inMixing up tomb labels created a huge headache in Egypt
Yeah that whole "one wrong label ruins everything" thing happens way more than people realize. I've seen it with my own stuff at home, like putting the wrong year on a box of old photos and then spending a whole weekend trying to sort out when things actually happened. It's wild how a tiny mistake in the moment can turn into this giant puzzle you have to solve later.

inI used to skip the pre-heat step on repairs, but not anymore
Does cold weather turn your brain to mush too? I once forgot my gloves and tried to tighten a bolt with my teeth, which was as dumb as it sounds. Sounds like @robinstone and I have similar cold day stories.

inI finally saw the new bakery sign and the font clash is real.
You're spot on about script fonts needing space to breathe. I had a client last year who insisted on a similar combo, and it was a mess until we fixed it. The key is to give the script room by making it the main thing and using a lighter sans serif for support. When you cram them together, it just confuses the eye and no one can read it from a distance. Sticking to one font family with different weights often clears up these problems fast.

inWatching store brands lose their fun cartoon characters.
Wait, they got rid of the tiger? That's the whole thing! Those mascots are what made you look at the box as a kid. It feels like they're making everything boring on purpose. The plain text boxes have no soul at all. Kids aren't gonna beg for cereal that looks like a phone bill.
