What are your weirdest building habits?

So I'm interested to see if anybody is brave enough to divulge their weirdest building habits/rituals to the community. I was building the Fire Brigade this morning when I got to thinking about this. For me, I make sure all of the brick studs with the tiny word "LEGO" molded onto it are facing the same way. I absolutely hate when the words are all jumbled together! So all bricks that go East/West I aim to the right, and North/South bricks I aim to the top of the base plates. 

 

Another weird habit of mine is that I spend an estimated 2-3 extra hours on any given set making sure all 1x1 tiles, studs, and bricks are perfectly lined up with the bricks below and above them. I ALSO HATE SEAMS IN MY BUILDS!

 

So, what are the weird things that all of you do?

I hate to move minifigures joints when I build and I wash my hands every 10 minutes or so. I once searched 30 minutes for a tan 1x6 plate(turned out LEGO switched it for a white 1x6 plate).
