Irritants, of a minor nature

  (1) I'm getting really tired of hearing people say that some problem or event or process is so involved or difficult or heartbreaking that they "can't wrap their head around it."  That might have been fresh  and meaningful the first few times the phrase was uttered, but really, what does it mean?  Wrap your head?  Around what?
   (2) I hope I'll never be forced to put on my jeans or pants after I already have my socks on.  I hate the feeling of having to push my sock-clad foot through the long tunnel of my pants leg, and besides I invariably lose my balance standing on one leg for that long.
