Were you watching a pornograph?
The reason I won't get a Tesla has nothing to do with Musk or the car's sketchy reliability.
It has everything to do with the simple fact that I don't like having my basic instruments over in the center console instead of in front of me.
It's pronounced "gif," not "gif."
E-sports should be hyphenated, or at the very least stylized as eSports.
It's a water heater, not a hot water heater, why would anyone want to heat water that's already hot?
Toilet paper over the top
Games with kernel level anti-cheat.
Also Denuovo
I will always choose to read stupidly spelled product or brand names exactly as written.
Black and White Checkered Vans High Tops are not good shoes.
I can't take people who say "your guyses" seriously.
Romeo and Juliet is a comedy, not a tragedy.
Two teenagers thinking their first crush is worth literally killing themselves in the dumbest scenario imaginable, I mean come on!

How do you feel?
aluminium isn't a metal
The miss use of the term "billet". As in "Made from Billet Aluminum to military specs" I have literally sourced metals from all over the world. Ain't no one ever tried to sell me "billet" anything.
A billet is an old term that was used when iron and steels were smelted and then poured in to either kind of a bread loaf mold or a round shape called a bloom. It would then be reheated at a later time and then formed into the final shape. No one would use "billet" or a "bloom" to make anything from it. It would have been "sponge" like and to soft to be useful for anything.
Fecking sales trying to market to ignorant people with a term that doesn't mean what anyone thinks it means.
The little separator bars on the conveyor belts thingies at the cashier in a super market should always be placed for the person behind you. If the bozo in front of me wants to pay for my shit he can go right ahead.
A few weeks ago I went to the grocery to buy a few chocolate bars. The guy in front of me had a bunch of stuff and I placed my chocolate on the belt wayyyyy behind his stuff in a little pile. To me it looked obvious that it was not part of his purchases. I didn't even think of using the separator thing. I was very tired at the time and not paying much attention.
Of course...the cashier grabbed my candy and rang it up with his stuff. Dude in front of me nicely told her that those were not his. The cashier apologized, I apologized, and then the cashier started going through the corporate point-of-sale-obstacle-course of undoing the chocolate candy from his purchase.
At this point, the other customer was more than ready to get out of there, "Don't worry about it. I don't mind buying his chocolate and I really don't have time for this." Embarrassed, I apologized again. He said don't sweat it, buddy and left.
I got a serious gangster vibe off the guy, too. I thought damn...did the mob just buy me chocolate?
So yeah...your idea could save a life!
What kind of chocolate was it, it's important.
Sigh....don't judge me. It was just a handful of Snickers bars. I have trying some of the better stuff from Aldi, but this was a crappy grocery store that just happened to be close to where we have game night, so I popped in and bought some for the group.
People should stop purchasing things from Nintendo. The literal worst company I've ever been a fan of.
The toilet paper roll has to be placed so the tear off sheet faces the shitting person, and not the wall.
The paperclip character from Microsoft Office is called Clippit, not Clippy.
The software is Clippit and the Character is Clippy You could download it separately from office
Deep down, he's really just Bob.
When saying "Next" in reference to a time "Next" means the soonest occurrence of that. Don't skip one. If today is friday and I say "Next Saturday", that is tomorrow, not 8 days from now.

If you’ve ever had a cat sit in front of a toilet paper roll and spin it, you will appreciate having the open end toward the wall so it doesn't fully unravel
Shut the door.....
Literbox is in there. Why would I smell up a different room of the house?
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.
My grocery store just changed from 6 registers + self-checkout to 2 registers + 12 self checkout.
And the register lanes used to always be full.
I do not look forward to going to the store now. It's a mess.
Depends entirely on the self checkout system in use. My local Kroger has a system that's absolutely awful to use. Seconds between placing an item in the baking area and the register acknowledging it, and if you scan another item before it's weighed and acknowledged it'll yell at you. A few times of that and an associate has to come by and unlock it.
Most of the ones I've used at Walmart will handle me scanning and bagging as fast as I want for the most part.

That my wife HAS to dust off her feet before getting in bed. Dirty bed? Go fudge yourself!
I’ve always wanted to write a bot that replies to comments that say „I have no words” with a list of random words
They: "I don't even."
You:"... lift, bro?"
