Minor annoyances:

Why is it…

When you drop something in the kitchen, it always rolls under the refrigerator or stove?

Or in any room, something dropped always ends up in the most inaccessible corner in the room?

When you look for something in the junk drawer, it’s always in the back, making it necessary to empty out most of the contents to get to it?
Same with the freezer.

When you drop something in the car, it always ends up between the seats or rolls under the seat?

No matter how long you’ve had a ceiling fan, you always pull the fan chain when you wanted to turn on the light?

When the electricity goes out unexpectedly, it’s always during the last 10 minutes of the movie you were watching.

When you’re boiling potatoes they take forever to get to the boiling point, but if you walk away for 10 seconds, they boil over all over the stove?

So many more…
 

In grocery stores, those produce bags, on rolls which you can never open. And they are always out of those twist ties.
After filling your car, the gas that leaks out the hose onto the ground, which you PAID for.
At a red light, the guy Infront of you, who never seems to know the light has changed.
Drive through speaker systems. Grataveehti bbdhiohbc yuur ehb e
J.J. Walker & Joe Nameth.
That "Dr." with the "female" deodorant.
When you get all comfy in your favorite chair, the remote's always across the room.
By the time you remember the program you so wanted to see is on, the credits are rolling.

Folks! Y’all have been spying on my life!😂 I have what I call a “magnetic floor” . I go to reach for something and and the floor pulls it right down .
And pills, when a dear long ago kitty would be unusually cooperative taking his pill, I’d find same in a far corner days to weeks later.
 
It’s a sign of good mental health that we can laugh about these small annoyances that we all face. Too many people tend to see inconveniences as problems, and that can lead to trouble, or at least a perpetually agitated state. Life’s too short for that. Humor is a great defense against the slings and arrows of life… 😸

That is why my fans are on wall switches. One for light, one for fan. It works.

Up to a point. mine are also two separate switches. However... the fan has 3 speeds so I need to pull the chain occasionally, and there I am... in the dark again. :) Before anyone asks, I won't remove the light chain in case the wall switch should fail.
