For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don't want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That's ludicrous!

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use "less" when they should use "fewer"

The use of "whenever" in place of "when" has been on the rise and it drives me insane. It makes you sound fucking stupid.

Never playing games online unless it's something like an MMORPG like Dofus or Wakfu where interacting with others is completely optional, or unless with a friend. Rule applies to almost every single game I play besides Krosmaga.

By the time I become somewhat decent at a game, I can already guarantee I'll be consistently paired up with either hackers or people way above my skill grade. Then it'll drain all the fun. Same reason why back in highschool I only ever really played games like CS:GO with my friend and haven't touched them pretty much at all in my free time.

replace 'I purchased ...' with 'I bought ...'. Just something about the p word grates my nerves.. Suspect it's something like using the word 'moist' for some people. probably some forgotten trauma over something I bought.
