I have the biggest urge to poke them....
Me too! Me too! Maybe also do a little bit of finger-tasting. ^_-
IKR!
For someone who is OCD like me, this is perfect. The only thing wrong with it is when they put berrys on it. It makes it look broken up.
i agree actually, I have OCD too and these are so satisfying
yeah, i also have no idea if i have ocd or not
Ocd is not neccessarily and not always about perfectionism and tidyness. It is, however, the typical misconception. I'm no doctor, so I can't really point you which symptoms may occur, but just a little advice not to jump to rushed conclusions before consulting an actual professional.
Reminds me of the Russian Faberge eggs.
