...because something like this happened to me once. And I did open and shut a goddam door several times, after a close friend walked out of my life. And I was laughing as I did it, looking at myself objectively. I still laugh, for the most part...

Spends all day walking and doing floor exercises to increase his ability to walk long distances.
He can walk for half an hour but wants to do more. Then when he does more - he still isn't satisfied and wants to extend his time even more. One hour? Nope then he wants to walk for 2 hours.
He does this from 8 AM to 3PM every day.
Just one example.
You can only speak on the topic he introduces (no matter how weird or racist his opinion) and you can never disagree with him. You can only agree or he gets upset.

Got to go wash my hands, several times, every hour! Don't forget to shut that door and check it thrice.
