How many of the following do you identify with, strangers?
Is preoccupied with details, rules, lists, order, organization, or schedules to the extent that the major point of the activity is lost.
Shows perfectionism that interferes with task completion (e.g., is unable to complete a project because his or her own overly strict standards are not met).
Is excessively devoted to work and productivity to the exclusion of leisure activities and friendships (not accounted for by obvious economic necessity).
Is overconscientious, scrupulous, and inflexible about matters of morality, ethics, or values (not accounted for by cultural or religious identification).
Is unable to discard worn-out or worthless objects even when they have no sentimental value.
Is reluctant to delegate tasks or to work with others unless they submit to exactly his or her way of doing things.
Adopts a miserly spending style toward both self and others; money is viewed as something to be hoarded for future catastrophes.
Shows rigidity and stubbornness.
For me it’s the 1st, 6th, 7th and 8th
Now that I’ve recognised these personality traits, and being young, I can consciously overide them. Yay!
For those who are preoccupied with lists that can actually be read and hold to the overly strict standard that preformatted text shouldn’t be used where bulleted lists are intended, here’s that list again in more readable form:

And for those who overconscientiously think that one should cite one’s sources, I’ll add that these are the DSM-5 criteria for OCD, and that having four of them is supposed to indicate OCD.

I identify with hating having to scroll sideways to read something.
