My dad bought a new iphone, my stepmum assumed that it would need a new headphone adapter so she bought one, when my dad tried to fit it, they figured out that the headphones that my dad already had were already the right fit. Their immediate reaction was “send it back”, in such an easy tone that I assume they do this kind of thing regularly. There’s clearly nothing wrong with the item, but it’s now been opened and ever so slightly used.
On this issue:
- My parents are jerks
- My parents are not jerks.

You’re driving somewhere, and your route takes you past a school. It’s morning, so parents are arriving at the school to drop off their kids. The vehicle in front of you is driven by one of those parents, and they need to turn right into the school’s driveway. However, instead of making the turn, they come to a complete stop and wave for a car coming from the other direction that was waiting to turn left into the same driveway to go ahead of them. How do you feel about this driver?
If it matters to you, this is on a small residential street, not a major thoroughfare. And the driver had plenty of room to complete the turn; there was no line of cars backed up to the street or anything. In other words there was no other reason for them to stop.
- The driver is being polite by letting that other car go first.
- The driver is being rude by blocking the traffic behind them and/or not following established right of way rules.
- I feel neutral about this driver / something else / other

I got a takeout order from a Mexican place and took it to a busy park to eat and relax. When I got there, I found in my bag a burrito that I had neither ordered nor paid for. I almost certainly won’t eat it myself (I’m a picky eater; I haven’t even looked at it to see what’s in it). It seems like a waste to toss it, so…
Would you accept an uneaten, wrapped burrito from a total stranger?
- Yes!! Free burrito!
- No! Are you kidding?!
- Depending on the circumstances, there’s a nonzero chance I might take it.
