Minor wishes to make the world a better place

I never understood how anyone mistakes raisins for chocolate chips. They don't even look the same.
Personally, I'll take raisins over chocolate any day, but I also don't generally eat cookies anyway.

Oatmeal chocolate chips are, strangely, the best combination.

It would be a minor improvement to the world if people would honor seat-saving. I've left my jacket to reserve a seat only to find someone sitting on top of it. Not in a crowded situation, either. There was another incident like that a couple of days ago, and I've had at least two on the train.
I'd also like some telepathic alarm that pings when it detects that I'm getting absent-minded.

I'm of two minds on this one. A couple of my local cafés are infested[1] with students during most of the year (although blessedly not so much in the summer), and I really don't feel comfortable sticking my stuff at a space before I order. OTOH, I *have* stepped out of the queue and decided to go elsewhere when someone else just walks in to claim the last spot.[2]
[1] It becomes an infestation when (potential) customers who *aren't* camping-out all day take every available space and one can't even read the news online because there's *no* available bandwidth. I'm enough of a jerk that I'll pull out my laptop just to torrent every linux ISO I can and just sit back and read.
[2] Although I'm happy that they now institute a 2 hour rule per order, it's still wouldn't stop people from tethering or working offline.
