I have to keep every item on my desk straight and either perpendicular or parrallel to the others, drives me nuts!!
Other than that - none, although when I was a kid I used to always step on the same number of coloured tiles when I was out shopping with my mum - used to drive her mad as she'd have hold of my hand and i'd be leaping all over the place!!
Oh and I used to devide words up somehow so that they either made equal letters of finished with the centre one - I've forgot how I used to do this and it's just made me think what a strange child I was

erm can i have a straight jacket please???
All my tins have to have labels alligned.
Have to have full boxes of tins. Cant have half boxes on show
I used to have to line up all my toy cars etc in order. now its my lego models in a set order but they are still packed in boxes most of them.
Instead my rubber ducks by the bath are all lined up as are the model planes on my shelfs.

I HAVE to have my handle bar of my WR resting on the EXACT same bit of concrete between the EXACT two bricks on my garage wall. Sometimes i can spend 15 minutes locking everything up, then get inside, and then think its not leant on the wall right, so have to unlock everything again and go and check. 100% of the time its as it 'should be', but i like to check because if its not, it could slip and knock into my other bike, and that could then fall onto my car, causing a spark and igniting a bit of fuel thats dripped out the overflow on the bike while its on its side, engulfing the whole garage in flames writing everything off.
Is that OCD????

Can't have any dust on the interior of my car. Mud on the mats is ok, because you can expect that...but the plastics have to be immaculate and mark free otherwise it does my head in. When I wipe down the dash etc there can't be so much as 1 bit of dust on it...same with the seats. Sometimes go over the same bit about 5 times if a bit of dust lands back on it.

I wouldn't class that as OCD, more just being practical. I always keep my phone in my left trouser pocket and keys and change in my right. That way my phone doesn't get scratched and, being right handed, loose change and keys fall to hand easily.

I did used to have a 'habit' when I was younger, I would always check my shoes every few steps. Probably because I was always standing in dog shit.

theres a guy at work and he is obsessed with recycling. He scours every bin, every office, every skip and sorts all the rubbish out in the correct containers. Then he takes EVERYONES newspapers and plastic drinks cartons home to put out for recycle. He is that obsessed that if he is driving along a road and spots rubbish he stops, picks it up and puts it in his boot while cursing the air blue about how people should recycle. He has also been known to THREATEN VIOLENCE to people if he spots them littering.
I was alright before I read all that 
For me it's how I'm spoken to, I hate people who just blow hot air and exist for small talk absolutely does my nut, but hate being the bloke who's correcting and dictating. Just try and avoid the usual suspects just so I don't come off cocky or condescending, but just like substance over bullshit day to day

Best go check
Alternatively, next time you own a cosworth i'll lean the injector multiplugs away from the HT leads, i remember you going spare in Germany the last time i did that
This is ace.You lot are weirdos and so am I.My missis messes the tins in the cupboards up on purpose because I have to have everything in its right place and labels on show but thats just common sense and in the fridge.Always moving stuff so its level or in its place ie,cushions on sofa,floormats by the front and back door,car mats,washing hands a million times a day, I could sit here all night listing stuff.
you lot are all odd....
i'm a relaxed person and have none of these 'oddities'
only OCD in my house is my housemate, she insists on ironing everything, pants towels, bed sheets, tea towels etc.
works for me though as she does my ironing too
caught her ironing a glove (singular) yesterday, she had borrowed it and didnt want to return it 'scruffy' as she reffered to it.

I do the same thing with the volume on the surround sound and also in the car, it has to be on an even number.
We have coloured mugs and they have to be stacked in the cupboard with matching colours on top of eachother. All my cutlery has to be stacked properly in the drawer, we have 3 different cutlery sets and the forks from each set have to be stacked separately on top of eachother, all the knives have to be facing the right way and the different spoons all have to be stacked in matching sets.
Scott has the thing about notes all facing the right way (all queens heads facing the same way), he also lines up the dining table so the gap inbetween the two chairs lines up with the Sony label on the TV on the wall in the dining room.

I have to close internal doors twice. Regardless of it having been closed in the first place.
I always press the end call button on my phone 3 times.
If I am drinking, I have to drink from the same point on the glass each time I sip.
The hood on my hoodies has to be folded outwards not inwards.
My socks are arranged in my drawer and folded with one another so they are all the same size.
When I press the power button my my remote I press it 3 times for on and 5 times for off.
When I'm engaging in sexual intercourse with a sheep I can't pull out until it baa's 3 times in a row in a pleasurable tone.
But apart from that I'm well normal!

Snap. My wife says i have OCD and usually because i like things being tidy. I cant stand fucking mess! As far as i am concerned its not normal to have a fucking mess everywhere! I dont class that as ocd either! However some of the traits above are DEFFO ocd!
Even in our wedding speech by the minister he mentioned my ocd. However he managed to "miss" my response that it was betetr than her having cjd!!
