As an antidote to the unremitting tide of awfulness with which we are all faced, there's a new debate sweeping social media at the moment, to whit:
What are there more of in the world, Wheels or Doors?
I think I'm siding with doors overall but in our house we seem to have around 44 doors and 48 wheels so not certain if this is typical.

My Year 11's have just asked me the same question.
I forgot to count car doors, which add another 10 to my count. However, they mentioned wheels in drawer runners, filing cabinets etc.
Then there's all the doors on kitchen cabinets.....
