I clean my teeth extremely thoroughly and diligently. I clean all the way to the back of my tongue with my toothbrush, and clean my tonsils with a water pick. I never want halitosis.

Also, I clean myself very thoroughly after the loo. I have a bidet shower head attachment. I’m always clean. I don’t understand how people can go camping for days and weeks at a time with no way to clean themselves.

Tin cans, milk bottles, food containers etc. all have to be cleaned properly before I put them in the recycling tubs.
My mom doesn't, and it annoys me. I tell her it will make the tubs stink out and attract vermin. but she still does it.

The way I fill the dishwasher. It infuriates me when someone else just jams tit up in there and put things where they don't belong. Makes me see red, it's definitely overreaction but I often imagine myself taking out that pan and slamming the person straight across the face before putting it back the right way. 🤷‍♀️

a guy at my old job never washed his mug, he’d just pour whatever’s left in it out and make himself a new drink in the same mug. He’d been doing it every day for years, the inside of his mug was pure black 🤢
My coworker does this; nothing gets washed unless the cleaning lady sneaks out of their desk when they aren't around. It's so gross, the worst part is they also leave it like that before they go on a holiday so on more than one occasion I've came across a moldy mug and had to bloody interfere at that point. It's just rank.

Same! Friends I have mentioned it to act like it's weird/gross but I don't know why as it's much more hygienic. I absolutely loved the toilets in Japan - they all had them and were so clean.

Shoes on furniture in my house is a hell no. I find it disgusting and it gives me the absolute fear. I just don't understand why people do it. The soles of shoes are dirty and riddled with all kinds of germs and bacteria, yet some people think nothing of putting them on sofa's and worst of all, dinner tables.

I once watched my ex's father place his dirty shoes on the kitchen counter on top of one of those little white plastic chopping boards. He the proceeded to scrape bits of dried in mud off them using a knife, then placed the knife in the sink and brushed the mud off the board. I was looking on in absolute disgust and horror the whole time and made a point there and then to never eat in their house again.

It's so much cleaner. You feel so clean afterwards. Ah I like the Finnish style of bidet shower

That's disgusting 🤢 Shoes are entirely banned inside our house. Our carpet is 18 years old and looks almost as good as new because it's been kept so clean.

I'm also an even numbers person. The tv has to be on 20 or 25. Certain channels are never as loud so have to be on 30. My husband drives me crazy when instead of muting it he turns it down to about 6 or 7 :rolleyes:

Just cold food in general. I even give the jam a 10 second ping in the microwave before I put it on my toast.

My volume control has to be 7, 8 or 9 or add up to one of those numbers (16, 53, 18, etc.).

When loading the dishwasher, everything must be stacked neatly by size and colour.

The towels, which are stored on a ladder in the bathroom, have to have their hems neatly lining up.

I don't like surprises or anything unexpected popping up in my schedule.

When I empty the tumble-drier I have to fold the clothes straight away. I can’t deal with it sitting in a pile waiting to be folded.
