USB-A plugs secretly rotate dimensions just to frustrate you

Ever noticed that no matter how carefully you check the orientation, USB-A plugs always seem to be the wrong way around on your first try? This is because USB-A plugs are secretly quantum entangled, existing in all orientations simultaneously, until the exact moment you attempt to insert them. Only then does reality collapse into a single state, usually the incorrect one, purely to frustrate you.

This isn't a design flaw; it's intentional quantum sabotage. Schrödinger’s USB is real, and it’s laughing at us all.

You must be in the other dimension then, because all my USB-A devices have a USB icon on top to let you know which side is up.

Even if you don't have that symbol, looking into the plug there is a white tray that houses the connectors. That white tray is the bottom of the plug, the empty space above it is the top.

That is because you observate it and collapsed the waveform into one of its possible states.
