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”
On the toilet paper debate, as far as I can tell it largely has to do with whether people stand up or sit down to wipe. People who stand up want the paper unrolling on the front (because they can’t easily reach under the roll), while people who sit down and wipe can go either way.
For my petty hill, “Duck” brand tape is awful and should never be bought. It’s just slightly above generic dollar brand tape in quality, and should absolutely never be bought if you have any other options. Go with Scotch or anything else really.
Trucks should be used for working and not hauling groceries. Get a fucking car or a van. Roads are safer with more crash compatibe vehicles that also weigh less. Large trucks should need a special licence to drive/own Driving should also be taught in school
As someone who lives in Texas and watches the biggest trucks be driven by the worst drivers on the road, I agree with the extra license bit. I also believe they should only be allowed to park in specifically designated spots, considering how often they don’t fit in a parking spot and block parts of parking lots.
Large american pickup trucks shouldnt even need to exist. You could get almost the same bed space with a kei truck (which granted is not easy to import or get but still)
There are certain large vehicles that are still needed but the F150 (and similar) shouldn’t be in every fucking driveway Trucks are purpose built vehicles.
I own a brewery and the number of people that drive 30-40 min in a truck to pick up a 50L keg is insane. I have a Veloster and can put 5 full kegs in it…
The toilet paper roll has to be placed so the tear off sheet faces the shitting person, and not the wall.
I hate when people stick there shaft in my mouth before dipping it in peanut butter!!! I mean really! 🤷♂️

People trying to stop an industrial war machine built on religious differences and racism by saying “I’m not voting for ______ until _____ happens” are ineffective idiots too stupid to understand the blatant bullshit they’re peddling or the power they have in their vote.
If you want to change a politician’s mind, you don’t do it by dangling your vote on a carrot.
Canon is important to science fiction and comic book adaptations because the rules of those universes operate so wildly different from our own that it is important to put more work in keeping things consistent.
Stick to the side of the path your country drives on or at least move to that side if someones comming the otherway. I don’t get how this isn’t common knowledge but it also doesn’t matter all that much.
I have given up on “steep learning curve”. A learning curve is proficiency on the Y axis against time on the X. A steep learning curve indicates something that is learned very quickly. A shallow learning curve is something that takes a long time to master. See Ebbinghaus 1885.
CEREAL FIRST, THEN MILK!!! COLD MILK! I DON’T CARE HOW YOUR MOM USED TO FIX IT, THIS IS THE ONLY CORRECT WAY!!!
I can’t take people who say “your guyses” seriously.
Fruit does not belong on a non dessert Pizza, and unless you are a horticulturalist or other form of plant scientist, a tomato is not a fruit (Do you put tomatoes in fruit salad?)
Funny; probably the opposite of yours.
Facing the toilet paper outward increases the chance that the paper rips with the roll being in such a position that the loose portion of the roll is lying exactly against the roll: I don’t want to have to spin the roll to be able to get to the loose bit. Having the loose bit closer to the wall – probably by virtue of being further away from the user – more often results in it being ripped such that a bit is hanging below the roll, making it easier to grab more often. It’s, in total, a much more consistently enjoyable user experience.
Also, less being constrained only to countable objects is an artificial and unintuitive definition. It’s not like

, describing two distinct concepts which never overlap.Fewer
is in reference to counting by individual elements so it wouldn’t make sense to apply to things which aren’t inherently segmented but it’s entirely possibly to measure less of the total of a segmented collection. To say less milk is to take a reduction of the total amount of milk available; this is perfectly feasible with a segmented collection, like cookies. To say less cookies is to take a reduction of the total amount of cookies, something fully measurable and actionable. It is merely thatfewer
is applicable to a subset of the things whichless

I had not realized the latter was a hill I’d die on but, boy, will I, now.

If you can’t scan your groceries at self check out under 3 minutes go to a register when it’s busy. You’re people are holding the rest of us up. I can scan a full cart faster than some can scan their 10 items.
