  counter counterpoint: A wire sitting on a table does not suck. 2 people can gather around that table and still, the wire does not suck. As soon as 1 person picks up the wire and starts doing something with it....now an interaction with a wire sucks. But that's not the wire's fault.

      I believe that's a straw man fallacy. My assertion is that an inanimate object becomes a problem when a human interacts with it. Your attempted logical argument is that a law of nature is the same as an inanimate object. I am not contesting that an inanimate object is the same as gravity. I'm saying that humans make bad decisions with simple things and whine about inanimate objects and that's a very real first world problem.
