For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don't want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That's ludicrous!

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use "less" when they should use "fewer"

Abolishing the word "automobile" since it mixes Greek and latin.

Oh god, you'd have to abolish sooo many words if you went that way.

Natural scrolling is wrong. Mouse, touchpad, doesn't matter, it's wrong.

Most people do not know the meaning of the word "Feminism/Feminist" and use it to describe crazy people on twitter...

Fahrenheit is a better measurement for ancient human temperature.

Crunchy peanut butter shouldn't exist. It's lazy, unfinished peanut butter. At the very least, it should cost less. Why are we paying the same price for a job half finished?
