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.

Dislocated Spine
As a teenager I had some of the aforementioned habits - lining things up nice and square, books arranged from largest to smallest and so on.

~~ 20 years later ~~

You know how a row of books on a bookshelf will have the writing on the spines running from top to bottom?

This is not the case here in Germany.

As an owner of both English and German books, can I just say: NNNNNGGHHH!!! And if you lie one flat on it's back it gets worse...

It's not always top to bottom in the anglophone world either.

holy shit!
You just made me go and check my bookshelf - it's all true! True, damn you.


And it's the same for French books. I will never stop noticing this now. NEVER!
