The thing that men do that is completely normal to most people, but gives you the ick?
Mine is men wearing long socks with shorts. I'm sorry I just can't
AIBU?
To ask for your most minor, irrational ick?

People claiming to be "a bit OCD" about something.
No.... there's no "a bit OCD".
Obsessive compulsive disorder is a genuine recognised and diagnosed condition that can be completely debilitating to the people who suffer with it.
There isn't a month that goes by where I don't hear someone say they are a bit OCD about this or that. No. You like it done that way and have a preference. But if its not done that way... nothing happens to you. You might wrinkle your nose a bit and that's it.
If it were any other mental health condition you were claiming to have and essentially mocking or belittling then in this day and age you would be put in your place, but for some reason people are OK with saying it about OCD.

Men with small hands. Neck hair below the hair line. Shaved pubes or shaved any body part except head if fairly bald - that's acceptable. Smoking. Small appetites.
