    Okay… but while you were typing all of this, you could have been cleaning. The motto stands.

          I… assume you are joking, but having grown up with a mother who had legitimate OCD, and would clean and clean and clean and clean in very particular ways, far beyond what was necesarry, and would freak out when any minor spec was anywhere…

          I do not find this funny.

            I sympathize and it obviously rubbed off on me. My dad called my mother “the white tornado”. Legend has it if you stood still long enough, you’d get dusted.
