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.

    The worst is when you say excuse me but they’re so absorbed in what they’re doing that they don’t even acknowledge your presence. And then you find a way by them anyway and they startle. Like bro YOU CHOSE TO BE OUT IN PUBLIC you gotta deal with the fact that other people are out there too!
