I've got two off the top of my head:

First is that the design of the USB drives needing to be oriented up or down was the result of a minor cost cutting choice. The inventor regrets it because it wouldn't been easy made so that USB drives were reversible.

Second is the abundance of pointless SEO stuff on recipe pages. It would be a cool opportunity for the creator to add a personal touch to the recipe page beneath the recipe, but they pop in first along with ads and suggested links. And they're so frustrating to navigate that they had to incorporate a 'jump to recipe' button.

I feel this too.

There's a lot of "if you don't like X don't buy X, simple" reddit-logo brainworms excuses out there, and none of them change the fact that I still have to have that distracting obnoxious deliberately-anxiety-inducing noise everywhere I go.
