Apple hardware is pretty good.
I fought the good fight for years, but modern windows and android hardware is shit in comparison.
Queue the Linux crowd. Listen I like Linux, but every day usability with minimal tinkering isn’t there. Apple stuff just works, and there’s merit to that now.
Tom Brady was a good quarterback.
I absolutely hate sorting my trash. I loved the idea, and contributing to the recycling cycle. I hate that I’m expected to do the effort and fined for my mistakes, all while knowing that a) big corp gets a lot of slack for creating pollution, for not using better packaging, for directly polluting their manufacturing facilities’ surroundings etc… b) plastic is mostly not recycled.
The worst part is in my city, they don’t actually recycle. Even the stuff in the recycle bin goes to the dump…
Have recycling bins convient for each room you spend the most time in, I have a small bin on my desk and recycling bins in my kitchen
I guess, that’s not the biggest issue. Everyone has that, who’s sorting their trash. The real annoying part (at least for me) is taking the effort to physically take the trash apart. For example removing cellotape from cardboard, removing metal clips from cardboard, washing food remains from containers, removing paper labels from cans, etc. It takes time, and sometimes it’s not even easy to do.
I go to great lengths to do all that, but when it turns out to be impossible, I just throw it in the general waste and I don’t care.
True, my though is that if you just sort it when you throw it away, into a separated recycling bin (paper, glass, plastic) and still use a general bin aswell.
I’m part of the problem, and probably won’t change.
Probably 15 years ago while on a freeway interchange, some guy behind me on a cloverleaf whipped past after we merged onto the freeway then slowed down in the left lane to match the speed of a semi. It was clearly intentional as the road was otherwise relatively empty and he kept pace with the truck for a good 10 miles, blocking me in.
To this day I have no idea what his problem was, and part of me feels bad for him because… what normal happy person just randomly takes time out of their day to fuck with someone to thay extent!? But I remember it clearly, so it obviously pissed me off to a degree, yet it feels really petty to still think about it, so idk.
Did you drive a flashy vehicle, by chance? I happen to have a bright yellow car and the number of people it seems to make irrationally mad should be a disclaimer at purchase. People are dumb. Including me for buying this yellow car I can’t afford to replace.
That could be it. It was a turbocharged compact (back before literally everything was a 4cyl turbo), though not externally very flashy. So maybe he was just one of those guys who sported a perpetual hste-boner for imports.
Nothing, really, I don’t hate to admit anything that pisses me off.
For example, pharmaceutical commercials will give their drug a logo with specific colors, then everything in the commercial will be those specific colors.
I get the branding, but it still pisses me off.

Once you see it, you can’t un-see it.
For me it’s trying to put on a screen protector on my phone then afterwards noticing that spec of dust just sitting there in direct view
Always use the dust sticker.
Yep but there is always that one spec of dust that still manages to find its way under the screen protector
I’d love to laugh and agree with you, but using tape WILL get rid of the dust if you look carefully. I haven’t had dust under any of my screen protectors in decades.
That’s a fancy way to overcharge scotch tape.
They usually include one with the screen protector, so I use it, but yeah, Scotch tape works great.
