I was in a fast food place the other day with a friend, and when our drinks came, without hesitating I immediately pushed down all of the type options on the lid. Diet, Pepsi, Fanta, other, etc. They all go down before I start drinking.

She looked at me weirdly. I realised that I will do this whenever I get the chance, without thinking. When I was a kid I thought that the flavour was in the lid, and pushing them down released it (I always wanted maximum flavour). I guess it stuck with me.

I also disassemble burgers at restaurants and rearrange the contents inside to my liking. The lettuce, tomato, onions, and whatever else is on top of the meat needs to be as even as possible, and arranged to my liking before I can even think about taking a bite.

I absolutely can NOT sleep with one leg hanging out of the bed, either. I'm afraid the monster hiding under the bed will grab it.

What odd rules do you live by? What things rule your life in such a way that messing with them even a little bit throws the universe off balance?
