    As someone with a set of the common tools, I hate how everything comes with shitty tools, just adding more weight and waste. Like even fucking replacement batteries for console controllers came with a little screwdriver.

    And I bet it’s all because of those shitty customers that complain about stupid shit like “I don’t have the correct tools to use this thing I ordered” and enabling managers that bend over backwards instead of just saying “go to your hardware store and buy a fucking tool” or “look in a mirror” and hanging up on them.

    Like how do you even function as a competent adult without some basic tools? Do you just accept that this door with a loose hinge is a pain to close? That this knob or handle just wobbles? That the handle on that shitty pot or pan might just come off as you try to lift the boiling water or even hotter oil inside it, or are pots and pans just too complicated in the first place?

    Or is that why people have so many financial issues because the moment something needs some maintenance, it’s time to call someone or toss it into the trash and buy a new one?
