Checking something multiple times to assure yourself that something is correct or safe because you are aware of the consequences of it being not safe or correct.
I triple checked that all the divers scuba tanks were fully open and that the gear looked correct because I have healthy paranoia.
I got healthy paranoia so proof read the document a few times before sending it off to the publisher.

Get the Parking Paranoia mug.The paranoia beast is a many-headed, many-horned, invisible beast that descends upon a group of stoners as they slide into mashedness and causes them all to suspect each other of pretty much anything. Repeated exposure to the paranoia beast causes long-term psychosis, and can lead to complete insanity, during which the victim is unable to trust anyone or anything, and is permanently haunted by the beast night and day, when every creak, every knock, every minute sound is the beast's footsteps.
Stoner 1: Is Kenny okay? He's got that strange look in his eyes....
Stoner 2: Looks like he's being visited by the Paranoia Beast. Give him a bit, he'll come round.
Kenny: (Growls)

Get the Paranoia Beast mug.Synonymous with "Disciple of Vapour", taken to the next level of being almost 30 years old. Being a 'Father Paranoia' is basically shedding your quarter life crisis for your mid-life crisis.
Friend 1:"I use to be 'Disciple of Vapour'...but that name sucks, I'm gonna be 'Father Paranoia' now."
Friend 2:"When are you going to be comfortable with your identity?"

Get the Father Paranoia mug.When sitting anywhere but a car especially with your cellphone on silent. Every slight bump and jolt seems like it is vibrating. This is especially traumatic when you actually are waiting for some important call.
Dude 1: What the hell is that guy doing?
Dude 2: The one with torn clothes and wild eyes?
Dude 1: Yeah, he's pulling his cell from his pocket every twenty seconds.
Dude 2: Oh, that's just phone paranoia.

Get the Phone paranoia mug.Compulsory design behaviour, in which a designer is stuck in the act of adjusting of adjusting the size or position of an object on a pixel-sized level.
