OCD?

even if it's not anything, it's nice to know your not alone!

Hi Smokingpoetry

Sorry for the late reply! To echo everyone else above I don't know if it is OCD but I can tell you (as an Anxiety sufferer) that there are a lot of things (like you mentioned) which get on my nerves too.. They don't make me violent or want to explode but I do notice them - sometimes more than others - one of the things which annoys me (and I hesitate to write this in case other people notice it and get annoyed by it too) is that some newsreaders and announcers make a little noise with their lips before speaking.. Arrgh! Sounds silly but once you notice it, it's always there.. a bit like the repetitive 'wet finger on glass' sound in Sting's An Englishman in New York...

So, I think maybe we're all the kind of people for whom some things get on our nerves in a big way.. some days are worse than others and for whatever my opinion's worth, I don't think you do have OCD, you're just sensitive to this issue.

Good luck and good health (and I hope you find some good ear muffs too!)
