For this specifically, "Traitorous Critic Fallacy". More broadly, an Ad Hominem argument.

My GTI had triple-square bolts for the seats. The bolts were maybe 1/2" diameter, and I was able to comfortably get a lot of torque on them. Weird design though, and can't imagine it holding up on smaller, softer screws

Self-driving car:

"Oh, I need to wait for this other car to pass me before I merge lanes. I'll just wait :)"

"Oh, I need to wait for this other car to pass me before I merge lanes. I'll just wait :)"

"Oh no! I'm right between two lanes and I can't move because the other cars are in the way :')"

"I'll just wait here with my hazard lights on until traffic clears up :)"

In my experience, the Mr. Clean ones hold up much better. Generic melamine sponges tear too easily.

But maybe I'm just getting the wrong generic ones. I've tried two or three different generic brands and they all sucked

I have a Mazda CX-5. The track seek buttons are counterintuitive IMO, and the Adaptive Cruise distance buttons are too.

Next track is UP, previous track is DOWN. Not like going down a list.

Adaptive Cruise control is UP to increase distance, DOWN to decrease. This seems like it would make sense, but I would prefer it the other way. UP to get closer, DOWN to pull back the distance

I totally get it. I think the whole Xbox vs PC vs PS thing has always been annoying. If you just want something simple and cost-effective that works well, you do you.

How am I supposed to carry my 40-count toilet paper pack for my big fat American ass? I'll have to use my daily commuter tractor trailer

I used to get really bad ingrown toenails, I had a podiatrist cut about 1/4 of that toenail out so it can't grow back in that spot. I don't remember it being very expensive at all. But this was 10 years ago

I will not take the rage bait, thank you very much

I almost found this out the hard way. I think on the Cisco equipment, it's something like: Hold for 2 seconds to cycle power. Hold for 5 seconds to wipe config.

Our IT guy nearly had a heart attack when, over the phone, I asked if I should press the little "Reset" on the back.

Cook your own dog? No child should ever have to do that. Dogs should be raw! And living!
