I learned a long time ago that it takes three licks to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop, because commercial breaks during Saturday morning cartoons told me so. Sometime later, I also learned that “three” is usually the magic number for correctly plugging in a USB Type-A device.
……what the fuck?
Edit: Guys, I get the reference to Tootsie Pop ads and that USB-A connectors are often stubborn to connect. The “wtf-ness” comes from the writer making such an oddball reference just to arrive at the number three
If you’re still confused, it’s an apparently universal experience to try to plug in a USB, feel resistance, flip it, feel much more resistance, and then realize you were correct the first time. Hence, three is the magic number.
