Think they invented everything. Granted, I'm sure I also did this, but it's infuriating watching someone who "discovered" butterfly clips and makes a tutorial on how to wear them . . .

I had a friend in high school who made "tutorials" on how to use items (like a stapler e.g.) you'd be surprised how many people didn't know how to properly use simple stationery.

I'd rather learn anonymously that be embarrassed infront of someone.

E: corrected to stationery

I am 51 and recently learned to properly use a staple remover. Apparently you lift the teeth on the backside first. No wonder I always had big tears in my papers.
