Inanimate objects which are pricks

Public EV chargers are prick-cousins to parking meters. The kicker being that many of them don't even have a way of just paying for a charge, you have to download a specific app, register for the service, validate your card and THEN find there's a fault with the charger. JUST PUT A CARD READER ON THERE AND LET ME PAY FOR SOME ELECTRONS.

Kitchen scales, it really shouldn't be that difficult. Put it on a flat surface, turn it on = ERROR. Pick it up, put it back down in exactly the same place and it works. Cycle through the settings to find grams, zero it again because it has somehow found 30 grams of air to weigh in the last few seconds. Try to weigh item but its turned itself off, turn it back on = ERROR, repeat until I am tempted to lob it at the wall and guess how much flour I need.

Toilet Seats that won't stay up are annoying. But soft close toilet seats that let you to think they are going to stay put are pricks

Save As dialogs that force you to navigate back to the folder you opened the file in, in the first place. The very same dialogs that don't include the folder you opened the file in, in the recent list. Massive pricks!!!

Inow put a X on in pen showing ‘Up’ on all my USB’s

That might work until you hit an AudioPro speaker. The bastards have theirs in upside down.

USBs... pretty sure all my USB-As have a USB symbol on the “up” side...
The some twit at Sennheiser decides, "Ah, poor little 'down' side. You deserve a badge too. Infact, that would be a great place for my logo, (a hifty bit of free advertising for... [another version of the product you already own])".
T'Dar! To every typical middle aged person, with typical short sightedness... Both sides; inde-flippin-stingiusable from each other. #the procks that make inanimate objects look like procks

Yes - 'up' relative to what? I have to transfer files between a PC laptop and my CNC machine with a thumb drive. The ports on the two machines are different ways up - which ones upside down?. The ones on the back of my iMac are sides ways - so is 'up' left or right?

Anything that you inadvertently rap your knuckles on in the cold.

Yesterday was the bumper of the van when replacing a damaged door holder thingy.

Absolute unrepentant bag of dicks of a thing.
