I saw this one last night. Really really disturbing. The guy obviously wasn't all there upstairs... he would be asked a question about something and his eyes would glaze over when it challenged his belief system.

The "professional organizers" and psychologists that specialize in hoarding are incredibly patient. Obviously they understand the mental side of the disorder, but still, it would take one round of the person refusing to throw away a magazine covered in cat s*** because he could clean it and sell it for me to lose my top and burn the place down.
