Gotta turn it 3 times, regardless of starting orientation, as is tradition.

The USB paradox!

It's a Schrödinger port, you first have to collapse the superpisition by observation. It cannot be inserted until you look at it.

Or they have a spin of 3/2.

1: Oh dang let me flip it around.
2: What the hell!? WHY!!!
3: Oh that’s just great. Thanks a lot you cheeky USB connection.

Thats perfect for people with weak or injured wrists. Just attempt port 1-2-1 instead of turning USB side up-down-up!

That's the power of positive thinking!

Works great until you want to leave a peripheral plugged in and still use one of the other ports.

Wow that's awful. /c/AssholeDesign would appreciate this.

BadUIbattles would feel embarrassed for the lack of creativity after seeing this

I know we all love to make fun of this, but ever since someone pointed out to me that the plastic bar of the USB port is adjacent to the PCB/circuitboard - I’ve been able to plug the suckers in pretty much first try.

But THIS monstrosity on the other hand, is beyond explanation.

Fuck off, Satan.

A truly evil person would stick an HDMI port in there among them. Or perhaps a power-only USB port.

No, ethernet. Has to be similar enough shape to allow you to push the connector in
