Is It Acceptable To Just Throw My Hands Up And Say "Pizza Every Night" Because This Whole Cooking And Them Not Eating Thing Is Stressful Lol

For a while, seat belts, because auto executives thought it implied the car was unsafe.

Removable batteries on smartphones. People couldn't handle the "cHeAp PlAsTiC" on a phone they were putting a case on anyway. As a result, we can't change the batteries in smartphones anymore.

There was a lottery ticket scratch off that had a temperature listed on it. You would scratch off to reveal your own temperature, and if it was colder than the listed one, you win. Pretty simple, right? It failed because people don’t understand negative numbers. People called in claiming that they “won” because -6 is “colder” than -8. It is not. The ticket was ultimately discontinued.Show All 14 Upvotes

Because A Foreign Word Was Too Similar To A Racial Slur In English
>Professor Greg Patton at the University of Southern California (USC) was telling students in a communications lecture last month about filler, or pause words, such as 'err', 'umm' or 'you know' in English. > >Footage of his lecture, which has now gone viral, shows Prof Patton saying: "In China, the common pause word is 'that, that, that'. So in China, it might be na-ge, na-ge, na-ge." > >Enunciated, na-ge sounds like the N-word, which led several of the professor's students to complain to the university. Responding to the complaint, the dean of the university, Geoffrey Garrett, told students that Prof Patton would no longer be teaching the course. > >"It is simply unacceptable for the faculty to use words in class that can marginalize, hurt and harm the psychological safety of our students," he said. > >The university says that Prof Patton "volunteered to step away" from his role amid the investigation into complaints made against him. This is the stupidest thing to get offended over that I've seen in quite a while. And damaging to actual cases of racist terminology being used inappropriately.
Because They Called Their Brother 'Bro'
Had someone get offended by me calling my brother "bro". They insisted that I was racist and that white people can't be related to Mexicans. Like seriously lady. That's not how genetics work. We are 100% related and are a mix of white and Native American. Its not that unheard of for one biological sibling to come out lighter or darker than the other. And even if we weren't related... Seriously? I'm racist for calling someone close to me my bro despite being different skin tones? Seriously? Thank you for coming to my rant session. Have a good day.
