Which absolute psychopath has the one on the right?

That would be me.

My walls are painted white, and are bare of any paintings, posters or decorations.

I rent, and don't own anything.

I don't have any fingerprints.

In the freezer, is a mould containing the exact shape of NATO standard ca—

I'm just messing with you lmfao

Left bottom shelve here too. How do right shelvers even do anything while keeping the whole thing neat???

They don't actually use most of them.

I am a right cabinet person forced to have a left cabinet because I am too poor to throw away perfectly good mugs and usable glasses just to have a matching set.

I just kinda accumulated pints and whiskey glasses and one day I realized I have no "regular" glassware. Then my girlfriend moved in with like 30 mismatched mugs and we are now almost exactly left cabinet.

Someone who just moved out on their own and can afford new kitchen items

I'm both and I think most people are both, having several of some and also random ones.

I'm definitely both but that's because my cup wear is a random collection of cups that I acquired somehow over the years and stuff I actually went out and bought and only the bought stuff matches.

No one's going to take my bee cup away from me, it's got pictures of bees on and says "beeee happy" and can contain an Olympic swimming pool with a drink. I think I got it in an Easter egg.

There are only two options. What would be a third?

Two glasses, both of which are in the kitchen sink.

I suspect that to some level this reflects how varied one's path through life has been.

Certainly my own varied collection of mugs and cups is mainly the product of having lived in many different places and having picked new mugs up along the way. Also I'll keep old mugs around even after they're chipped because they're associated with my memories of places I lived in before.

That said, maybe a varied life and a hodge-podge collection of mugs are correlated and have a common cause, rather than having a causal relation - it makes sense that the kind of people comfortable with moving to places were they don't know anybody (and even with different cultures, if they change countries) would also be comfortable with a less than perfect collection of cups and mugs.

A lady we used to be friends with was like this.

She was too intense for us so we stopped hanging out with them and then our house cleaner (that we both used) told us they quit.

Turns out our ex friend was too intense about getting the house clean for our house cleaner and we had to promise not to tell the friend that our cleaner still worked for us to keep her.

Claudia clean day has been going on every other Wednesday several years strong and we're very happy with her!

But seriously, how bananas do you have to be about getting things clean for a house cleaner to say "this is too much"?

We do both. We have organized dishes in one cupboard, and an absolute cluster-fuck in the one where we keep all the kids' dishes and water bottles. In 30 years it will be that cupboard that our grand-kids pull an old plastic Barbie cup out of and have to give a quick smell test before pouring their drink into. You know the one.

My parents and my partner’s parents are BOTH! Regular stuff cupboards are the left image, and fancy stuff that never gets used goes in clear glass displays sorted like the right image.

Yep! I'm both! My glass hutch in the kitchen is all clear and white glass and matching sets, daily use. My hoarders nest cabinet in the pantry holds cups from mystic pizza, the pirate restaurant, promotional yetis, my nostalgic Tupperware from college with no lid.
