stupid first world problems you're dealing with

What the fuck did they do to Tapatalk? That shit is totally unusable on the last update.

Also neither cats nor dogs should be domesticated, but if one must have an animal in the house, the cat is clearly the correct option.

I was sick all last week, felt better over the weekend, now I feel like it's coming back. Time to clean every fucking thing in my house.

 

Also, on the subject of cleaning: one of my roommates likes to invite people over, make a mess, and clean it up weeks later. God fucking damn. I washed a mountain of dishes last week because I was tired of staring at them (for two weeks) and then two days later he comes home and makes a giant mess again. It's still there.

Put them on his bed

What a cunt, I hate people like that with a passion.

^ Have at the motherfucker, people like that won't make the effort unless you have a go at them (preferably in a gently-gently manner, of course) and remind them how inconsiderate they're being.

 

My fwp: went to Tescos today, loaded up a full big shop, got everything laid out at the till, and realised I'd left my card at home in my other jeans. Had to do the walk of shame around the shop putting everything back, go home, get the card, come back to the shops, re-do the exact same shop, and finally pay up and walk home. Groundhog shop. In hindsight I probably could have asked them if I could leave the trolley there until I'd gone home, but ho hum.

Clothes horse just broke now Im drying clothes in the airing cupboard and on radiators.

Poor horsey :/ hope he gets better soon! 

i dry my clothes with a hairdryer usually. leaves them so much softer.

I accidentally flung a speck of toothpaste into my left eye this morning. It had a brief, minty burn.

Gotta meet up with a restaurant owner at midnight to discuss doing sound for a show tomorrow night.  Doing sound for a show tomorrow night is a FWS but having to have a midnight meeting the night before is slightly FWP.

My grandmother passed away a couple of weeks ago and it's been weird. I feel like she's still here but I miss her like crazy.

 

I’m sorry, dude. I woke up missing my own grandmother just this morning.

I've done this a few times as well as I am generally unorganised in my personal life and dislike carrying a wallet, so just carry round my bank card in whichever trousers I wear...

 

BUT each time Morrison's just let me park the full trolley to the side while I drive home and pick up the card - at least 10-15 minutes in total probably.  (Granted I don't tend to by any frozen stuff) but they have no issue with me leaving that trolley there.

 

Did Tesco staff make you return everything to the shelf...stuff that.

They must have other qualities which makes the people who they lie to overlook their flaws and want to keep them in their lives, Bulk. Until you've walked in their shoes you don't know how you would react. They may emit positive energy in other aspects of their being that you just can't get enough of, preventing you from confronting their untruths. The most diplomatic way to deal with this problem would be to take them to one side and say "this is my truth, tell me yours..."

 

and furthermore, that "if you tolerate this" then "your children will be next"

My condolences, that sucks. I lost my Danish grandma a couple of years back and I still miss her a lot. Danish grandmas are the best! They bring the hygge and a never-ending stream of delish homely foods.

They do.

Fuck...

family loss can fuck off, been surrounded by death, illness and institutional healthcare incompetence for the last 3 years

 

i know we dont decide these things, that its the way the universe & nature handle the mortality of life, that theres probably never been a better time to be alive in terms of disease control & palliative care provision....but death dont have no mercy in any land

 

found one way to honour lost loved ones is to make their favourite meals with family, play their favourite music when the moods suits and visit their favourite places, on the 1 hand it can sharpen the sense of absence but it can also provide subtle, warming, gentle pathways that facilitate grief both for the individual & the broader family

 

counselling offers an array of options, everyone handles grief in their own way....but thank the gods that these things are even accessible in the first place, something to consider if family members or yourself need support along the way

i am more than machine, but less than human. my memory holds the knowledge of human development, but i am a child.

Very anxious

Squee -- sorry to hear about your grandma, my condolences. Pet good dogs or cats? Might not help in your situation, but it helped me when my grandpa passed and I was feeling blue

Re:the sickness -- I used to get sick like that on and off for months at a time. Turns out I had a bunch of structural issues in my schnozz. 4000$ surgery later (thanks insurance, otherwise it'd be 40k) and I have been sick twice since I got it 3 years ago.

 

Re: the roommate - I've been there. I've straight up resorted to consolidating the mess and putting it in their room. If they wanna sleep where they shit, that's cool, but it's not my deal to clean messes or remind them to clean up like a decent human being.

 

Had an old roommate who I swear thought dishes would grow legs and move themselves once they colonized with enough microflora...

Have you tried a heroic dose of psychedelics in a non-ideal setting? Edited September 23, 2017 by Audioblysk
