Life's great mysteries (things that make NO sense)

[QUOTE="some bloke, post: 6499094, member: 654906"] This is an open discussion for people to voice their thoughts on things which just make no sense to them. And for others to possibly elucidate for them to help them understand. I'll open with this: Touch screens in cars. Who decided that this was a good idea? Particularly when the touch screen also controls the radio? Case one: old fashioned car. I want to turn the volume up, so I reach over until I feel the volume knob, and I turn it, all whilst avoiding someone who just stepped out into the road. Case two: modern car. I want to turn the volume up, so I look over to my touch screen, which has no haptic feedback so I have no idea what I'm pressing unless I look, and I press the button for the volume to go up, and there's a loud thud as somebody hurtles over the bonnet because I'm looking at the screen for my radio and didn't see them. Just why? what was wrong with controls you can operate without looking? who decided that a RADIO needed to have a SCREEN? do you know what you call a radio with a screen? a Television. So, what is it in this world that makes absolutely no sense to you? [/QUOTE]
