    As a millennial: all the time

    What I did only experience once, was a leaking alkaline battery while in use

    Mouse stopped working. Opened it up, only to be greeted with freshly squeezed battery juice dripping out of the battery

    Mouse worked fine with new batteries, so no short in there.

    Was even high end Duracell

        I hate to be counted as a gen z because my mind is less there and more inbetween.
        Anyway, I think people forgot how genz starts at 1997. People. Some were 10 years old in the 2000s and al we had were battery toys and outside to play with…

        Bought out by berkshire hathaway in 2016 and they’ve been absolute garbage since then. I haven’t bought them for years, they aren’t worth anything.
