I just had a pack of Smarties and for some reason started to sort them, i was just wondering do you sort candies before you eat them or do you just omnom them down?

I'm going to go buy some smarties right now and do this.

SO HAPPY

Sorting is a necessity.

I just eat them in the order they come in.

Yeah, me too. I will often eat about 5 fruit pastilles in one go, though.

look what I found

OM NOM NOM

I do not sort. Although I do meticulously enter the PINs inside the boxes.

Agreed. I LOL'd. Also, I sort in all places except the movie theater, where it's too dark to tell candies apart.

Hell no. I just NOM them down. (Although I almost always eat Skittles instead of Smarties.)

Yeah, I snort smarties all the time!

EDIT: crushed, of course

When I first saw the thread, I thought the titled said "Do you snort?"

Did someone just post a 4chan thread on these forums? Where's the outrage?

I'm quietly furious.

Come on, don't act like it wasn't hilarious and relevant.

Actually you don't need to see the colors to pit M&M's against each other. Just smash them, and when the movie is over a winner will emerge from the darkness.

The rest is not stepping on sidewalk cracks (or always stepping on them, or alternating. It depends on the distance between cracks.), having some weird habits with the microwave/alarm clocks, and washing my hands a lot.

I and every awesome person I know has this behavior -- the alternation of feet to step over cracks, the preference for particular values on microwaves and volume controls... all of it.
Although I'm the only one I know who has to "unwind" himself when he turns >= 360 degrees while showering, e.g. if I turn clockwise to grab the shampoo and then clockwise again to face forward, I feel like a shithead and spin a circle counter-clockwise to undo it.

I am a little OCD about filling in all the squares in my waffles with syrup.

OH MY GOD

I DO THIS

I don't sort, but I leave one of each marshmallow for the last bite of Lucky Charms, one of each colour of sour patch kids to eat at the end, etc. I don't do it all the time but I feel happy when I do so.

I get really happy when I have exact change for a purchase. Does that count?

Wait, so so far I'm the only person in this thread with actual diagnosed OCD, and I'm one of the few that doesn't sort my candy? o_O

You're one of those people on the internet who have all the mental disorders, aren't you? OCD and depression and Christianity? You're sort of mess, dude.
