This is probably a lame rant, but it has been building up.
Whose bright idea is it to build home entertainment cabinets with the DVD/VCR compartments on the bottom, next to the floor? This might make sense if the DVD player buttons were larger than FREAKING KERNELS OF RICE and the button lettering was bigger than ONE MICRON. There’s nothing I love better before watching a movie than getting down on my hands and knees and trying to push the right button to eject the disc tray. “Let’s see, is it this one? Nope, that was power. Turned it off. This one? Bingo. Oops, the power’s off,” etc. Reading glasses don’t help - they don’t stay on when you are basically standing on your head! Maybe this wouldn’t have been an issue when I was 22, but now that I’m 46, rug burns on my knees don’t look sexy anymore.
