Subscribed. Don’t want to be cursed for not subscribing.
Mild Curse: You subscribe, but everything you wanted to submit has already been posted. You find the remaining posts uninteresting. You comment, but no one replies or upvotes. People are raving about the new community, but to you, it’s just “meh” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It takes you 4 tries to insert a USB-A plug
I think I already have this curse
You and everyone else.

It kind of blew up
They pulled into my instance not long after! I think sometimes you have to be the first subscriber to see content because the instance itself won’t subscribe if nobody wants that data.
You always use the wrong key the first time trying to unlock a door.
You always dribble a little bit when you pull your pants back up.
Hilarious. I’m in.
On every keyboard you use, one of the letters is flaky. It’s a different letter each time. Sometimes it sticks down, and you get “ttttttttt”, someimes i doesn’ work attttttttttt all.
I got this curse, though it only doubles a letter, not nine-tuples it. The biggest curse, is that the only cure I found when the curse starts, it is to remove the keyboard drivers and let Windows (ugh, I know) reinstall them. Here’s the keyboard drivers I’m presented with each timee : (double e left in for good measure) <img alt="Device Manager (Win 11), 7 HID Keyboard Devices, no way to figure out what is what" src="https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/0618cfee-f56e-4425-971d-a7d7fd85cdbb.webp">
Wet socks can be more than a mild curse. That’s how trench foot became such a dangerous disease during WWI.
People cursed with this will likely just need to stop wearing shoes and switch to sandals only
Incompatible with life in Canada. Most cold countries I’d assume.
It’s mild until it isn’t.
In any foodstuff which says “average contents”, followed by a number, you will always get fewer than average.
For example, your packet of chicken nuggets says “average contents : 24 nuggets”. You are the person who receives 23 nuggets.
When shopping for clothes or shoes, you will find items in your size, and items in your preferred color/style. But never both at the same time.
Oh oh 1: every time you’re at a concert the tallest person stands in front of you 2: your fast food order is always wrong
These are my partner’s super powers and it’s hilarious.
