Don't show this to anyone with OCD.

Have OCD, occasionally counterspin to reverse one I've done but only single spins. This would drive me crazy lol

I don't have OCD but I definitely have this spinning thing. The worst thing is when you're unsure if you are short a spin or not, it's like having a sneeze stuck that won't come out
