Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I got a 2.

I answered "yes" to worrying about flooding, fire, etc. to the house, which sometimes runs through my mind in a "what if I came back to.." way when I'm gone for multiple days. And then answered "yes" to repeatedly checking lights, etc., which I always do before I leave the house for more than a day, but I chalk that up more to the early onset of Alzheimer's than to OCD. :)

I don't consider worry and concern as synonyms.

But other than that  SQUIRREL!!!......
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

10. Have you worried about acting on an unwanted and senseless urge or impulse, such as physically harming a loved one, pushing a stranger in front of a bus, steering your car into oncoming traffic; inappropriate sexual contact; or poisoning dinner guests?


"Worry" about it?  :rofl:

Heck!  I'm not that concerned about getting caught.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

i will double check a locked door or make sure a fire is out but its more of a paranoid insurance

i sometimes space out on the first lock up and i can convince myself that i forgot

the second backcheck writes the status firmly in the done column

I took this twice. Answers as I would have answered it 10 years ago got me a 16. Answers as I am now got me a 5.  I'd call that progress.  =)

No, but seriously, I'm not that OCD. Jeez, I even answered no on the pushing people out into traffic, cause, really, not worried about it.  >:D

I have checked several times, and am now reasonably certain I do not suffer from OCD.

Better check again, just to be sure...

if i don't worry about it, is it OK?

Oh come on. Dinner guest is one thing but...

Havn't you ever been standing at an intersection, waiting for the walklight and there's, oh, I don't know, maybe it's an obnoxious dude in a suit, talking loudly on a cell phone, oblivious and certain he is the center of the universe, or some dumb soriety chick with her ass hanging out of her booty shorts and jaywalking so the car coming down the road has to squeel brakes right in your ear.

Just a little push? *sigh*
