I remember when I first tried it and [I]every[/I] item came up with an error.
Eventually the person just had to scan all the items, using the self serve checkout, defeating the purpose entirely.
The spark plug on my sister's mower is so far embedded into the thing it's impossible to remove without like 3 extenders.
It's easier to replace the plugs on a 2007 impala.

my eyes, they are bleeding!
Overly fancy sockets/ports/connectors that look cool but render the device vulnerable to damage.
I had a MicroSD to normal SD adaptor. The Adaptor was spring loaded so it clicks in and out just by pushing it. All fine and dandy till the spring broke rendering it useless.
Now I have another one which pushes and pulls like a USB socket.
Another example is those USB Stick with fancy casings, I had one that was like a shaped polished aluminium tube. Within a week the Stick had gotten stuck in a really old and really stubborn computer (had to use a school computer to give a presentation on the Nazis) Teacher attempts to pull it out and pulls the case clean off. Then accidentally rips off the little LED at the end in an attempt to remove the innards. Luckily the damn thing still works but in future I will by simpler more solidly build USB memory sticks.

Yes, Microsoft, I'd love to have my high-precision input mouse skip 3 pixels when I move it less than 1 millimeter to the right.

Oh god and they're running on like 286s, dat 2fps unshaded CG video of a guy scanning an item. Also THE FUCKING SCREENS. They're like the freak child of capacitive and resistive touchscreens.

This isn't really a problem you can fix in software and is something most regular users won't notice/care about. The only way to speed up the mouse cursor is to move it more than one pixel for each event coming from the mouse(Which of course depends on the DPI of the sensor), and that is all the cursor speed bar is: a ratio between physical movement dots/events/whatever and cursor movement in pixels.

Oh, god, that reminds me of my 99' Jimmy.
You have no idea unless you've had one. It's horrible. The spring on the driver's door is actually a different metal, so that it oxidizes faster than the rest of the car, forcing you to replace it after a couple of years. The steering column blocks one spark plug, forcing you to go through the wheel well into an area with two centimeters of give. The entire thing is a mixture of metric and imperial units. All of the hoses are a tangled fucking mess covering everything else. The door controls are needlessly complicated and fragile as hell. It is DESIGNED to make you go to a dealer for everything above an oil change.

If the radio was on, the front lights would turn off. If the radio was off, they'd turn on and the dashboard lights would turn off :v:
We went to get it repaired 4 times and they still didn't find what the problem was.

My Jimmy did that, too. It did every horrible thing that page said. It ate through the intake manifold gaskets (which was a BITCH to clean and replace), the cooling doesn't work, and the water pump was starved. I'm amazed it still runs, even with the dangerous level of misfiring. I hate that car so much now.
My grandpa's 67 Chevy truck has the original motor in it, and he's been running dexcool in it since.... whenever the fuck and it's never even eaten a single seal, gasket, what have you. No rust, nothing. Hell, my engine in my truck which is relatively new, but has the original radiator, doesn't even has rust or anything and it's always run dexcool.
