Weird habits or superstitions etc.

Well I subjected to an evening of embarrassment as we cleaned out all of my kitchen cupboards, pantry and freezer last night.

I've been told several times that I have a problem but have always laughed it off and told her that she's delusional, we agreed that anything that didn't have a matching lid had to go, I reckon we had around 80 plastic containers, 25 yoplait 1 litre tubs with lids, 12 2 litre flavoured ice cream containers and more than 20 empty dolmio-like jars floating about.
It was of her opinion that this was a little excessive and cut it back to 20, 3, 3 & 3. The cupboards look great now I must say.

We're sorting my bedroom tonight or tomorrow evening, could be interesting, does anybody want any porn dvd's?

How you know you love a girl ^

I can't throw my old t-shirts out. Hence I have about 350, at last count.

When getting dressed for footy, I dressed in order of jocks > shorts > strapping > socks > boots > guernsey (minutes before the game).
I also liked to be just behind the captain as he went on the field. I don't seem to have anything like that I can think of for cricket.

My CDs are all in alphabetical order. While my vinyl is in an entirely different system based upon the type of music (although I have one shelf dedicated to albums from the 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die book).

At Centrals, Collingwood, Reds games I always wear my scarf and I never wash them.

350, that's crazy, I'm pretty bad as I always say "That can be a gardening or painting shirt, I'm shocking with shoes too, I think to myself "These will come in handy if I go crabbing" I haven't been crabbing for 25 years.

My dvd stacks are alphabetically ordered.

Offloading porn? LOL

Lots of cricket superstition, infact a ridiculous amount.

Left glove on first and left pad on first.

Same underwear from the week before if i have done well

Must have zinc cream on bottom lip when batting despite wearing a helmet.

Must have chalk at the pitch for hard wicket.

In between each ball i face i unstrap and restrap left glove (story behind this is that i was batting in a semi on around 30 odd and my glove broke, i didnt have a spare pair and didnt want to borrow someone elses. So instead each ball i had to restrap the glove, in the end i went on to hit 132, we wont the game and we wont the flag the next weekend. I now have a new pair of gloves but every ball i still go through that routine, this is 10 years later)

My last superstition is in a GF 4-5 years ago my dad was supposedly on his death bed, he managed to get out to watch me bat for what all doctors said would be the last time he would see me play cricket. Anyway the team got bowled out for 84, i made 40 not out opening the bat. As the bowler started his run up all i could think was that i didnt want it to be the last ball my dad ever saw me bat so i would mumour the words 'for dad' as the bowler ran in. Anyway we ended up bowling the opposition out for 40 and had to bat again which i batted another 30 overs for 20 odd not out and we won. My dad is still alive to this day but i still cant help say the words between each ball.

Im tired just thinking about them all lol.

I have so many band and gig shirts, it's a bit ludicrous. Plus a heap of sport tees.
They've all got memories that come to mind when I wear them.
I've got some I was wearing when I was 15. I had a pub crawl tee on the other day from my first year at uni.

My Magpies scarfe has never been washed, my late Aunt knitted it for me when I was born. Fair to say there's some memories attached to that particular knitted item. I found Mrs Boon had it in the laundry hamper one day, probably 15 years ago, I salvaged it and she knows better now.

I have to wear my guernsey when Port plays. Home or away.

My ex's brother as a kid used to have to tap his forehead on the bottom of the door step (the metal strip) as he got in the car every time, apparently he used to headbutt everything or run into things as a kid.

I had friends who's staffy used to spend every day licking the galvanised iron fence, some part of their backyard the fence was shiny as.

[The Ash Man]

I have to have volume on even number as a few have mentioned

Everything in my fridge/pantry has to be faced up (labels towards the front) probably from due to my supermarket days as a youngster

In my footy days I had to be the last to put the guernsey on and have a ball in my hands* as we ran out

When receiving* in tennis always spun the racquet 3 times to the right and once to the left (no idea why just had to)

When eating all cutlery has to be perfectly spaced and square to the point where I close one eye to make sure ( my Pop used to do this too)

Being a bit of a maths geek, when watching footy I will look at 2 players guernseys numbers and add/multiply/divide them

Sh*t, I do some weird stuff!

Same, my scarf i bought the week of the 2000 GF through losing my scarf at the second semi final has never been washed and is in all sorts of mess after 12 straight GF's

I've had mine since I was seven or eight. Went to a SA v WA SOO game at Footy Park with the school. It was about 11 by the time we got home and I found the scarf on the footpath outside Munno Para PS. Took it back the next day so I could find the owner. I never did, so it's mine now.
And, yes, it's dirty - literally blood, sweat and tears on it. Plus lots of beer and the odd bit of debris from confetti and flares.

Mrs Boon tells me I've got O.C.D, I think that's what she said anyway, I don't really listen.

Jars on the top shelf in the fridge, not on any other shelf. Cold meat, containers etc on the next shelf, not on any other.

I always mow my front and back lawns in the same manner. Whipper snipper one of the front lawns ( it's divided by a path ) clockwise, then mow starting nearest house to away. The other patch anti-clockwise, then mow from nearest to fence back to house. It just helps with the way the clippings go.

If forks, knives or spoons are in the wrong compartment of the utensil tray it boils my piss in an instant.

I also have a saying for paper work on my desk, the paper in/out trays, keyboard etc - If it isn't a right angle, it's a wrong angle.

Oh dear, she might just be right.

I say this phrase quite often!

Toilet roll to be pulled down from behind, NOT over the top

Easily the weirdest thing in this thread. Who the fk puts a toilet roll on that way.

Next you will tell us you scrunch too

Scrunching is better than folding, as your digits are further away from your date.

Me too. I've had my North scarf for about 27 years and it's been nowhere near a washing machine.

Geez some of you are weird!

Only thing I can think of is I always take off my golf glove to putt, but thats more of a comfort thing than a superstition etc

Think you'll find 99% of golfers do this!

Volume numbers and alarm clocks must end with a 1. Strangely this does not apply to air conditioning controls.

Same here, had my Dogs scarf since about 1983 and it's never seen a wash.

None for me but the missus gets upset if I put the air con on in the car if it's a point five degree temp. I don't get superstitions, but I don't get too upset with my missus as she's a pom, poms are weird.
