Default pinked edges on precuts

Am I the only one having fits with the pinked edges on precuts??? Have been sewing and quilting for years and for the most part do okay with 1/4" seams but, when I try to sew a pinked edge precut to a straight edge precut I simply cannot get a 1/4" or scant 1/4" seam. Most of the time I've found it not to be critical but currently I'm sewing many pinked Honey Bun strips ( 1/1/2" wide) to plain 1/1/2" UNpinked strips and it's been a nightmare since these are then cut to make multiple 1/1/2" units which will ultimately attach to each other. I have two 1/4" feet neither of which produce 1/4" seams!!!! I've attached the "post its" to my machine bed as suggested by others to no avail.
