what are some of everyones obsessions.

mine are harry potter ( though now that ive read the 7th book that obsession has eased up a little)
yo-yos (thhough that has eased up a little since i lost my yo-yo)
genetics
red hair
and just recently twins

My current obsessions are-
(in no particular order)
Soduko, AS, Paradoxes, Jogging,
and setting up systems at work

Writing
Reading
Jason Bourne
Kicking serious NT ass
Jazz music

England, London, the late 70s and everything in between.

Cats (Siamese and tabbies are my favorites)
Roger Bannister
Autism, AS
Various medical conditions, especially those related to various ethnic groups
The Olympic Games

My obsessions are:
Abnormal psychology
Airplanes
Reading
Autism
Current events
Schizophrenia

- Scientific skepticism and paranormal claims. I'm on the hardcore skeptic side.
- US politics. This would make more sense were I an American.
- Autism
- Several specific historical periods/places/figures.

since all my obsessions are more or less related to OCD, this may be out of place, but:
having a mental disorder/not being neurotypical
forums and fantasy sports (constantly checking for updates)
what others think of me
feeling ugly, fat, and unclean (none of which are true at all)
people spying on me

At the moment it's Blur and Star Trek thats it can't think of any others and I wouldn't really say they are obsessions.

I like astronomy, or at least the physics theory stuff

Im fixated on the economy since I took microeconomics in collage a few years back, and have a detailed fiscal plan, and a ton of papers and data relating to fiscal plans for the future and preperations, i spend much time on this, much more then the average person come payday, it really takes a small chunk outa my fridays. I have even my own plan in the event i get hurt at work, get fired or retire, im prepaired for a number of things, too a degree.

I love WW2 and have a small collection of old magazines, knives, ensignia, parts of uniforms and even a helmet and small trumpet from that time period, wrote a history thesis on d-day years back while in collage.

I love satalite photoes of places i want to go and mostly places ive been, i use ARC-GIS and GPS to deliniate and plot points.

Some other wars such as gulf war in 1990 and the international incident between Britan and Argentina in 1982, this fixation is because of the military channel, i lo0ve battlefronts!

The fact i have after almost 25 years finally came to terms with my DX.

wanting to someday in the next decade start a family, and be prepaired to support them, provide for them.

Music.

ps1/ps2/psp rpgs, earthbound (snes), anime, independent wrestling, music [black/death metal], traveling via train, myspace

Benny & Joon
Spokane
Diapers

Fluorescent lights

1.) Real Estate (houses and businesses for sale)
2.) Ebay
3.) Physical & Mental Conditions
4.) Medical & Science related stuff
5.) I obsessively observe people too much. I'd rather sit and observe their behavior and try to figure them out than to talk to them. I'd also rather use sign language to communicate with people than talking to them. (I only know the alphabet in sign and a few regular signs... I'm just saying I'd LIKE to, not that I do)
6.) Diagnosing conditions/diseases/ in myself and in other people
7.) Looking up current obsessions or random information on the internet
8.) Craigslist
9.) Wrongplanet.net
10.) Germs
11.) I worry/obsess constantly about people doing bad things to other people : (
12.) I obsess about obsessing.


for a few days last week I obsessed about Sinead O' Connor.

Ripper Roo (character from the Crash Bandicoot series)
Dakota and Elle Fanning films
Charlie and Lola series
Upscale Houses (Thank goodness I live in one!)
Lilo and Stitch (just the original movie)

And other random stuff that comes and goes.
