    Nothing is wrong with you. You’re on autopilot. Ever spaced out and driven to the wrong place you normally drive to? I moved and then a few times I spaced out driving home from work and I drove to my old house that I don’t live at anymore. Didn’t realize it till I got there. Just autopilot. My mind was daydreaming the whole time

    What I find especially infuriating are the bathrooms with like 20 sinks with the hand motion activated faucets but only one soap dispenser which is a pump dispenser that you have to touch. Such inconsistency is annoying

    I have a fair bit of home automation setup at home. So if I walk into a room the lights turn on, walk out and they turn off.

    Every time I am visiting someone or in a hotel I am deeply confused why the lights don’t turn on themselves.

    I hate these automated taps. We’re supposed to stick our hands under them and sing happy birthday twice for properly clean hands and well… They are never on long enough for it to clean them.

    Honestly hate automated taps, that and the ones that only work if you push to the top down so you have to clean 1 hand at a time.

    Unfortunately you can’t trust people with normal twist taps because people suck… But dam do I miss the old cross handles. So easy to nudge it on with the back of your hand. Probably doesn’t help I am a clean freak tbf

    I feel this - I’m renting a house that has a motion sensor built into the kitchen sink. Now when I’m over someone else’s house, i can’t turn on the sink without giving a magical wave first like I’m some kind of wizard displaced in time.
