I loved this read, even if I was targeted from the outset! A couple of mine:

- Hostile mergers are the worst, but so are people who merge early when a lane is ending. Zipper!

- Temple garments should be free.

- (I know this one will get under your skin) Try as I might, I can’t manage to get into Seinfeld. It seems like a fine show, but has an overblown spot in our cultural pantheon.

- There’s rarely a time when you should wear a shirt and tie without a jacket. It always looks better with a finishing top layer. It’s better to wear a jacket and no tie than a tie and no jacket. Of course I willingly ignore this one almost every Sunday these days, kids with messy fingers can cause a lot of damage to dry-clean-only jackets haha.

Bonus hot take: we should do away with men’s/women’s bathrooms. Just have stalls with floor to ceiling walls that open up into a communal sink area.

These were hilarious! (And some were mildly infuriating, but that's a hot take for you!) Here are a couple of mine:

1) Popping your knuckles (or neck, back, etc.) is indecent and shouldn't be done in public.

2) Being "bad at learning names" is an attitude problem. People could learn names if they tried harder.

There are a few proving unpopular in the polls lol. I am a serial knuckle popper! Not learning names - that’s a great one.
