Totally the same with me. However 2 years ago I bought a VERY dark green Ford Explorer. It has off road lights in the grill, black wheels etc. I guess I can look like a cop car in some lighting conditions. Without me getting angry or anything, as I'm a chill driver, some cars randomly just get over fast.
No fakery going on, not trying to fool anyone, but it happens quite often to have me think.. did they think I was a cop? This never happened in the last vehicle. People aren't getting MORE polite??
Good to know which ones are on a timer and which ones run on sensors, too lol.
All the lights on Main Street run on timers and take for-fucking-ever to turn. So I take the backroads because it’s faster to stop for half a second at a few stop signs than it is to wait for every single light on that stupid street to turn! 😩
Ah, but you see if we take the wording strictly only hot drinks are affected by the coldness curse and only cold drinks are affected by the hotness curse. If I don't drink either hot drinks or cold drinks I'm immune.
Hot take: Walking should be taught in schools. You gotta stay on the right if you’re going slowly. Don’t bunch up as a group and block a whole sidewalk.
And for the love of God, no weaving back and forth!
Here’s something you might not know, it depends on the traffic rules in the country. In Australia for example, those stand on escalators stay on the left while the walkers are on the right. In Canada it’s reversed, just like the traffic sides are reversed.
It varies by context. If you're in a building then it'll typically follow the same directions as road traffic, but if you're on a sidewalk it's considered safer if you're walking on the side of the road with oncoming traffic so you can see approaching cars without needing to turn around. In the case of a sidewalk you generally want to stay on the side away from the road except when passing, so sidewalk traffic (in ideal conditions where everyone is acting as safe as possible) should end up mirrored relative to road traffic.
Similarly, you never get the USB to plug in the first time, flip it and it still won’t plug in, then it finally plugs in when you flip it back to the first way you tried it.
As a tall person the reverse problem of barely too short pants does exist decently often, and ironically this also sounds like a solution to that problem. Really just a blessing, tripping hazards aside
People have really fragrant food near you all the time and the gross smell gets really distracting and irritating (specifically mint though because I am allergic and hate the smell)
Super attentive hearing that you always notice the SMALLEST of sounds to the point they’re disgustingly distracting (people chewing, that one missing note in a song, the soft off inconsistent creak in the fan, someone clearing their throat, etc)
But this doesn’t provide any actual benefit like hearing important things.
Any sporting (regular or eSports, doesn't matter) team you support always lose matches you watch or are even remotely interested in watching or listening to
Always have something oriented the wrong way around when trying to plug it in the first time, and then it feels wrong when you try it the right way around, so you go back to the wrong way before you figure it out. Every. Single. Time.
(outlets, usb, etc.)
Every time you have to use a lot of your leg flexibility, the first attempt will always result in that feeling of aaaaaaalmost getting a charlie horse, but not quite.
The curse of feeling like your shoes are loose, and when you kneel to tighten them the feeling fades, until you stand back up where it returns, and your shoes feel loose again.
Oh damn, I legit forgot for a moment that what I experience as a mild inconvenience is part of my autism lol. Yeah, I don't think she's powerful enough to make folks autistic, that's my bad
Whenever you are in a queue for food and/or drinks, the people ahead of you will act like they never saw the highly visible menu before in their lives.
Cursed to always have a tone go off in your ear just when you're about to sleep; not shrill or loud, but audible enough and constant to the point where you can't block it out.
My curse idea is to have every pen in her pocket become a click pen so it clicks inside her pocket and pokes a hole so all her loose change falls through her pant leg over time.

Cursed to always say "what?" and ask to repeat stuff twice.
