It’s official. Former Olympic skater Adam Rippon does not have an untidy space within his household.
Rippon has demonstrated on previous Instagram videos how he likes to keep a tidy and well-organized household. His kitchen is immaculate. His guest bedroom looks like a top-end hotel room.
Surely if there was one untidy space in his home, it would be his garage, right?
Wrong.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In his latest video, Rippon gives his followers a look at his garage. From the looks of it, we’re not even sure if a car ever graces the space.
Who keeps their old house paint in decorative baskets? Or their paper towels on a Lazy Susan? Or decants bags of soil into bins and then affixes the bag labels onto the bins?
Adam Rippon, that’s who.
Watch below.

Among those to comment was Rippon’s mom, Kelly. She said Adam needed more closet space so he could take all the trophies she still has at home.
“You need one more closet, “the early years” to empty my basement 😘 of your trophies and treasures 🤩”
Karamo Brown from Queer Eye also registered his approval, saying, “This makes me so happy.”
Many said Rippon deserved his own TV series.
“You need a reality show. Everything you say and do is hilarious,” commented one.
If you missed it, here’s Adam’s tour of his kitchen from a few weeks ago.

I get the feeling that he’s the type that would scream if you made the mistake of not not putting the dishes away in the right spot or left anything on the counter tops.

It seems to me that this a gentleman with a fairly severe case of OCD.

I have a friend who is the same way and one of my sisters. She would watch and when she thought you were done eating ( even though there was still food on your plate ) she would take it and wash it , Her husband used to get so upset . My friend would watch if you opened a new jar of coffee and as soon as you removed the protective inner seal he would take it and put it in the garbage .

OCD? Perhaps.
But *please* come organize my garage!

I’m…. kinda like this. I like to have a foundation, an organized system underpinning my day-to-day life, which allows it to run more smoothly and efficiently. Part of the problem which arises is that you then have to maintain the system itself, which adds to and expands your preparatory duties (things you have to take care of before you just… start living). I have a part-time housekeeper, which helps a lot, but again adds another layer of responsibility (an employee).
I was chatting with my mother recently, who still prefers to write checks to pay her monthly bills. Does anyone else still do this? Me, I’ve automated (online banking) virtually everything that can be automated. I’ve implemented as much technology into my life as possible.

I write checks. I don’t like the automated payments because if I am short, I can’t control it and I don’t want to start bouncing checks. Also, I like writing and doing things a little old fashioned.

ok that’s fair.

You know he’s obviously pretty OCD, but it’s so cute to watch him describe everything.
scotty
he’s adorbs.

can’t imagine trying to make him happy in a real life relationship. I mean Im quite neat but I asm not wasting my time on this level oof organization. Life is not happening in perfect vacuums. He seems very nice and I do like his upbeat attitude but like others here have pointed out I have known someone like this, in my case a woman who broke off friendships over a guest slicing the butter in a way she did not like. no joke it was quite sad as she called them out over brunch and embarrassed them so badly they refused to ever be in her presence again. People before things

I hate it when my toilet paper dispenses in the”wrong”direction. It’s 3 day notice time.

That’s hilarious.
Thanks for this.

This is slightly more extreme than I tend to be, but honestly I support it. Would be great to have a partner who shared my preference for not only organisation of a practical nature, but also symmetries, etc..
