- Fitted sheet must have label on bottom right seam
- Salted butter wrapping text must be red. Unsalted blue.
All vehicles have an auto-sensor that detects when the steering mechanism is turned past a certain point and activates the fucking turn signal. Deactivates it once the steering mechanism returns past that point.
But the idea of an indicator is to indicate that you will soon turn the steering wheel, not that you’ve already started to turn it.
Better rule, if the vehicle detects that the turn signal is not active and you’re making a turn, it engages temporary self driving and delivers an electric shock to the crotch .
Good rules!
Bottom right = standing or lying? Tag should be on flat also and must tell the bed size.
I think my butters are opposite colors.
It may seem slightly above inconsequential, but parking. Parking is a great example of arbitrary rules having longstanding effects. (Really neat video on parking regulations - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUNXFHpUhu8)
As for more inconsequential. Leafblowers Leafblowers immediately banned unless they are

These people are usually the sorts who rise at 5am regardless of day and have become bored after 3 hours awake. If they think about it at all, they believe that everyone who is not yet up by 8am is a fool who ought to be out of bed, thus that is the perfect time to make noise.
As to why they rise at 5am, take your pick from: i) Old and unable to sleep for long periods - Will be asleep again in an armchair by 11am once they’ve gone back inside; ii) Military bearing or wannabe - Probably has reveille.wav for an alarm; iii) Abject a-hole who gets a kick out of it. Honourable mention: iv) someone with no choice under direction from one of the above.
You forgot v) collaborates internationally for work, requiring them to be awake early to maximize overlapping hours in their workday.
But even I know not to do noisy shit outside until at least 10. Those few quiet hours in the morning where it seems I’m the only person alive are to drink coffee and cherish.
I’m guilty of 8am yardwork, but mostly mowing in the hottest part of summer at the coolest part of the day. I’m also guilty of 8pm yardwork when it’s just the only time I can find to get it done. I only mow once every 2-4 weeks depending on how much my grass has grown, so I figure that balances it out somewhat

Those yellow bump things for blind people. They need to follow a spec that then in turn cart manufacturers, wheelchair manufacturers, and wagon cart manufacturers all build around so that when I travel over them they don’t jostle my whole cart around and tip over my drink.
- Loading dishwashers properly requires an official government license and a test.
- Putting a flat plate in front of a bowl means a year of hard labor.
- Loading any of the good kitchen knives is an automatic 10 years.
I absolutely agree with you. My former flatmate didn’t like to use the dishwasher because according to her, it wouldn’t clean the dishes properly. Yet she would load the dishwasher by stacking the plates horizontally… as you would store them in a cupboard
