This is a question Bizarre habits

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "Until I pointed it out, my other half use to hang out the washing making sure that both pegs were the same colour. Now she goes out of her way to make sure they never match." Tell us about bizarre rituals, habits and OCD-like behaviour.

I guess if I have any trace it manifests in playing computer games
on games like Civilization I like to pointlessly keep playing after winning to totally annihilate the opposition. though this is probably a combination of garden-variety megalomania and a perverted dopamine reward system, rather than OCD
apart from this, I have the kind of slovenly disordered approach to life that would drive OCD sufferers even more nuts

I do this
I also try to make sure that I'm on a seperate continent from everyone as I like bombarding cities with a shiny big fleet of battleships.

Do you always nuke Ghandi too?

Arnie of the Terminators
My greatest game of Civ ever lasted a whole 27 hours after I conquered the world, and Arnie, that greta god of the Mongols, proceede to seed the entire world with as many citeis as possible. I kept one last enemy city, which I pointedly refused to wipe out (though I did rather cruelly build a city in each of the ajoining 8 squares just so they wouldn't get uppity) eventually when it was decided enough was enough, and there really wasn't any other terrain worth a cat pissing on, the game was duly ended, and my Amiga had a thousand fits trying to calculate the score..... and crashed. Reboot, reload, end game crash. Reboot, reload, end game crash. Reboot, reload, end game crash. and so on.
It took until about the 15th attempt until it finally managed without burning out (the evil little bastrad realsied it was out classed by a master OCD obsessive you see and gave up).
Best score ever, and despite well over half of the game basically being played without any enemy on the map at all, I still despise any such game as Sim City as without an opposition there is no point.

I wish I had this much time to waste now.
