Does this make me a jerk?

I dont think he has a personal judge for his casual games :p

I see no problem with this. As long as you aren't spending exorbitant amounts of time counting and it's not a thing that you do continually throughout a single game, this is probably a good habit if anything.

Hmmm I guess you do have a chance before a game starts to doublecheck: count while you shuffle/cut

ive seen opponents who pile shuffle opponents decks to count them everytime before a game starts.

That is the exact reason why I pile shuffle. There has even been a couple of times that my deck hasn't been 60 cards and i picked up on it in time. It's a good habit to get into.

I do this too. Get into the same niche when you do it and know which position your deck stops on. It becomes habitual.
