Answer 2

Ha, I love this question...

I eat watermelon down to the rind.

I cannot stand open bottles and jars of food that just sits there... especially the milk. When you're done with it, close it up.

I turn the gallon milk jugs over and shake them a little to check for leakage before I buy them.

I only buy Simply Orange OJ... after tasting how fresh and yummy it is, I cannot go back to that Minute Maid crap. Ugh.

I alphabetize my DVDs.

I pick at my nails and hangnails... no, I don't bite them, I pick them.

I always knock the first part of "Shave and a Haircut" when knocking on doors.

I stack the little cream containers into pyramids when I'm at a restaurant.

I hate open windows at nighttime.

I dog-ear book pages to save my place.

I never make my bed (why make it if you're just going to sleep in it again?)

I always get my dressing on the side in restaurants, and will send it back if they forget and put it on the salad directly... I want to taste the salad, not a dressing soup.

I get really, really uncomfortable when I forget my watch when I go places.

Okay, that's enough for now. :)

Answer 3

Don't let this scare you but my closet doors are always open, yet I can not stand it when there is an open cupboard or drawer.

When I get ready in the morning I always do it in the same order.

when I eat a meal I always eat all of one thing on my plate before I touch anything else.

Answer 4

1. In a restaurant, I always think I ordered what I wanted the least.

2. Sitting in front of my computer, I never take my used cup to pour some more coffee but always bring a fresh one (as a result, my desk is packed with dirty cups).

3. I always do my bed at 9 pm although I know I will have to undo it in a couple of hours.

4. I always go to bed with the light on in case I don't feel sleepy and decide to do something.

Answer 5

When I eat a meal, I eat one part at a time (i.e. all the potato, then all of the meat, then all of the carrots) - I don't mix it up.

I alphabetise all the CDs and DVDs in our house.

I used to alphabetise the pantry. (I gave up soon after my husband and I moved in together)

I used to color co-ordinate pegs with clothes when hanging them on the clothes line. (We don't have a clothes line anymore)

I organise my daughter's crayons by color and shade, from white through to yellows, oranges, reds, purples, blues, greens, browns, black.

I can't sleep with the closet door open.

I organise stacks of magazines by date.

I can't stand pictures on the wall to be crooked.

All of the plates, cups, bowls, pots, towels, appliances etc in our kitchen have to be black, white, or silver.

Toilet rolls have have the paper coming over, not under.

And I hate dirty lids, like on toothpaste or tomato sauce bottles.

Oh, and I really can't stand obnoxious people on Yahoo Answers who abuse other users for fun. It's pathetic and cruel.

Answer 6

light switches. they all have to be down. it drives me nuts it there is one or two light switches are up when the light is off. at my house we have an upstairs halway light and it has 3 switches for that light so all three of them has to be down. especailly the 2 upstairs switches because we use them more.

i also like what nickels (below me) is. i eat one thing at a time.. i always have to eat my rice or noodles first because i don't like eating them cold. sometimes i do mix my food depening on wahat i am eating. like if i am having mashed potatoes i would mix my peas or corn with the potatoes. that's the only thing i mix.. but i don't really eat them in any order

Answer 7

I check every package of oreos in th store to make sure none are broken before I buy it.

I cannot eat milk with cereal unless the milk is so cold that it's beginning to freeze.

Otherwise I'm normal..

Answer 8

When I am upset or crying I bite my lip. I usually don't even know I am doing it until someone says something about it. And when I get mad I bounce my leg up and down. I'm also really anal about the way my 5 yr. old dresses. Things have to match!!

Answer 9

any. I really catch it trying to part my hair straight. I'll re-do it a

dbl. check my letters after I've dropped them into the mailbox.
