My friend says if you're REALLY OCD, you'd have to refer to it as "CDO" so that the letters are in alphabetical order.

Chris, The Perfect is the enemy of The Good. Trust me on this.

That's normal, right?

No, no, no! Not if the letters have to be arranged by shape.
"OCD" is closed, open, closed. CDO just can't work in this situation. It can only be one way, It has to be this way!.....14, 15, 16, 17....

I was looking at OCD vs. CDO, and I too agree the balance is all off with the later.

I don't step on cracks in the sidewalk, but for me it has become almost instinctual--still my friends watch my feet in amazement.

Nailed it, Dean! If everyone else would take psych meds, they wouldn't aggravate so much that I have to.
