I was always amused by the fact that Hawai'i has an interstate.

Are you sure you didn't put them on back-to-front? :P

Of course I'm sure - I always mark the days of the week on the back of the waistband. ;)

I'm not sure if this is really a rant or just a disgusted observation. Anyway...

The other day in the grocery store I came across a product that just threw my brain for a loop. It was a can opener, but not just any can opener. It was a can opener designed to pop the pop top on pop top cans, basically it was a fucking hook with a pivot point.

Am I the only one who finds this just a bit ass backwards? We invent the can to store food. We invent can opener to get at food. We invent pop top can so that we don't need the can opener to get the food. We then invent a can open to open pop top cans.

WTF?

And just to prove how stupid marketing people believe we all are, the packaging contained a 5 step instruction on how to use the damn thing. The hell?

IDK, we live in a world in which instructions are required on toothpicks. Never underestimate the stupidity of your fellow man.
