What are you **** about?

[mike052082]

For my OCD types out there. We know most people are **** about the care and storage of their tools but what is something that you are **** about.

I know I'm **** about making sure that the screws in the outlet and light switch plates are always horizontal (or vertical) but I stick with horizontal.

****** sockets,why cant people put the sockets back were they came from and give the socket a quick clean,The reason i purchased the sockets in a case was for them to live in the f##kin case.And while iam havin a ***** session same with my drill bits,Put them back were you found them

Hahaha! I'm the same way!!! I replaced all the outlets and switches in my house three years ago and all the screws are still horizontal!!!

 

[MDI09]

I have taken the toilet paper off the hanger and put back on the right way at other peoples houses more than once.

 

[koditten]

Air hoses and extension cords that won't coil. Thrown out more than a few that I could not get rid of the memory.

 

[Hpozzuoli]

I am **** about keeping the house/shop clean and orderly. If something is a mess or out of order I get cranky.

 

[Smokenarrow]

bedsheets... i sleep like **** if the sheets and covers are not proper

 

[zmaxmotorsports]

Everything I do,other than typing/spelling!

 

[Tigwldr]

Shoes piled at the front door. I built a really nice shoe rack that hold about 15 pairs of shoes. It sits right beside my front door. I still come in the house and everyone takes their D@mn shoes off and leaves them in the floor. Drives me up the wall when there is 10 pairs of shoes you trip over walking in the door.

 

[shopnut]

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

(And you can see I'm still in that total denial stage of my disorder )

 

[Scott r c]

Using a extension cord or water hose that is all knotted up. I have to unroll completely and get knots out before I use it.

 

[garboui]

At work especially, a full 44" wide drawer for the two sets of each, sae and metric wrenches to be laid out for an easy grab. no one can ever seem to put them in order, if their not in order the sets and measurement systems mixed, but most of the time they just get thrown on top.

 

[Wood'nMetal]

I have my hammers hanging on the wall in my shop.

I like them facing all the same way.

My kids like to go in and make random ones face the other way.

I hate them.

I have a set of sae and metric wrenches on peghooks in my garage. one of my buddies will always turn one or two over so that the open end points opposite and the box end points out

as much as hes doing this to mess with my OCD obsessions hes just as bad. On top of his tool particularities you cant turn the volume to an odd number on the car, he will always insist or bump it up or down one to an even number.

If you're at my place you're welcome to use whatever you want, that includes any of my ~70 extension cords. I'd rather you leave them laying in the yard or driveway than catch you wrapping them around your arm or coiling them instead of over/under wrapping them correctly. The same goes for my air hoses, just leave them and I'll put them away.

 

[brwbier]

well I have cdo, its like ocd only the letters are in the correct order like they should be.

 

[50shoe]

Facing bills. ($)

 

[rkstr]

I think the question should be, what am I NOT **** about.

 

[purplezr2]

toilet paper, hangs down in the front
Clean counters
Light off if you are not in the room
Screws on covers(first poster)
Clean bed sheets
color code my closest, all on color together
Tools organization. I can tell when someone has been in my box

 

[wagzilla]

I have a problem if your in my shop and use my tools before your done I will have cleaned it and put it away and watch you look for it for the next ten minutes before I tell you.

[steel 35]

Impact's / lug nuts

 

[Troutsqueezer]

I don't like it when my Direct TV DVR has less than 80% free space. I don't know why.

It's no good having them all the same direction if they haven't all been screwed in the same number of turns. Otherwise they all have different torques.

 

[oldtimehockey]

Oh God...don't get me started...but my late Dad drilled into me to put tools back where they belong when I'm done with them and I really do like to clean my tools before putting them away.

 

[Justanoldguy]

I'm **** about the word ****.
Sounds kinda like an ******** word..

 

[ZRX61]

Facing bills. ($)

Ditto.

THIS!!! I was a roadie for a few years. My cables/hoses all will unravel without twists or kinks provided some other *expletive* didn't roll them up. I am very proud though to say that my wife has seen the light, and she rolls everything correctly in an under/over fashion.

 

[bad_idea]

I coiled my neighbor's garden hose for her. It was in a pile in the driveway, I had to stop what I was doing and coil it neatly.

 

[dlcwent]

I'm with 50shoe and ZRX61. Can't stand it if all the bills $ are not in order of denomination and facing the same way. Not to mention a clean and orderly shop.

 

[NJHandyGuy]

Ditto on bills cords air lines and hoses

 

[HairMetal]

I have taken the toilet paper off the hanger and put back on the right way at other peoples houses more than once.

Which way is that?I think it should not be hanging against the wall.Maybe there is some weird bacteria on the wall that you can transfer on your *** via the toilet paper?

 

[NJHandyGuy]

On my tow truck the chains must be hung on the headache rack straps streched on the deck rails lassos tied tight

 

[HairMetal]

I'm that way with the tv screen aspect ratio, it drives me crazy when other people don't seem to notice it's wrong.I can't watch a movie if it's wrong.

 

[Bryan Burns]

A long board or ripstick in the middle of the garage floor. Or worse yet, on the garage floor near the door.

 

[2ndGearRubber]

Knots in cords
Leaving "Caps Lock" on, on computers
Ratchets/air-tools not being ALWAYS set to loosen when not in use
Having complete sets of sockets
Manual trans cars not being parked in gear
Leaving your phone/tool/drink on MY toolbox
Leaving wrenches/sockets/dirty rags on oil drains.
Not using my good torque wrenches to torque wheels and stupid stuff.
The inherent horror that is a power-strip.
My inspection stickers being super straight.

General disarray


I do a LOT for organization. "Everything has a home". So if you use a tool, I damn well expect it finds its' home! I showed you where it came from, the drawer; section; holder; space. So why is it on my toolbox, and not in its' home?

However, better it be on top of the box, then god-forbid in the wrong place!!!!

Yeah and pretty much all of this too, including the stickers, jeez i never knew i was so ''****'' and i pretty much despise people who are not like me.I thought i was just being a pro and doing stuff right.

I cant own a machine that doesn't work properly

I still come in the house and everyone takes their D@mn shoes off and leaves them in the floor. Drives me up the wall when there is 10 pairs of shoes you trip over walking in the door.

My wife and I went round and round with this one. One day I came home and literally tripped and fell on her damn shoes. I then quietly got up, opened the door and started chucking shoes one by one into the yard. I must have thrown 8 pair out there. She stood there and watched me and never said a word. She no longer leaves shoes at the door.

 

[sprchrgd1]

If anyone has seen my garage they definitely no that I am not ****. Neither is my wife! Oh wait that was for a different forum!

 

[volleyball]

I cannot think of anything I am **** about. But I can see a use for you guys. I'll throw a party at my house next weekend and you can all come and fix whatever your specialty is.
It will be fun for all.
