Faucets that are so short that you can’t fit both hands under them without touching the back of the sink. It’s so infuriating how common this is. I have to contort my hands to use them.
Bonus: faucets (most common in public parks and such) that are push-activated and last only one or two seconds. Clearly not designed for proper hand washing.
#2
Toys that only have one volume: EXTREMELY LOUD!!!!
Whoever makes these does not have kids of their own.

If you’re short and left-handed, pretty much everything. Scissors. Grocery aisles. Kitchen cabinets. Pants. knives and forks. Over-the-stove microwave ovens. There is no end …
#4
Any device that typically belongs in a bedroom that has an always-on LED. I don’t need to see the LED at all times when I am sleeping.
#5
Pots with handles that get burning hot when you heat the pot.
#6
All of the «tear here» markings on coffee packs, juice cartons, etc., mark the strongest/most tear-resistant part of the package.
#7
Sanitary pads
Especially ones advertised as “zero bunching” – they most certainly do a bunch. They will go straight up your bum crack. They can only have been designed by someone who doesn’t use them to have made that claim

The word “Latino” is a gender-neutral way to refer to Latinos.
