...uses his/her mousepad oriented vertically rather than horizontally?

...gets weirded out by using pens without the counterbalance of a cap on the back end?

...feels the need to put the volume on a number divisible by five?

Add yours!

....pretends their left foot has a laser attached to it, and tries to make sure that you don't cut drivers going the opposite direction in half?

....tries to make patterns with the tiles you step on while walking on tiled floors?

GOOMH. Though not necessarily 5's. There are "good" numbers and "bad" ones. The volume doesn't get set to 73, for instance, but 72 is fine.

I try to match my pace with the seams between sections of tile in the halls at work, if that counts.

Yeah...13's OK. My theater sound bar has such variances between units that I've taken to pointedly averting my gaze from the display so I go on sound alone and not numerical register.

Skee, I always put my stereo at 42 as an ode to you. Have I been living a lie?

...has to do everything symmetrically / in even numbers? (Accidentally bumped knee on desk? Have to bump other one now.)

42's a "good" number, so that's OK.

As an audiophile, being limited to numbers of five would drive me batty. Especially in my car where I have to constantly adjust for each song because of reflective surfaces and resonance frequency.

...when in a banana chair and on carpet (not bare floor) I will rock over my fingers.

... in one of those cheap plastic stackable chairs with skinny metal legs, I will wrap my legs around the front legs if the chair and put all my weight on the tips off my toes (with shoes on).

Both of the above is a slightly uncomfortable type of a pain, but a weirdly soothing kind if pain.

... If a picture of a naked woman doesn't have a cute face, the rest barely does anything for me and I move on.

Not usually, but when the space available doesn't allow horizontal, I do it.

I wouldn't say weirded out precisely, but I always put the cap there if there is one and I hate having capped pens that are missing caps.

Not really.. but then I also notice a lot of volumes these days are just a "more" or "less" fillable bar with no number.

from me:

....Cannot stand having anything saved to desktop?

....Never puts just one ice cube in a drink?

....ensures all the charcoal briquettes are touching each other and feels a sense of loss if one is trapped in some unreachable part of the lighted grill?

Yes, yes you did. And Farsky commented on it too:

Craziness. Have we discussed everything there is to discuss already? Are there no new topics? Uh-oh! Is this the beginning of a really bad science-fiction movie?? :?
