i think we should either take a deep dive on this topic or put it in the parking lot and discuss later.

This feels like a level, using the most misused and overused word in the English language to critique a cliche.

I've never made a water glass or a Pyrex measuring cup, but is it really that hard to create one that pours ONLY out of the spout, like it's supposed to? I get so sick of pouring water/something out of a container and the liquid ends up running to the bottom of the cup and NOT into where it's supposed to be going. What brings this to mind most recently is a 1 cup Pyrex measuring cup that just doesn't work the way it's designed. I've been refilling hummingbird feeders often as they pass through for migration and e ve ry time, pour malfunction. It's probably me, not the cup, sigh.

It's not just you, and it should piss you off, imo. It's an engineering problem and these companies that almost exclusively make things for pouring liquid should be better at it. I have a new coffee maker that is otherwise awesome, but the carafe is a dribble glass and it pisses me the hell off.

My kettle is like that. So tilting, especially when you dribble boiling water all over your foot. I've learnt the technique of just pouring really slowly.

When a website or app asks you for security verification every time you login, even though they have the remember me option to check.

The strangeness of waiting in line at times. So I will be approaching a line of people at the sandwich place for example and a dude will be acting distracted like 8 feet away from the person at the counter. Then I need to ask if they are in line with my intonation that they look like they are disengaged and just happen to be in proximity of this waiting in line thing.
Then there is the opposite where I am clearly far away from the line and perhaps have already gotten my stuff, and some person will hover for a moment and ask if I'm in line, grrrrrr

There might be a culture of people doing bad at their job on purpose. I've noticed two sets of people (night crew at a psych ward, and grocery cashiers) that are overly-willing to serve poorly.

From today - I default to self check-out always, but it was a zoo today at Target so I opted for the manual option. Lady asks if I'll be carrying my purchase, I put the basket down and tell her I won't be stealing today; then I carried my stuff by hand.

Obviously the play is to use a cart. Which is ridiculous, and among too many reasons why I need to learn how to shop autonomously.

When people refer to a sousaphone as a tuba. Even the people playing the instrument do this.

The cool kids call it a "marching tuba".

when a basketball team wins on a buzzer-beater from behind and people automatically assert they didn't deserve to win/the other team played better overall.

let's just acknowledge Pete Carroll has been rolling on Molly for the past 10 years of his life and move past it.

I hate all iterations of the winning team not "deserving" to win. So the team that scored fewer points than the team that doesn't deserve to win should have won?

This really grinds my gears too.
