Delkin: My doorknob is wrong.
Delkin: Not broken.
Delkin: Wrong.
Delkin: The design is flawed. Fatally flawed. This is locked.

Delkin: This is unlocked.

Delkin: It is backwards to me. As a result, I have to check the door to see if it is locked or unlocked.
Delkin: I can't just look and know.
Delkin: What next? A green light to tell me my toaster is off?

A real life problem for me. I have to look, think, and then walk over to the door to see if it is locked or not. Frustrating.
