Abstract

The article presents three short, humorous anecdotes about compulsives. The first is about a person named Doris who always goes to the kitchen and checks if all the gas jets are off, whenever she leaves her house. The second is about a stockbroker named Randolph who is inclined of saying "If I were you" to a person he is talking with. The third is about a man named Royal who always keeps his working equipment, like papers and pencils, in perfect alignment with each other.
