Try shuffling what you wear so it's not the same outfit every monday. If you have 7 outfits, that's 7 weeks before you end up wearing the same thing on the same day.
3. Out ALWAYS has priority. Always. It's pretty obvious when you think about it with the old phrase "out with the old, in with the new" or look at basically any analogy in real life. If there's already something in a place where you want to put something else, you have to remove the other thing first. And if you don't then it gets crowded and complicated.
4. A nod or a hand wave is literally all you need to do. If you're walking, step aside and say "go ahead". I assume you're talking about driving, though.
Yeah, I was more worried about the Jackie Chan taunt gesture (and who knows what else) being rude. Socially Awkward Penguin me also did the whole "step aside and slightly bow with extended hand" thing to let someone through a few times.
I've noticed my Philosophy instructor wearing the same shirts a few times during the quarter, so I suppose people do notice this kind of thing. On the other hand, though, I spend 225 minutes per week staring at him, so I'm bound to notice it.
I do care a little bit but not enough to go through the trouble of organizing the clothes (though I spend days literally to organize my computer files). Besides, I can't bring myself to spend money on clothes ($25 per pair of jeans, for example) when I'm only allowing myself one Pringles can per month for snacking.
