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”

    I will always choose to read stupidly spelled product or brand names exactly as written.

      I’ve always had fun trying to say ever letter in most words. Like that french knight in Monty Python, “I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur king, you and all your silly English k-nnnigggets” which is hilarious to me because french words dont use like half the letters in them usually

      Me “Hi, is that, umm… Phones, number four, uhhhh?”

      Phones4u “Haha, yes, but It’s pronounced ‘Phones For You’”

      Me “Oh, it’s it a wrong number? I’ve got it written down here, it’s a number four, not a word ‘for’ f-o-r, and it’s not the word ‘you’, but just a letter U on its own, which is pronounced ‘uh’”

      Phones4u “yes, that’s how we write it”

      Me “Why? Why didn’t you do it properly? It’s just like that argument with the 90s boyband Fiveive all over again.”

      Etc etc
