This is a question Bizarre habits

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "Until I pointed it out, my other half use to hang out the washing making sure that both pegs were the same colour. Now she goes out of her way to make sure they never match." Tell us about bizarre rituals, habits and OCD-like behaviour.

Soup spoons
are the work of the devil himself. Tablespoons are only to be used for stirring cake mix/other baking-related things, and can be used for dishing out, but never for eating with. Yoghurt must be eaten with teaspoons, no matter how big the pot, unless it's a bowl of greek yoghurt with honey, which may be eaten with a dessert spoon. Dessert spoons must be used for all else.

There's also two different sorts of cutlery in the cutlery drawer - one fancier and slightly bigger than the other. The smaller, smooth cutlery must be used at all times - only during cooking is it acceptable to use the other set, and only the starter knives and forks can be used. The dinner knives and forks are too big for a little person such as myself, and have to sit there unused (except when cutting blocks of butter). Also, when setting the table if we're having people over, all cutlery must be of the same sort, and be on the placemat, not on the outsides.

Computer folders must be organised properly too, music tagged correctly, bookmarks sorted, minimal things on the desktop etc.

I also narrate my driving - all the things I need to watch out for, even just a running commentary on how my speed is doing, when I need to turn, etc, but I never need to do this when I'm with my instructor for some reason.

I think my house would give you fits
Not only do I collect spoons, but I use them for almost any food item that doesn't directly require a fork. Soup spoons are my favourite.
