Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

I fucking hate half the people who order through courier apps. One person straight up LIED about tipping, and the SECOND person cancelled their order when I delivered it to them saying it was "too cold"-BUT STILL-took the fucking food! The damn restaurant was 30 blocks away and I was on a BICYCLE-of course its gonna be cold you entitled son of a bitch!

Seriousy, don't order food from a place 30 blocks away if you live in the city, you may get a cyclists, and we're NEVER payed enough for the distance!

ACTUALLY-the same goes for drivers as well if not worse, as I some how get payed the same as them for distance despite them losing more because of gas mileage.
 
For the past few days I've just had a massive craving for a fish fry. I don't know why it's so specific/strong but it's driving me insane. I have plans to get one for dinner tonight but I almost want to cancel them so I can get one for lunch.

I've been itching like a fricking madman today. Which is weird because I showered and these clothes are right from the laundry pile. So I go into the bathroom and look. The fucking cat has been sleeping on the laundry again. The inside of my shirt looks like an Italian man with hypertrichosis.

Have you tried pissing on the cat to get it to move?
 
Waiting for the problem to fix itself is a valid part of my night audit toolkit. Usually flipping the day clears out the debris of the previous one. Not so tonight. I have a fix, but it's kinda like admitting defeat and starting over. OTOH it will keep us off the phone with support and the manager yelling at us.

I really hate this stupid No one: meme format. You can safely remove the no one line with no change to the joke whatsoever. I get that it's supposed to mean the answer to a question no one asked, but that only works if there's some obvious, meaningful question in the first place. Which there isn't in like 99% of these. I haven't been this annoyed by a meme since "laughs in X" where X in no way even resembles something that could be humorously interpreted as a way of speaking.

Agreed. There certainly are cases where it works, but as usual, people run it completely into the ground and use it when it absolutely doesn't apply.

I downvote every one I see on reddit.
 
I'm having heart-pounding, trembling anxiety. Instead of anger at the other party, I'm feeling sick to my stomach inconveniencing them with my questions and insistence. My body is run on stupid.

I need to do the smart thing and stop thinking about it for tonight. I should've been in bed already (I actually have work tomorrow for a change, woo!) and there's no way I'll get any sleep with my chest ready to explode.
 
I dented the front corner of my drivers side bumper. was tired bumped a rolling mechanics stool and no major damage but the fender(which is plastic) is dented in. I am wondering if I can just take like a big suction cup and pop it back out though?
 
yes sometimes or a hair dryer.

I was actually able to find a way to reach through the fender shield and pop 95% of it back out, now there is a small oval dent on the front corner, which I can live with as its just too hard to reach.

If you decide you want to try to pop it out, a low heat hot glue gun can be used to stick something to it to allow you to pull it, and then hot water is all you need to peel off the glue
 
Just started Endodontics and was supposed to get through 2 maxillary incisors and 2 mandibular incisors and 2 mandibular canines. I only got through 2 maxillary incisors because the canals were calcified to hell and back that I had to stick a file down there and blow 45 minutes of lab time in the clinic to try and get an x-ray. Literally one of the worst possible teeth I could have used. Now I gotta spend a bunch of time after hours to get these mandibular teeth done. What an auspicious start to the new year.
 
Building a second shed on our front patio. Things were going okay until it came time to put in the tie beams that connect front and back, and support the roof. Wife was having major panic issues because she was standing on a ladder while holding a metal bar that I was trying to bolt into the plastic sides, but we got it together. I even installed the cross-member support so the whole thing now looks like an H-bar supporting the shed.

Then we went to install the roof itself. It was all fine, until I realized something: the access holes to screw the roof into the tie beams were upside down.

Which would mean we'd have to take all four bolts securing the tie beams to the shed out and flip the thing over before starting with the roof. :facepalm:

We decided not to do anything else tonight, since it's already getting into the 100's here in the Valley. Which is my real whine, because the 100+ temps are here to stay until the first big monsoon comes through - and it only drops into the 90's. :cry:
 
There was this guy I went to college with who has pretty bad aspergers. He drives people away socially, because on a good day he'll just dominate a conversation about a fandom he's into and not let anyone else get a word in, but on a bad one he'll just launch right into a tirade about hating himself, asks uncomfortably direct questions of whatever insecurity is on his mind ("Are we friends?" "Did you miss me?" "Do you think I'm a bad person?"), and was at one point suspended from the university for a year after having a melt down and screaming threats at a girl after she asked him to leave her alone. It doesn't help that he's an extremely tall and large individual, so physical intimidation is a factor when there's a threat of him having an episode.

I had to trade phone numbers with him in a class once after the professor wanted everybody to exchange contact info, and later into the semester he started blowing up my phone with multiple texts and attempted calls when he needed help figuring out an assignment (very frequently), then straight up called me to whine and vent about his life and ignore any attempt I make to tell him I can't help and he needs to talk to a therapist (free access at the university's health center, so no excuse not to). I ended up blocking his number, which he circumvented by calling from an unregistered home phone, until I installed an app that would block those for me too.

This was 2 years ago now, and I was honestly caught off guard to receive a call from him while I was at work the other day. I'd gone through a couple phones since and didn't recognize the number.
"Hello?"
"Hi David, this is Johann." (I altered the name.)

I was a bit dumbfounded but quickly answered "Sorry, I think you have a wrong number" and hung up/reblocked the number. Really hoping this doesn't come back to bite me and he gives up trying to contact me again, but now I'm a bit on edge every time the phone rings.

I never answer the phone unless it's on my very short list of people who have a name in my contacts. I'm talking maybe 6 people can get through. On a normal day I get 3-4 spam calls. And my voicemail says, "You have reached ###-###-####. Due to the amount of spam calls, if you do not leave a message I will not call you back."
 
My daughter is 13, but that doesn't stop her from desperately wanting to be cuddled by her mom when she is sick, so guess who is sick now? :|
 
I was waiting for a little extra money before buying a new washing machine, but apparently it wants to escape the house. I only wanted one year without having to buy anything costing more than $500.
