I do. That's why my wife goes to the drive through now, and I stay home watching the jazz game. And I give her all kinds of crazy instructions for fun.

Yeah, you might be right.

But there are times when I don't mind or I might even offer since I'm going to stop for myself. The whole vague order thing is what irritates me. I talked to my wife after this last time, after having felt like it has been obvious that I want an exact order in the past, telling her that if she wants me to pick food up she needs to give me the exact menu items that she wants.
 
Website forms that have the fields like name, address, phone, etc., labeled INSIDE the field instead of outside. That makes Chrome autocomplete completely ineffective because I can't trust that the autocompleted fields got filled in with the right info and have to manually check every single field to see what was supposed to go there.

I was just busting chops. I’d be annoyed too. I’d just bluntly say, “Look at the menu and text me what you want. Text me a 1b too in case they don’t have it.”

Being told to "do your research" by idiots who know far less about the subject their spouting off about than your average door knob.

I think I've decided I'm going to delete my facebook account. Last night I cleared out my friends list to people I either like and/or actually consider friends, people who post things I enjoy reading and close family members. I'm down to 36 "friends" on facebook. I'm thinking that will be the first step towards just getting off that platform.

I think facebook has made the world a significantly worse place in many many ways.
