We have all been there... pulling on the push side of a door... plugging in a usb the wrong way.
It makes you feel dumb.
Really, really dumb.
I say it isn't your fault, though, the blame should be placed on bad industrial design.
Sometimes things need to be asymmetric, AC plugs and usb cables, for example. I am completely fine with that, just make the plugs look blatantly asymmetric, so it is impossible for someone to get it wrong.
Make the push and pull sides different, so I physically cannot push the pull side or pull the push side.
The world will be a much happier place.
