My wife leaves water on the bathroom counter after washing her hands. Very annoying if I sit my phone or a magazine or something there and it gets wet. I tell her but she forgets. I try to check before I sit anything down there but sometimes I forget. Since she leaves the water I think it's her responsibility.

Seems like it. I find myself going into the bathroom right after them and drying my sink and wiping down my mirrors.

I also tell people not to use the display towels, but the towels designated for hand drying……but they forget and dry their hands using the display towels. Gahhhhhh!!!!

Nothing irritates me more than when people leave water on the mirror (which leaves spots), water on the counter (just wipe up after yourself), and toothpaste stains in the sink (clean it out). And please don't leave the toilet seat up or lid open.

People are so dense. Decorative towels do not equal free usage. For some reason, my friends feel they should wipe their face on mine and they're WHITE (with a grey sparkly bottom). Drives me insane!!

My recent ex was OCD crazy neat and clean. When I opened my cabinets I had flash backs from the movie “Sleeping with the Enemy”. Even he didn’t have show towels before we moved in together. I swear you are the first straight male I have ever encountered that did show towels.

Make it two. My wife and kids are constantly messing it up while I and my mothers (actual mom and MIL) are committed to them. Blows my mind.

I can take it a step further. I like my couch pillows fluffed a certain way and decorative throw pillows aren't for actual use. God forbid any woman actually lay on my extra fluffy white down comforter or dare not remove her shoes the moment she steps into my place.

I just want to see a clean "guest" towel, so I don't have to smell the results of the owners last shower.

I confess that if you tailgate me in heavy traffic, the kind of traffic we’re even if I wanted we couldn’t go anywhere I will make you pay for it dearly further down when things loosen up by not letting you get past me. I will trap your happy ass between me and an 18 wheeler for 10 straight miles before I let you go. Don’t tailgate people in heavy traffic. I can’t imagine anything more dangerous.


PS- please understand I detest left lane hogs and never do it however if you endanger me by your impatience it kind of changes the rules. Sorry. :-)

Make it 3 for show towels. Funny that cmyx6go mentioned Sleeping with the Enemy. I used to reference the same regarding my father and the towels. I can't tell you how many beatings I received as a child for drying my hands with the show towels, or for the towels not being straight.

30 years later....I have show towels and my house is referred to as Cameron's father's home in Ferris Bueller, It's like a museum. It's clean, it's cold and you better not touch anything. Due to a busy work schedule, the gym, the girlfriend and my boys; I have very little time to clean these days, but anytime someone comes to my place they can't stop going on about how clean my house is.

I think I mentioned in the dating thread once about a girl (from a dating app - first meet) who came over and accused me of either being gay or married based solely off my home. I thought women wanted a clean guy.

I do the same thing. I look at it as helping society learn about how to act/drive. I'm karma's little helper!

My reference to sleeping with the enemy was all the cans and dry goods in the cabinet in a perfect row, evenly spaced with labels facing out. The first time I opened his kitchen cabinet it scared me. He said it was because he worked at a supermarket as a kid stocking shelves. Funny, I do the same thing now. Even with water bottles or beverages in the refrigerator. I even do it with the Keurig pod holder. They are all arranged by type/brand and the labels are upright. It's so screwed up.

Same on the fridge and the cans in cabinet. I stocked shelves too. I even use a box cutter to to cut the folds off the tops of boxes for individually wrapped items. Ripped/torn open box tops drive me nuts. Also plastic cups stacked in cabinets all have to be the same color in each stack.

Hadn't ever really thought about it, but I guess this laid the foundation for my current position as the 5S/Lean guy - organization, cleanliness and visual workflow.

I confess I save clothes that are old and won't fit me. They hold no sentimental value, yet they are folded in my drawer.

I'm by no means a hoarder or pak rat but I won't spend a day going through all my clothes and get rid of things.
