About This Quote
When someone asks you if you arrange your books alphabetically, it can be interpreted in two ways. It could be that they are checking to see if you are a nerd or an idiot. However, it could also be that they are asking if you have OCD. The latter interpretation makes more sense since OCD is commonly associated with an inability to leave things alone.
