IMO apple’s peak ridiculousness had to be the Magic Mouse that required you turn it on its back and unusable in order to charge it.

I agree it's silly, but it means that once a month, I need to plug it in when I go for lunch, or before I go to bed.

And you can still use the scrolling top and click while its charging if you really need to continue browsing.

Is a charging dock for a mouse ridiculous? You can't use the mouse while it charges! How absurd! How silly!

Did you actually have one? Or are you remembering a picture you saw online once?
