You got me, Godot. I have no freakin' idea what you're talkin' about.  :lmao: You made a reference to Don't Ask Don't Tell (DADT) and whether CC has its own version of that. I don't know that that has anything to do with electrical durrent [sic].

Or was I shocked and not know it?  :huh?:

 :whistling:

I think that's a reference to "AC-DC", meaning someone is bi-sexual?? :clueless:

Yes, that was it, although I meant "Don't Ask Don't Tell What Electrical Currnet Iassa Uses"--bringing in DADT on the other meaning of AC/DC (bisexual), but applying it to the electricity.

And now that I've beaten that thoroughly into the ground...




I got nuthin'.

Never watched the show, but people at work refer to him as extremely OCD.  We aren't that bad.   :-)

Y'all are really weird with your light switches and pencil line-ups.  ::)

I am not nearly as neurotic as any of you....I only have my closet, drawers, armoire and kitchen pickiness.

My shirts are organized by sleeve length, everything is color-ranged from white to black, like a prism. Shoes too. This is merely done to make it easy to go to the item I am looking for. Nothing OCD about it.

Kitchen cabinets must be done by item/use/size/color and pantry done by food groups. Again it's a time saver.

I am not OCD.

Would you tell this to the two men in my house, please?

I keep telling them it would make their lives so much easier if they would just follow this phrase.....
