Default Help - I'm showing OCD Car tendancies
Help me I'm starting to get really obsessive - I watched myself and was wondering if I am the only one.

When I get into a car all the air vents must be symmetrical. If the center vents are up and one down I have to correct them. When I park my steering wheel has to be straight before I can turn off the engine. If I turn off the ignition and my wipers are not in their rest position I have to turn back on so they complete another sweep. The car must be parallel to the curb when I park.

I guess to a degree we are all obsessives but I really feel for people who have bad OCD it must really take over their lives.

I think I hear a flock of seagulls conspiring to poo on your A3.. Listen carefully; you can hear the voices...
