Little things that bother you. OCD or poor design?

Yesterday I saw a 2023 Ford raptor R, that is the V8 one with 37 inch tires that costs over $100,000. They have dual exhaust. The right pipe was visibly several inches lower than the left pipe. It was driving me insane to drive behind it.

Meh, a steel header can solve anything.

My favorite is when you tell people their reticle is canted and you get some version of “always worked for me” or “looks straight to me”. No one ever likes hearing my response to that.

So we're in the middle of the remodel, started with the top and working my way down (disregard the awful deck and vinyl siding). I put up temporary fascia and flashings so I could hang a temporary gutter to keep the water off the three new windows. The temporary fascia is OSB scraps that I had laying around, they were already going in the trash and they will after I take it back off, they're totally temporary...but the UNPAINTED one on the end doesn't match the other pieces!!!! It drives me absolutely bonkers.

I always leave one open, just an inch or two, drives my wife nuts

all the screws on my light switches and plug ins all have to lined up facing 12/6. I know because I just replaced every one in my house after we painted. Over 75 of them

The open gable with the center post makes me twitch. I think if it was sheeted in I'd be fine with it.

What design flaws trigger you?

I’m no engineer but how is that even a thing? Wouldn’t the load need to be transferred down to a footer?

That’s a hate crime

I was talking about Sheeting the Gable end so you couldn't see the Center post.
Alternatively have steps along the whole front, a bigger header and eliminate the "middle" post on porch.
