Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

MrKitty still sometimes asks why I'm walking funnyI can't step on cracks and there can only be 1 step in each section of paving. Equal steps must be taken on the sunny and shady sections of the pathway- equal in total and equal each foot to the other.
It looks like I'm skipping around like a loony, but once I start I can't stop.
Keep in mind though that I wash my hands at least 50 times a day (whenever I touch something, have eaten or am about to eat) and have a weird shaking my hands in front of me to clean them unconcious gesture that increases in frequency with stress.
So yes, I am OCD, but I am a firm believer that every one has their own OCD, just to different levels.
Should suggest that as a QOTW- What's your OCD?
