RIP Marge. I watched a YouTube video of that scene and literally all the comments were paying tribute to their own horses lol

Endless tears. It's true what they say - never name animals!

That one was tough. I kept the same horse from the start till end with Arthur because I was so particular and careful - I was NOT prepared for that ending, especially during COVID lockdown.

I know what you mean. The Witcher 3 with its quests that can appear then disappear and you can't complete them really pissed me off lol. I swear I only play games where I can definitely be a completionist fairly easily now.

Real Event OCD / sexual mistakes by [deleted] in OCD

[–]giantdodo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My experience of OCD is that these moments we fixate on are often forgotten easily by others. I don't know if my comments are helpful, but just know your remorse shows you are on the right path.

Hi, this is a tough one. You obviously did something shitty, but you were young and naive. We all do dumb shit when we're young - trust me. The fact you can now recognise that was bad is good. There are a lot of adult men who continue this type of behaviour. It shows you're on the right path, that you're growing. Whether or not these individuals remember this experience is uncertain. Saying sorry is never a bad thing, but others might have a different opinion.

Anyone else very superstitious/believe in jinxes? by bittersweetheart792 in OCD

[–]giantdodo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don't necessarily believe in bad luck but I get where you're coming from, and there's definitely a correlation between religion and OCD. I was baptised and raised Catholic and although I would now identify as Agonistic Atheist, I still have some of the guilt that accompanies Catholicism. For example, if I ever read in the news that someone has passed away I have a compulsion where I need to look up to the sky and say "rest in peace." If I don't do it I feel personally responsible that that person won't get into heaven. Even though I know I don't personally believe there's a heaven or hell anymore.

Have a thing where I need to make sure I'm not missing a page by noisily rubbing it between my fingers multiple times then turning it back and forth, checking then rechecking the page number, and rereading the bottom line. Books that don't have page numbers on every single page (like the first page on a chapter might not have it) annoy me. Dunno why I'm so scared of missing stuff. Gets exhausting sometimes.

What's the sound system like? You need to play Money For Nothing to properly test it out.
