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”

    You can’t expect scientific nuance from most people. They think in Lies to Children and remember the middle school eclipse demonstration with the lightbulb and rubber ball and that’s about it.

      Logically I know that of course.

      Friendly reminder, this is specifically a thread about petty and pedantic topics. I self-nominated as pedantic here.

        Oh and I both respect and encourage your pedantry, I’m in no way trying to dissuade you from your noble battle, just pointing out that your struggle will be against people who have zero grasp of the concept of albedo and are irrationally proud about that.
