear!

    Wow! I am far too lazy to be OC about most of these things!
    My only really major one is again the poo thing - I find it embarassing to have to poo where others will know it was you that did it - like at work where there are only a handful of us who use the same loo.
    In public toilets, I couldn't care less.

    I thought I was the only poophobic person lol. I used to have a 'thing' where I was even phobic of DP's pooing! A couple of times during our relationship we've lived in a place with only 1 toilet, and had to share. The first time I had to go into the toilet after he'd um, done his thing I was all worried about what to do. I mean, do I acknowledge the stink? LOL. I didn't know whether to pretend I didn't notice, or what. Luckily we're back to 2 toilets so it's just an unspoken rule that we use our own when it comes to number 2's.

    Also, people who chew pencils.

    Overuse of staples. I used to work in an office where I had to scan massive amounts of paperwork, (think a pile half a metre high and you're getting close) and it drove me crazy when people would staple the heck out of their documents. I dropped a few F bombs trying to remove 5 and 6 overlapping, crinkled up, poorly used heavy duty staples more than a couple of times, LOL

    Having to put empty beer bottles in the recycling bin, which is no more than 10 steps from the kitchen bench. No darling, they don't belong on the bench when you're finished. I'm pretty sure I mentioned this a few times over the last 4 years.

    This thread is great!

    I thought it was normal too until DH ridiculed me because I wouldn't use the facilities at the ILs place (which BTW are right next to the lounge room )

    Ohhhh nasty, I would never be able to use the toilet. I hate going to hotel rooms for that reason, coz you can always here the toilet! I plan ahead, and turn on some music about half hour before, so Professor won't hear me and also won't know that I'm actively disguising the noise.

    The sponges on a stick are for wiping
