I'm so anal, I ...

On the MaccyD thread Darthed posted a Haiku.
I hated my self but i had to count the syllables.
It's since I've been working in retail for a year, I find it hard to walk through another store and not correct their displays.
I think I'm turning into Sheldon Cooper.

^^ That's a rubbish haiku  :P 

I tidy up shelves in shops though. 18 years since I worked in retail but you can't unsee it once you get in the habit

I straighten pictures. A hairdressers I passed twice a day on the way to work had a wonky one that was driving me nuts for weeks. I just had to go in, apologise, straighten the bugger and walk swiftly out!

Displays, shelves..yeah. I get it

Same, if I take a product from the self, I automatically pull the ones behind forward..

Regarding haiku.

Haiku plural is haiku.

How convenient.

Little known that these were the original lyrics until the record company persuaded Hank Williams to change it to Lonesome.

What's the bloody point of Haikus ?

A collection of words that don't rhyme or have any meaningful rhythmic cadence.

Just confirmity with a format.

Load of old twat if you ask me

God effort, just a few too many syllables, you’ll get there

Old McDonald's had
No nosh, E-I-E-I-O.
Serves the buggers right.

....get annoyed that the letters in OCD aren't in alphabetical order.

I was in Waitrose buying some fresh bread and rolls yesterday and previous customers had left the tongs lying in the product trays rather than replacing them into the tong holders. So obviously I just had to put all the tongs back in their rightful slots before I could move on.

Dude.  I can’t walk past anything that’s crooked or off without fixing it.  Rugs are the worst.  It’s like nobody else even cares.

I also have this thing whenever I’m the passenger in a car where I create a rhythm in my head and I tap my back teeth together every time a sign or post “hits” the back edge of my window.  The teeth tap is either the kick or snare.  I’ve been doing this since I was a youngster, daydreaming to these signs/mph driven rhythms.

Also, I’ve never not counted syllables of a haiku.  But I’ve also hated myself for a long time.

Indeed, poetry eh, and what did Yeats know about fairies anyway.
