@downey The carbrained entitlement in the comments is extraordinary.

I don't know why so many cars drive through my block and create noise pollution but I suspect it's because Google and Apple tell them to. I can see these drivers don't live on the block because I can see them come from arterial roads and drive through to another arterial road without stopping on the block.

I didn't understand why sliced bread was the greatest thing until I started baking my own bread and having to slice it myself.
