To re-present CP's data in a more useful way:

Yup, that's me, borderline deviant.

Me too and proud of it. ;)

Can one be deviant if the majority agrees?

I agree 100%.


My son on the other hand prefers them in the 1-4 range when he eats them.

Yes.

There were about 5 bananas in our office break room (we get fresh fruit delivered) at perfect ripeness (7) that someone* threw away. Grrrr.

*I know who did it, but I'll stick to the generic "someone." This "someone" loves to throw stuff away. OCD is just the tip of this "someone's" iceberg of insanity.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to overcoming a problem, and I am glad to see you are at least part way to admitting to your problem PB. Now if we can just get you to stop referring to yourself in the third person.

I concur that I definitely have OCD tendancies (everyone in this office does, it's sort of why we all work here and do what we do). But my iceberg of insanity leans more towards being a pack rat.

So I would never, ever, throw away perfectly perfect bananas.
