Hey Pandas, What Is A Pet Peeve That Makes Perfect Sense To You As The One With OCD, But Others Find Odd? (Closed)
We all have pet peeves - some big, some small. Our own make total sense, but maybe not to everyone. What little thing totally drives you mad?

When people day ocd when it's not ocd- from someone who has had people say I have ocd when I do not
or even any mental illness imo. I don't deal with OCD but I understand the feeling of hearing people say stuff that's just not true in that way.
When people use OCD as an adjective to describe being really picky or neat. It’s a crippling anxiety disorder.
COME ON, GUYS. We’re better than this.
I work at a coffee shop and the syrups at my station have to be in a certain order. To everyone else they're in no particular order, not by use or alphabetical, but I can't do my job if they are not in that specific order I have created.
WHEN PEOPLE DEAL TO THE RIGHT WOTH CARDS!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not even a big thing but I was playing uno with someone and they started dealing to the right and I was like wtf are you doing??? You deal to the left. And he was like um no? You start wherever you want. it's so small and the person to your left starts first so why not just start at the left??????
I have ADHD with a side of OCD
When cleaning a two-sided razor blade is my favorite tool. People think I'm nuts to clean to that extent. If I'm cleaning it's just best to leave. Because I'll start in one room, not quite finish (maybe the floors) then start in another area. I also sort like crazy & put like items in piles. I know, it drives my husband crazy!
everything in a cabinet or bin MUST be sorted! I don't like mixed items. Nope, just nope.
This is why we were the ones that got sent to organize the shed when we were helping out at that children's home.
Anytime one of my parents goes to a store they always bring me with, and every so often we’ll see an older person in self checkout just being completely oblivious on what to do. Then when a worker tries to help them they are so rude. It happened the other day, this guy was trying to put cash in where the card’s pin goes. And he yelled at the worker there when they told him it was a no cash register.
For me personally, I get a little scared for the other person when they step onto the escalator's yellow lines....doesn't it start separating while your feet are right there at the gap? What if they lose balance and fall?! Falling down the escalator is one of my biggest fears already and I can't--- ahhhhhhhhhh
metal scraping against stuff. like a fork against a glass plate. i'm the only one i know with this problem.
I don’t have OCD, but this sets off my sensory processing issues because I am autistic. It’s so painful!
I don’t know why but when I hear two pieces of paper being rubbed together I cringe and get goosebumps same thing for when two pieces of fleece are being rubbed together
Keeping pets.
Wearing shoes indoors.
Not changing your clothes or showering when you come home.
Not cleaning groceries before putting them away.
Dining out during the pandemic and blindly trusting that cutlery and drinking vessels have been cleaned properly.
Sharing towels.
Sharing toothpaste (the end of the tube may still touch the brush)
Putting your belongings on the floor whilst out.
