Just a few random ones:

-Whenever I urinate I try to spit into the stream. 3 or more hits is a success. My record is 11.
- I Must have a morning coffee and a book or I-pad with me when I take my morning dump. Also both dogs are always in the bathroom whenever I dump or shower (I guess that's more of a weird thing they do)
- I have lucky spots in my closet for my different jerseys. Spot 1 always goes to my motorcycle jacket, but spot 2 goes to Flames, Stamps, Holland, or my goalie jersey depending on the time of year.
- I talk, caress, and yes, sometimes even kiss my vehicles, wake them up nicely, apologize to them when I make small errors like hitting potholes or missing the ideal line through a corner, and I always thank them when I'm finished driving / riding them for the day / night.
- I talk / argue with myself out loud all the time

For me it's four. I still carry around my 4th gen iPod, even though the jack is loose so it only plays in one ear. That's probably a weird thing I do, driven by another weird thing I do (use a Blackberry as my phone).

Before you get in the shower, or in the shower? I have begun Costanza-ing in the past year or so and it's oddly good. No dribbling, no aiming, just let 'er howl.

Whenever I have a meal with meat, I have a ritual of thanking the animal for giving its life.

It's not like they gave it up willingly.

Sometimes if I am testing out a new brand of food for my dog I will try a kibble as well.

If I'm the passenger in a car, I sometimes wave to the people in the car next to us for no reason.

When I get agitated or become very deep in thought my right index finger starts to tap non stop.

When I am stressed out, my eyelids twitch / flutter. I don't think its noticeable, but the sensation is annoying as hell

I will stack my change by size. Most times just to rearrange and put back in my pocket (less noise when stacked?), or when setting out under guise of putting back in next pants (though usually remove anything lower than a loonie if at home).

The majority of these posts could easily go in the "OCD" thread.

I also do plenty of the meowing at the cat, talking to animals as I walkk/jog by. Occasionally I'll say hello "small/large/handsome dog" to a dog I see in a back yard or something only to get further along and see someone in the yard too. Then I feel stupid. On the rive path "hello mr. goose"

Also I flush the toilet prior to finishing my pee and get satisfaction from timing the last bit of flush with the end of stream. It rarely works out and I have a mental battle as to whether or not I should reflush.

I do the same, expect my beard starts day 1 of classes.

My clothes have specific spots in my closet. After my wife does the laundry I have to rearrange where she hung up my clothes.

There are a tonne of things that I have to do in a particular way, or things have to be set just right. When I'm in a meeting I have to arrange all the papers perfectly and symmetrically in front of me. People don't sit near me because I take up too much space with this process.

When I go play hockey, I don't allow my sticks to touch the ground once I leave the door, until I get to the arena and put my bag down in front of my spot. I also have to have the same spot each time I'm in that dressing room, so I get to the rink ultra early so I can get that same spot. I have a particular spot for each room at each arena in Lethbridge.

No, it's not OCD, it's CDO... OCD isn't in alphabetical order.

When I open a can of pop, I always turn the tab to about a 45 degree angle.

I can always tell which can of pop/beer/whatever is mine because the tab is turned.
