Things that go wrong for you on a regular basis

For me it’s toilets. Without fail about every three months something’s wrong with a toilet in the house or even at a hotel we stay at. Toilet handle broken. Keeps running. Chain breaks on the flushing mechanism. Toilet seat loose. I’m not fat.
Many times we’ve checked into a hotel and the toilet doesn’t work.

There is some odd curse hanging over my head dealing with toilets.

Used to be tires all the time. Low air pressure, flats, nails, etc. But the tire deal has gotten better.

My tires are magnets for nails, rifle shell casings, etc. They usually hit my side wall too.

Ordering something from Lowes or Home Depot. Probably the last 3-4 things I've ordered online for pickup have ended up being unavailable or the box had been opened, stolen out of, and returned.

Using American Airlines when I fly.

Without fail, my flight will be delayed for hours. And it will be because of a crew time out or scheduling issue.

I've had to replace 3 tires (not due to negligence) with approximately 15K miles on them. All nails or screws were in the sidewall and deemed not repairable.

Fortunately, I opted to buy roadside hazard which allows me to replace the tire for $50.00 each (deductible).

This is a win for me because I am never one to buy any extra protection or insurance, but in this case, I did --- and I will from here on out (on tires, mainly because of our roads in Louisiana).

End up in the slowest checkout lane every single time. It never fails.

Getting into the proper lane when traffic is congested. You know the scene from office space? Every time.

Not 100% on topic, but Hail. If it hails anywhere around here, I’ll be in the thick of it. 3 roofs in the past 7 years, one car totaled, 3 of our family cars currently have hail damage but we aren’t filing claims yet because it’s only April, more to come..

It is definitely tires for me. My bass boat trailer tires have at least five plugs in them.
