I have three different ways I write the number “2” and I never know which I’m going to use until I get there.

How about tasks that should be simple but THEY make difficult. Like changing headlights but before you can squeeze your hand into the little spot you have to take out half the stuff under the hood to get to it.

I think he means cutting the wrong side of the wood, not the degree of the angle.

Fitted sheets are my arch nemesis....folding them....putting them on....

I'll start putting on one and see that I've got the sides wrong so I'll rotate the thing 90 degrees and somehow it is still wrong.


I have the solution to fitted sheets. Take the sheets off bed, wash them, put sheets back on bed. My wife will swap them out with a set from the closet.

I dont care if the bed is unmade for an hour but it pisses her off.

And figuring out the direction of the fitted sheet is usually the tag goes at the bottom right end of mattress. Now all you have to do it remember where it goes.

Cutting a damn 45 degree angle on my miter saw.


You should give crown molding a try. For me it's running a clean caulk line. I'm terrible at it.

Me too. It always involves cussing.

Parking straight. When I started driving, I was an ace parker and a crap driver. Now I seem to have to adjust every time I park, despite always backing in and use of camera. But I'm a better driver now.

My dad (RIP) could fold a fitted sheet so flat you couldn't tell the difference between the flat sheet and the fitted sheet. I think it was all that time he spent in the Seabees and later in the USMC. Man could make a bed with hospital corners too....

Taking off wiper blades gives me all kinds of trouble for some reason. When I put the new ones on with no trouble at all I’m at a loss why it was so difficult to get the old ones off.


I hate to break some engineering news on you, but it may make you feel better that they're designed to go on and stay on. That explains both ends of your experience.

I’ve got this down pat. I undo my wife’s as I pass her for s and g’s.

But those plastic vegetable bags at the grocery store make me doubt my motor skills. By the time I get one open there are several torn on the ground.

Just like throwing a football...lick your fingers first for better grip. It was a bitch wearing a mask and we weren't supposed to do that. Luckily for me, my son has sweaty hands...

I swear my dick has a mind of its own. I have put it back in my pants and quickly yanked it back out to be sure it doesn’t drip. Then as soon as I think I’m in the clear and put it back in it drips. fricker

Opening or cutting into packaging that has a hard plastic bubble shell. I’m pretty sure I’m going to bleed somehow or another before it’s over.
