Common sense used to be normal. Now? Not so much.
That’s exactly why we created Knowledge Apparel — because the world needs clothing that’s funny, educational, and a little bit sarcastic.
Here are 10 everyday common-sense rules people still struggle with… and yes, we’re laughing too.
1. Return Your Shopping Cart (It’s Not That Hard)
A free workout + instant good karma.
Just roll it back. Humanity depends on it.
2. Use Your Turn Signal — It’s Free
We checked.
Still free. Still unlimited. Still essential.
3. If You Open It, Close It
Cabinets. Jars. Lids.
It’s not a horror movie — things shouldn’t be left open.
4. Use Google Before Asking Wild Questions
If you can type on Facebook, you can type in the search bar.
5. Don’t Drive on Flat Tires
If your tire looks tired… it is.
6. Read Signs (They’re Not Decorations)
“No Exit” literally means don’t go there.
Still, people try.
7. Wash Your Hands (With Actual Soap)
Not a splash.
Not a drip.
Use soap like a grown adult.
8. Don’t Touch “Wet Paint”
You’re not a scientist.
Just believe the sign.
9. Return What You Borrow
Bonus points if you return it better than you got it.
10. Think Before You Post
Your future self (and employer) will thank you.
