Default People that love RC'ing are OCD!!!!

Darn,

I was in my garage for the past two hours just fixing, tweaking, and cleaning my nitro vehicles.

When I was in college, I hated cleaning my cards but now, it's darn near soothing.


I bought a buggy two weeks ago and fried a clutch. I went to the hobby store today and they didn't have the parts. So my car now sits but I'm so excited for the parts to arrive on Monday.

Down time sucks but it's amazing to learn more and more about car as you take stuff apart.

Obsesive Compulsive Disorder................. I guess, if you consider I have probably detailed my rc's more than my 1:1 car Alot of hobbies are inherently OCD like, it's really just the hobbyist.

Really? I would get so pissed at people for doing that, I would seriously break all their fingers. Why can't you just not do it, I don't understand, just DON'T do it!!

I've tried to not do it, and everytime I try I just can't, it's a habbit and I can't get out of it. I keep trying but it just wont work.

I avoid 6 and 13, im superstitious really really bad too, and i used to have a problem when i was younger, like 16 or 17, when people would talk, i'd have to say exactly what they were saying over in my head, it even bugged me....don't know why i did it. But no ocd.

You avoid 6 and 13? Like you are superstitious about those numbers?

That's the nature of the disease guys, the person diagnosed can't control their actions of repeating. That's just the way it goes down, I learned that from Health class.

I do the same thing, I have to step on the lines or I have to not step on them. Or I keep a certain pattern. I hate it.
