Counter moan  When people moan about others leaving a tiny
dribble of milk in the carton, the following is what they’re
really saying: “I demand a VERY specific amount of milk in my
tea/coffee, and when there is less than that amount left in the
carton I have to pour that milk in my mug and then open ANOTHER
carton of milk and repeat the milk pouring process so as to
achieve the perfect milk to tea/coffee ratio. This is
frightfully annoying. To avoid my annoyance can whoever is the
pen-ultimate user of said milk carton, on noting that the milk
you left in the carton is below my VERY specific requirement
please add this milk to YOUR tea/coffee in anticipation that my
demanding self will be the ultimate user of said milk carton.”
