I’ve posted about this before.

Mr. brown will be in a completely different room, and ask “What’s this?” What am I, a mind reader? Lately I’ve gotten snarky and I’ll start hazarding absurd guesses: “A penguin? A B-52 bomber? A first edition Bukowski? Let me know if I’m getting warm.” Then he gets all petulant because I didn’t come a-runnin’ to see just what it is that he’s talking about.

Then there are the other Monk-like behaviors. Coming into a room, he will instantly notice if a piece of furniture has been moved 1/4 of an inch and question it.

Were I in your shoes, I’d move every piece of furniture every day.
