Proctologists hate things without a flared base.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but not this way!"

Software engineers hate MBAs. It's like they live in a fantasy world where everything works perfectly and can be done in 3 days and can read your mind.

That's why those fuckers love LLMs so much. They don't understand anything remotely technical, and it makes them believe they can just cut out the grumpy, uncooperative middleman and push shit code in production they are unable to audit.

ENTs hate Q-tips?!

I, a warehouse worker, hate OXO for slapping every warning label under the sun on their boxes. I saw a box of oven mitts labeled "fragile" along with like five other warnings. Not even a one size fits all box either, this had custom printing for the product.

Also Crown for making equipment that is so ineptly fly-by-wire there is what feels like half a second delay between input and response.

Structural engineers: fire, water, air and earth. They are like the Anti-Avatar

I know q-tips aren't safe or whatever but man it feels too good to stop.

Eye doctors hate bungee cords. Be careful with those! ER doctors hate 4th of July.

ER Docters hate

  • "well it started 6 months ago.... And since then it is more or less present" -> why are you here?
  • everything firework related -> you really thought it would be cool to make a firework bomb?
  • old people that are dropped by family members on a Friday night and claim the maggots just appeared like 10 minutes ago -> really?
  • people who, after a complete workup expect miracles -> really?
  • (drug induced) aggression -> look I am trying to help you here dude
  • recurrent psychiatric patients that are not treated properly or untreatable -> hey you again, same medication? Wow you were here 7 hours ago...

.... I think the list might go on and on
