This is a real thing I do. It feels weird if the weight of the carton isn't evenly balanced when I take it from the fridge.

Relevant XKCD
According to this I am chaotic neutral, not sure what that means? I aim to balance the weight evenly, when pulling out of the fridge, the carton stays level.
I use Lawful Good for the same reason. Both keep the center of weight in the middle, but your method is more evenly distributed.
I'm chaotic good. Balanced haphazardly and without order.
Chaotic good here.
Yep, I'm an Autist.
... Also had a mom with pretty severe OCD, so I always remember that 'good enough is good enough', in scenarios like this.
EDIT:
... Also also, I find the lawful evil solution to be utterly diabolical and actually makes me angry just being exposed to it conceptually... which I guess does make sense, opposite sections of the chart.
Did your mom also have a neverending project of slowly removing the old layers of lead paint from the inside of the house by scraping it off a little at a time with a razor blade?
... No?
She had different kinds of cleaning routines/phobias/rituals.
There is always a relevant xkcd.
I disagree with most of those. Lawful neutral is evil for example, as it imbalances the carton away from the hinge.
Knowing Randall, I wouldn't be surprised if he actually got his own DnD group, or conducted some sort of poll, where he actually asked people already in certain alignment categories to describe their own egg carton balancing patterns... or lack thereof.
That would come closer to the actual alignments self representing...
But also I have no idea, this is just my head canon now rofl.
My wife insists on true neutral and I can't think of a worse way of doing it. I try to counterbalance with lawful good whenever I have eggs, bit I'm always playing catch up...
TIL I'm true neutral. Always thought I was chaotic good.
Per this example I'm lawful good
