Methinks my disregard for Reddit is not helping me with context here...

It's amazing these people can even get themselves dressed in the morning.

I will say though, in my experience women tend to be worse with left-right confusion, especially with mirroring. It doesn't seem to be strictly an intelligence thing....but in this case.

Lol I saw that too. Why are so many women so bad at driving?

 

[swag]

I take it HMC is the female gendered version of HMB?

Well, if you can pull off a halter top, who needs a brain?

there’s usually an arrow by your gas meter that points to the side of the car it’s on, but most people don’t know this

Yes it's one of those quirky things a lot of people know but many don't. Then by about the third time you fill up you don't really need to think about it.

I dunno, cars have gotten a lot more complicated. A few years ago my wife and I rented a car to head down to Joshua Tree. If you don't know, it's in the desert pretty much in the middle of nowhere. So we stop in Barstow, CA on the way there for some Mexican food as sort of a last bit of civilization before heading in.

The parking lot is filled with people in rental cars -- people who can't unlock their trunks, people who can't figure out how to trigger the ignition on their cars, people who can't get around the safety locks on the rear windows, etc. It was a circus. New cars have too many non-standardized technology features that the average schmuck hasn't a clue as to how to operate them anymore.

Unless you're doubling back to check the guy you just ran over.

But that seems like a pretty limited application to call it standard equipment nowadays.

Often it's just about common sense. First time I had a car where I had to engage the clutch alongside the ignition to start the engine - 20 seconds of messing about I noticed the dash screen actually told me what to do. Then you have keyless motion, same thing. Modern cars have all these messages and diagnostics, it's just that people are either too daft or lazy to take a minute to understand something.

I do agree with more standardisation, there shouldn't be so many different ways to open compartments.

A lot is standardization, IMO. Depending on the vehicle, there's like 4 different kinds of ignitions, three places to put the gas cap, seven places to look where you can open a gas cap, six locations to find the headlight switch, etc.

People literally just love to complain. Why doesn’t she say anything about stadiums and arenas looking like vaginas? Or is that how patriarchy designed them so they can demean women? You can make up anything you want if you look at something hard enough.
