Post by: bojanglesman on October 10, 2013, 11:33:07 AM
People in no position of influence in football whatsoever saying they "called for" someone to be signed or "went on record" about something.  No one gives a excrement.

To be fair giving birth to someone doesn't make you their mom or dad. There's more than quite a few degenerate genetic material donors who have done little more than ejaculate and are far less deserving of the title

I'm sorry, did you just say that 'the bulk' of today's parents are nothing more than genetic material donors?

I've got news for you.  Replace a dog with a child for the very BEST pet owner and you've got one hell of a neglectful parent.  Letting your kid lie around all day next to you and lick himself while you go about your business is not parenting.  Nor is leaving the kid at home alone when you want to go out for the night.

So the bulk of children are disrespectful fat idiots.  Got it.

There's a huge difference between having concerns about childhood obesity and thinking that most parents do nothing more than cum and go.  It's primarily just the same intergenerational bitching we see with every new crop of kids.

Yeah, I hate that.  Having kids absolutely changes you, and you truly can't understand what it's like until you have them.  However, the idea that everyone is meant to be a parent is absurd.  I sure as hell don't try to push anyone into parenthood.

Every older generation says the nation is going downhill because of the current young generation. The most glaring example: WW1 generation absolutely laughed at the WW2 generation, How did that work out for them?

I used to do the same thing and then we have Facebook and other companies started by the generation I said was going to screw stuff up.

No more, no generation is worse than the prior generation, they're just different in their own way.


Annoyance: Some older douchebag complaining how young people are destroying everything...... Do us all a favor and die in a fire.


Other Annoyance: People with kids telling other people without kids how their life should be with kids. I want kids but am with a woman that has had them and can't any longer. I have helped raised kids that weren't my own, I have watched one of those kids be buried because of a horrible accident. So go freak yourself and your stupid pretentious asses, don't tell me excrement.

Buying a large box of candy to give to begging children on Thursday (there are very few children in the area where I live and I haven't had a single child begging at the door since I moved here four years ago, but it's an excuse to have lots of candy in the house) only to discover that it contains Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. I freaking hate Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

Post pee squirts that go down your leg. I suspect that this will only get worse as I get older.

I'm a sitter at home, I admit it.  You wear shorts half the year here, so you notice the splash back you get standing at a toilet.  So...  I decided I'd just sit and hope for some collateral fart letting.  No matter how much you shake or dab, there is a 20% chance of some flow as you stand up.  Hate that.

Reminds me of a couple years ago, can't remember if it was early YDKF or late TGG, but you couldn't read a single thread without coming across someone using the phrase "if you believe _______ then I've got a bridge to sell you."

OK I won't use it. I don't remember but at my age is that surprising?

Wait did I just overuse the age joke?

I'm pretty fluent, and when I try and initiate with a Japanese person in Japanese at a bookstore, restaurant, etc, they just flat out refuse to speak to me in the language.

I had a good buddy at the time, he was a red headed Irish kid from Brooklyn that was stationed in Tokyo during his time in the service. He was tatt'ed up the wazoo (Japanesse tats that aren't visable in a business shirt), he was a hot shot cold caller at a small chop shop we worked at back in 1997. The story goes he befriended a bunch of low level Yakuza dudes, they loved him, he was funny, could drink like a fish and was absolutely nuts. He said, they never let him within a million miles of anything nefarious other than drinking/carousing, I do not think he was lying his stories added up.

Anyhow during a lunch break in downtown Fort Lauderdale, (we had no idea at the time he knew Japanese or any of the above). This knockout Japanese girl was walking down the street. He said, "watch this", walked up to her and said something in Japanese. The broad turned beet red, it was awesome. She wrote down her # on his business card, they talked for a few moments and he came back laughing. He wound up dating her for a bit till he found something else.

places that give you like 2 napkins and keep the rest behind the counter

I know that's a Curb episode but it still really annoys me so many places do this. Subway is the biggest culprit of this excrement

I level the playing field at places like chipotle. literally fill my to-go bag with as many napkins as can fit and take em back home. I'm sittin on stacks of napkins fam.

I hate when you feel bloated as hell and every time you pass gas you are a little worried that something else might happen.  Only to get a chance to hit the stall.

Mostly gas and a tiny premature turd.  Premies take like five minutes to wipe away.  I like my turds full term.  Feels like an accomplishment.

My wife and my oldest son (who was turned off sports as a small kid by being hit with too many pitches) love to tell me how ridiculous it is that I am so invested in my teams. It drives me batshit crazy, especially when they can't possibly fathom missing the latest episode of Supernatural or Grimm.

Vanity plates in general are a bit cheesy, but unless you're driving an Aston or a Jag (and even then) having the numbers 007 on your plate elevate it to a whole new level of wankiness. You're a fat balding man in your mid 40s driving a Hyundai, the only person who thinks you could be an international spy is you. Stop being a queynte.

She had about 15 to 20 DVDs in her cart, and she decided she didn't want them anymore.  So instead of just taking them back later or telling the cashier she doesn't want them...she just literally throws all of the movies behind a display of paper towels and laughs about it.

Another woman called her out for it and she smugly says:  "These Walmart employees need to work harder anyway..."

However...on the other end of the spectrum,most fitness model types and hardcore bodybuilders have serious body dysmorphia and pretty much throw out the "healthy" part of fitness with eating/training strictly for aesthetics.  There's nothing healthy about force feeding yourself 5k-7k cals and trying to deadlift 10 plates or going in and out of ketosis for extended periodsof time. Can't tell you how many people I know who used to be serious into bodybuilding that either have excrement loads of injuries or are having major health problems now that they're older

Ever meet a fitness chick? They're freaking terrififying...not just talking about the dykey ones, talking about the fitnessy model hot chicks. Most fucked up women you will ever meet.

I wasn't a bodybuilder or anything, but my metabolism is completely fucked because of high school sports.

Football (170) -> Wrestling (155) -> Baseball (165-170)

If I could go back in time, I would punch my wrestling coach in the face and then punch myself in the face. 

It's definitely had an impact on my health (diet and joints).  I have to work really hard to maintain a certain weight, and I can't eat (or drink) like complete excrement without suffering the consequences...which sucks.

I'm not sure if you can necessarily attribute permanent change to that........

Might be natural decline of test levels, other factors at play. I mean yeah,It certainly doesn't help if you yo-yo dieted and of course that effects on the endocrine system as well in the short term but a lot of that stuff can be reversible over time.   The biggest danger though when you're in HS though is your growth plates fusing prematurely, and that obviously is not reversible. Lack of nutrients and unnecessary fluctuations with your endocrine system can do that. I'm almost positive i'd be 2-3 inches taller if I didn't basically survive off french bread pizza, skittles and dr pepper for most of my high school years.

I'm willing to guess your situation has to do more with genetic factors than anything else.  Some people have their T levels take a huge dump in their early to mid 20s out of nowhere. Of course there's the thyroid too..which can often be the culprit.

The injuries, sure all the time, but other health problems ? I mean I guess theres the heart related problems,  and like Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy but thats usually like 20s-30s

Not counting people who used PEDs of some nature of course.

Then again I guess you dont see too many 70 + year old former bodybuilders.

Lets not forget PEDs can be a very wide spectrum. Prohormones, stims, etc.  Pre workout supps stress your heart, same with ephedrine and whatever else.

I'm not saying don't take em, but equally as annoying as the "fat is beautiful people" are the insecure OCD bodybuilders who preach about health and dedication when their lifestyle is basically rooted in deep insecurity and reckless behavior. I've been guilty of being obsessive over aesthetics, but rarely was I disillusioned into thinking that i was being "healthy" by being that obsessive regardless if I was eating clean.

I could probably personally never fall into that ideal middle ground of truly being healthy and moderate..with aesthetics as a byproduct rather than the focus, but i'll never stand on a soapbox and judge other people who aren't fitness nuts.

-Yenta babbling commences. 
-I continue to stare at my laptop screen and don't respond, nod, or anything.
-Person continues babbling as if I am mesmerized by their every word.
-Now I can't concentrate on Puck's annoying banner postings or all the excrement on amazon I want but don't need.
-Want to say, "SHUT THE freak UP, I DON'T CARE!!11ONE!11", but I am too nice.
-Continue to stare at screen and now occasionally quietly say "mmmmhmmm" or "ahhhh" in hopes they just wanted to get my attention and will then go away.
-Person doesn't go away and continues to talk about stupid excrement.
-Now I'm mad, not just annoyed. Still too much of a puss to be honest.
-Consider farting to clear the room, but can't muster up a stinker.
-Sit and mentally punch person in their baby-maker until they finally go away 15 minutes later.
-Fume over this for 5 minutes until relaxed again.
-Yenta returns to tell me something they forgot to mention.
-Mentally kill myself.

With family I can be whatever I want to be, say whatever I want to say, and they sort of have to take it. It's comforting knowing that you stand to gain nor lose anything.

Being a dick to friends is alright, but if you go too far, you can lose the friendship, so it keeps me on my guard, and makes me do things I wouldn't necessarily do for family.

With strangers, it depends if i want to get anything out of them. If it's just a service they have no control over then I'm neutral. If being nice can benefit me in any way then I'm nice. But if things don't go my way then i turn into a massive prick. Believe it or not you get what you want most of the time by raising hell.

I tried mimicking walking away from a urinal, but still standing in front of it with my pecker out just in case it was the walking action that made it happen.  Didn't work.  It's as if my penis has some sort of laser detection system to know when your pants are up.

This reminds me of another annoyance: when guys stand excessively far away from the urinal. There's a freaking divider there for a reason, you should not be standing behind its reach.

Wingman thing is overrated anyway. I work better alone. Having a wingman always ends up with you guys liking the same chick, and then it becomes a battle for her vagina. The other becomes the consolation prize.

My best buddy Franky and I used to work real we'll together but we he would always get the better looking chick. I was fine with it since I was still getting laid, but one time I was able to get the one that he was aggressively pushing for. Best duckbill feeling ever.

I had a friend try to use me as a wingman once, except he never told me that was what we were doing and I completely missed the cues. Then we ended up competing for the same girl's attention and nobody won.

Here we have a security booth at the entrance/exit of the student parking lot.  The only students that can leave before 2PM have different colored parking passes.  SRO checks the backseats (sometimes), I think he's mostly lazy though and just lets the kids do whatever.

Seven required classes 9 through 12.  No free periods.  Off campus permits were tough to come by, but we stole readmits by the stack from the office.  Used to go smoke weed in my friend's Vanagon during classes we didn't want to go to and then just use the readmit the next day to get back into class.  It was a weird system.  The best was that there were two lunch periods, though.  As a freshman, we used to pretend to not know which lunch we had (we had a rotating schedule) so we could be late to any classes that were on 2nd lunch.  Our Spanish teacher never caught on.  He was a pushover, though.  We locked him out of class once and threw all of his stuff from the walls out the window.  It was a third story classroom.  In hindsight, that was probably too far.

I used to enjoy watching fights at school.

I still remember the Superfight in the 8th grade.  Mark Daniels vs Coy Neal.  Daniels was this big native kid (he was the only adult 8th grader in our class), but Neal wore a silver ring shaped like a Ram's head.  Daniels kicked his head in pretty good, because indians didn't care....he knew deep down he was being groomed for a career in the clink.

Sounds like my 8th grade math teacher. We ruined him. He came on halfway through the year because our original teacher was diagnosed with Parkinsons (or something) and retired. Apparently we could smell fear, because it didn't take long to go from a mild disrespect of his authority to, as you said, throwing excrement out the window. He started pretending to call the dean in the middle of class to scare us, but we noticed he never dialed a number on the phone (I guess he was scared of admitting how little control he had of the class to his superiors).

I guess it's common.

A few of my classmates (not me) in 8th grade tormented my teacher by putting hand sanitizer (amongst other things) in her black coffee. They also put thumbtacks on her seat cushion and left her nasty notes in her desk drawer, printed on her computer/printer.

We weren't allowed to leave campus, and we had to take seven classes all four years.  You had to get an off campus permit to go to a doctor's appt and excrement, and they were hard to come by.  Readmit forms to get into class the next day and show why you were absent were always sitting right behind the desk.  We took a shitload of them every year.  The guards made it really tough to get off campus, but we'd go smoke in my buddy's Vanagon or even freak chicks occasionally (separate times I. That one obviously).  There were guards at each exit, but only one guy patrolling all three lots who we called Mario for his hair and mustache.  I don't think he had any sense of smell because we never got caught.

Had another friend who stole alcohol constantly from the grocery store and sold it out of his trunk on campus to rich kids.  Paid for him to restore his POS old Mustang.

Most people had a free at least part of the year in senior year. I never had one the entire time I was in the school. My schedule just worked out that way. I didn't even take extra classes. Hell, I wasn't even in any advanced classes (unless you count the one AP Religion class I took for half a year in senior year).

We weren't allowed "free" periods, we just turned cutting class into an art form. We had more than 20 security guards at our school which sometimes made it interesting. It usually depended on how "cool" your teacher was on whether or not you got written up.

Suffice to say, I spent a lot of time in the Dean's office, and I was a regular at supervision (official detention) and the in-school suspension room. It was all worth it.

The biggest problem was if you went to home room, which you pretty much had to otherwise you were absent, even if you got away with cutting, every teacher had a list of who wasn't at homeroom. So, if you weren't on the list, you weren't absent so it was pretty much on the teacher to write you up because you weren't at class.

Most of the time I knew I was eventually going to see my dean. Just had to hope I didn't look that stoned or that I was tripping too hard. Haha, seems like another life.

Atlanta is the worst airport I have ever been in.  Unless you arrive in terminal 1, you better have a 2 hour layover if you want to grab a smoke.  9 terminals, all connected by a tram with no egress.  Only place you can smoke is out front of 1, only place you can get something decent to eat is 1.  Trams smell like old man farts.  Just an abortion of an airport.

That's funny that you mention that. Every single time I've been to O'Hare, I've had to run to catch my flight. The terminal layout is absolute horseshit.

Reminds me of this quote:

"The prime objective of a hemorrhoidectomy is to remove the offending varicosity with as little damage as possible to the patient. Of all the structures in the area, one stands out as the king. You can damage, deform, ruin, remove, abuse, amputate, maim, or mutilate every structure in and around the anus except one. That structure is the sphincter ani. There is not a muscle or structure in the body that has a more keenly developed sense of alertness and ability to accommodate itself to varying situations. It is like the goalie in hockey...always alert."

They say man has succeeded where the animal fails because of the clever use of his hands, yet when compared to the hands, the sphincter ani (anal sphincter) is far superior. If you place into your cupped hands a mixture of fluid, solid, and gas and then through an opening at the bottom you try to let only the gas escape, you will fail. But the anal sphincter can do it. The sphincter can apparently differentiate between solid, liquid, and gas. It apparently can tell whether its owner is alone or with someone, whether standing or sitting down, whether its owner has his pants on or off. No other muscle of the body is such a protector of the dignity of man, yet so ready to come to his relief."

I wouldn't necessarily have you as part of a hivemind but you are the single biggest sunshiner. I can not remember a single thing that the Jets have ever done that you didn't find the positive in - a player is linked and you list all the reasons why it's a great move, and then as soon as it happens you've got nothing but reasons why it was a lucky escape. That isn't the most awful thing - it's a hell of a lot better than always assuming that everything's going to go dreadfully wrong - but it does suggest a lack of objectivity.

Would you have been against Geno Smith had I not badmouthed him during most of the offseason?

I'd like some examples of my lack of objectivity. 

Because I knew who Oday Aboushi was and didn't complain about that pick, I'm a sunshiner?

Because I think Brian Winters can develop into a better player in his second year, I'm a sunshiner?

Mike Goodson, David Garrard, and Stephen Peterman signings made sense to me because I realized that LaRon Landry wasn't a realistic option for us.  He sucked in 2013, by the way.  But we should still be paying him $6M a season.  /sunshined

Was I not right about Chris Ivory?  I was calling for that move for years.  The sun is shining. 

I thought Wayne Hunter would be solid and that Derrick Mason would be a decent player for us.  Oh well.  Those moves were out of our control, just like the rest of them.  So because I don't throw a temper tantrum when things don't go how I expected, I'm not objective and I'm a sunshiner?  I'm fine if you see me that way.  It'll be much more fulfilling for me when the Jets are back in the playoffs.

Seeing the positive in things doesn't necessarily mean you're wrong, as you've demonstrated.

As a recent example of what I'm talking about though (and I'm not about to go digging through the multiple threads, so if you think I'm talking out of my arse I'll just have to accept that), when the Jets were meeting with DRC your view was that he was the best suited corner to Rex's system and that his skill set would be very effective in this defense. As soon as it was announced that he was joining the Giants, your view was that he's a player whose commitment is questionable and who takes plays off.

Now, none of that is contradictory and in fact it may all very well be completely correct. My point is, when it looks like he might sign for us you bring forward the positive aspects and when he doesn't, you bring forward the negative. That's proper sunshining.

I'm definitely the biggest sunshiner.

Hyman was as much of a SOJ as you could get last season. Jets win a game and he has a hundred excuses why we didn't deserve it. We beat the Saints and it's all because of Sproles injury so we didn't deserve it. Week after week the guy foamed at the mouth screaming for Rex to get herpes and die. Calling him a sunshiner would be like calling me a good speller.

But what he does do is not be retarded. And realize Idzik's relatively obvious long term strategy, which is not to wildly overpay on people's favorite players in madden. If Idzik let's MO Wilk walk in free agency get out the crosses and torches by all means. But if Idzik gets our cap under a long term manageable plan then we could be set for a long time.

Tanny went buck wild with spending, and it completely fucked us for about 3 seasons. We had mountains of debt with guys like pace Scott Harris Holmes and more wildly overpaid. Idzik's plan is long term, so it might take a while to appreciate. But patience is key here

You act like I'm the only one saying this stuff.  It's widely known.

I was fine with DRC coming in on a prove-it deal, which is what Idzik ended up offering.  He has the skillset to be a very good man-to-man corner.   

I only took shots at him when the Giants signed him to a longterm deal.  Much like just about anybody else, I worry that he won't buy-in and that isn't worth a longterm commitment.  I knocked his effort and his ability against the run - he's been with four teams in seven seasons.  If he was worth committing to, don't you think someone would have done so by now? 

Big money, longterm deals should be used on players that our front office is certain about.  Not players that give half-assed effort in most games.

I'm definitely the biggest sunshiner.

Hyman was as much of a SOJ as you could get last season. Jets win a game and he has a hundred excuses why we didn't deserve it. We beat the Saints and it's all because of Sproles injury so we didn't deserve it. Week after week the guy foamed at the mouth screaming for Rex to get herpes and die. Calling him a sunshiner would be like calling me a good speller.

But what he does do is not be retarded. And realize Idzik's relatively obvious long term strategy, which is not to wildly overpay on people's favorite players in madden. If Idzik let's MO Wilk walk in free agency get out the crosses and torches by all means. But if Idzik gets our cap under a long term manageable plan then we could be set for a long time.

Tanny went buck wild with spending, and it completely fucked us for about 3 seasons. We had mountains of debt with guys like pace Scott Harris Holmes and more wildly overpaid. Idzik's plan is long term, so it might take a while to appreciate. But patience is key here
You know now is your time to kick that bundle of sticks Heismanberg in the groin and you stick up for him. Ten bucks that douche would nail you in the keester if given the chance you just had. Your definitely the bigger man, if you want to call him a man.

Pay is always made in arrears, so today's paycheck presumably wouldn't reflect a pay rise that came into effect last Saturday. Looking at my payslip from last Friday (March 14th), it's for the two week pay period up to March 7th.

This paycheck covers the period from March 8 through the 21. So, at the very least, it should include one week of increased pay if there were a raise involved at all.

I was pretty sure it wouldn't come with a raise. I'm just really irritated that I was right.

So you were told three months ago that you were getting a promotion, and at no point during that time did it occur to you to ask what it entails and how much additional money it's worth? How is it a promotion if you're not getting paid any more? How did that conversation even go?

"Hey Alio, we've been very impressed with your progress here at Acme Products and we have a vacancy coming up in the management team. We'd like you to take on this additional responsibility starting March 15th."

"Great, thanks. What are the package details?"

If it starts on March 15th, wouldnt that mean that you are getting that bump from the March 15th-30th pay period? I'm a 7-day delay, so I'd receive that check on 4/7.

This was probably in the previous site's thread (or even this thread somewhere in the beginning)  but.....


Giants fans who act like freaking cunts and love to still talk about how we're a circus.  And some of them love to play out these fantasies of our downfall in their head before the season starts. I don't get the complex that fans of the more successful teams have over the other local team that hasn't.

Granted, as a knicks fan i often act like that towards the Nets but that's pretty much all post Prokohorov. And it's not the same because the Knicks freaking suck, and they play in the same division/conference.

I just stole this btw.

Some douchebag posted on a friend of mine's FB status. The friend is a giants fan (and also played D1 football and has a few teammates on the Giants right now) likes to rib the Jets but it's usually good natured and never crosses the obnoxious territory. He was joking about Vick/Geno number situation and I sarcastically rattled off the dysfunction of other franchises in the league. Random douchebag decides to come in and then paint this elaborate and specific narrative of how the Jets are going to be a clown show this season, and Vick/Geno will be a huge controversy and how Geno is going to be the next Sanchez by being mentally damaged the same way. It was accompanied by the usual REX IS A BLOWHARD, FOOT FETISH BUTTFUMBLE DERRR


i wrote this back (including your line I added because it fit pretty well with what i had already said)

"I have nothing against the Giants. I don't see the rationale in hating a team that's in another conference and only plays every 4 years. But too many Giants(and yankees) fans act like the pretty but extremely insecure girl in a group of friends who gets livid and catty when ever someone else gets even a shroud of attention, no matter how slight. Enjoy your success. don't be a complete douche about it. I never understood the air of superiority some fans have towards fans of other less successful teams. The whole "Ha!

We, unfortunately, did not get the news we wanted.

It's not a permanent life changer like I thought might be the case, but it will be something we're gonna have to deal with until late August, the earliest.

Best part, everything should be okay and we should all be good and healthy in the long run and, hopefully, be stronger as a result. Plus, I like the guy we met today and he's not a bullshitter, which is something we both like and respect.

Sorry to be a downer, but this is a downer thread, no?

"An" Historic or "A" Historic Event? (http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/us/words/a-historic-event-or-an-historic-event)

‘A historic event’ or ‘an historic event’?

People often believe that they should use the indefinite article an in front of words like historic, horrific, or hotel. Are they right or wrong? Should you say ‘an historic event’ or ‘a historic event’?

An is the form of the indefinite article that is used before a spoken vowel sound: it doesn’t matter how the written word in question is actually spelled. So, we say ‘an honour’, ‘an hour’, or ‘an heir’, for example, because the initial letter ‘h’ in all three words is not actually pronounced. By contrast we say ‘a hair’ or ‘a horse’ because, in these cases, the ‘h’ is pronounced.

Let’s go back to those three words that tend to cause problems: historic, horrific, and hotel. If hotel was pronounced without its initial letter ‘h’ (i.e. as if it were spelled ‘otel’), then it would be correct to use an in front of it. The same is true of historic and horrific. If horrific was pronounced ‘orrific’ and historic was pronounced ‘istoric’ then it would be appropriate to refer to ‘an istoric occasion’ or ‘an orrific accident’. In the 18th and 19th centuries, people often did pronounce these words in this way.

Today, though, these three words are generally pronounced with a spoken ‘h’ at the beginning and so it’s now more logical to refer to ‘a hotel’, ‘a historic event’, or ‘a horrific accident’.

That's not true. Elements of the way the language is written in the US (for example the use of -ize rather than -ise) are truer to earlier forms of the English language, and I'm already on record as having no issue with that. The version of English that is spoken in the US is wildly different to its predecessor though. Languages grow and develop, and American English is an entirely legitimate branch.

That doesn't change the fact that "an historical" is a correct usage of the language (as is "a historical", if you prefer).

None of this is true. You should really take a linguistics course or look up the history of the English language. It's pretty fascinating stuff. There's one book I've read that's great, but can't remember the name. I'll get back to you later on that.

How would they know it's not contagious?  Most pink eye is extremely contagious.  It spread like wildfire through my wife's school last year because no one noticed some girl who showed up with it.  Usually they send the kids home immediately when they have it.  If I had seen you, I'd back away too.

UPS pissed me off. I ordered some garden decoration on Amazon for Mother's Day last week, it was supposed to arrive on Thursday. UPS refused to leave the package without a signature, so they left one of those slips on the mailbox. So I signed the back of the slip and left a post-it note on the front of it asking them to leave the package. So what do they do on Friday? Refuse to deliver it again and just slapped a second slip on top of the first one.

Tracking says they're not retrying again until Monday, so now this is no longer a viable Mother's Day gift. I ended up going to Home Depot on Sunday morning and buying something similar, and that worked out fine. I figured UPS would flub the third attempt and I'd be able to tell Amazon to take it back.

So what does UPS do? They freaking leave it by the door on Monday. They managed to not deliver it the two days that would have been fine, and delivered it on the only day that was too late.

The best return option was for a UPS pickup (only other option was lugging this thing to a UPS store) so who the hell knows how this will work out. I'm sure they'll try to swing by at 10 AM when no one is home.

I ended up getting close to $400 in credits, 200 for the Kindle fire and 200 for a new case. I just bought a 25 buck case and a new TV for the guest room

Yeah, that little half-seat on the end sucks. But it's not bad when it's an attractive woman, it's much more annoying when it's a 50 year old gypsy woman or a fat guy.

My sister ordered a book on amazon ($15-20) around Christmas and ended up getting the same one as a gift from my parents. she went on amazon to start the return process, and they told her to just keep the book and they would take the charge off her account.
I had that happen with some baby seat thingie I bought on Amazon.  I guess there are some items that get discontinued and aren't worth them restocking.  I returned it at the last minute before the return limit expired.  They just said keep it and refunded the money.  Sweet.

Most of the time if the price is low on an item they'll do that because the cost of the return and restock is higher than its value. Still great customer service though

It's exceptionally easy to pirate apps on Android phone, and wildly difficult to do so on a  iPhone.

I think that's by far the biggest advantage of an android over an iPhone.

Well they get away with it because every show has thousands of people every single one with a cell phone that has a high definition video camera and Internet access built in.

People in the office who are so afraid of not knowing something that their first instinct is to say "Yeah, I know" when you're trying to explain something to them. No, you don't know, that's why I have to explain it to you. Pride gets in the way with a lot of people's development, so much so that they don't even realize it.

That's not a "concert in the city".

All the shows I attend are in Manhattan/Brooklyn anyway. I haven't seen a Jones Beach one that I've wanted to attend since 2008, and I was away that summer anyway.

Jones beach is terrible. I went one time to see a concert, can't remember who but it was packed to the balls with douche guidos. I remember the bathroom out side has a 4 inc lake of pee in it. women were going into the men's bathroom and squating in corners and peeing. I've never see anything like that before.

It allows you to get from house to car and vice versa without having to deal with the elements. It means that in winter you don't have to dig your car out. And it allows you to have windows that let light into the house on the same wall as the vehicle.

I actually desperately need to get back to work. not sure what i want to do though...

And i said I COULD retire not that i would... that depends on the definition of retirement. I could not work and live a somewhat comfortable life for a long time, or work to pay for living expenses and use the money otherwise to rebuild some legitimate wealth (the latter is the idea...but i've burned myself out in jobs/fields i'm good at but hate doing, and don't want to repeat that)

I live on a narrow street, so the garbage truck often completely occupies all driveable space when I leave in the morning. But since I take public transportation, it never occurred to me how much it would suck if I parked at the end of the block (dead end) and was trapped by the garbage truck.

I drive my kids to school, and I usually make it out of my neighborhood before the garbage trucks hit. This morning we ran a few minutes late, and wound up behind a complete asswipe who was inching up the block (clearly on purpose) while there was a line of cars behind me.

How about the old cunts in the supermarket that still pay by check. They have to write the freaking check out, the cashier has to take 10 minutes to ok the damn thing because nobody but these old cuntbags still pay by it and then the old cuntbags have to sit there in the freaking way till they balance their freaking checkbooks, while we all wait for them to take their sweet derriere time finishing. Did I tell you how much I hate those people?

None of our stores accept cheques any more, which results in the same doddery old folks spending ten minutes trying to figure out how to use their chip and PIN card.

Come the revolution, retired people should be banned from grocery stores after 4:30 in the afternoon and all weekend. If they can't organise their empty days to go shopping when everyone else is at work, they deserve to have to live on whatever tins they can find at the back of the cupboard.

Sorry, I ain't packing my own groceries. I'll flip that around and say that it annoys me when the cashier stares at me and expects me to fill the bag myself. Had that happen once and said loudly "you gonna fill the bag up or what?" I got a big old sigh and watched her reluctantly pack it up. It's their job.

To be honest, I try to avoid packing the bags myself. Thankfully the two stores we shop at most often usually have someone there to do the bagging for you. If I do end up packing the bags myself, it's usually because I suspect the person might be too stupid to avoid putting the cans on top of the bread.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind self checkout counters. I actually prefer them. But if I'm waiting on line just like everyone else, then I expect the hands on service. It's like going to a full service has station and electing to get out of your car and do it yourself for no real reason.

But there is a reason, it makes the line move faster. If there's no line then go for it, but if there are others behind you then just pack your damn bags. You may have little else to do with your time and be quite happy to spend extra time in the grocery store so that you can demonstrate to the clerk just how much more important you are than them, but I don't and you're holding me up.

I have to agree. They have baggers down here but I bag 50 times faster and more efficient then any of them anyhow. I would rather bag my own to be honest, the baggers down here suck.

I usually withdraw into my mental happy place when I'm on line at the grocery store so I don't notice if I'm being held up. Unless the guilty party is causing a scene because they're trying to use a Russian coupon and insisting on paying in snakes.

When I worked for that gourmet market, I'd see old ladies from the Upper East Side constantly coming back to complain about this or that with their food. I swear, with the lengths they'd go to get refunds I wouldn't be surprised if one claimed to find a chicken bone in her bell peppers.

The standard restaurant download file for a credit card terminal includes a tip line, they're probably too lazy to ask for it to be removed. And I'm sure they're making a little money on those tips so there's no incentive to get rid of it.

If any of you go to a Japanese/Chinese/Korean restaurant in NYC, keep in mind that the staff are all hourly employees, and don't get to split the tips. Every single dime you tip goes straight to the house. Knew a bunch of students who worked at all types of Japanese restaurants, and they'd all get like $15 an hour but zero cut of the tips. I've never left a tip at a Japanese restaurant after learning that. freak giving the house extra money.

Pharmacies and pharmacists, I am so sick of these fucks. They go to school for a zillion freaking years and they're some if the laziest dumb fucks I have ever ran across on my freaking entire life. Like Nazis burning books, well you get the idea.

 freaking assholes told me to come back in an hour and half. Came back it's not ready. I really said, "well why the freak not?". "It's not covered by insurance"......."my first question still stands in addition to why the freak didn't you call me?"........crickets.......had to be mail order. So I would have to wait a week to ten days that way. It was 25 bucks, I will pay it, and get mail order later, the wife needs it now, but hey thanks for the freaking call.

I freaking hate ghetto Walgreen's they can suck a dick. I have wasted more time because of these assholes then I care to guess.

Edit: Then some fossil had to pay by check in front of me and when they called my name, some dude thought it was ok to try and ask questions at the pick up window. I screamed," excuse me" in his stupid freaking ear, that old freak jumped and went to the consultation window. You know where the dumb freak was supposed to be in the first place.

When I was a kid *insert Guinness is old joke here* second place trophies sucked and there were 2 fat kids in each grade, a boy and a girl. These freaking kids are so fat now I honestly shake my head when I see them. What kind of parents do these fat kids have?

The kind who give them trophies all the time.  Delicious deep fried oreo trophies.

I'm still trying to figure out where all these fat kids are.  My daughter's school has maybe one or two fat kids out of 750 kids.

How many posters here were born after 1980? Did you get a trophy every time you took a excrement? If you ever received some sort of trinket of consolation after not winning something, did you care about it at all?

Just barely born in the 80s. I feel like some of the sports leagues I was in as a kid did give out trophies to everybody, but I honestly am not sure. There were participation rules as a little kid that were sometimes frustrating to follow, like everyone had to play a certain amount of time, and I remember some vague animosity toward teams who tried to bend/break those rules.

It's pretty difficult to eat yourself into full blown obesity as a little kid

Look towards high-school and see how it changes

I live in a very active city where people can and do walk and bike anywhere and everywhere local in year round good weather.  It's also a city where people take a lot of pride and emphasis on the food they eat.  We have very low rates of overweight people however you define it.  I'll keep track of how many even overweight people I see in the next week.  It may be skewed by high tourist season, but that's ok.  Science demands it.

You said kids.  This topic has come up before, and you didn't believe me before.  So I kept my eyes open at drop off/pick up.  Seriously, there are almost no overweight kids and no obese ones at our school.

My wife works with poor kids in high school and just said her school is probably 10% overweight with a couple technically obese kids.  So there you go.

Same at my school and I'm in an entirely different region.

We have three kids that are morbidly obese.  They weren't allowed to play football because of their weight.  It was sad. 

Had another kid come out that was barely eligible to play and he's lost nearly 30 pounds since the end of May.  He bought it after barfing and wheezing his way through early workouts.  It's great to see.

It's gotta be a woman thing. My wife's daughter is in town to help with her care. She does the dishes all the time now. When I look in the dish washer to get an utensil it looks like it was loaded by a group of ADHD addled Monkeys hopped up on Crystal Meth. If she spent an extra minute loading the freaking thing it would save her an extra 10 unloading it.

I freaking hate that passive aggressive BS.  My wife doesn't wash my underwear (she puts it in a separate pile and claims she "will get to it") because there are times when they get a bit skiddy.  She then gets all bent out of shape if I don't wash her nasty monthly bill messes.  Where's the justice?  And no, she has no sense of how to load a dishwasher, claiming instead that I'm "better at it", but she also refuses to run the stupid thing until it is completely full.  Oh, the humanity!

Annoying, but a good safeguard I guess. You can do a lot of damage with a stolen Amex. I imagine they have to write off so many bogus charges.

Swiping right makes sense, because it gives you an idea of what bitches are digging you. good market research tool lol

There are some where i just go "no way, i'd never be that desperate" or feel bad because i'm getting a really ugly girl's hopes up. 

A couple of my friends (who are normally successful with women) have raved to me about it and kept showing me how they're basically backlogged and can't keep up. It's easy to see how that happens.  Juggling 5/6 girls is a full time job, let alone talking to 15-20.

The day my four year old opens his mouth at a movie is the last day he sees a movie for a while.  I hate that excrement.  The best was when I took my 4 and 7 year old to see Spider-man 2 at the Arclight (crazy nice theaters out here, never get disruptions) and the woman behind me spent the whole time leading up to the movie bitching to her friend that my kids were going to talk the whole time and ruin the movie for her.  Middle of the movie, her phone buzzes, she says "Oh excrement", and my son spins around and says "Shhhhhhhh".  First time I've ever heard a phone go off at an Arclight and my kid was right on top of it.

I went and saw The Purge sequel during my day off just because I didn't have excrement to do and I had a free movie pass.

I guess they let in whoever and don't care about ages, because there was a pack of eight to ten pre-teen girls in there and they were shrieking during the trailers and I thought the entire movie would be annoying.

They actually shut the freak up during the movie, but I've heard from some friends here that R rated movies are littered with kids (not teens, but middle schoolers) on Friday and Saturday nights.  That's annoying as freak.  I get that it's a relatively small city and the theater wants to make money, but those kids will get dropped off and pick another movie if the theater refuses to sell them R rated tickets.

  I have mentioned this before but the worst I saw was some "mom" bringing a gaggle of kids to see 8mm. They were all under 10 there were at least 3. I did say something to her because my wife grabbed me to get away from the idiot, not because of anything I did.

Bravo to your kid. I knew the kid would be a problem in the beginning. He asked what are we seeing real loud and the "dad" answered "GotG" of course. The idiot was there purely for his enjoyment and not for the kid. The kid literally wouldn't shut up. I was there with my wife and her grandson 6'4" 280 and bouncer in KC. So it wasn't I was scared or was worried about back up, I just loathe causing a ruckus around a kid. I have told 16-17 y/o on up to college kids and/or adults to shut the freak up in a theater and mortify my wife. I can't stand rude idiots. I suppose I should have said something and am worried about my violent tendencies in those instances.

This wasn't at the movies, but I was preparing to at least defend myself on Saturday morning at breakfast.  People are just so inconsiderate and it's so irritating. 

I pick up two boys every morning before practice and I told them if they made it every day in the summer, that I'd take them to breakfast before the first pads practice.  We go to IHOP at like 6:15 in the morning.  This fat derriere black guy is reading the paper and chain smoking in the booth right next to us (in a non-smoking section). 

So one of my boys (we call him D-Day - crazy derriere safety that will knock your block off) tells him to move and the guy just laughs at him.  We keep eating and he lights up another one.  D-Day gets out of the booth and walks to the restroom.  When he comes back out, he walks up to this fat freak, grabs his hand and makes him drop the cigarette.  He stomps the thing out and then takes the dude's ashtray and plate of food over to the smoking section and says: "you can sit your smokin, fat derriere over here nigga"

The guy just sits there and stares at me like I'm supposed to do something about it.  He got up and walked over to our table and sort of fumbled for a second and then walked over to the other table and sat down.  I was ready to stab his derriere with a butter knife.

It's sad to say, but I wouldn't be sent on early morning patrols to get kids that aren't quality players.  We have a lot at-risk kids that play huge roles for us, but there's way more that are excrement out of luck and it's sad.  Last year, we had a short bus that would go get kids.  Not sure what happened with that, but it's out of my hands. 

He's got some screws loose - 6'1 190 at 16 years old and runs a 4.47 40 (most likely 4.6s if laser timed).  If he keeps growing, he'll be a DI LB or S somewhere.  At worst, he'll end up somewhere like Coastal Carolina or Charleston Southern.  He does need to get away from his shithead absent father.  He keeps a tally of how many shoes he knocks off during practice.  It's hilarious.  Pretty sure I've posted some of the smack talk from him in another thread.

Yeah it was about snuff films and deviant sexual stuff, I had no idea about subject matter going in.

 I can't remember what I said to the mom but it was something on the order, " when you saw the subject matter of the movie why did you stay? What's wrong with you". A few people thanked me outside the door. My wife still remembers that.

I don't go to the movies very often any more but we went to see Knocked Up many moons ago and we sat next to these teenagers/maybe early 20s people and the intro with the shimmy shimmy ya comes on and we're like "this movie is gonna be sick" and then these kids aren't even talking to each other, they're all talking on their phones.

I ask nicely if they could zip it. They look at me and 30 seconds later are back to their phones...this time I get up out of my seat in the dark and yell at them (in a crowded theatre) "shut the freak up you wretched cunts you're ruining the movie for everyone here (oh, the missus was absolutely white-faced)." *don't remember my exact word but I remember purposely going over the top with my insult

I was expecting some sass back and the entire section around us started applauding. Needless to say, not a peep the rest of the movie, probably out of sheer embarrassment, although I was slightly annoyed that a missed a few minutes of the beginning.

You guys remember the carpet guy from my job? I will post if you don't. Anyhow he has to be the worlds biggest freaking slob. In addition to clipping his nails at his desk with no pail, in the open, he shaves at his desk with both electric razor and Mach five.

However, yesterday he did something so horribly disgusting and vile I wanted to kill him.  He jabbed a mustache clipper in each nostril and clipped his nose hair at his desk. When he was done he jams his finger in each nostril and swirls it around like he was digging for gold. I was so skeeved out, I wanted to hurl.

And it's always old folk driving exactly on the speed limit, which makes them look even more like cops waiting for something to do. Maybe it's what old people do to pass the time. "Got nothing to do today, think I'll go drive around in my lookalike cop car and make everyone slow down for no reason."

I don't drive much, but when I do I hate when people try and pass me on the road. I'll purposely speed up to keep them from doing it. I do the same thing while walking. If I feel someone is trying to walk past me, I'll block his way and speed up myself rather than let them pass. No idea why. Just a thing I do.

Depends. I've done it myself. Once a lady had her feet up on the seat and her bags on the seats next to her taking up an entire 4-seater. The look she gave me when I told her to put her shoes on and put her bags up was priceless. She started grumbling under her breath, you know, because she was mad at me and I said loudly, "are you talking to me? I can't hear you." Grumbled, asked her again, she shut her mouth the entire ride home after that. That was years ago.

The conductors are pretty proactive about that.

Bell Canada. Paid the overdue bill last week, today I get a message that our service is suspended for unpaid bills. Turns out that wife had paid the money against her cellphone account rather than the TV/internet account. I point out that given we are on their One Bill service it shouldn't matter, but no. They have no way of transferring this large amount of credit now sitting on her cellphone account to our TV/internet account, so I had to pay it again in order to get the service back on.

Their contact centre staff are monumentally stupid and unhelpful. I am less than impressed at having to waste an hour of my time on that.

my sister in law.

shes moving out tomorrow, finally, after a year of living in my basement paying no rent on what was supposed to be a 3 month stay  paying rent. but the state of the basement indicates otherwise. shes packed literally nothing, not a single god damned thing. i brought her a mountain of boxes from work to pack everything and they sit exactly where i put them over a month ago. she hasnt been here for 2 weeks, actually. she elected to stay at her friends house because her friends husband is away on business, and she gets lonely. her retard boyfriend decided he had better things to do so he cancelled and isnt coming to help her move, and im out of town for a wedding all weekend. so it all falls on her father and her uncle to pack her excrement and move it all.

and they better be out, because monday im getting cable installed in the basement again(i cut the cord when she refused to pay for the movies she ordered) and will be getting my basement set up to my god damned liking.

What is your wife's stance on this situation?
Title: Re: Annoyances
Post by: IATA on October 03, 2014, 10:40:03 AM
shes ambivalent. shes refusing to take sides because its her stupid sister, even though she acknowledges all my complaints as valid, she refuses to confront her sister about anything.

the cable cutting was a huge fight, it was stupid. her and her boyfriend ordered $50 bucks in PPV and didn't mention it. I get the bill and ask them about it, and they deny it. I call and find out what box ordered the movies, and lo-and-behold, its hers and on days we were out. so it clearly was her. she denied it. i asked her boyfriend how the movies were and he tells me, and even mentions they were ordered by them. i ask for the money and she says no, it wasnt me. so i told her to either pay or theres no cable anymore because im not subsidizing a squatter. i cut the cable and change the wifi passes and she flips out like, "i live here too blah blah blah".

she whines and cries and complains to her dad, who calls me to see why im harrasing her. i tell him whats going on, and he sighs and says that most likely true. he offered to pay, but im not taking his money because his entitled bitch daughter can continue to leech off of even more people.

my wife, she cries because shes in the middle.

im just glad shes leaving. im considering changing the locks, while im at it.

Eh, it's easy to say that, it's harder for it to actually be done. How do you tell family they're nothing more than a moocher and they can go live in a box for all you care?

The cable thing I can say should have been handled by her.

I'm sure she could use a little tact, and word that a little better.

The point is...IATA's wife is well aware of what her sister's been doing.  Letting everything slide clearly isn't solving the problem. 

Sometimes life is hard, Alio.  Why should IATA's life be excrement on, because his sister-in-law is a selfish queynte.


EDIT: the only instance where IATA should step in, is if his wife attempts to solve this and is completely rebuffed by her sister.

Sometimes there's nothing you can do. I know of one circumstance where family have taken over and there's not excrement the person can do about it because if they don't pay the mortgage, which is in their name, they're fucked, and/or they create an environment where if they do take charge, the police are called by their spouse.

I have an awesome relationship with my family. It's in no small part because if I have a problem with something they're doing, or they with me, we'll tell each other. I wouldn't dream of deliberately leeching off my family and they wouldn't consider not helping me out if I needed it, and vice versa.

Everything about this excrement is unhealthy and IATA is the one having to deal with it while his wife puts her head in the sand.

if i had the choice, shed have been gone 9 months ago, but i cant throw my wifes sister out. i simply made it not worthwhile to live here. the only reason she still had power was because the box was in the basement utility room.

Sounds like drugs are involved, seriously. In my experience dumbass lies like the movie thing by an adult, always drugs.

I mean, how do you not realize that the only other people who could have ordered them would be you or your wife? Perhaps she thought you would believe her over your wife, or at least have some doubt that would allow her to wiggle free....that disrespect in itself should have landed her derriere on the curb.

A family that truly loves and respects each other wouldn't feel a need to walk on eggshells to avoid completely destroying the relationship.  They'd be able to handle each other bluntly at times knowing that the family would still be there.  If their relationship is fragile enough that she can't call her own sister out for completely taking advantage of her and her husband, then it doesn't sound like it's a healthy family relationship to begin with.

What dose? I love vyvanse compared to any other of the adhd stims.

Cleanest and makes me feel the least cracked out

I'm prescribed 70mg (highest dose) but I usually empty out half the capsule onto a piece of bread or something, eat it and then take the remaining capsule 5 hours later or so.

It's expensive as excrement even with insurance so I can't go the 30 or 40mg 2x a route

I like it as well. I'm on 60 atm, I just started a week or so ago. I take 40 in the morning and a 20 later on. If I take 60 at once I get wicked manic and sweat up a storm, it's no fun

My drug plan is pretty solid, 30 day supply of 20 and 40 cost me 20 bucks total. Otherwise it's 180 and 120, it's rough.

I was on stratera, but all it did was give me headaches and didn't help much either way.


One thing I'm struggling with is some intense insomnia. I've slept maybe 4-5 hours a night the last 4 nights. Did you suffer from that?

Yeah anything over 40-50 mg at once is bad.

I don't have trouble sleeping on it if I take it early enough. If you just started taking it , you might have that issue because even though you don't "feel it" it's still in your system.

Eventually you'll build more of a tolerance and you'll know your body. I take days off here and there to make sure I don't have a crazy tolerance. Seems to work well enough and compared to adderall or any other drug, the crash isn't that bad on off days.

When I used to take adderall in the last year or two I was in the mortgage business, it effected my personality and made me more robotic. I was more organized in terms of structuring my day, calling people back and getting the docs I needed to close but it definitely effected my ability to sell.

I hate adderall. It shouldn't be prescribed to anyone. It should just be a recreational drug or temporary study aid. It's just a pure amphetamine

Vyvanse would probably have a positive effect if I went back into sales, since it still allows me to be more of "myself". I just tend to talk a lot more on it, not really change as a person.

I forgot to mention I take it with Intuniv.

Intuniv is a newer adhd drug, non stimulant but not like straterra or crap like that. Its essentially a beta blocker(not exactly but similar) so it does actually lower your blood pressure, but the main benefit of it is it slows down your thoughts and for me,my one huge issue with adhd, is compulsive behavior. It helps a LOT with that.

It's pretty much prescribed always along with a stimulant, they seem to really balance each other out. If I take vyvanse without being on Intuniv, I still feel scatter brained to an extent and am prone to compulsive behavior.

Title: Re: Annoyances
Post by: Johnny English on October 22, 2014, 08:54:53 AM

People not using cruise? Because it means they don't drive at a constant speed, which in turn means that you end up in stupid and unnecessary overtaking loops or that you'll pull out to overtake and then they'll speed up.

Cruise makes cars and roads more efficient. People don't use it because they're either too stupid or too scared, and neither is an acceptable trait on the roads.

I'm capable of maintaining a constant speed without cruise control, but the people who can't should use it more often. Like you said, it results in a lot of unnecessary overtaking loops.

I used to use cruise control as much as possible when I had my own car, but between that and the navigator I felt I was slipping into autopilot, which made me uncomfortable. Now I just use cruise control when I've got wide open highway.

My wife loses her excrement when other drivers brake for no reason.

Rightly so. Generally it's because they're driving too close to the vehicle in front.

When I said no reason, I literally meant no apparent reason, as in nobody's in front of them and they're not going fast enough to warrant slowing down.

Pisses my wife off too.  People reflexively brake when entering a tunnel, even though the road doesn't narrow and there are signs that say "maintain speed".  One person brakes, and then everyone else has to----------->tunnel traffic.

I think we can all agree there are too many idiots on the road.

That said, I don't use cruise most of the time. But whenever I'm driving for at least an hour, I use it all the time. It increases fuel efficiency, plus I like the semi-autopilot. Cruise has been a boon lately for me since my son went up to Boston. That's a long-derriere ride.

I'm capable of maintaining a constant speed without cruise control, but the people who can't should use it more often. Like you said, it results in a lot of unnecessary overtaking loops.

I used to use cruise control as much as possible when I had my own car, but between that and the navigator I felt I was slipping into autopilot, which made me uncomfortable. Now I just use cruise control when I've got wide open highway.

The only time I use cruise is if I'm making an LA run.  Anyone who has made that trip can tell you, it's easy to fade out even when NOT using cruise control.  Seemingly straight road for the next 30 miles and 85 miles an hour, not the best idea.

I can't use cruise at all under normal circumstances, as has been mentioned, too many stupid people.

I use my cruise control all the time, no matter what the speed is.  I have a couple of long, 25 mph roads on my way to work that are always cop heavy early in the morning, so I just roll down that those sumbitches at a smooth pace.

That's because you're clearly someone who is capable of driving properly and anticipating the road ahead, giving you plenty of time to turn the cruise control off if need be, but in no need of constantly changing your speed up and down and up and down and up and down because you're never quite sure that you're doing it right in the first place.

I was catching a ride upstate with my brother in law and he was following his iPhone directions, we were on the highway in Queens heading right to the bridge that would take us over the river and at the last second he takes the exit before the bridge and starts going east, towards nothing in particular. Then the phone told him to double back towards that bridge after we had gone a couple miles. At that point in the ride I wasn't sure if he knew what he was doing yet, but by the end of the trip it was like this:

I spent $40 bucks on a pair 2 weeks ago. Monday the left earbud popped off and the 2 little wires it hangs by broke off. I brought it to the store and they refused to refund or exchange, even after I made a god damned scene.

They're all on Netflix, and my kid can get on Netflix on his own from the PS3, so he flipped it on one day while I was taking a excrement and has been addicted ever since. I've offered toys and candy to turn it off, but he's steadfast.

this week, on at the movies with MBGreen, he will review the Air Bud series in its entireity.


Air Bud - Instant classic.  kids love it, grouchy old men like IATA hate it, so you know it's good. 5 stars.

Air Bud: Golden Receiver - the highly anticipated sequel that turned this series into a household franchise. the Wayne Chrebet of football dogs. Air Bud is back, in a big way. 5 honks.

Air Bud: World Pup - freak soccer movies

Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch - did not see, but I would rate it somewhere in the range between Field of Dreams and Major League, but with better character development and more laughs.

Air Bud: Spikes Back - Dissappointing finale to the series. Air Bud finishes his vaunted professional sports career as a volleyball player? Also not very realistic as a dog would not make for a great front court prescence. Also did not see this one. 5 stars.

they have a bunch of the air bud ones on netflix. Just reading the titles and descriptions was pretty entertaining for a few minutes.

I come in today because I have 1 pill left and I'm told my appt will be delayed by at least an hour. I've been sitting here for an hour and a half in the exam room. I filled out my paperwork and am staring at the paper he need a to sign for my refills and the flu shot needle my wife nagged me to get.

When did it become a big deal?  When stores started opening on Thanksgiving just one or two years ago.  It was a closed day nationwide up until that point.  There is no reason to be open that day.

I think emergency services and utility companies are slightly more necessary than an extra day of shopping.  A sale which takes place on Thursday could just as easily take place (and used to) the day before.  As for doormen, while I have always found it hilarious that people can't open their own doors for one day, they and residential security guards generally get gifts and tips when working on the holidays.  The same isn't true for retail employees.

It's a big deal because it is killing family traditions without any option to refuse.  You might be surprised since you've said in the past you and your family can't stand more than a day or two together, but a lot of people value holidays.

It's killing family traditions for a small segment of employees in this country. Most people don't work holidays, but as unfortunate as it is, some do. I just don't see what can be done about it. These are private companies who hire at-will employees. If my boss tells me it's suddenly mandatory to work thanksgiving, what am I going to do? Should the government step in? Make it illegal to work on holidays?

I've got a pretty low tolerance for unreasonable work requests, I never would have survived long as a retail employee. Stupidest thing I ever did was driving 3 hours from the Adirondacks at midnight to get home in Binghamton so I could go to work the day after the 4th of July at my shitty warehouse job. When I look back at it, I don't really understand why I didn't just take the next day off.

And I actually had the flexibility to had I asked for it. I can't imagine working for peanuts and being told "you're working Thanksgiving or you're fired" by some sorry store manager who's being harangued by some sorry regional manager who's under pressure from corporate to sustain the new revenue stream they dreamed up on a holiday.

1) Stores telling employees they'll be fired if they don't work on Thanksgiving.

2) People who actually shop on Thanksgiving, especially those who are assholes to the employees.

3) Stupid petitions asking me to boycott stores that are going to be open on Thanksgiving.

Bitch I feel sorry for you, but I'll sure as freak be in Target the next day.

1) It sucks, but if it bothers them so much they should quit and get a job outside of retail.

2) Personal decision to shop that day. Treating the employees like excrement is uncalled for though.

3) Yes, kindly freak off with that nonsense.

I hate Black Friday. One of my biggest annoyances is long lines, large crowds, traffic, and generally waiting around because of congestion. It's the biggest waste of time.

It's killing family traditions for a small segment of employees in this country. Most people don't work holidays, but as unfortunate as it is, some do. I just don't see what can be done about it. These are private companies who hire at-will employees. If my boss tells me it's suddenly mandatory to work thanksgiving, what am I going to do? Should the government step in? Make it illegal to work on holidays?

Lol.  Yes, clearly the logical assumption is that I feel the government should step in.

Like I said, the people who camp out and shop on Thanksgiving are a massive part of the problem and another annoyance I listed.  It's the worst shopping day, too.  Employees are treated like subhuman garbage by deal hunters.  Have you ever seen it?  It's freaking disgusting.  It was bad enough watching people be subjected to it on Black Friday.  Now on Thanksgiving?  I don't see how anyone couldn't be bothered by it (aside from you, obviously).

It sucks, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Iggy is right though, this whole Black Friday nonsense was bad enough a few years ago and it's really gotten out of hand now, some stores starting at 6 pm on Thanksgiving. It's really just a microcosm of what's wrong with a large segment of our country and statement of how wrapped up into commercialism people are nowadays...but that's an argument for another thread.

Unfortunately there are enough people who don't give a excrement, and will go shopping on Thanksgiving, forcing people to work on Thanksgiving, because the company decided that was an appropriate day to have a big sale. It's like a retarded snake eating its own tail.

When you are low man on the totem pole you get stuck working holidays.  That's just how it works in retail.  You might have to work Thanksgiving your first year, but you can almost certainly request it off the next year.  Holiday skeleton crews are almost entirely made up of new people.

Most call centers are 24/7/365 these days.  I have never had to force anyone to work on a holiday.  The financial incentive always gets me more volunteers than I need.

Well, a lot of companies are already doing it.  Several retailers publicly refused to open on Thanksgiving, and public opinion polls show a majority of Americans hate the stores being open on Thanksgiving.  It's done for a minority of shoppers.

Now, what about the people who make those decisions?  Wouldn't it be fair for them to have to work as well?  They set up the massive holiday clusterfuck and then go spend the holidays with their families.  My father in law has a great policy.  He's the CEO of a hospital, where employees are an obvious necessity on holidays.  You know what he does?  He takes the morning on Christmas and Thanksgiving to go in and actually thank them and brings gifts.  That's for a necessary holiday worker.  The retail ones get treated like garbage and are threatened for wanting to even REQUEST time with their families.  It's not just shitty, it's sick.

No.  Thanksgiving was never a retail day until two years ago, and this year as stores are keeping regular hours, employees are being told they must work.  There are long term employees being forced to work, and most retailers are not allowing requests for the day off.  That's not just how it works.  It's a new thing, and it's totally unnecessary.  Christmas Eve?  Necessary shopping day.  Thanksgiving?  Hardly.

Dude, 6 PM I don't have as much of a problem with.  A lot of stores are EXTENDING their hours.  There are stores opening at 6 AM.  6 PM?  Eat an early meal with the family and enjoy most of the day.  6 AM shift and you're working early Black Friday as well.

Kmart is the big one doing 6 AM, and they're refusing to allow requests.  You're going to have miserable people getting excrement on all day.  When I was in high school I worked for a year at a pizza place.  We were open Christmas Eve until 8 PM, but it was slow.  It was actually fun, and we were given stuff to work.  My sister in law works for Disney.  She worked Christmas because they were each given food, posters, and free movie passes.  It was an easy day.  These people are being told to give up their holiday for an unnecessary shopping day and excrement and mistreatment at the hands of the worst excrement this country has to offer.  Seriously, Black Friday doorbuster shoppers are freaking animals.

Isn't that the truth. People have been trampled in the name of Black Friday, never will I be a party to that nonsense.

Apparently, it's common practice for companies to say you can not use personal time during the holidays. I know of several people where that's the case. The only thing is they're not required to work the actual holiday itself, so I guess that's ok. That said, there are no vacations at this time of the year and such.

Some guy who worked in Walmart got trampled to death because....wait for it....the savages busted the doors and the plexiglass out onto the guy and charged in the store at the Green Acres Mall in Valley Stream.

It would be funny if Walmart had a realistic screen image of a fully stocked store on their front window.  When the animals bust down the doors, they immediately find that it isn't a fully stocked store, but a giant, deep pit that they immediately fall into.  At the bottom of the pit a giant screen is setup up that plays constant video of people eating a plentiful Thanksgiving dinner with their families as they starve to death in the pit.

It should also have a single exit that they can walk out of to leave any time they like, except that the exit has massive spinning blades on either side and only someone who is a normal size can fit between the blades on each side with getting sliced up. There will be buffet tables and fridges filled with lots of food, healthy and really unhealthy, as well as treadmills, exercise bikes and weights. If they adopt a healthy lifestyle they'll eventually get small enough to leave, but while they continue to be fat cunts they're stuck there.

I despise that stores are opening on Thanksgiving and while I certainly blame the executives who are deep into their post-turkey coma when their employees are reporting for work, I blame one entity more than all others: Amazon.

Amazon's ability to serve people deals with their dessert on Thanksgiving have forced brick-and-mortar stores to retaliate to capture the ever-decreasing overall holiday expenditure. It'll get worse too. Has anyone noticed how many online vendors have been running "Early Black Friday" deals all month? It's a bitter competition for every single dollar. Don't be surprised when in a year or two stores are open "Until 6AM on Thanksgiving so you can get a head start on your shopping!"

I'm kind of pissed off that my wife has to work Thanksgiving, but fortunately: 1) she now works from home and 2) in trade, her boss is giving her the first Christmas Eve off she's had in 7 years, so it's a lot more bearable.

Still, any non-essential personnel working on major holidays is bullshit.

Sports fans saying "this puts cricket/football/tiddlywinks into perspective" after the untimely death of a player. No it doesn't, not unless you had your perspective so massively out of whack that you actually at any point thought that the sport was as important as someone's life, in which case you need to stop being all wistful and deep and recognise that you're a freaking idiot with a tenuous grasp on the realities of life.

Btw being sick is terrible but it's even worse when you're studying for an evidence final. My throat's on fire and my nose keeps trying to shove snot into the back of my throat if i don't blow into a tissue every 20 seconds. I got into a sneezing fit in the library and was met with about 10 icy glares (not one freaking God bless you. manners?!?!!) so I'm studying from home which is always a great idea when I have the distractions staring right at me. And on top of that I'm trying to learn about a rule that basically has 20 exceptions and then exceptions to those exceptions. freak off hearsay.

Johnny just to clarify, the second part was extreme sarcasm and the third was taken directly from a Hulk Hogan promo when he's getting ready to take on the Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania 6. Although, I actually like the whole practice of sending and receiving Christmas cards. EXCEPT from people that insist on giving you a freaking list of bullet points as to what happened in 2014. "Suzie got into Seton Hall! Ted bought a pre-owned Daewoo Llanos!" Put that excrement on social media when it happens cause IDGAF.

Christmas Cards are just so damn impersonal.  They're like an even less personal precursor to the narcissism of Facebook, which I've been guilty of in the past: "here's how awesome my family is.  If you're not us, feel bad about yourself!"  I actually considered it relatively harmless until I heard about a neighbor of mine growing up.  Her husband is well known and loved, so they get tons of Christmas cards every year.  Hundreds.  Their son suffered from mental illness and took his own life last year.  For her, the act of opening cards was too much and too painful.  There were absolutely no personal messages, which is normal, but not one "Sorry this must be tough", etc.  Again, not something anyone does.  It was all smiling Christmas card photos of happy families all together and they just reminded her of how broken hers is.  I'd imagine that happens to a lot of people.  They get those cards showing everything all merry and bright with no personalization and it's a reminder of how much worse off they are.

So yeah.  freak Christmas cards.  At least Facebook doesn't force itself into your mailbox.

At that point? Way too much. And it extended into the night so I had to smoke in the hopes it would counterbalance the effect and I'd go to sleep. It counterbalanced my lack of appetite. That was about it.

Feel better Puck. Hope you did well on the project. I went through the same thing last year when I wrote a brief, I took the half a grade penalty because I knew the difference in 16 hours was going to be a excrement product as opposed to something that could still fetch me a B.

That's terrible. People not having basic sense of empathy for others is why we can't have nice things. I use a photo of my dog, nobody wants to see me anyway, but point well taken.


I have an annoyance. Italian mothers. Overbearing creatures they are. Don't get me wrong I love my mom but I'm getting hitched and you would not believe how personally she's taking it that she had no say in the venue or anything (my parents aside from the rehearsal dinner aren't spending a dime.) Every little thing is a slight. It's a major pain in the derriere. My parents really needed to have a daughter to keep this heat off of me.

Haha holy excrement. Well, I only mean the ones from over there. And not the ones who speak any English, since only nerds or more "internationally minded (troubled)" speak it. My ex said something like "If you cheat on me, I'll get angry." Hardly threatening.

The visitor line at immigration is wayyy shorter than the U.S. Citizen and green card holder line. There's something wrong about this.

She declared her name to all and promised to tweet about her ordeal, and asked for the names of all the custom officials.

Got her name at least.

She was hysterical. Like having us wait an hour was cruel and unusual punishment. The officer said something like "okay just wait and we'll see you in a bit". She took that to mean that he was threatening to bring her in. "Did you hear that people? They want to lock me up in a room!" The guy was like "I meant when you go through customs." "No! I know what you meant! I have witnesses!"

Ugh.

And she just got back from Iceland, which is like 5hrs. Not like she's been on a plane for 16hrs.

Irish girls aren't even in the same conversation.

I grew up around a ton of Irish girls too, so it's not like it's from lack of exposure. The crazy Irish girls are just typical white girl crazy with a higher alcohol tolerance and propensity to party. outside of that they're the same

The problem is this:

There's a thin line between fiery and batshit insane.
But also with subdued girls, if the girl doesn't have a backbone, loyalty isn't going to be strong or lasting. If they're subdued with you, it's likely it'll happen with somebody else. Those are the chickenshit, needy type of cheat on you weak girls. My last chick was like this. And I'll never go that route again. Of course she was a white girl. It's just a general weakness of character that many submissive chicks have.

Latin chicks are *generally* intensely loyal but also insanely jealous because all latin men cheat. That was the issue with the japanese/Brazilian ex , and a lot of other latin girls I've dated but in hindsight I'll take that any day over a spineless, chickenshit coward.

And yes, no one fucks like Latin women.

Structurally we think it's pretty good, but as well as tearing out the top floor (which we had planned to do immediately) we're also having to replace the entire kitchen (which we had not planned to do immediately). Fully updated the house is probably worth $100-150K more than we paid for it, so it's not like it's dead money - it's just expenditure we hadn't budgeted for.

This morning when I got to the bus stop there was a piece of paper taped to it that said the bus wouldn't be stopping there because of an NYPD funeral and that I'd have to catch it at another stop over a mile down the street. So I started walking, and every bus stop I passed on the way there had the same time, and no buses were in sight. Then I finally got to that stop and it also had the same sign... and so did every bus stop past it. So I just kept walking.

Finally I saw one of them and I was fortunate to be just reaching a stop when it came by. I got on and it was full of all the people I see every morning. So I had no idea if the bus made all of its regular stops in spite of the signs, or if all of these people just happened to know where to find this magical temporary detour stop. Anyway, I rode the bus the remaining 0.2 miles (after walking 1.5) to the subway and felt like an poopchute.

I still don't know what the deal with the funeral was. When I was walking, I passed the big spanish church and the sidewalk was packed with local news crews waiting for something, but there was no sign of any procession yet. Officer Ramos's funeral isn't until tomorrow.  So they put up signs everywhere saying that public transportation was going to be shut down all day on that street because of the wake in the afternoon. Good thing I'm getting out of town tonight for the next few days because there's a solid chance some assholes could make things messy tomorrow.

Maybe it's the way he wrote it. Be annoyed by welfare abusers, not people on welfare. If they are "decked out in the latest gear, new smartphone, etc", they're not just people on welfare. They're thieves.

This may be anecdotal (it is) but the people I know (family members) who are on welfare, are sure as hell abusing it.

Lol you don't think there are people on welfare and food stamps that could walk into a Caddy dealership and plunk down cash for a new CTS? Or they have 2 kids and get food stamps for a family of ten. I am in the welfare abuse capital of the world here and it goes on all the time. Medicare fraud is even worse.

So it's not possible to be on welfare and work off the books, or sling rock?

Because them working the system and knowing how to spend cash, pretty much allows them to milk the system

OK, so we're talking about welfare abuse. Good. That's not "people on welfare", that's thieves. Let's get our categorisation right here.

The point I'm making is that the characterisation of people on welfare as being layabouts living a life of luxury on your dime is unfair - welfare is barely enough to feed and clothe an individual. Someone who is on welfare and "decked out in the latest gear, new smartphone, etc" is not doing so with their legitimate welfare payments, they're doing it through illegitimate means, be it dealing, working cash jobs or defrauding the welfare system through claiming multiple payments. In that case your annoyance should be with people who are drug dealers, thieves or fraudsters, not with "people on welfare".

It's a difference of semantics, but I agree with you.  Drug dealers, thieves, and fraudsters annoy me.  People using welfare to do that annoy me 1000 times more.  Of course they are thieves.  I have no issue at all with people on welfare that are using it to help them get by while trying to get on their feet again.  That's why it exists.  I have huge issue with people using it beyond what the intention of it is.

My house had decades old carpet on two levels (split) with hardwood underneath. Taking about the staples was absolute hell.

I put a laminate floor down on a lower level that had an ugly tile, and the process isn't too bad once you get the hang of it. There will be some infuriating trial and error early on.

I actually got into an argument with one of my dad's friends over that. After Hurricane Sandy I mentioned how the L train was shut down for a week because the tunnels got flooded, and he said that didn't make sense because the el train is above ground. I tried to explain it to him but he wasn't having it. He was from Maryland so I was thinking "hey how about you take my freaking word on the train I take every day?"

When I was in college my housemate had a job at Panera for a little while, one night he came home with a giant bag full of all the leftover bread for that day. It took us a while to get through it all. Somehow none of it got moldy.

How long was it? You can't exceed 100m for a Cat 5.

Normally it would take me about five minutes to make a cable, this took half an hour. The most annoying thing is that there's no logical explanation as to why it wouldn't work as T568A.

Because I don't need Cat6 speeds, and I have Cat5e cable and ends lying around.

Why don't you just buy a new one?

Because making them costs a tenth as much, and I don't have to go and get them or wait for them to come in. Also, this one is going from the living room to the basement through a small hole I've drilled in the floor so I wouldn't be able to fit a plug end through anyway.

Depends what you're plugging into. If the patch panel or switch uses B then A won't work. B is the norm

Have some toilet reading: http://www.cableorganizer.com/articles/difference-between-T568A-and-T568B.html

Generally A or B both work as long as they're the same on both sides. You can't do A on one tip and B on the other unless you also know magic.

You know, I hadn't even thought about that - I know you can't mix the schemes, but it hadn't occurred to me that the switch itself might care. It's connecting a TV to a router, so maybe the router had a problem with it. Thanks for that.

Parking in my neighborhood.

If you still haven't cleaned the snow off your street-parked car after several days, you clearly don't freaking need a car and you're just ruining it for everyone else.

If your driveway is still completely covered in snow after several days, parking in front of it should be fair game.

On a similar, but non-snow related note...

A single family with young (or no) kids that have 4 cars.  Rather than put 2 in the garage and 2 in the driveway, they park 1 or 2 in the damn street.  Do you really need to inconvenience the entire neighborhood because you're not sure what car you want to drive next?

Follow-up:

We came home from the doctor last night and it looked like there was going to be a spot on our block. But when I got closer, I saw that there was originally a gap big enough for 2.5 cars, that now had a car parked exactly in the middle of it, leaving room for 0.75 cars on either side.

I meant to write some expletives in the dirt on their car but by the time I parked elsewhere after circling for ages I forgot to do it.

I only recently relented and now let my wife throw away a dollar whenever the Powerball/Megamillions goes to $250M or higher. I gave up trying to explain the statistical (un)likelihood of actually winning.

If you save one dollar a week rather than spend it on lottery games, at the end of the year you'll have $52 more dollars in your pocket than if you had played every week. I say it all the time to everyone who plays: you're basically setting that dollar bill on fire.

And I always counter that argument by suggesting that you look at the basic math.

I spend $10 on lottery tickets when I remember, probably every couple of weeks. Let's call it $250 a year. If I didn't spend that, I'd have an extra $250 a year (my winnings just get recycled back into the lottery). What could I do with $250 that would profoundly and fundamentally change my life for the better?

Let's look at it over ten years. $2500 is an OK vacation somewhere sunny. Nice to have, but is one additional vacation every ten years going to profoundly and fundamentally change my life for the better? Is it a vacation I wouldn't otherwise be able to afford? How about over fifty years? $12,500 is an OK used car. In the grand scheme of my life this money has next to zero opportunity cost.

I put it to you that unless you are on the breadline and every dollar and cent counts, you're stupid not to play the lottery. Sure, the chances of winning are infinitesimally small, but giving yourself a small chance to profoundly and fundamentally change your life for the better at the cost of absolutely nothing is a no-brainer decision. You're an idiot if you don't play.

As do I. The problem with the stock market is twofold; 1, it needs a much higher initial investment, and 2, it requires my involvement and thought and effort. The beauty of the lottery is that the stakes are incredibly low and the likelihood of a return exactly the same for everyone.

Tossing away $1 a week is as bad as tossing away $100.  Irrelevant!

Where do they get the other $8 a week?  That's 8 times the precious dollar they're wasting!  The thought of someone making the trip to drop their $4 in an IRA makes me think of that kid who saved his allowance and tooth fairy money.  Apparently that was dcm.
The trip to drop their 4$?

A referee got mad at me the other day because I didn't stand up to shake his hand.

I didn't do it on purpose.  I was showing a female teacher how to work the scoreboard because the bundle of sticks that usually does it no-showed.  He walked up to me when I was in the middle of explaining something, so I just extended my hand, said hello, and went about my business.

He started saying stuff about me being disrespectful.  Shut the freak up and watch my team win by 25 points, black poopchute. 

JE won't like this very much, but if I wasn't a young white coach, it wouldn't have been a problem.  Out of the 8 schools we've faced, I am one of two white coaches.  We've probably had three white officials in 15 total games.

Agreed. I've done that quite often.

In Heismanberg's situation, I'd probably understand that he was busy at the time and it wasn't meant to offend. There's a difference between being too lazy to stand up (or willing not standing) and unintentionally not standing because you're already preoccupied.

Ha. Yesterday I was at home all day bar a twenty minute trip to the nearby Canada Post outlet to collect a parcel that they had tried and failed to deliver on Tuesday. During that twenty minute window, they tried to deliver another parcel, and left me another "sorry we missed you" note. I swear the fuckers must have been waiting round the corner until I went out so they could continue their elaborate practical joke.

I walked out one day to find a delivery attempt that was allegedly made 3 minutes earlier.  I walked out to the street and saw the Fed Ex truck right down the street. Chased him down and said "I was sitting right by the door getting ready to leave.  How the hell did you get by me?"  He just mumbled and got my package and apologized.

I think someone should do an experiment.  Use a thermometer, check the temp before the bulb is touched, check the temp after the bulb is released, and then stick the thermometer in JE's derriere and slap him for pretending he can notice a half degree difference.

It's the principle. If I can't even trust them to hold a wine glass properly, how can I trust them to properly recommend and open a bottle?

Depends on a) the restaurant and b) the day of the week. At a good restaurant it will often be because the chef found a particularly good quality ingredient at a supplier, but even at a good restaurant the fish special on a Sunday is probably to be avoided.

Any good restaurant would easily rather toss product than serve old proteins. But there are a lot of bad restaurants.

Most specials at good restaurants are the best food available - products that are too expensive to keep on the menu full-time but are good for social media, recipes that chefs are actually excited about trying and experimenting with, product that distributors don't have access too most of the time/are very seasonal.

When someone refers to what I'd consider a non-notable possession by its brand name, eg. calling your bottle of water an Evian.

There is a point where it becomes less silly. You can call your watch a Rolex but you wouldn't call a Casio by name. But if you call your jacket a Northface or your boots Timberlands then you sound like a douche. The iPhone is no longer novel enough to necessitate being called anything other than a phone (this goes for any phone but that's the most common example).

Or go to a store that specialises in menswear for tall guys. I have the reverse problem, shirts that fit my neck and shoulders are too long in the sleeves because of my stumpy stature.

It's my understanding that most places assume you're fat if you're tall.  I know a lot of people who have to get a ton of tailoring done because of the issue.  They can't find anything that fits.  It's an easy solution if you are in a job that pays well.

The sized L/XL shirts aren't really "dress shirts" in the wear with jacket and tie mold. If you get the true dress shirts with the neck/arm sizes they'll usually be a little bit longer. If you get a more tailored fit it might also affect the length some too.

I am on a family plan that my sister up in Boston runs. Recently my phone broke so I went to a Sprint store about buying a new phone considering I was due for an upgrade. I was told since I was not the account holder, I could not buy it there. So my sister tries to order one online and have me pick it up at the store, however that is also apparently that they cannot do. Instead she has to order one and have it shipped to my apartment. How is that any different than me picking it up at a store where I can get one ASAP?

When I get blatantly cut off and the other driver gives ME a dirty look.

Driving home 15 minutes ago, I was driving home in the left lane and a woman comes flying around the corner in a brand new Navigator to try to beat the car to the right of me.  Trouble is, she turns so fast that she ends up across BOTH lanes.  Had to swerve into thankfully absent oncoming traffic.  She stopped next to me at the next light and sees me staring at her.  She rolls her window down and says "WHAT!?!"  I said "Learn to freaking drive.  My kids are in the car you dumb bitch."

It was then that I realized 1) the irony of cussing to make a point about being responsible around children and 2) that I had briefly forgotten that my son's friend was also in the car.

Sashimi is a totally different animal. No, good sashimi I do not dip into anything. I have to be honest unless you go to some really high dollar play it's very difficult to get primo stuff. In fact we got the best sashimi catching our own and bringing it to the restaurant and bartering for the chef to cut it up, obviously the chef took the rest.

Agreed.

With Sashimi the wasabi (very small amount) is the glue between the slice of fish and the rice ball.  Unless the chef puts sauce on it, leave it alone.  It tastes the way it is supposed to taste.

If it's really high quality stuff, you don't want to step on it with anything.

That really depends - high quality sushi places will pre-season certain pieces but many also give custom sauces that you can dip yourself, and 'un-dressed' sushi or sashimi can always be dipped in soy sauce, even at the fanciest places. Salt brings out flavor - unless you're really into subtle foods, raw fish can often be better with a bit of soy sauce.

Diluting your wasabi into your soy sauce isn't recommended/"correct", but the importance of that is debatable with fake wasabi.

Pretty much this. Go nuts with soy if you're having a California roll etc, but rarely is it ever needed for quality nigiri sushi, especially when made fresh in front of you.

I personally don't use soy sauce since it's overkill, but love putting a tiny bit of wasabi on each piece before I eat them.

Now I want sushi.

So I have no idea how it could have gotten stolen. It literally would have to have been through chase. And I can't see why some criminal mastermind would hack chase just to buy freaking pizza on my credit card.

Bought a stolen credit card to buy pizza?

Though the first thing they did was spend 5$ at metropcs which made it blatantly obvious that something funky was up. Buying minutes or a burner phone or something

I am not going to pretend to know how it works, but I am pretty sure I would use it as many times as I could as fast as I could.  It's not like I would make a charge, and then put it in my wallet for a while.

They test the card to see if it gets immediately picked up.  CC companies don't give a freak if they eat the charge for some pizza.  The crooks are trying to see if the alert gets triggered before they get busted trying to make a big purchase.

It depends on the bank and customer, but they usually make a series of small transactions and if none get hit they'll try for a big one.  I use mine so regularly that Chase is freaking on it.  I have never had a single purchase approved that I didn't actually make.  Three CCs stolen.

So finally moved into my new apt. Got my speakers and sound system hooked up, all the furniture, everything.

I had my vacuum cleaner plugged into a power strip, and after a minute all the lights in the apt went off, including the electronics. Turns out the breaker was tripped. I then found out that all outlets, except for the kitchen, hook up to the same 15 amp breaker. Plugging the vacuum directly into the outlet seemed to work for whatever reason.

I don't know enough about electronics, but it doesn't sound like having all outlets hooked to one single breaker is a good idea.

It depends. I don't know code for where you live, but here I think it's a maximum of 12 outlets on a single 15 amp circuit. Low draw items like electronic devices have a negligible impact, but something like a vacuum will hit it hard so if you have a lot of devices on the same circuit I can see that a vacuum might put you over the edge.

Your kitchen outlets might very well be a 20 amp circuit because things like microwaves, blenders and extractor fans draw a lot more power, so Badger's suggestion is a sensible one. Did you buy the place or are you renting?

7 outlets. Two in the kitchen, two in the living room, one in the bathroom, and two in the bedroom.

I tested them out using trial and error yesterday. Left everything on and began turning off breakers. There are 6 breakers, one for the kitchen, four don't do anything, and one basically shuts off everything in the apt including the lights.

Does your apartment have its own hot water tank and/or furnace? If so then they must be on their own breakers.

Also, have you tested every outlet? As Badger says there may well be one designated for a high draw unit like an AC, that would account for another one of the breakers that you think is unused. Try flipping all four of those off and leaving the main breaker for the outlets and lights on, then go round and plug something into each outlet in turn and see if there's one that doesn't work. If there is, leave your test device plugged in and flip each of the four breakers in turn until the outlet comes on.

Or, y'know, call the freaking landlord.

Looks like the electricians screwed up when wiring the breaker. They put two 20 amp outlets in the kitchen and one 15 amp line running across outlets in the living room to bedroom. Found a hidden 20 in the bedroom for the AC there though. They're going to run the extra 20 in the kitchen into the living room for my AC unit there, and change the living room/bedroom 15 into a 20.

I'm terrible for doing that, and then compounding the sin by having no recollection why I was calling you when you do call me back. I'm really sorry, I've done it forever and I know it's awful.

What makes it even worse is that I've made a lot of money over the last twenty years from selling voicemail systems. I'm the worst advert for them.

OK, I'm going to do you a solid then and tell you how to get round typing the PIN in every time you want to access your mobile voicemail. Go into your settings and find the voicemail number (on Android it's Menu > Settings > My Device > Call > Voicemail Settings > Voicemail Number, I don't know about iPhone), then at the end of the number add Pause (under the Symbol key on Android) followed by your PIN. Save and exit. Now when you dial voicemail, it will automatically enter the PIN for you.

You can thank me in beer.

Now I just had to try this...

For Windows phone, you have to create a new contact.  Unfortunately, you can't get the pause to stick on the voice mail settings.

Hold the '.' key to bring up the menu and insert a comma, then your pin.  So *86,1234 and save.  I named it 'VM' and made it a tile on my home screen.

Reminds me of this kid Kaid in my daughter's class.  First day of school I see the name and think someone had a really stupid freaking way of spelling Cade.  Year started and my daughter comes home and says "There's this boy in my class who just runs up and screams at people and hits them."  I was like "What the freak is this bullshit?"  She tells us that his name is Kaid and he doesn't speak English.  I knew it was his first year because his mom wears a burka to school every damn day and I had never seen anyone do that when my daughter was in K or 1st grade.  So, I keep asking her every day if this kid is hitting her, and she says no.  She tells us that he doesn't speak any English and she thinks his family moved here from somewhere with an S.  I'm guessing Saudi Arabia, someone else says Syria, one says Sudan.  Can't figure it out.

Anyway, kid literally cannot speak or read English.  2nd grade and he's as low and remedial as it gets.  My daughter says, though, that he smiles when he hits people.  Like it's a game.  And he doesn't really hurt anyone.  It's not like that.  A few months in, they have biography night at the school.  Mom doesn't show up, but Dad is there.  Regular guy in shorts and a t-shirt of all things while his wife has to wear a burka.  Kid does his biography speech on Muhammad.  It's supposed to be a historical figure, and he chooses Muhammad.  Ok.

Fast forward to last week.  I take my kids to jiu jitsu and there are Kaid and his brother Agbal or Agdal or Akbal (I don't freaking know what the kid is telling me his name is).  They're laughing and smiling and doing great in class, and both of them have great English at this point.  I've been in the class and seen that Kaid gets along with the other kids well, but the whole burka thing led me to think they'd be more insular than I thought.  So, I talk to their dad.  Turns out they moved here from Saudi Arabia in the summer after trying for a while.  Guy couldn't stand it there any more and says a lot of people are desperate to get out of the middle east.  Some can't get permission, some are tied by family, but not many people are happy living there.  This is a guy who is obviously religious enough for his wife to wear something banned in a lot of Muslim countries.

So, there's that.  If this guy is telling me that people in the region hate the way things are going, I can't imagine many of the people who actually made it over here are desperate to see ISIS succeed.

Also, I still don't have a freaking clue what the dad's name is.  Seriously, just write it down and I'll figure it out, dude.

Anyway, yeah, it's fucked up that a minority controls the majority, but that's kind of how it goes.  If people were blowing excrement up around me and could kill my family in an instant, I'm not sure how vocally I'd oppose them either.  Call it cowardice, but my preservation starts with myself and my family.

Reminds me of this kid Kaid in my daughter's class.  First day of school I see the name and think someone had a really stupid freaking way of spelling Cade.  Year started and my daughter comes home and says "There's this boy in my class who just runs up and screams at people and hits them."  I was like "What the freak is this bullshit?"  She tells us that his name is Kaid and he doesn't speak English.  I knew it was his first year because his mom wears a burka to school every damn day and I had never seen anyone do that when my daughter was in K or 1st grade.  So, I keep asking her every day if this kid is hitting her, and she says no.  She tells us that he doesn't speak any English and she thinks his family moved here from somewhere with an S.  I'm guessing Saudi Arabia, someone else says Syria, one says Sudan.  Can't figure it out.

Anyway, kid literally cannot speak or read English.  2nd grade and he's as low and remedial as it gets.  My daughter says, though, that he smiles when he hits people.  Like it's a game.  And he doesn't really hurt anyone.  It's not like that.  A few months in, they have biography night at the school.  Mom doesn't show up, but Dad is there.  Regular guy in shorts and a t-shirt of all things while his wife has to wear a burka.  Kid does his biography speech on Muhammad.  It's supposed to be a historical figure, and he chooses Muhammad.  Ok.

Fast forward to last week.  I take my kids to jiu jitsu and there are Kaid and his brother Agbal or Agdal or Akbal (I don't freaking know what the kid is telling me his name is).  They're laughing and smiling and doing great in class, and both of them have great English at this point.  I've been in the class and seen that Kaid gets along with the other kids well, but the whole burka thing led me to think they'd be more insular than I thought.  So, I talk to their dad.  Turns out they moved here from Saudi Arabia in the summer after trying for a while.  Guy couldn't stand it there any more and says a lot of people are desperate to get out of the middle east.  Some can't get permission, some are tied by family, but not many people are happy living there.  This is a guy who is obviously religious enough for his wife to wear something banned in a lot of Muslim countries.

So, there's that.  If this guy is telling me that people in the region hate the way things are going, I can't imagine many of the people who actually made it over here are desperate to see ISIS succeed.

Also, I still don't have a freaking clue what the dad's name is.  Seriously, just write it down and I'll figure it out, dude.

Women are required to wear I believe at least a hijab in Saudi Arabia. It may be up to a burqa, not 100% on that

But of course the people are fed up, basically every single Arab country is led by an incompetent fool/dictator and once the oil money runs out, those countries are going to regress even further

Administrative Professionals Day and Earth Day are both today.  How does that happen?  Should've gone paperless and given the grumpy assistant a handful of dirt instead of shelling out $25 for a Starbucks card and saying something nice in a greeting card.

My boss bought me a pastrami sandwich the size of a football for this last year.

Someone tried to start a fight with me (or possibly worse) on my way back to work after lunch today.

I was standing by the edge of the street waiting for the walk signal with a couple coworkers, and this guy behind us is listening to his headphones and moving around. Suddenly I get rammed in the back and I stumble forward a few steps into the street. I turn around and the guy is back to his shuffling around like nothing happened. I look at my coworkers (two small Asian women) and they both have confused looks on their faces. I figured the guy must have tripped and fallen into me, and didn't apologize.

The signal changes, I start crossing and then he does it AGAIN, not as hard, but clearly intentionally. He speeds up and walks past me, and looks over his shoulder to give me a dirty look, and I give him the death stare right back, and the college-bound honor student who dindu nuffin wrong went on his way to bible study.

When my coworkers and I had the "wtf was that about?" conversation, one of them thought the guy was trying to push me into traffic, but there weren't any cars coming so I don't think it was his intention.

The dude was obviously looking for a fight. Probably got beat down himself and looking to take it out on someone. Just waiting for you to do anything even resembling trying to come at him. Good on you for keeping your cool. Though it does suck to have someone disrespect you like that and not being able to do anything about it.

On the first day of orientation they told us fights break out between the teenagers in the area often enough and to not get involved. So it wasn't shocking.

I was a bit thrown since it was pretty much the first time since 2012 where someone was that much of an poopchute to me (I told a bum outside my office on the UES that I didn't have any money to give him and he started screaming and ranting at me).

They didn't give you any choice.  It's not stealing if you have a legal way of watching it that simply isn't feasible.  I tried to use the NBCSN app to watch the game, since I subscribe to the channel, and it told me I wasn't a subscriber.  I missed 20 minutes of the Rangers game because I didn't have another option.  I'd have streamed it if I could.  Came home, turned on the TV to the freaking channel I subscribe to, and caught the rest.

That sucks, I have never had any problems with the NBCSN app when they aren't blacking out the game on me. Luckily during the first round when all the games were on regional sports networks someone was streaming the games on a youtube live channel so I was able to watch the games in good quality anyway.

I expressed my view, and my experiences. Like any other substance, a multitude of experiences exist. I am far from alone in mine and it's a position that needs to be understood, something I believe is in danger of being lost in the current media whitewash. I'm not the one dismissing others' views as flaws or as being flat out wrong.

Can we not do this again? It was boring last time and I doubt it's going to be any more fun this time.

When's the last time you smoked?

And do you know the difference between a sativa dominant or indica dominant strain? The effects are entirely different.  The latter is much more likely to make you feel "lazy"

Pot has changed ever since the medical/legal community has gotten big. It's cleaner, the effects are more specific and targeted, and considering how many people take anti anxiety meds etc it's a much better medicinal alternative for things than prescription pills.


It's funny that no one would criticize anybody for having a beer at the end of the day but smoke a bowl and it's an issue for some people still? weird

Same with hotels, I hate that excrement.  Some douchebag on tripadvisor will give a hotel 1 star because the bathroom has one speck of dirt in the corner behind the door or they only got 3 extra towels instead of 4.  But the bed was comfortable and the price was reasonable.

We went through a couple of fairly significant acquisitions and needed to standardise on a single platform, I assume that it was less expensive to roll it into a single MS licensing stream than it was to extend the Gmail licensing.

I'm finding the O365 web interface to be painfully slow. They've clearly tried to ape Gmail in the way the interface runs and is managed, but in typical MS fashion they've missed the point; Google do so well because the interface is clean and simple with a lot of features in the background, whereas O365 tries to shove everything up front and in your face.

No, I don't get that. The difference is pretty obvious.

In Tommy's defence though, and I mean this genuinely, if you live in Manhattan how many bees are you likely to see? I used to see them all the time in the 'burbs but I don't think I've ever seen them downtown, here or in the UK.

Went to get coffee this morning and the woman in front of me wants everyone to know she's a real estate agent working on some big sale.  She's talking loudly on her phone and when she gets to the front, can't be bothered to go on hold.  Poor girl behind the counter has to watch as the woman snaps her fingers and points at the menu.  Nobody has a clue what she's trying to order.  The girl starts running through coffee items and the woman is rolling her hand like she's shuffling through them before throwing up a stop when the girl gets to what she wants.  She pulls out her card and holds it out.  The girl asks for a name for the order and the woman points at her name on the card.  When the girl asks if she's a rewards member, she shoves the card further forward angrily.  Ordered her stuff with absolutely no verbal communication.  When her drink was ready, they asked the girl at the register how to pronounce the name.  The girl said "I don't know, she didn't actually say it" like she was embarrassed.  It took 4 times calling her name for the woman to come pick it up.

Went to get coffee this morning and the woman in front of me wants everyone to know she's a real estate agent working on some big sale.  She's talking loudly on her phone and when she gets to the front, can't be bothered to go on hold.  Poor girl behind the counter has to watch as the woman snaps her fingers and points at the menu.  Nobody has a clue what she's trying to order.  The girl starts running through coffee items and the woman is rolling her hand like she's shuffling through them before throwing up a stop when the girl gets to what she wants.  She pulls out her card and holds it out.  The girl asks for a name for the order and the woman points at her name on the card.  When the girl asks if she's a rewards member, she shoves the card further forward angrily.  Ordered her stuff with absolutely no verbal communication.  When her drink was ready, they asked the girl at the register how to pronounce the name.  The girl said "I don't know, she didn't actually say it" like she was embarrassed.  It took 4 times calling her name for the woman to come pick it up.

Holy excrement what an poopchute. It sucks that coffee places prep your drink in full view because that bitch certainly deserved some extra phlegm in her latte.

Yeah.  The biggest thing about yuppies was their overwhelming absorption with what other people thought of them.  Needing to impress people and cultivate image.  The truly wealthy assholes don't give a freak what you think of them.  That's the difference.  They have an utter disregard for everyone who can't do something for them, and they excrement on those people mercilessly with no regard for humanity or an ounce of empathy.  The worst are basically sadists who can act in the open and with impunity.

freak those assholes. I don't mind if people need to walk but do it in 7/8.

I used to train at a track in Ottawa and once saw a dude jogging along in lane 1 THE WRONG freaking WAY. A couple of people told him to run the other way and he ignored them, a couple of minutes later I heard a commotion and looked around - a group of fairly serious tri-guys had decided to just run straight into him and send him flying, at which point he got punchy.

He's not killing anybody or anything like that, but he's causing outrage with his misinformation and slanted racism against white people.

I don't care if the weight is a little bit over, but if I ask for a pound of something and the lazy deli worker acts like it's the end of the world to walk three feet to slice one or two more slices, then I'm going to complain.

Do your freaking job or go home.

You went from a 500 pound gorilla behind a keyboard to a 90 year old Jewish broad from Cemetery Village real quick. Lol

I hate when it takes them a freaking hour to slice half a pound. You should see the slow pokes they have cutting cold cuts down here. Pay then by the slice.

There's a little Asian lady who works on the deli counter at my local grocery store, every time she serves me she puts the first couple of slices aside, slices the amount I asked for, prints the ticket and then puts the first two slice in the packet as well. To start with I put it down to my dashing good looks and charming English accent, but it turns out she does it for everyone. Guess she just hates her employer.

I find Blunt the best looking of the three and there is no question if they're attractive or not (the first 2) that's silly. Although Maggy Piggy is better looking than Gerpiggy, I think, but that's like asking what smells better dogshit or catshit.

Cato if you're attracted to ugly broads bang a pig or two and get it out if your system for when you have a uniform.

It's possible.

Celiac is (fairly) rare clinically , so I react the same way you do when I hear the average person obsess over gluten.

Migraines are tricky though. There are certain trigger foods and many involve sulfites and histamines.

My younger brother is a Celiac (and has been eating GF for ~15 years), he used to eat GF stuff imported from Italy because there was a huge population of them in Italy even that long ago due to a heavily bread-based diet, apparently. I definitely think there's some validity to it though there are obviously a lot of people who just claim to be GF and have no idea what they're doing

Except you can actually prove someone has celiac disease.

Both a biopsy (gold standard) and blood test can show it.

Less than 1% of the population has celiac disease, but something like 39% of people have tried gluten free diets.

Funny how ESPN and the NFL pump it up. It's gambling. Finally after all these years they've managed to circumvent things.

 But somehow sports gambling is still frowned upon?

Quite a trick they pulled off.

In 2006, the federal government passed a law called the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act that established fantasy sports as a "game of skill" and not a "game of chance." The law says it's legal if it:

(I) is not dependent solely on the outcome of any single sporting event or non-participant's singular individual performance in any single sporting event;
(II) has an outcome that reflects the relative knowledge of the participants, or their skill at physical reaction or physical manipulation (but not chance), and, in the case of a fantasy or simulation sports game, has an outcome that is determined predominantly by accumulated statistical results of sporting events, including any non-participant's individual performances in such sports events

I know dick about poker strategy and almost finished in the money at a tournament at Caesars Palace a few years ago. I don't think I could kick my way through a golf tournament the same way.

Then again some people can totally luck through fantasy football, so I'm still confused how it can be considered a game of skill.

The outcome is out of your control. Even if you have the best fantasy team ever assembled, they could get shut down on a given week or your opponent can outscore you.

That being said, I've played enough FF (one league with the same friends in particular) to know that there are people that are good at it and people that are bad at it.

Just like poker, it's playing probabilities. Which is just weighted chances.

I would agree that daily fantasy such as fanduel/Draftkings is comparable to poker, but season long fantasy football requires more complicated decisions over a period of time (draft, weekly lineup, waiver wire) so that it's not just about playing probabilities in a snap decision. There's much more strategy required.

I am not convinced Poker is a game of skill over the long term, I know unequivocally it's a game of skill over the long term. To argue otherwise means you know freak all about it. If you're playing poker against people that are not as good as you over the long term you will win money. Jesus this is such a stupid freaking argument. I am not saying it's sport or poker players are athletes or any dumb excrement like that.

A long game of chance is something you play out to the end no matter what based on odds. Like Blackjack, Craps, Roulette. They all have a predetermined end, poker does not.

That's not a fair comparison though. Poker is a zero sum game, the ones you list are not. Better poker players win more because they understand and play probabilities of chance better than other players; chance is the very core of the game.

He holds massive influence over more than a billion people, and even those who are Christian but not Catholic. It's also a position that has been around since the formation of the Roman Empire, so it's pretty significant. Sure, the church may not matter as much anymore, but having a progressive pope is a very good thing.

Totally fair, but I still get to control my own money at the end of the day. The selling of you is to corporations for the purposes of later selling you something. I can control my own eventual destiny under those terms (not that I like this either). The ability of the government to monitor me and what I say/do can only be useful to "them" in terms that severely detract from my own freedom.

If we suddenly found out that all the DoJ was using phone records for was to sell to Walmart to better target me for Black Friday sales, I'd be cool with that.

You think?

Think about what people post on Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and all of the other various social media sites. Now imagine an industry working collectively to use all of that publicly shared information to build a database of knowledge on you and your behaviours. Sure, they might use it to sell you more targeted products (and my view has always been that given I'm going to be advertised to anyway, I'd rather you advertise things that I might be interested in), but that's not what's concerning.

What if they used it to change the price of things that they sell to you? Say, insurance. Hey Alio, we see pictures of you drinking on a fairly regular basis. That just bumped up your life insurance premium, and given we might assume a greater chance of you driving afterwards given where you live and how much you seem to drink, have a 15% hike on your car insurance as well.

What's this, Alio? A shiny new road bike? Lovely purchase, that. Except you've just increased your chances of having a crash, so take a hit on your health insurance for that.

I see you've also installed a new stereo in your car. Yeah, unfortunately you didn't tell me about that so now that you're in need of making a claim on your car insurance after that lady rear-ended you the other day, I'm afraid I'm going to have to say no. Unreported modifications, you see. It's in the fine print.

The risks of corporate world having your data go far deeper than just who's trying to sell you stuff.

The entire Starbucks red cup controversy. All sides involved.

Starbucks: making a change that realistically is just going to save them a little money by making simpler cups and cloaking it vaguely in the name of inclusion. Not to mention the free publicity. Let's not forget #RaceTogether.

Persecuted Christians: The previous cups had snowflakes, snowmen, and reindeer or some excrement. Mostly secular winter imagery. Stop trying to claim victimhood, Christmas isn't going anywhere, and your whiny derriere is still going to Starbucks. People are going there just to make the barista write Merry Christmas on the cup. Good job continuing to patronize the business, idiots.

People defending the change solely to antagonize the group above: Keep patting yourselves on the back for defending a giant corporation's marketing move. HuffPo might even quote your sassy tweet in their next listicle.

Of course it makes more sense.  Christianity is still dominant in this country and pretends it has a license to govern the rest of the country by its precepts.  The vocal minority needs to learn how to not diminish legitimate concerns by flying off the handle about stupid excrement that doesn't matter, and that's a problem that gets worse all the time.  The majority needs to realize that despite what anyone says or does, their interests still predominate and that's not changing.  Whenever someone bitches about Under God in the pledge of allegiance, I say "Who the freak cares?  If you don't want to say it, don't say it."  Whenever someone bitches about how it's going to get removed, I say "No.  It's not.  Sit the freak down."  And the thing is, the former group is the one with more of a legitimate complaint.  That's how it usually goes.  The minority group generally has a more legitimate complaint from a purely conceptual standpoint.  From a practical standpoint, though, most of the complaints are irrelevant and freaking stupid and they need to shut up.

Right, but the point is that those campaigns do absolutely nothing to impact anyone's celebration of Christmas.  I freaking love Christmas, but not getting a coffee cup that says Christmas doesn't impact that.  Having a cashier say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas does nothing to stop that.  They still sell Christmas stuff everywhere (and earlier and earlier every year).  They play Christmas music everywhere.  The world revolves around Christmas for almost 2 months, but these people are so pissed off and hateful because it's not stated explicitly any more.  The more legitimate complaint is that you have segments of the population who are completely excluded from massive cultural touchstones for a solid 6 weeks.  It honestly does suck for Jewish kids etc.  Personally, I don't think that's a good reason to take away the emphasis on Christmas, but that's not actually happening anyway.

Maybe that's the problem. Some groups look at Christmas as some Christian-only cultural tradition, where it has become a very American tradition in its own right.

I think you mean it's more secular than simply Christian.  I can't imagine that you actually think Christmas is an American thing.  It's universal, and most of the countries that celebrate it without sizable Christian populations do so because of prior European colonialism, not because they want to be American.  They also generally don't have other winter holidays that conflict with it.  You're asking people like the Jews to just forget the origins of Christmas and get on board when they already have Hanukkah. 

BTW, the tree is pagan in origin.  Not American.

It came from Kos (which I had never actually visited until yesterday) but someone linked it on Twitter so I looked. It appears that the person who started the entire "Red cup assault on Christmas" thing is actually a con man drumming up publicity and false ire.

It makes sense. Any Christian I know thought the entire thing was stupid. No one I've spoken identified with the supposedly "outraged." It's just a small group of idiots who latched onto an poopchute.

On Halloween, my mother-in-law's neighbor put a sign on the door that said "Do not knock. We do not celebrate Halloween. We are Christians." We were tempted to leave a flaming bag of excrement on the doorstep and ring-and-run.

(Source) The frenzy over Starbucks use of generic red cups for the holiday season without a direct ode to Christmas began with a video rant from a self-described “disciple of Jesus” and now the latest hero of the anti-political correctness crowd. But Josh Feuerstein has been at this for years, posting hundreds of videos of himself screaming mini-sermons into his Iphone camera. While he has almost 2 million followers on Facebook, (it’s not clear how many of those became fans after the Starbucks takedown went viral) most people had no idea who Feuerstein was before this week. It’s also unclear whether any notable Christian groups have joined his boycott, and some are vocally opposing it.

Feuerstein has long been on the radar of liberal groups, as the left-leaning Web site Daily Kos, detailed in an article Tuesday. They  first learned of him when he recorded himself calling a Florida bakery to order a cake with the message: “We Do Not Support Gay Marriage.” When the bakery refused to fill the order, he and his followers cried discrimination and harassed the small business until it was forced to temporarily close.

Feuerstein told The Washington Post in an e-mail that he’s preparing a libel suit against the Daily Kos. He was unavailable to comment further at publication time. Feuerstein’s often incendiary views are part of his whole public persona. Appearing on CNN Monday, he says America is a Christian nation because why else would “Obama have to pretend to be one to get elected?” The other guest on the segment, Pete Dominick, a talk radio host, attacked Feuerstein as a “entrepreneurial bigot.”

Sign on the NJ Transit level at Penn Station. The green people (the ones who are looking around and being attentive) are supposed to look out for the red person (clearly giving no fucks where they're heading) who's face in their stupid phone.

When we went to Pearl Harbor back in '06 we took a boat over to see the USS Arizona which is, obviously, a very solemn place to visit. This freaking lady, typical tourist, is loudly gabbing away on her cell phone (mind you, this was almost 9 years ago, cell phones weren't as prevalent as they are now) for a good minute. They only let a certain amount of people over to the ship so it was painfully obvious she was loud and I could see a lot of people were pretty uncomfortable and pissed. Finally, it was me of course, I yell over to her, loud NYer I can be, to get off her God damn phone and show some respect and it actually embarrassed her enough to shut her up. That picture Badger posted just reminded of that.

It was the annual alumni steak dinner party or something. I saw some old friends, but was told to leave since it's a $75 event. I said freak that I'm an alumni and tried going in again, so I had a bunch of ushers pull me out of there. I got kicked out of my own HS. I was pissed the whole night.

There are expected to be 50mph winds but the Weather Channel names all the winter storms now. When they started doing it a few years ago they explained why so people would take winter storms more seriously. The NWS and accuweather and sites like that don't refer to these storms by the weather channel's names.

Funny thing is Weather Underground actually made fun of TWC when they started doing this but now they're in cahoots with each other so they refer to these storms the same way now.

LOL.  You need better friends.

California has the best public college system in the country, from community colleges to the Cal States to the UCs.  With books, it's about $7000/year to get an education via the Cal State system.  The UC system doubles that.  I don't think that's unreasonable in the slightest for the level of education you get, especially as an investment in your future.  Unless my kids can get into a school with tons of financial aid like I did, I'm encouraging the UC system.

City University of NY Queens College, where I went, was like $5000 a year with books. I was able to pay that off with a part time job making $10 an hour and summers as a doorman. Most of the people complaining about college tuition are mad that they can't go to the big fun state schools that are $60k a year.

Granted, if you want to be on an associate track at a big investment bank, only the top notch expensive schools have internship programs that help, but I have people working alongside of me who went to NYU and Columbia. It's what you do after college that counts more than anything.

Well I exaggerated but there are a lot that are $30k+. My first semester was at Hofstra, a school in LI which isn't better than QC, but my first semester was $25k. I got sucked into the same trap. I though a city or state school wouldn't be worth it.

Well then I think most people who are complaining are doing so because they can't afford to go to private schools without a mountain of debt. State and city schools are perfectly reasonable. Sure, state schools are more expensive, but you really don't need to go to one if you can't afford it.

I completely agree. Both are great but completely different vehicles to tell a story. There's no way possible to film a show exactly like the books. It would make for such an unwieldy story, unless they had a 20 episode season. There's no way that would happen, HBO would go broke.

 Some of the choices we may not entirely like, Dorne, some of Sansa and Stannis. Without knowing the end game they have earned leeway as they have crafted an otherwise great show.

In the end it's all fantasy, plus GRRM approves of them and has admitted to much of what I have said. I guess there's no cure for being a queynte. Lol

 I think where the show has really hit home runs is the casting. I think some of the choices are even better than could possibly be expected. For instance, Tyrion, Joffrey, Cersei, Sam, Varys, Ned Stark, Jon Snow, Dany, Viserys and the Hound are better than what I imagined. I missed at least a dozen those are the few that immediately came to mind.

If you have a good pair of sunglasses it's just as important to wear them on a cloudy day as the uv light can phuck your eyes up just the same. I have a pair of polarized fishing glasses and use them when it rains, you can actually see better, they cut though the glare of the water. So I always have them. But to hide a bald spot, lol no. That's just as bad as a combover or bad wig.

Also if we're talking about the tools that do that at a poker table then yeah I agree.

I had to excavate a family of four mice that had burrowed themselves under my kids' playground this morning. My dog, who although she is definitely on her last legs is still a killer, found them killed one of them, I'm guessing, playing with it. I had to dig the other three out with a mini shovel and put them in a box, still alive while one of them was crying. It was fun. I had to get rid of them somehow. I don't want them in the house. They were fairly big for mice.

Yeah, it's a specialist bed place. Mattress was four grand plus tax, the rest was the divan and some stupidly overpriced mattress protector ("but it's all natural fibres, darling!").

I honestly don't know. I tend to sleep pretty well wherever I am, but Mrs English is a light sleeper and has been struggling with this one of late.

They do have a 15 day sleep guarantee whereby if you decide in the first 15 days that you're not happy with it they will take it back, so at least we'll get a chance to decide whether it's worth the money. They say we spend a third of our lives in bed so I guess it makes sense to be as comfortable as possible.

They do have a 15 day sleep guarantee whereby if you decide in the first 15 days that you're not happy with it they will take it back, so at least we'll get a chance to decide whether it's worth the money. They say we spend a third of our lives in bed so I guess it makes sense to be as comfortable as possible.

Oh I definitely hear ya there. Was just wondering about the difference between a $1500 coal foam queen and a $3500 one. I have the former, which is awesome. Plus two memory foam pillows that are amazing ($100 a piece). I also think good sheets play a roll too.

Bottom line on mattresses, and I know this because my former stepfather owned one of the major bed store chains in the Hudson Valley...  Your $6000 mattress probably cost the retailer $2000.  The guy was loaded, even after dropping god knows how much on an 80's coke habit that would make even Tony Montana blush.

If you simply asked, you got free delivery, free box spring, free mattress cover, free pillows, etc.  If you were savvy enough to barter with a jew, you could get him down 20-30% on top of that.

Buying a mattress is very much akin to buying a new car.  The markup is massive, and there is always room for serious negotiating.

No I get that. I've lived in HK where it was used and traveled quite a bit, but it's new in the U.S. The problem is that the machines still have the sliding option, so you always end up sliding then have the teller tell you that they don't accost those anymore., etc.

You probably deal with them more near you. The only ones I have a big problem with are the ones who want to be on the road but the road is a 45 MPH speed limit and they are doing like 10-15 MPH. Can't want to have all the rights to the road a car does and not maintain the flow of traffic at all.

I've come to the conclusion that 98% of people controlling any form of transport, motorised or human powered, are cunts who shouldn't be allowed on the road in the first place. I hate driving now and self driving cars can't come fast enough so I can sit back and read the paper while I travel without having to care about the litany of shitheads trying to kill themselves, me and everyone else on the roads.

We have two varieties: the people who ride standard bikes around and ignore stop signs, nearly causing accidents every day near us, and the people who ride racing bikes and take up entire lanes on busy streets.  Those ones use the streets that have huge gaps between lights or stop signs, which just means that they force everyone to go around them at the speed limit.  It's not too much of an inconvenience on one of the major streets they use, but on another, they can add up to an hour to the trip between Santa Monica and Malibu.  That might even be an understatement.  Huge traffic buildups as people are forced to merge into one lane of a two lane highway and then spread back out only to have to do it again a quarter mile down the road.  And when a cyclist or two feels like going 17 instead of 15, he'll fly over into the left lane and force everyone into brake check mode.  Then all the cyclist douchebags converge on one coffee shop or another to wave their tiny spandexed dicks in people's faces.

I've seen people run cyclists off the road and applaud.  If they can convince a few people to take up jogging or swimming instead, it's a huge win.

Having just flown twice in the last couple of days, the moving walkway is a big annoyance, I would also add:

1.) People that insist on packing jugs of water or any big bottle of liquid in their bags and hold up security. Then act like they have no idea they weren't supposed to despite being told fifty freaking times.
2.) Peel that hold up the line because they don't understand when a TSA worker says to take out their laptop from the bag, they actually mean to take it out of their bag.
3.) People that try and push their way thru from the back of the plane when it lands. freak you, we go in order.

My Mom was a second grade teacher about 187 years it seemed, so I'm a bit biased the other way.  Most teachers (my Mom anyway) get there about an hour before and leave an hour after the kids do because they have lesson planning.  Plus they do end up taking work home with them fairly often (lesson plans, grading papers, etc).  The summer off is a good perk admittedly, but even then, they don't get what the kids do because they have to be back early to plan for the next year and clean up from the previous one. 

Teachers these days can't even teach the way they want with all of the SOL stuff.  They have to teach to a test.

Most importantly, they have to deal with like 30 kids for 6 hours every weekday for 9 months.  Then, in most cases, come home to their own.  I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.  Then again, I have no desire to be a teacher. 

I'm not saying they deserve to be paid $1 million dollars a year, but they do deserve a bump up, aside from the few shitty ones.'

The social media part, I agree.  Anybody whining on social media is annoying.

Eh.  It's a job that people abuse just like any other.  The problem is that all teachers make the same amount based on experience rather than ability and results.  There are issues with performance based pay as classes differ in ability and output, so it's really just an impossible situation to pay each teacher what he or she is worth.

Having said that, my wife is at her school 7 to 4 each day, often later, and does a ton of work at home.  She gets 8 weeks off in summer, but she is spending this whole week in training and has meetings periodically.

I've never met a teacher who was in and out with the bell and didn't bring work home.  I don't think it's actually possible unless you teach PE, and most of those teachers coach as well.

Either way, I come from a family of teachers and see a ton of posts on FB about it.  They're more the humorous kind about needing to drink to get through the school year etc.  I'd get annoyed if I saw a ton of the kind you're describing.

I have a lot of friends who became teachers. Seems like the first few years suck with low play and extremely long hours to get grading and lesson planning done. Now it seems like most of them who have been doing it for a few years are at the point of a decent salary and have enough years of lesson plans to look back on that they aren't doing everything from scratch anymore.

The main complaints I see now are kids who put in no effort and then have their parents coming in to blame the teacher on a regular basis. I could imagine dealing with parents who think their kid can do no wrong gets very frustrating.

I just went to Wendy's after the bar to order a 4 for 4 because I'm drunk and degenerate.

I drove away and realized the kitchen fucked up my order, even though my receipt was correct (meaning the cashier/order taker entered it properly), my order came out wrong. I had already eaten most of the food and the fucked up item was the last item in the bag.

So i drove to a nearby Wendy's on my way home, not far from the original location, and ordered more food and asked them to change it. I showed the manager the receipt, the sandwich and he tried to be a dick at first.  He was some mexican/peruvian looking Inca lover of the older lady and i tried to be incredibly reasonable with him at first, and he kept shrugging me off. Basically trying to say "that's their problem".

So I said. "Do you really want me to drive 3 miles back and exchange the order? That's how you do business? I know franchises are different but this is a dollar item, and i have the receipt to prove it"

Then I said "Look, I've spent hundreds of dollars at this location in a six month span. Way better than my health deserves. You can say no, and i'll never come here again. Or you can fix this, and i'll say "They Did Right by Me" and continue as usual.


He fixed it. The fact I even had to get to that point of convincing him was obnoxious, becuase it's not like the location I went to had a stellar reputation. But it's amazing the level of incompetence of people who work fast food.  I guess the real message is , DON'T EAT THAT excrement!.

Larger point is that too many people in retail/customer service are generally trying to lie to you just so they can say there's nothing that can be done about it. Until you get loud, or aggressive or speak to their manager. It's built into their training.  The fact that being nice or polite gets you nothing is inherently retarded when dealing with morons. Fast food, front line customer workers etc. All the same.

You beat to me it. I was going to add some of that.

There is a lot of racism, or more like eliteism, within Latin/Hispanic culture.  You can tell because of how you get treated when you go these countries when you have light features. Whiteness is equated with beauty and wealth. All the Spanish television is incredibly white, with European features. Now obviously there was mixing with Moors during their time, but there's more or less 3 classifications of the spanish speaking world. White(from Spain, or spain mixed with some other European), Black, Mestizo. Mestizos are the looking Indigenous people .

The blacks in the culture were slaves brought over and then eventually emancipated.  There is looking down your nose upon black people in a classism sense there, but there was much less the overt type of segregation in education, public facilities etc and stuff you saw here. 

South America has large settlements of Europeans that weren't from Spain/Portugal and came a bit later. Venezuela and Brazil had tons of Germans. Argentina is Insecure Italy, with a small minority of mestizo thrown in.   Cuba is unique because all the native population was wiped out by Columbus and friends. 


However, to circle back to the description, Latin people always love to talk about their roots. It's something we make fun of each other with too.  Clearly Fen is sensitive about it.

Ended up yelling at a couple of faggots for sitting in their car obliviously, which was taking up 2 spots, in the middle of a tight and fairly crowded parking lot.  Happened to be right in front of the place I was going to which has limited space.

The lot tows religiously and has assigned parking for each individual business,and I've seen people get towed for parking in the wrong space. These dipshits were taking up 2 out of the 3 spaces, and the other was taken.

At first I honked and they didn't get the message, so I parked in another spot and as I was walking into the place yelled something at them. Was going to let it be but then they responded so the driver rolled down the window.  I said "you're taking up two spots." and he flippantly said "there's other parking, that's unnecessary."

Annoyed, I said "THIS is unnecessary", and he started to roll down the window while staring at me thinking he was being cool. So I said, "Sorry would have sufficed, lover of the older lady".  They ended up immediately driving away, so I think they got scared.

I use the term bundle of sticks loosely. Couple of dirty, pudgy Latin (Venezuelan probably) kids in their 20s.

Dairy Queen's commercials in general are freaking evil. I don't know if you get the 99c Blizzard radio commercial down there in Canada's Pants, but it makes me want to drive my car through the front window of the nearest branch.

when i wake up at night i never feel annoyed. the initial thought that usually goes through my head is "freak yeah, i dont have to get up yet, back to sleep for me" and i fall back to sleep within seconds to minutes.

maybe sleep deprivation/little total sleep has something to do with thinking that way, because whenever i first wake after sleeping, its usually when i have to get up and stArt going, which has been 4-5 hours after going to bed for the past 3 years

There was this insufferable guy at my old office who used to wear bow ties all the time. Everyone hated him, including all the other black people, because he personified every horrible stereotype of black people possible.   Every day he showed up for work he was dressed like he was part of Don King's entourage. Absurd color suits, bowties. Only reason he had the job was because he worked for the sales manager at a previous job. The sales manager was also a piece of excrement. Fake derriere Cuban who sucked up to all the Haitians and Black people, but none of the other Cubans respected him because he was a poser. Practically illiterate and a borderline thief. 

The bowtie guy was the worst. He tried to disrespect me one time in front of the office(interrupting a conversation he wasn't even part of) and I told him flatly to never talk like that to me again. He started getting huffy puffy and loud "OR WHAT? OR WHAT?".  My other sales manager (my friend) had to hold be back, all while I made fun of him for the way he dressed. Everyone was laughing, and you could tell how steamed he was. He wasn't exactly Jeffrey Ross, so it wasn't hard to out wit him with insults. He looked like a juiced up Floyd Mayweather. Short but bulky and just as ugly.

Course the guy was a freaking idiot, and got fired for doing some shady excrement like a week later. He was crying in the parking lot after they escorted him out. That was a good day. I didn't boast. Just gave him a smirk.

On a side note, most black people are complete pussies when it comes to actually throwing down. Obviously not a Bones Jones or a trained boxer, but by in large when they get aggressive, they're all talk.  Their favorite thing is getting loud and boisterous because that scares most (stupid) people away, but when it comes down to it they won't get into it unless they have a gun or numbers.

The people that will probably cave your skull in are either quiet or completely avoidant of those situations altogether because they know the damage that they can do.

Minor annoyance, but still.... I went through the drive through for a biscuit and coffee this morning.  Lady asked me if I needed any cream or sugar. I said yes, a couple of sugars.  I usually drink my coffee black, but I was feeling frisky this AM.  The lady said, "how many is a couple?"  I was nice and said 2, but it annoyed me after the fact. First off, when I usually ask for sugar, they immediately throw in 47 packets without even asking.  Also, doesn't everyone know a couple is 2?  Aside from the fact whether you believe gay packets can be married as a couple, it's still 2.  Maybe they are Mormon sugars.

Similar thing happened to me. I drink coffee black w/ no sugar 95% of the time but one Saturday I went to Dunkin to get an iced coffee. Felt frisky and asked for a 'splash' of cream. Minute or two later they give me the coffee and the thing looks like a freaking vanilla milkshake. I NEVER send stuff back at stores/restaurants but this was disgusting, it was basically half cream, half coffee. I asked politely if they could make me a new one, with just a tiny bit of cream and I'd be willing to pay for it. They didn't take my money but remade it for me. This time it was only 25% cream and the rest coffee, still disgusting. I just left and thanked them for their time but jesus christ, annoyed me for like 2 hours after the fact.

Dunkin loves to unload creamer in coffee.  Same happens to me if I don't specifically ask for no cream.  I swear they get paid by the amount of creamer in there.

Pedestrians that walk out in front of cars at crosswalks (like in front of walmart or in a strip mall) and don't even look to see if a car is coming.  I know they have the right of way, but I'll be damned if I don't at least look when I walk across.  I'm not gonna win a battle with a car even if I'm in the right.  I don't trust other drivers to pay attention and I don't want to die over traffic safety laws.

freak these out of town assholes who insist on driving downtown in a major freaking city because they're too hick-scared to take the freaking transit, and then get all upset that all those people having the temerity to walk places are holding them up.

I can't speak for NYC but Toronto is full of suburban cunts getting all uppity at not being able to drive around the city in their freak off great SUV and just stop wherever they feel like to get their Starbucks like they're in their shitty Lego housing estate land.

That type of general strident dismissal is what is frustrating to a lot of the Cuban community.  There is a giant gulf of ignorance (especially on the left, for some reason which is bizarre because they credit themselves on facts and science) regarding what Castro and his regime have actually done. What Kaepernick said is what Obama has thought too.  People don't realize what Castro actually did.

I mean, Castro hijacked a revolution and said "hey guys, just kidding. No free elections. I'm really a communist" and executed or jailed anyone who opposed him while taking everybody's excrement. Everyone subscribed to communism except him, which he used to live an insanely extragavant lifestyle. He stayed in power for almost 60 years, and there are were world leaders praising the guy.  It's scary how many young people in general subscribe to the "hey guys, maybe things have changed" routine. THey've obviously never met a 80 year old Cuban man.

I don't know enough about the history of Cuba or Castro to have an opinion on the guy personally, but I think the right wing outrage over a simple statement of remembrance for a family friend is - as with most things right now - completely over the top.

You already said you had family directly affected by him so I'm sure it actually stirs something up inside you if anyone says anything good about him. I don't think anyone I was exposed to has anywhere near that level of skin in the game and were just looking for the new thing to be over the top angry about.

Most people who are for it are too young to remember the actual impact of communism and how it's unsustainable system. People are too far removed from its pain and its misery that it inflicts on its people. 

Now, I get why people get upset when people inaccurately call *everything* socialism but Castro is like the poster boy for why Communism doesn't work at all. He uses an entire nation to get him and his underlings rich while everyone stays poor. I don't get how anyone can defend the statement or even try to.

I will be honest, I don't care freak all about Castro. What I do care about are some of my dear friends family have been directly affected by that queynte. I am glad he's dead but it really had no effect on my life other than friends care very deeply. I suppose it's like a non Jews opinion on Hitler, although many people had family that experienced loss as a result of that war.

Now that I really think about it, Stalin would probably be a better example. People just don't realize what a monster he was, in many respects he was as bad if not worse than that "vulgar little corporal".

I'm not quite sure how you took "I don't know enough about the history of Cuba or Castro to have an opinion on the guy" as anything other than a tacit statement of my acknowledged ignorance, so I assume that you were just choosing to take it as an opportunity to tell me how ignorant I am. Which is fine, if somewhat redundant, but you do you.

What I was I think very clearly talking about was Justin Trudeau, about whom I do know a little bit. It's entirely fine to disagree with him, to think that his statement was incorrect, ill advised or inappropriate. You might very well be right, I don't know. I was talking about why he expressed the view he did, because Tommy appeared to be unaware, not commenting on the views themselves.

I feel like guaranteed basic income and a reduction in what's considered a full-time work week are basically inevitable at this point.

Maybe somewhere but I don't see that happening so easily in this country. I mentioned it a week or two ago and super liberal JE even had a problem with it.

A lot of younger people do know their history and are aware that communism failed horribly. It's just hard not to think some type of socialist society is going to have to become acceptable when you see the A.I. revolution starting and it's only going to pick up steam. At some point in my life the whole idea that only lazy people don't work is going to have to change or excrement is going to get pretty bad.

Difference between knowing and actually being involved in it first hand. IE dying in war, constant undercurrent of nuclear war.

I don't so much have a problem with it as I do more questions than opinions. In principle I like the idea; Ontario has plans to do a pilot programme so I'll be interested to see if and how it works.

I get where you are coming from. It's just that in the past the system was relying on humans and in the coming years it will be robots we are leaning on to do the labor. Plenty of human related bullshit to work out along the way but we'll see what happenes when it's not a McDonald's cashier being replaced but solid middle class jobs like truck driving.

I'm not all that worried with automation. Populations will begin to shrink in most developed countries anyway, and rather than take on immigrants from poorer countries, we'll just build robots to do most of the work. Things will even out as you'll have more efficiency despite a smaller consumer base.

expected delivery was updated at 6 am to today. just got an sms notification that my package is "damaged" and being returned.

amazon just said that they have not received notice from UPS, and once they do, they will reship another. they wont ship one from the united states/canada, they wont give me any compensation. they wont ship one now, they'll ship when they find out its being returned. i said, well what if i just buy another one and cancel the first order? nope, wont change anything. so that means my next day air package will arrive here, likely at the earliest dec 23, if im freaking lucky.

this is otherworldly shitty of them. they're pretty crap compared to us amazon, shipping is never right(never this bad), prices are sky freaking high, selection is garbage, customer service basically wants you dead rather than contact them.


i should have known better, i got burned on some ear plugs a while pack and amazon did nothing(i ordered 200, was sent 2. amazon offered me a 20% discount) and a phone case(Ordered october 30, still do not have it). not to mention their shipping is garbage. i ordered a pot thing for my wife for xmas, marked as a gift and paid for wrapping, it was shipped unwrapped,  using the products own box to slap a shipping label onto and sent that way. of course, it too was damaged in transit, the box was litterally torn into multiple pieces and taped back together using an entire roll of packaging tape. amazons response was "what? you got it didnt you?"


i'm just done using amazon.ca

Sorry.

You're far from the only person who does it, it's rife across all football sites and it makes no sense. People seem to feel like the Draft is some kind of free for all and their team can pull off some kind of huge coup by jumping in and obtaining prime resources that others want. The reality is that if we get a player at #6 or #38 or #70 who we think is a great value pick, it isn't because we've somehow been faster or more clever than the others. It's because they placed a greater value on other players ahead of him.

No grabbing or nabbing has been done, we've just followed a very structured process.

Hey dipshit do you know what they do when they select players in the draft? They GRAB the card with the players name on it from the team representatives.

I have tried that, and it has sort of helped.

When I get them good, like painful put a bullet in me I want to die good, my finger down my throat is the only solution.  I dont always have to vomit, sometimes a couple wretches, pause, hiccups gone.

Back to malt vinegar on fries.  I was addicted when I visited London many years ago.  Most places here in Vegas that serve fish and chips have it if you ask.

Even saying Texas BBQ is a bit misleading.  The styles vary quite a bit.  In Austin it seems to be all about the smoke.  Stuff comes out dry and you use whatever sauce you want.  Really, really good.

Other cities use enough brown sugar and kethup to kill Iggy and MB with 1 bite.  Sickeningly sweet.

You are either born a boy or a girl.  I don't care which you prefer to sleep with, but you either have junk, or you do not have junk.

i feel like the level of annoyance/anger i've had against those chevy commercials has reached an obnoxious level recently

i don't know if i'll be able to handle another 'unpaid actor' uttering the statement 'chevy's really stepping up their game!' word for word just like that

in one of the commercials they tell the actors there they have to read off all the awards chevy won, and this one bitch goes 'wow omg omg, lots of pressure'

the freak bitch, where the freak is the pressure, they are freaking asking you to read

This is my annual mention of how annoying it is when people start and continue conversations with me while I am clearly doing something else important.  I don't mind if someone asks me a question or makes a comment.  I don't mind if someone wants to have a conversation when nothing is going on.  But a couple of people at my office constantly want to talk about their kids sports teams or some stupid excrement they bought on amazon and expect me to respond while I'm typing up a report or a letter.  I have zero ability to multi-task, so now I have to sit there in limbo between a discussion I don't care about and something I need to do but can't concentrate on.  I'm too nice to tell them to shut up.  So I just sit and fume with a smile on my face.

I haven't responded to a single word you said or even looked at you.  Take a hint.

Depends whether your colleagues are cunts, I suppose. I like most of my colleagues, and the one total knobhead we had quit a couple of weeks ago, so I don't mind interacting in the office, but I have worked for organisations where I'd frankly rather everyone just left me alone.

I generally determine the tip I give, or if I give one at all, by a few factors:

- how much effort I have had to put into the process
- how much effort the person serving me has had to put into the process
- whether I intend to return to the establishment
- how hot the person serving me is

So cute server at my local bar who brings me beer and wings while I yell at fat men running into each other on TV? Big fat tip. Pizza guy who always brings my delivery first so it's still piping hot and is nice to my dogs? Good tip. Hairy Greek dude with the lazy eye who serves me falafels at my local take out kebab shop? Small tip. Bored wage slave handing over underfilled, overpriced "pints" at the hockey game? No tip.

Vinegar does clean some things really well, but it's not the miracle it's often made out to be.

I love the smell and taste of vinegar. I grew up in an Italian family where we had salad with dinner every night, and it was just oil and vinegar rather than salad dressing on it.

People who don't let their kids participate in Halloween.

When I was in grade school I had a classmate whose mother told him their family doesn't celebrate Halloween because it's a Christian holiday, and they weren't Christian. lolwut

I have a coworker who doesn't let her kid do Halloween stuff because they didn't have it where she grew up and she thinks it's weird. I didn't probe further since I had just finished telling the above story mockingly and didn't want to make it more awkward.

What's weird about Halloween? People are ridiculous.

I just retweeted someone who said something along the lines of: "advice for when teens show up at your door trick-or-treating. The world is burning, just share the candy!"

I was at a Halloween party at my son's school Saturday. Many of us dressed up in costume, but some parents were all "Why would I dress in costume? I'm not a child." No. You're not. You're a miserable poopchute. Now please go stand in a corner while the rest of us enjoy ourselves.

What's weird about Halloween? People are ridiculous.

Try going door to door any of the 364 days of the year and ask if your kid can have some free stuff, and see what the reaction is.

Also kids, remember - don't talk to strangers, don't get in their cars and don't accept candy from them. Except on this one day of the year if you're dressed up as a Power Ranger, then it's absolutely fine.

Also, grown adults going to the pub in fancy dress. freak off, your desire to be the centre of attention is getting in the way of me watching whatever sport it is that I've gone to watch. Get the freak out of here.

Yeah, it's weird. In all sorts of ways.

One day is set aside to go from door to door asking for free stuff. One day is set aside to eat all the dry-derriere turkey you can fit in your stomach. One day is set aside for a fat-derriere to come down your chimney and deliver presents to kids. I know. Shocking that we have these things called "holidays."

People going out in costume one night a year is cool. They're probably having a lot more fun than you.

Don't go asking for free stuff from people, except this one time.

Holidays are a time for us to take a break from the drudgery of every day life, not go out and do plainly stupid and irritating things. Why am I the poopchute if I don't buy candy for your kids? Also, Halloween isn't a holiday. It's this strange excuse for people to do really nonsensical and irritating things.

So if you had a kid and they wanted to dress up on Halloween and go trick or treating, you’d tell them no because it’s weird? Most kids participate in Halloween so they would probably be viewed as the weird one by their friends.

I don't care if people want to do Halloween, it's your thing so knock yourself out. Just know that objectively speaking it's really freaking weird, and I don't want to have anything to do with it.

Equally, Thanksgiving means absolutely nothing to me. It's not a thing in the UK. At least they don't expect me to dress up as a Disney princess in order to eat turkey though.

Every Who down in Whoville
liked Christmas a lot
but the Grinch
who lived just north of Whoville
did not

The Grinch hated Christmas
the whole Christmas season
Now please don't ask why
no one quite knows the reason

It could be
perhaps
that his shoes were too tight.
Or it could be that his head wasn't screwed on just right

But I think that the most likely reason of all
may have been that his heart
was two sizes
too small

But whatever the reason
his heart or his shoes
he stood there on Christmas Eve hating the Whos

Staring down from his cave
with a sour grinchy frown
at the warm lighted windows
below in their town

It's funny that you've chosen to read it that way. "He doesn't get this thing I really like so he's now my mortal enemy!" Go back a couple of pages and read the discussion from the beginning. Badger has a coworker who thinks it's weird, and I agreed with her. I've said a number of times I don't care about it, I just think everything about it is a bit fucked up.

Halloween's like having a foot fetish; I don't get it and I think it's a strange thing to enjoy, but clearly some people do and as long as they don't expect me to get involved then I don't really care if they're getting their rocks off.

Although try and make a case that going out drinking in New York dressed as a terrorist isn't a weird thing to do. I dare you.

This morning.

I got a kid who can't stop shitting herself because she's too freakin stubborn to sit on a toilet longer than 10 seconds. I got a dog who bolted from my backyard who I didn't track down until he was about 6 blocks from my house, ran across 2 pretty busy streets and, oh yeah, a 6 and a 3 year old who thankfully didn't leave the house to see what was going on.

Works gonna be easy today

Some days going to work is like a mini vacation.

Both of my kids think pooping is some sort of alien abduction that should be fought with every bit of their life force.  Someday they will realize that heading to the crapper is one of life's joys. Quiet, peaceful joys.

I don't mind if someone interrupts my work for something short, even if it's stupid.   It's the ones that keep blabbering on for 10 minutes despite no response from me. I just don't have it in me to tell them to freak off.

Yeah, I'm pretty much talking about the 10 minute life suckers.  If you come just to say hi, briefly talk about the weekend plans or something, that's fine and welcome.

Them - Hey Fen do you have a minute?

Me - Unless it's life or death I need 20 minutes, then I'm all yours.

Them - OK, so what had happened was, (meaningless bullshit for 5 minutes).

I like when my coworkers talk to me unsolicited. Maybe it's just because I work with a lot of attractive women and I will nod my head as long as they're talking.

However, I don't like when someone sticks their head into my cubicle for small talk when I'm with a claimant, especially if the case involves disability or a dead person. Kind of innapropriate to break away from that to say "Yeah the kids are doing great!" Oddly enough it's usually my older coworkers who do this more.

I'm probably one of the most laid back, kindest bosses that anyone has ever worked for.  Always been 100% open door policy.  I likely will not be changing antime soon, and sometimes my productivity suffers from employees that abuse my philosophy.

That's why I vented here instead of work, and thank you for OS reference.

FYI, if you tell the airline it's a bereavement flight a lot will give a discount. Some will ask for a death certificate in advance, but many will give it retrospectively if you provide them with a copy. I know it seems a little cold but having done the whole long distance flight for a death thing before, it's worth knowing.

Yep. It's not the taste, it's the fact that she's doing something against her will.  My son was fine with liquid meds.  The girl, not so much.  She sees the syringe and covers her mouth and screams.

Depends on what you’re trying to get me to do. I’m not gonna say I have no plans only for them to reply: “Oh great, now you can come to my nephew’s school play”

I have a couple people in my life that have bad habits of being intentionally vague like that. Im extremely hesistant to tell people my availability when I have no idea what I’m getting roped into. I always end up giving some wishy washy answer of multiple scenarios of what I could end up doing that day until they drop the bullshit and tell me what they want.

I practically always respond to those queries with something like "I have a ton of laundry", "Gotta go food shopping, other errands", "I'm supposed to see my [kid/brother/cousin/friend]" whatever.

Then if they tell me they're doing something I'm interested in doing, I'll say "Oh cool. I don't have to run errands. I can always go during the week."

I hear you. 

Also when you get a new roll and the place where it starts is so stuck to the roll that it peels and tears lengthwise and you have to keep pulling until it tears fully off the side.  Then you're stuck with these strips of tp that end up falling all over the place.

Best Buy, you absolute scumbags.

My 65-inch tv starts flashing during the Fury v. Wilder fight. It's clear the issue has to be with the tv as I ordered through the espn-plus app downloaded ON THE TV. So no HDMI chord necessary, and clearly its not an issue on that end. Next day, I make an appointment with geek squad to come to the house and fix this thing as I have a two year protection plan. Appointment was made on a Sunday for the following Saturday.

The night before my appointment (two Friday's ago) I get a call from the third-party they've contracted to do this as I'm in an "extended network." Whatever, didn't know that when I purchased the plan but who cares. Guy explains that Best Buy always does this to him in terms of placing appointments without checking whether he has the part. Explains he can have the part delivered and in his possession by the middle of the week. Whatever. Agitated, sure but what's another week, it's not a big deal. We reschedule for the following Saturday (last Saturday).

Last week comes and goes with absolutely no word from either Best Buy or the third party I dealt with. I called the third-party on Thursday asking them to confirm, I get a voice-mail, I leave a message. Nothing. I call Best Buy's Geek Squad yet again in order to determine what is going on with this madness. I get referred to "Geek Squad Special Forces" (I'm not making this up) who then literally have the unmitigated balls to cop an attitude with me when I express my disappointment that rather than take my information down so they can contact me with an update that I have to then reach out again on Monday and go through the same rigamarole with an operator, explaining the situation and getting referred back to them.

Of course, because I just want this resolved, I call back Monday. Operator is actually very sympathetic, can't understand how this happened because third-party providers are supposed to give a reason directly to Best Buy why they're missing appointments scheduled by the company, or Best buy then moves to find someone else. Acknowledges according to his notes they haven't heard from the provider. Schedules "one more appointment on Thursday to see what's going on and if this can get resolved, otherwise we'll have to look for someone else."

How much do you want to bet I don't get the courtesy of a phone call or any information today or tomorrow and have to call Best Buy tomorrow afternoon? I don't know what else to do except box up the tv and just show up at a store screaming bullshit.

Whatever, didn't know that when I purchased the plan but who cares. Guy explains that Best Buy always does this to him in terms of placing appointments without checking whether he has the part. Explains he can have the part delivered and in his possession by the middle of the week. Whatever. Agitated, sure but what's another week, it's not a big deal. We reschedule for the following Saturday (last Saturday).

Last week comes and goes with absolutely no word from either Best Buy or the third party I dealt with. I called the third-party on Thursday asking them to confirm, I get a voice-mail, I leave a message. Nothing. I call Best Buy's Geek Squad yet again in order to determine what is going on with this madness. I get referred to "Geek Squad Special Forces" (I'm not making this up) who then literally have the unmitigated balls to cop an attitude with me when I express my disappointment that rather than take my information down so they can contact me with an update that I have to then reach out again on Monday and go through the same rigamarole with an operator, explaining the situation and getting referred back to them.

Of course, because I just want this resolved, I call back Monday. Operator is actually very sympathetic, can't understand how this happened because third-party providers are supposed to give a reason directly to Best Buy why they're missing appointments scheduled by the company, or Best buy then moves to find someone else. Acknowledges according to his notes they haven't heard from the provider. Schedules "one more appointment on Thursday to see what's going on and if this can get resolved, otherwise we'll have to look for someone else."

How much do you want to bet I don't get the courtesy of a phone call or any information today or tomorrow and have to call Best Buy tomorrow afternoon? I don't know what else to do except box up the tv and just show up at a store screaming bullshit.
Next time get your TV from Costco. They’re pretty gangsta about returns

Edit: also Best Buy warranties are usually a waste of money. I used to work there

Practically all extra warranties are a waste of money. Much like insurance, the business relies on people not collecting their due. Is it any wonder they always make it hard to do so?

Pretty much this. I habitually say "Bless you" when someone sneezes. It's not about religion, it's just a social norm and is considered polite behavior.

I think the better approach is cultures that instead wish good health rather than a blessing, but the culture of this side of the planet has its origins so it is what it is.

Also, it is coming from a supplier about 20km north of me, but of course I can't go pick it up. They have to have it picked up by a carrier who drives it 40km to the other side of the city to put it in a warehouse and forget about it for several days before maybe if they can be arsed transporting it another 40km to my house.

Ugh. Great addition to this thread. Let me take a minute to talk about those freaking picture captchas. "Click every box that has a traffic light in it." Well, define a traffic light. The light itself? The bar suspending the light? The pole suspending the bar? Depending on how you've interpreted it there are anywhere from 2 to 7 boxes with a traffic light in it, and of course whatever my interpretation is it's not the correct one so I have to do about six of the freaking things until my failure to read your freaking mind is trumped by pure blind bastard luck. freak right off you cunts.

one of the funniest things khaled has done imo is make an IG account of his then newly-born son asad and post a blurry sideview pic of khaled having sex with his wife on that account

he then posted something like 'ASAD TAKE THIS DOWN' from his own account under that pic

I do love that clip of him though. I use it a lot.

What would be nice would be if I could at least generate some consistency. I’m biking to and from the grocery store so I’m only buying what can fit in a messenger bag but it never seems to last as long as the previous trip.

What I’m really looking forward to is the infection rate spiking because of the flu (it’s already started) and people deciding that they need to buy all of the flour, TP, and pasta again.

I just read an article this morning that baking goods and canned goods are starting to disappear again.

Speaking of which, to worry less about spoilage, you all need to invest in beans and rice/pasta. With a stocked spice cabinet and a supply of olive oil, you'll have food for long periods without spoilage.

Minor annoyance here, but when you hear people on the news reporting on a story about something in the Latino community, and they speak in a typical American English dialect/accent until they get to the word "Latino". They then proceed to pronounce the word "Latino" in the strongest Spanish accent possible, then proceed straight back to normal American English. Why? I would understand if there was no English word for Latino but there is. It's Latino.  I would understand if they did the entire report with a Latin accent.

Have reached the age where the subconscious fear of my own mortality translates every slight physical stimulus or response to cancer, heart disease or covid. Have had heartburn, slight dizziness and slight shortness of breath today. Fairly sure it's a sign that I have all those ailments.

On the plus side, at least we Gen X types finally got over our fear of AIDS. So that's nice.

Right there with you.  Every fart = colon cancer.

Hate that excrement.  I had a certified letter coming to me, and the USPS lady just wrote the "You weren't here" note and threw it in my mailbox.  Didn't even come to the door.  My wife was there.  My Nest camera caught her lazy derriere at the curb.  It was important and time-sensitive, and of course, on a Friday, so I had to wait until Monday and go pick it up myself at the post office.

This has happened to us multiple times in the past at our current address but the guy on our route right now is good. In September he recognized us while we were out taking the kids on a walk and waved us down because he had a delivery that needed a signature (it was beer).

Because they might have other things to do right now that are more important, but don't want you to think that they're ignoring you.

people that read books like 'the subtle art of not giving a freak' or rupi kaur's poetry

In college, there was a book called The 48 Laws of Power that some frat acquaintances of mine were raving about.  You could tell when each had read it because they immediately became orders of magnitude douchier.

"Drinking Alone Under the Moon" - Li Bo

  A pot of wine among the flowers
  I drink alone, no kith or kin near
  I raise my cup and invite the moon to join me
  for it and my shadow make a party of three
  But alas, the moon is unconcerned with my drinking
  and my shadow merely follows me around,
  Again I raise my cup in supplication
  for pleasure must be sought while it is still spring.
  I sing, and the moon moves back and forth,
  I dance, and my shadow falls about at random
  When sober, we seek pleasure in the company of others
  when drunk, we each go our own way.
  Therefore let us pledge a fellowship without human ties
  and meet again, at the far end, of the Milky Way.

how about

young people who grew up with genetically fit bodies without much work, starting to work out for a couple of months and then branding themselves as health/fitness accounts peddling health/fitness products while boasting of their 'results', which was a fit body even before they actually started to work out

or women who have obviously gotten surgery/BBLs posting some fitness videos and then pushing product like it had anything to do with their appearance

No one can step foot on my driveway without my dog informing half the street that they are there, so the whole "we called, you were out, freak you" notice doesn't fly here.

Also I live in Buttfucknowhere ON, so they just leave stuff on the porch. No one steals stuff around here, a significant proportion of people in my subdivision are either serving or retired law enforcement.

after one second of video play, an ad came on that was mandatory viewing that couldn't be skipped. waited until the ad ended, pressed 'continue playing vid'

vid plays for two more seconds, then youtube again cuts to two consecutive ads that i couldn't skip. wtf

youtube has been a problem for years. ever since the 'cool kids' monotonized the entire platform with their corny prank vids back 6-7 years ago, nearly every vid has become unwatchable with the mandatory ads you have to wait through before/during every single vid.

As the old saying goes: if the product is free, then you're the product.

I actually don't find Youtube ads bothersome at all. Most of the time if they even appear there's a Skip Ads button anyway, and I've definitely never had one appear midway through a video. Although I don't watch Youtube TV, 98% of what I use it for is music and DIY excrement.

Two bites into my sandwich and either:

2. The roll/bread has come apart completely and I now need to eat it with a fork.

You need to use sandwich toothpicks, the tall ones you get in burgers at restaurants.

Your bread to meat layering is off, its not evenly stacked. You need to compensate for your poor sandwich building with these picks while eating, and potentially cut it in half/into thirds at the max only if it's really big.

You can grab em on Amazon for like 10 bucks for a 100. You should do that.

People who tell you their personality traits.

"I take a long time to lose my temper, but when I do you don't want to be around me."

"I'm a little bit crazy."

"I don't have a filter, I'm a very blunt person."

And so on, and so forth. Firstly, I don't need you to tell me my opinion of you, I'll figure that out myself. Secondly, this is almost always a cover up either for your insecurities, or the fact that you know you're a bit of a queynte. Any which way, if you start telling me what kind of a person you are, especially if I don't already know you very well, I'm going to assume you're a lady garden.

I think that's what everyone wants, and what the proposal is - we've basically said we'll stay on DST permanently but we can't do it unless Quebec and NY do as well. Except it won't be known as Daylight Savings Time any more, it will just be called "time".

-paul mccartney

Nice call - that is seasonal saccharine suckage

Since JE said that you're the prime rib (Arby's guy that you are) responsible for this sanctuary of sorts...I wish you and all here enough wassail to float a battleship...

from a previously penned item of my under the pseudonym of senator jay bullworth


'Twas the night before Christmas, and kickin' at my house
Was moi, Jill and Janet, and nary a spouse
Yours truly was hung by the chimney with care
Knowing full well that Janet and Jill would get there

The girls were all nestled and snug in my bed
While thoughts of debauchery danced in my head
Soft as a feather and lying together
Were Janet and Jill, in teddies of leather

When suddenly from the roof, there rose such a clatter,
first tumbling.....then silence.....then a sickening splatter
Opening my window, I looked down below
There, drunk, was Santa, with his raindeers in tow

I called down below: "Yo Santa, is it you?
And why did you crash, I thought your sled flew?"
He said while en route from urban to suburban,
That 'Blitzen' spiked his Coke, with a gallon 'o bourbon.

I invited him in, for it was so cold outside
Some coffee might help Santa's buzz to subside,
But Santa instead, reached inside of his wool,
And whipped out a 'Red Bull' and lit up a Kool

He start to 'chrip' once he noticed my girls,
"Why delavan, you swine, who are these young pearls?"
It was then that I knew: Santa staged his fake 'crash'
He was looking for sympathy, from my girlie stash

Then out of the corner came muh homie Jerome
Whose instincts are sharper than the sharpest knife honed
"Santa you scoundrel, you are without class,
get those toys to those kids, or I WILL kick your ***!"

Santa then slumped, and then turned away
A picture of dejection, a lump of dismay,
I called out to him, least he quit on his rounds:
"Get those toys to those kids, and you won't wear a frown"

He brightened and smiled: "is it true? say you will!
I'm tired of passing cathouse windowsills
If you will keep your promise, for sure what it's worth,
I'll give out these toys to every kid on this earth!"

Then Santa dispensed with the gifts in his sack,
Made good on my promise, Santa's 'helpers' were wack
But he didn't know, 'till the bright lights came on,
That we fixed him up with "greased elves" ...in a huff, Santa was gone!

His sled and raindeer, in a flash, was airborne,
'Cause fat men and 'greased elves' do not make for good porn,
"delavan, you tricked me!..and that wasn't right,
So GFY, and to all a 'good night'!"


Wishing all of you every happiness in the world ...,
I am,
delavan

It did though, it's just not in common usage anymore.  Per wiki:

Quote
Defensive tackle (DT);
Sometimes called a "defensive guard", defensive tackles play at the center of the defensive line. Their function is to rush the passer and stop running plays directed at the middle of the line of scrimmage. The most interior defensive tackle who sometimes lines up directly across from the ball and is, therefore, almost nose-to-nose with the offense's center is often called a "nose tackle" (alternately "nose guard" or "middle guard"). The nose tackle is most common in the 3–4 defense. Most defensive sets have one or two defensive tackles. If one employs a second defensive tackle, sometimes referred to as an "under tackle", they are usually a bit faster than the nose tackle.

It did though, it's just not in common usage anymore.  Per wiki:


But no one ever says it, primarily because it's a stupid name. Guards are called guards because it's their job to guard the QB. There's no one to guard on defense. (I'll ask you to stop there and not continue the logic to why OTs are called tackles because I don't have a good answer.)

OG isn't a thing. It's G. It shouldn't annoy me but it does. See also "centre-half" in soccer, a position that no longer really exists but we still use it to refer to a central defender (who is correctly called a centre back).

No one said when this thread was started that these annoyances have to be significant, or even correct.

In a major upset, Rich Strike, an 80-1 long shot, wins the Kentucky Derby.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Rich Strike, the 80-1 shot ridden by Sonny Leon and trained by Eric Reed — certainly not household names in horse racing, let alone the sport’s biggest stage — rallied to capture the 148th Kentucky Derby on Saturday in front of the first full crowd at Churchill Downs since 2019.

Before Friday, Rich Strike was not even in the field. He drew into the race when Ethereal Road was scratched.

The best waitstaff at all the restaurants I worked in often didn't write excrement down (except for larger parties), the worst waitstaff always had to write excrement down. It's not about being impressive it's about being efficient and being in flow. The most mistakes always happen when nervous waitstaff use note-taking as a crutch and never get to the point where remembering excrement becomes automatic.

FYI, the "rice trick" doesn't really work.

A slightly better option is to keep any of those silica packets that are in everything these days (the things labeled "Do not eat"). The purpose of them is to absorb moisture. If you have a wet phone or whatever, put it in a ziplock back with silica packets and hope for the best.

But your better bet is to not get your electronics wet. (Obviously, not controllable in the above case.)

15% of Puck's appetizers?  That's a 2nd mortgage.

Ok boomer
Pull out your flip phone and make the waiter show you how to get a PDF to show up on it.
Not what I'm talking about.

When you're on a restaurant's website trying to see what they have before you go there. Not at the restaurant. And you click the link for the menu and instead of taking you to another page it downloads a PDF of the menu.

I do think scanning a QR code at the restaurant is dumb but I don't have difficulty doing it.

I typically film myself so I can check my form and make sure I'm actually moving properly. The ones who think their phone being on a tripod means that they are in their own private recording studio and complain when people walk through an obvious walkway need to have their memberships revoked.
