I thought I was being clever buying wallpaper while I had the money for it, but I didn't think of the return period so I can't return the excess roll. 50 quid I'll never see again! Please share your gripe with me

People who shamble off the top of an escalator slowly while the machinery behind them shoves more people at them.

I forgot my USB dock when travelling so I had to get a USB-A to USB-C adapter to be able to use my mouse. Definitely minor.

I took my macbook on holiday along with a bunch of movies to watch on USB stick.

Didn't take my dongle. Couldn't watch any movies.

I'm not a Mac user (and don't know any Mac users) so ... what's a "dongle" in this context?

Well in this case I meant closer to a hub, but something that converts the USB-C ports on the mac to other ports, including USB-A for the flash drive.

I left that at home, so I was unable to plug the flash drive in.

Dongle itself is a kinda broad catch-all term https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dongle
