One of mine (I have many yay neurodivergece) is when people say the phrase "a broken clock is right twice a day". The phrase is actually "a stopped clock is right twice a day." A clock that is stopped will definitely be right twice a day but a clock that is broken could be right multiple times a day or not at all depending on how it's broken. Maybe it's just a little slow running in which case it'll never be right. Maybe it's spinning wildly out of control so it'll be right a lot but still useless.

It annoys the shit outta me and it is so dumb it definitely should not. Anyway your turn.

Ugh just generally people who have no understanding of "people need to get on and off this train/bus regardless of when you are getting off the train" are the worst. Wait to the side of the door to let people off, then get on, then get outta the way, then move towards the door when it's your turn to get off and everyone else get the fuck outta the way so people can get on and off it IS NOT COMPLICATED monke-rage
