For awhile during high school, I drove an older yellow Dodge
pickup. A guy I knew as a friend of a friend drove an identical
pickup. Our door keys would work in both doors, but thankfully,
the ignition keys were different.

That brought back a memory - in HS I drove a green Impala. I
worked at a grocery store and jumped into my car and couldn't
get it to start, I also felt like I was sitting really low.
Turns out it wasn't my green Impala. And didn't have my pillow
to sit me up higher. I unlocked it with my door key, but my
ignition key wouldn't work, thankfully.

We might be dating ourselves. Some "youngsters" have not
experienced seperate keys for the doors and ignition.

My problem has developed because of our wonderous technology!
Many sink faucets, soap dispensers and paper towel dispensers
are now activated by simply waving your hands under the unit.
So it's very disconcerting when I have spent at least 30 seconds
waving my hands under a faucet and there's no water is coming
out, wondering if it's broken, then realizing that this sink has
a regular tap that requires me to manually turn the knob with my
hands.

What gets me is when 2 out of 3 are automatic but the third one
isn't. That's when the stupid comes out strong.

My sister and I used to drive identical Honda Civics. Tiny gray
hatchbacks. One time I was at a person's house (I was looking
at her car) and my sister came to check it out with me. She
arrived later than I did, and parked behind my car. When I saw
her, she pointed to the curb and said, 'Look! It spawned!'

A chap almost got into my car the other day. The funny thing was
that the car that was his was a different colour.
My stupid thing today was hitting my glasses accidentally and
bending the frame. These stupid things have been nothing but
trouble since I got them so it’s really annoying. I expect I’ll
have to buy new frames. Grrr

I recently found myself trying to use a "swipe" motion to turn
the page in a paper book I was reading, like it was an ereader.

Once after a long day at work, I tried to use my garage door
opener to get out of the office parking garage.

Sometimes I forget I'm watching a tv show on Hulu, and I wonder
why my remote isn't changing the cable channel.

I find myself trying to make text and pictures bigger in paper
books and magazines.

I find myself being frustrated that I can't rewind my car radio
like I can my television.

Or I forget I'm watching live TV and can't fast forward through
the commercials!
