Awesome.
This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff

Profiteering
Today, my mom admitted that she always makes me put away the dishes because my obsessive compulsive tendencies force me to arrange the glasses and silverware by size, just the way she likes them. FML

Yeah, I don't see why other people do this.

True, but only if it's not very taxing on OP. If it annoys her to be unable to resist something her mom should be a bit more considerate.

Thanks, Dr. Phil.

40 - Janitor, Maid, Slave, Housekeeper. Looks like we already get a few jobs for this. Looks like the unemployed OCD kids of America are to stay unemployed for now.

Actually, I was thinking the same thing. Where's the problem?

She specifically does this because of the OCD... She's using her child's mental disability for her benefit

I agree, I mean you're going to have to do chores anyway so why not do the ones you're good at?

What's the problem? You think your mental condition was exploited? Your mum was just using your condition to her advantage.

Good way to try to overcome your OCB :D Wouldn't say YDI, but thumbs up for your mom.

I think you mean OCD :)

No, there's OCB which is Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior which is mild form of OCD, the Disorder. I have CDO -- it's the same as OCD, except in proper alphabetical order like it needs to be.

Doctors will tell you anything as long as you keep buying the drugs for it...

Or you could have faith in humanity for at least a moment and believe that not every person trying to make a living is a money-grubbing fucknut.

Or… not. It's more fun that way.

#38 I used to have faith in humanity, but then their behavior would confuse and upset me. Now that I look at everyone as a money-grubbing fucknut, I can often successfully predict what people will do.

Well, I guess that's how you live your life.

What's wrong? It's Good to keep the house neat and tidy. And it's just the dishes. If you always keep it neat and order, there wouldn't be much work everytime u do it.
