    2 dishwashers would be pretty useful.

    I'd add "wanker" to that short list.

    I mind both a lot less when they're coming from a Brit though.

    Another thing I've noticed is that Brits will never pass up an opportunity to say "penultimate". Maybe North Americans say "second last" just as frequently and I don't notice, but when it comes to those dandies over there, if it's the penultimate anything you'll fuckin know about it.

    Antipenultimate is a word I learned this year and I have a really hard time working it into a conversation.

    I concur - that's a difficult one to work in.

    Polygamists know this.

    When people treat stairs like a public bench then get all frowny when I knee them in the head while using the stairs for their intended purpose.

    Babies can't tell time, I don't see why parents should bother.

    People who sit too close to the wheel while driving. This drives me bananas for some reason.

    Good example online - that "Shmeee" guy with the super high pitched "Hi I'm Shmee" intro in all his vids. That dude sits closer to the wheel than an 80 year old woman when he drives. That and his seat back is like a perfect 90 degrees vertical. I couldn't drive like that.

    Netflix has 5 seasons of it that literally go on for hours.

    My wife even found out she can turn it on in the car.

    Fuck. My. Life.

    Econ lesson from insurance adjuster:

    Market value: just because people are asking more for vehicles now and people are paying them for these cars, this isn’t the market value of the vehicle

    Um, but it is

    The important thing is it was just a thought exercise since I have the depreciation waiver… which is also kinda bullshit in today’s market since it’s based on what you paid for it and not current price of replacement vehicles
