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”

    That doesn’t sound pedantic or pointless at all. That just sounds like pointing out something really, really stupid.

    Like that guy who was afraid too many people on an island would cause it to tip over. Like it was floating or something, and not just higher ground.

      So not to be pendantic (lol), but this is the definition of a pendant:

      noun noun: pedant; plural noun: pedants

      a person who is excessively concerned with minor details and rules or with displaying academic learning.
      

      With pedantic of course meaning acting in that way. I feel like pointing out my technical knowledge is unnecessary in the grand scheme of things but even if I try to let it go my brain will hang on to it until I tell them, even if that is much later on.

      That said, hopefully it’s not pointless to share!
