What's your OCD? - Blu-ray Forum

liquidice · 06-02-2009, 03:23 AM

I cannot have my receivers volume set on a half, meaning it has to be 22db, or 23db, it can never be 22.5db. Another is my car stereo volume always has to be an even number.

All my light switches have to be in the same position. Up for on, Down for off.

cajmoyper · 06-02-2009, 03:28 AM

I have to turn the main power switch off when my PS3 is off. Most everybody else I know just turns off the system.

My OCD is I have to buy at least 10 blu-rays a month.

Fingerprints...on anything!!

I see them, I have to clean them! My kids dare not touch my TV!

Phobia: Crowded in by people! To many people in my personal space makes me want to scream!!!

Toilet paper must go over the roll. Not under.

me too

also if any gear isn't "straight" but slightly slanted i have to go move it so it is aligned with the stand

Batman1980 · 06-02-2009, 03:49 AM

That reminds me, with my movies on shelves, they all have to be aligned the same way, I hate when some are kind of higher than the others or the back is kind of sticking out.

Dude....you're sick!

Toilet paper under/over is an easy one for me: OVER!!!!

Anything shiny, like glass or chrome surfaces, but really anything at all, must be fingerprint and waterspot-free. Glass and shiny surfaces get me the most, though. I've got a pretty shiny car, and the windows, wheels, and chrome are always spotless. I hate it when someone wipes down a surface with a rag that was too wet and it leaves streaks.

Also, light switch plates. The flat-head screws that keep them fastened to the box must be perfectly horizontal. Also acceptable would be both vertical, but not a mix of the two... AND DEFINITELY NOT SOME NON-RIGHT ANGLE!!!!

Siri · 06-02-2009, 03:57 AM

My volume is always at increments of 5, never say 43 or 47, it has to be 45 or something that ends in a 5. My Blu-rays must be in alphabetical order

jephdood · 06-02-2009, 04:05 AM

Funny you mention this.. I've cracked more plates than I care to admit trying to get the screws aligned. haha..

lol same ... and also dust

making sure all my blu's and dvd's are lined up nice and straight

MyBlu-rayBrotherEd · 06-02-2009, 04:18 AM

I'm a toilet paper over dude too.

Also, my shower curtain must be drawn when not in use. My movies must be lined up evenly and in alph-numeric order. And the vacuum lines in the carpet must be even. Oh, and I brush each tooth either 10 or 15 times depending on how much of a hurry I am in.

toef · 06-02-2009, 04:24 AM

All volumes have to be on an even number for me, whether it's a car stereo, TV, receiver, anything else.

Another is when setting an alarm clock, every digit in the time has to be different, and the time can't end in a 5 or 0.

I'm the same way, unless it's set at '5' then it's cool cuz it's half way.

It'd probably better for you to leave the power on (in standby mode). Turning your electronics completely off and on over the years can wear down on the life.

The volume on my receiver either has to be at an even number or at increments of 5.
