Are there any organizing things your spouse/roommate does that drives you nuts?

Mine is hangers. I love how organized my wife is, it keeps our home in order and makes things easy to find and locate.
But hangers… She insists on having exactly the amount of hangers that we need for our clothes and keeping hangers where they are so shirts can get put away in order, extra hangers get stored away. This means that when it’s time to hang up clothes you have to rifle through and find the “correct” hanger and it drives me nuts. I like having 4-5 extra hangers on the end of the line, and when you pull a shirt off a hanger that empty hanger goes to the front, that way you aren’t always searching for hangers…
Apparently that’s doesn’t look good and is unacceptable.

This is some OCD shite right here. Both of you.
I didn’t down vote you though.

That would drive me nuts.
Mine thinks that everything has to have a compartment or bin…. Or pull stuff out of the box it came in and put it into a box we now have to wash later

My wife won't put my books in the proper order. I like it separated between fiction/nonfiction and the nonfiction in historical order. She puts the books on the shelves based on what looks good next to each other

My hubby keeps his toothbrush in a cup on the bathroom sink.
Mine has a cover and goes in the drawer.
I think his way is gross.

Yeah, that's why it eeks me out. I try to have a rule to close the lid before flushing, but I have no idea if either of my heathens do so.
I'm contemplating a trip out to get me some Jesus chikkin. If I go soon, I can hit the likker store too! Win/win... I am still in my pajama pants though.
wyd?

Our house has a his and hers set of sinks. Her sink has about 4x the available counter space and cabinet as mine and yet my sink has 10x the actual clear usable space because she leaves every skin care, makeup, pill bottle and Lord knows what else out on the counter.

I organize digital stuff. Women are better at organizing physical stuff, so I generally adapt to their system. But, I do take a lot of decision making out of it. I have a couple of hangers for suit coats, and couple of pants hangers, and then *every* other hanger is a flocked thin hanger from Amazon Basics. I removed all variability (plastic hanger, wire hanger, coated wire hanger, etc.) from the equation. Ex-wife did like to pack me for work trips, so I used one color of Amazon Basics hanger for stuff I wanted in travel suitcases vs. ones I didn't (looser clothing for long workdays, vs a shirt I'm going to wear on date night, etc.)

Your wife belongs in a gulag.

Loading the dishwasher I'm sure everyone has a way they try and do it. Only thing my better half will do is put sharp knives in the holder with the point up. Got me 1 time.

My description would ping the DSM-5, and people would come to my house.

Sorry for the delayed response...my hands were dirty and I was on a mission.
You should definitely go get that new jalapeno chicken sammie and some liquor. I like liquor.

That’s part of the reason we’re still together.

Sounds like u had a feast!
I tried the new jalapeño sammy on Monday… I didn’t care for it much. I didn’t have bacon on it, maybe that made the difference.

Stores cups and glasses right side up.
All of her clothes are inside out when I decide to do her a solid and throw a load of laundry in.
Leaves the car charging cord coiled up under the garage door so it won't close properly.
Flosses her teeth in the car.
Other than those things, we cool.
