I'm curious how many of those 7/10 think it's a good thing

My brother in law has ADHD. He lives next door to me.

He has a car he parks on the street. In my city you're required to get a registration sticker for your car, it's like $100 or something, good for a year. Every day you don't have a valid sticker you can get a new ticket on your car. It takes two minutes to go online and order a new one.

For the last three years, hes been racking up tickets on his car for an expired sticker. One a week roughly, $60 per ticket I think. He usually lets them pile up until he gets final notices then pays them all online at double the cost.

Twice now he's has his car booted, then impounded, due to unpaid tickets. He even includes tickets on his car as part of budgeting. I've offered a couple times if he'd hand me his license to go online and order the sticker for him. I've stopped offering since that offer is met with intense anger.

It takes TWO MINUTES to go online and order a new one. Poor guy

I'm an American who speaks decent German. I've gotten this flak traveling in non-German speaking Europe - Stupid American only speaking English attitude thrown my way. Mother fucker I'm in France, a German would also be using English here. To some people the only way to not be "that American" is to speak all the languages.

On the flip side, I've had a few Germans ask me why I bothered learning their language when I could just use English.

My hometown installed roundabouts, with 4 way stop signs. Like, why.

Me, a heathen, explaining how my family does Easter to my Jewish wife:

"We dye eggs and hide them then eat a bunch of chocolate and jellybeans."

"Wtf? Why"

"I dunno"

Yeah I used to go out in the backyard in summer and catch a bunch of fireflies (we'd always let them go after). Now it's a rarity to even see one

My wife and I refer to a cat in the lap compelling the other to do things for you as the "Kitty Claws" of our marriage contract

I worked at an office once where the wifi legitimately got worse when it rained. It was because the buildings internet used an antenna instead of being wired, and the building was just barely in range of the source signal. When it rained, it was enough added distortion to make it noticeably worse.
