OCD: Orange County Disorder.
A severe behavioural disorder which swept the globe between 2003 - 2007, during which the Fox network aired "the
O.C.", a glamorous teen drama centred around a group of self-centred teens.
Symptoms of OCD include: Nervous breakdowns while waiting for new episodes; inability to
sleep without hearing a witty quip from Seth or a
dumb-brunette catch-phrase from
Summer; shouting things out during
sleep such as "No!
Don't punch him, Ryan! They'll send you back to juvi!" or "Put your damn bagels away,
Sandy, nobody likes them!!".
Signs of the disorder include: Long, flowery dresses and excessive beaded necklaces, in imitation of Mischa Barton's fashion; a spray-on, orangey complexion; mass-consumption of bagels; the tendency to break off a relationship due to something frustratingly trivial such as an overdue term paper or a broken nail.
Kelli: And THEN Kirsten had to go to rehab, but she didn'
t want to, but they made her, and then she was all "oh ok, I'll go to rehab" but then Marissa was all "BANG BANG
BANG!" and then Trey was all..
Cashier: Ma'am, I
don't know who or care who this Melissa character is. Please pay for your magazines so I can carry on with my depressing life.
Bystander: Looks like a serious
case of OCD.. Tsk tsk tsk..
