According to this I am chaotic neutral, not sure what that means? I aim to balance the weight evenly, when pulling out of the fridge, the carton stays level.
I use Lawful Good for the same reason. Both keep the center of weight in the middle, but your method is more evenly distributed.
I'm chaotic good. Balanced haphazardly and without order.
There is always a relevant xkcd.
Chaotic good here.
Yep, I'm an Autist.
... Also had a mom with pretty severe OCD, so I always remember that 'good enough is good enough', in scenarios like this.
EDIT:
... Also also, I find the lawful evil solution to be utterly diabolical and actually makes me angry just being exposed to it conceptually... which I guess does make sense, opposite sections of the chart.
Did your mom also have a neverending project of slowly removing the old layers of lead paint from the inside of the house by scraping it off a little at a time with a razor blade?
... No?
She had different kinds of cleaning routines/phobias/rituals.
I disagree with most of those. Lawful neutral is evil for example, as it imbalances the carton away from the hinge.
Knowing Randall, I wouldn't be surprised if he actually got his own DnD group, or conducted some sort of poll, where he actually asked people already in certain alignment categories to describe their own egg carton balancing patterns... or lack thereof.
That would come closer to the actual alignments self representing...
But also I have no idea, this is just my head canon now rofl.
My wife insists on true neutral and I can't think of a worse way of doing it. I try to counterbalance with lawful good whenever I have eggs, bit I'm always playing catch up...
Per this example I'm lawful good
it's just sensible. if you take from one end, you run the risk of unexpectedly grabbing the 'light end' and accidentally dropping the partial carton on the floor next time you take it out of the fridge.
Oh my god. This is beautiful.
Thank you, fellow lemites. I have assimilated this autism into my own.
Bam. Right here. It’s all about that weight distribution, simple as. First time I grabbed a carton by the light end, my stomach dropped. Not having that, no way.
So always put the heavy (short, not long) end facing the door, so you always grab the heavy end, and never have this problem.
You try to take the egg carton out of the fridge and it's unbalanced ONE TIME...
The problem now is living with someone who doesn’t do this and then you expect it to be balanced because you take the time and effort to be precise as a show of appreciation for the others around you so they don’t befall the same fate that YOU now must suffer as you discover the eggs are now unbalanced and they spill all over the floor, because they didn’t happen to hyper focus these exact thoughts and how could they be so inconsiderate after you put in so much effort to focus on this to prevent this exact situation
Bro life is too exhausting wtf
Eggs all over the floor! Especially if the carton is also not quite hooked shut, or slightly creased.
I do this and I am not austic.
I might have picked it up from this guy.
Yeah, this is a common sense thing. If you don't balance the mass the next time you pull it out of the fridge there's a good chance the imbalance causes the carton to twist or to bang it on something on the way out.
If your carton can physically do that, then either your carton is paper and not carton, or your eggs have stones inside them.
I’m not autistic or OCD, and I do this too. It’s just common sense and mildly entertaining.
I do also balance the carton. Not always absolute symmetry but don't want someone to drop them.
Huh... I do this too. I like the box to be balanced when I take it outta the fridge.
I do this because the weight distribution is even so i don’t drop the carton when grabbing it out of the fridge again
Or you just put the heavy end facing the door of the refrigerator so you always are picking up the heavy end and not the empty end. It should be that way anyways if you're putting the eggs in the fridge because you'd also want to be holding the stable end of the carton and not the empty side.
I do this too for weight distribution, but I don't make sure it's symmetrical. I'm worried someone in my family will be surprised by the uneven weight of the carton when they pull it off the shelf and drop it.
I do that all the time. The eggs MUST BE balanced.
now kick your egg balancing autism into high gear to start balancing electrons on atoms to discover new elements.
or balance the number of molecules to create a new type of crystal that cures cancer.
or...you get the picture.
This is the way!
YOU'RE A GENIUS ! I take eggs out starting by one end and it always feels super weird to have an unbalanced carton, I'll have to try your method.
I'm positive there is a correlation between ocd and autism. This seems like it's hinting at a more ocd thing. Still it's not entirely irrational itself.
I think with this carton you can get a weight-balanced arrangement for any number of eggs except one and seventeen. So whatever you do at the start and end of the carton, it better involve at least two eggs
There's another way to egg?
Ngl I'm too lazy to do this and just take eggs out from right to left. I always put the carton back in the fridge the same way so the weight is always on the end I grab.
not autistic but I picked up a very unbalanced egg carton once and realized we shouldn't have unbalanced egg cartons. it's just sensible.
Balance is everything, I don't want the carton to flip on me cause the eggs are placed randomly
T'was the tism m'lord
How are you going to rearrange the eggs when you take out the next egg?
you take out another egg
And if you are left with a prime number of eggs?
2 is a prime. I think you meant odd.
Of course, how could I forget about the oddest prime!
Always removed in two, there are. No more. No less.
When it must be inbalanced due to the number of eggs, as long as the extra weight is towards the hinge then it retains the safety benefits of being balanced.
Since I get eggs while holding the carton I tend to take from the 'outside' row first, starting at the ends, and work my way into the center by the hinge. This puts the weight in the hand I'm using to hold the carton and works well even for 18 and 24 count cartons. If I set the carton down before yoinking eggs, I would go for more balance.
Huh, maybe I should give it a try…..
