Signs are important. Like "You still have 2 more free deliveries" on Instacart, which encouraged me to do absolutely nothing on Saturday and order in what I needed (wanted). I think that a welcome mat that simply says FAFO would be useful. I'm sure it's on Etsy. But I love that the person you met on the restroom trail would rather take the word of GPS over a human. Some folks love the hard way. xo
I have an issue with two-dimensional arrows trying to convey three-dimensional information. If I see an arrow pointing up, I start up the staircase while everyone walks straight ahead. It makes me think that I'm missing a part of the brain that everyone else seems to have... the ability to interpret something that seemingly makes no sense (an arrow pointing perpendicular to the correct direction) into a route that gets them to where they want to go. With our current system, why can't a down arrow mean straight ahead? It's just as accurate. An arrow pointing in literally any direction would be just as accurate. I fantasize about airports switching to a three-dimensional arrow system. Or at the very least, using the system that I learned in college... x's and o's denoting a direction into or out of the page. (The symbol ⊙ means out of the page and the symbol ⊗ means into the page.) If it weren't for Andi I'd miss my connection. I also have trouble with 'lefty loose-y'. Should the top go to the left or the bottom? No matter which way you turn, it goes left and right. All I can remember is that 'loose-y' means the same motion as opening a beer. My parents thought I maybe had some issues.
Ah the beer short cut! I also have a problem with the painted words on the street that assume you read the first one you drive to before the other. Even though we read from top to bottom. Down slow. No. No.
Again, with laugh-out-loud- bits of humor, you layer your ideas. At the end, we've been led somewhere profound!!!
