• I am a weirdo and always get things backwards that the rest of the population has no trouble with.

    Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey made no sense when I was a kid because I focused on the bottom of the thing I was spinning instead of the top.

    Same with the stove. Wtf is the “front” burner? I mapped the four burners to the four seats of a car in my head, and I thought the front burner would be the ones farther away from me. 🫨

      That’s absolutely right, but you forgot to account for the fact that the stove doesn’t face the same way you do, you’re facing it and it is facing you, like a head on car collision
