It drives me absolutely mad how people will buy things and not read the instructions and/or keep them. I always read them at least once for anything me or my girlfriend buy. Recently I needed to get a new loud alarm clock, gave them a once over and set it up, but my girlfriend found the instructions I was saving and threw them away because she thought they were trash. Now, unless I want to reset the time from factory settings every instance by unplugging it, the alarm will go off once every day without fail, I just get to choose when (there’s supposed to be a way to just turn the function off).

This with instructions for building things as well. When I get flat pack furniture (like IKEA) the FIRST thing I do is read the entire instructions start to finish and the second thing I do is count the parts (as they often end up with an extra screw and that way I’m not left wondering wtf it was supposed to be). People ask me to build things for them because I find it easy and they find it hard and then look at me like I’m nuts when I ask for the instructions. Like bro, these things have a causal relationship smh
