Were TRF member bottle fed instead of Breast Fed?

I have to ask this question. When I was but a wee lad, I was told that people who where bottle fed tend to be more insecure, OCD, have issues of abandonment, Clingy, afraid to let go or move on, need things in their lives perfect, every thing must be organized etc...

So the following are some quotes, paraphrased from this forum:

OMG I must be obsessive Compulsive
My watch is 2/3 seconds slow. That is unacceptable to me
My second hand and minute had do not line up perfectly at the 12 position. I must have them line up.
I cannot bring myself to wear my watch(s). I do not want to ruin it.
I keep all my watches in the safe, so that they will look perfect.
I do not wear my watch at work, because it might get scratches.
I put tape on my band when I wear it so that it does not get scratches. (This was followed up with actual photos and general agreement that this was a good idea) (This is the one that caused me to right this post) Doesn't the tape leave marks?
I just got my first nick, what should I do? Will RSC fix if for a reasonable fee?

"Bob (that's me) you are crazy to use your watch as a wheel chock for your car." Yep, he's right.
"Bob, (that's me again) you should not use your watch while mountain biking. It will shock the insides just like dropping it on tile." (This one has me seriously considering it)

When I joined this forum one of the first things I saw was this woman's picture on her post that said "No Rolex, no sex." I said to myself, "Self, this is a righteous forum." Alas, instead I have been hit by the insecurities of the bottle fed crowd. I was hoping for rallies like car clubs with sun filled outings and parties in bowls of Jello. What better way to test the water tightness of the watches?

I was told that there were some real forum troupers here. Some guy with over 44,000 posts. So, I endeavored to get this Master to comment on some of my posts. But, whoa is me. I am unworthy. Several posts I have made and to my knowledge not one comment from this master guru.

So I ask you.. Are you guys all bottle fed or just a few blokes in need of a pint?

To prove that I was breast fed I submit to you actually un-retouched photos of me in my office. As you can see, only a supremely secure individual could work in an office like this. Ah, the southern California lifestyle.

Oh and for the fun of it, some photos of a 125 year old clock.
