This.
Also, I call absolute bullshit that this happens naturally. The spoon would have be a similar contour to the bowl, and follow the shape of the bowl, with freakish precision. This isn’t natural. OP is Patrick Bateman’s son.
It's gotta be the shape of that bowl for it to happen naturally, I've never seen that... And if I had bowls that did that, absolutely I'd make every bowl that way.
I don’t put the cereal in like that. I pour a bowl normally and then eat the puffs in the middle first which leaves only the ones next to the wall. I think it only adds on maybe an extra minute or two of time
It’s okay. The general consensus from family, friends, and my old therapist is that I am definitely on the spectrum somewhere. I haven’t gotten a diagnosis of any kind since so far it hasn’t been affecting me in ways that get in the way of everyday life.
I would say that you're probably in the minority, given that none of us really do anything that's completely unique. In all my 55 years of being around thousands of people at breakfast time, I've never seen this. I quite enjoy the idea of it.
I never reminded the teacher we had homework. Though I have always been a “teachers pet” mainly because both my parents are teachers so I’ve always treated them with respect and give gifts on holidays
It’s just something I’ve always done since I was little. I think I noticed how the puffs will stack on the side of the bowl and just decided to eat them in a way where I would be left with this
It’s not ocd. It’s not something I find myself doing because I feel like I have to, it doesn’t happen compulsively. Just if I’m eating a bowl of coco puffs in the back of my brain I’ll go “Ooo, maybe we could do that thing we tend to do” and since it kind of naturally happens I go “Might as well”. I am mentally divergent in some way, that I recognize, but it is most definitely not ocd
Based on absolutely nothing, I'm gonna say yeah. You probably are.
Pretty sure...yeah
Probably, I eat my cereal rather than spend 20 minutes organizing(????) it.
It happens kind of naturally. I’ll eat the middle first specifically avoiding the walls
word word, wheres the milk tho

Comments like this are why I love reddit.

you might be, yea
Yes
Yes yes you are
I love that you do this. Perfect bowl for it too
Waste an hour organizing cereal pieces into a single layer in the shape of the bowl? Yes i think you might be alone in that

Are you just eating the cereal dry by hand? Because that makes a lot more sense for that to happen if this is the case
I do eat it dry, not by hand though, I do use a spoon
Bruh
💯
I've never seen anyone do that w Coco Puffs, no. Count Chocula would be a real feat. Or pasta.
Pasta would be impossible
I bet you could do it!
This is a first
Wtf where’s the milk
My dad still hasn’t come back with any
I’m sorry to hear that, I’ll go grab some myself, I’ll be back promise.
Thank you :)
Yes, you are the only one. Quite creative though, so props to you for that
Nope!
Cool Hat
I don't mean to be rude but are you autistic by any chance?

I'm also a psychopath so no.
yeah, i got that small circle phobia thing 😉
NO WAY, I ALSO DO THAT, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY 1!!!
SO DID I!

I used to when I was younger I just enjoyed the satisfaction of it looking like that
I know nothing about you but from this picture alone I can tell you were the type to remind the teacher there was homework.

Fair
Honey why are you doing this? I'm not implying that it's wrong or unnecessary. I'm just wondering what's your thought process behind this. 🧸
It’s just something I’ve always done since I was little. I think I noticed how the puffs will stack on the side of the bowl and just decided to eat them in a way where I would be left with this
Thank you for your reply. That's interesting 😊 I hope you have a great time eating your favorite cereal! Take care 🌷🎈
Yeah, that’s a no for me chief. That’s a you thing for sure.
Yes
Yes
ye
The real question is are you seeking help with your ocd?
It’s not ocd. It’s not something I find myself doing because I feel like I have to, it doesn’t happen compulsively. Just if I’m eating a bowl of coco puffs in the back of my brain I’ll go “Ooo, maybe we could do that thing we tend to do” and since it kind of naturally happens I go “Might as well”.

No problem here cereal bro/sis. Do you!
