It's practically zen like.
All of our state tax forms seem to be like that. And vehicle information...those stupid little forms always tear when you try to open them.
The worst though is the prison of restraints that barbies and other things seem to come in these days. It's a legit struggle to free the toys for your kids after you buy them without cutting yourself. It's like they come forged right into the packaging.
The irony! Once I bought new scissors that were plastic sealed all around. Hmmm, what?!? I know those people at the scissor packaging factory were just laughing their butts off about it!

When you respond on a thread and it doesn’t post.

Sometimes when people on-line ask a question to which they could easily find the answer to themselves. They’re on the kitten internet already. Never heard of Google?2

It is actually safer to back into a parking spot when you first arrive rather than to wait until you're leaving. Some companies require their employees to back in for safety. The reason being they are still in the "driving mode" and have a better control and visualization of the driving space. Backing out into moving traffic is a *kitten*. That said I drive a truck, it's FAR easier to back in when I get somewhere and be able to pull out than to pull in and have some non-driving twit park all wonky next to you and make maneuvering nearly impossible.1 -

I get really irked by people who feel this compulsive need to point out when a "dead" thread in a forum gets a fresh response. It's petty and proves nothing except that you looked at the date of the previous post and the other person didn't. If you think it's a stupid thing to do, then DON'T POST ON THE THREAD IN RESPONSE AND KEEP IT GOING. Don't say "you revived a dead thread..." What does it matter? It's an open thread... Someone searched for a topic and found it and chose to respond, and that's that.
These are usually the same people who *kitten* if someone starts a new thread when an thread about the same thing already exists, and then takes precious minutes out of their life to let everyone know about it. I guess there can only be one thread for each topic, it must always be a fresh thread, and if there's a lull in the conversation at a time that is determined by THEM, then we all have to stop chiming in and never, ever discuss it ever again

We have people in our office who back into parking spaces because "when there's a terrorist attack I can make a quick getaway". No, they're not joking, and yes, they have a gun rack mounted in the back and a holster on their steering wheel.

That would be sweet.
Everyone has a hobby, as long as it doesn't hurt someone I'm okay with it. 1 -

If the reasoning's to ridicule, then I agree but if it's just to inform, then I am grateful!0 -
People that "Like" their own posts, when they've followers/friends; to do that for them instead! I mean I do it, upon my News Feed here; with my automatic MFP generated posts because I don't have, any friends but if it's a post that I type, concerning being proud of myself; then I'll mention and/or make it obvious, that it's something for me; to've pride within myself for & thus it's unnecessary, to further emphasize; that notion!1

Yes I should have clarified that I am referring to the people who use it as an opportunity to make the other person look like a rube. If it's for information only, I'm cool with it.

The improper use of 'literally'.
