    Doors that can only be pushed with pull handles on them

    Yep, so simple to fix too.

    Crank Bros headsets. The idea – bearings integrated into the cups is actually a pretty good one but the implementation – loose bearings with no sealing that you cant regrease because they are integrated into the cup, is crap.

    Any Mini other than the “normal” mini. Its like the designers are having a competition with themselves to see just how ugly a car they can make that people will still buy.

    The Titanic

    The Titanic was actually quite a good design. It suffered massive damage yet it sunk slowly and just about upright.

    The problem was that the owners, not the Naval Architects, reduced the number of lifeboats originally specced, to increase deck space for the passengers. Also, the lifeboats davits were of a new design which could lower fully laden lifeboats from the boat deck. However, it seemed the deck officers were not aware or did not trust them, as a lot of boats were lowered half empty.

    If the ship had had the original number of boats, they had been fully laden and the evacuation had commenced when they first realised the extent of the damage, then very few people would of died and most would of been picked up the next morning. The Titanic would not of become the legend that it is now.

    Just saying like.

    This monstrosity….

    Hideous! And specifically designed to bring the M60 traffic to a standstill, as herds of dismal, bovine ****-tards stampede towards it, as they’re so terminally unimaginative that they regard shopping as a leisure activity

    Ta-da! the Aylesbury County Offices. Although, because of the bleak appearance, they’ve kind of grown on me in a post apocalyptic evil mastermind hold up kind of place.

    Looks a bit like the front of the spaceships from Independence Day too…
