Writing the entire text of the email in the subject line.

At least it's better than a clickbait subject line.

How is that possible if there is no content in the actual email?

AKA people who have zero email etiquette.

Or can't distinguish when an email is appropriate and when it's more appropriate to send a whatsapp or a text. Talking of which, the same applies to people who send lengthy whatsapp messages.

Inadequate or non-existent storm drains in Israel, paired with inadequately pitched roads. >:(

Spot on.

That's why we buy a flat pair before leaving the store

Indeed.

Ian's knot is one of the most practical things I've learned about through DDF. It affects me every single day! Takes a bit of time to get used to, but once you do, you won't understand how anyone doesn't use it, or how you lived so long tying your shoes any other way.

That's why you wear lace less shoes

That's what I do when I have them. But I change it to flat laces eventually.

Funny thing is I actually just learnt how to do it last week! I've seen videos of it a while back, just never actually learnt how to do it until now. And I never knew it's called an Ian's knot. But it still has the same problem of untying.

I find that slip on shoes stretch out eventually and are more of a slip off type of shoe than slip on.
