Couldn't hear the TV over my crunchy snacks
This is my daily. I am harder of hearing than my wife so I have to turn the TV up, but then it is disrupting her sleep.
So then I sometimes use headphones, but sometimes the odd quietness of the room at that point causes her to wake up.
🤷♂️
I live in a nice village, my company were going litter picking volunteering which I really wanted to do but after day 1 (found a few items) it was just going for a walk with an empty bag.
I considered dropping lower the night before my son had to do a litter pick for a beavers badge
A couple of weeks ago, my favorite coffeeshop was closed. And, to make matters worse, my backup coffeeshop was closed. I was very lucky that my second backup was open. Otherwise, I would have been forced to go to the fucking Starbucks.
My 65" oled tv is pretty laggy, and there's supposed to be an Optimize section in the menu, but there isn't, and the firmware is up to date.
I ate too much, and now I feel so bloated that all I can bring myself to do is sit on my comfortable sofa
I dated a girl who’s family never kept leftovers from meals even thanksgiving dinner they would throw out anything not eaten after dinner.
Wow. To me, Thanksgiving leftovers > the actual meal.
This hurts my soul.
Wtf leftovers are like half the fun
Thanksgiving sandwiches are amazing.
Would they at least make less food to avoid the leftovers???????!!!!!! 😢
Nope they were very wasteful. And they all thought they were so much better than anyone else.
When I lived with my grandparents for a while I had to use the bathroom without heated floors whenever the maid was cleaning the other one. My current bathroom straight up doesn't have heating.
My friend is a multi-multi-multi-millionaire. Her father started a retail giant in my country. She has her own pool building with (i think it's called) a free span roof. It is big enough to contain 6 copies of the house I used to own, exterior, roof, chimney and all. She spends more money per month heating the building and pool (which has not been used in 3 years) and paying maintenance and upkeep, than most people pay on their mortgage per year. She complained that the cost of natural gas went up 1.2%. She was spitting mad, tearing up the bill, balling it up and throwing it down in a huff. She also has a 30 car single span roof garage with row after row of industrial racking which contains mostly packrat stuff. She keeps that "Quonset" as she calls it, a balmy 20C all year through our -25C winters. And also complains about that cost.
I bought the wrong dual arm monitor stand, and couldn't refund it.
The ice maker stopped working and When I make Sodastream I pour it over ice so I wouldn't make Sodastream soda and was "forced" to drink the Cokes in the fridge. It took 2 days before the ice machine was fixed.
My local supermarket keeps the dark beers in the cooler!
C'mon guys, the darks are brewed to taste best at room temperature... and I want it now.
Fresh hop beers being stacked center aisle at room temp.
Yum.
The firstest world problem ever: Bored horny teen boys memed us into fascism through social media manipulation and no one is willing to face facts about it
and no one is willing to face facts about it
What do you mean by this? I think a lot of people can see that things aren't right with many teen boys.
Yes but they stop at that instead of seeing them as the cultural mine canary they are, and the proof of it is still the fact no one is doing anything about it
And you are proof yourself not realizing that the teenage boys during Gamergate are about to hit their 30s soon and they didn't stop being easily swayed misogynistic tools
And their indoctrinating a whole new generation through tate and rogan and the like
While everyone seems to just tut tut and say 'wow teen bois amirite
You really have no fucking clue how bad or deep this problem is and it's so well known that Chinese aristocrats wrote about it a thousand years ago, they called it 'The Bare Brances problem', and it resulted in numerous bandit uprisings resulting in entire villages getting raped and pillaged
And it all started with socially disenfranchised young men who had no future
Just like now
You really, really don't know how bad it's going to get. I've spent the last year prepping a remote cabin because our family has survived two dictators and they passed down their tips
If you aren't doing something to secure your family's safety now, it is likely too late unless you are wealthy enough to drop and go at a moments notice.
and the proof of it is still the fact no one is doing anything about it
I don't think that's accurate, there are many truths people acknowledge without taking any action to improve things.
And you are proof yourself not realizing that the teenage boys during Gamergate are about to hit their 30s soon and they didn’t stop being easily swayed misogynistic tools
Oh we're just making things up now? Okay buddy
What interest do you have in so eagerly denying the obvious? I'm pretty sure if I check your post history I'll find some interesting things
Oh god I took a look at your comment history and it reads like a bot. You made like 100 posts in the last 24 hours and they're all practically the same thing.
Did teenage boys drive us to fascism, or are the canary? The canary can't be the cause of the disaster.
Did you ever think that it's loud judgemental people like you which open the door to rightwing charlatans to sell a bag full of pleasant lies to teens?
If you're a real human, you're insufferable 👋
that's so cool dude
Get those little pressure lines on your fingers carrying bags of groceries into the house.
When my WiFi has a 5-10 minute hiccup because my ISP is upgrading its network.
How will I ever last?
Damn. This sounds like Comcast to me.
With my current provider if it happened they have to discount my bill.
I don't know what's the most first world problem I've experienced, but the most recent was when I tried to use my roasting pan on my relatively new stove today and found that the roasting pan is not induction compatible.
So I put it in the Goodwill pile and ordered a fancy brand pan to replace it.
I drank too much kombucha in a short time period and it gave me a terrible bellyache.
The most first world problem I ever experienced was years ago, some games show tips and info during load screens, well my new computer was loading the games faster than I was able to read the tips, the moment I voiced my complaint about it I knew it was the most first world problem I would ever experience.
I now have a motorized desk at work and unlike the one we have at home, you cannot single-tap the memory setting and just watch it adjust. I need to hold it until my desired height is reached.
Pretty sure the ones at my work (only by the higher-ups and the people responsible for ordering stuff) don't have presets. So since my desk was just outside my boss' boss' door, whenever he was out I would pop in and move his desk halfway up. That way, every single time he walked in to use his desk, he'd had to move it whether he wanted to stand or sit.
I didn't dislike him or anything. I (and every person I told to do it when they went into his office) just thought it was funny.
The thing is, the desk in the office does have presets. You still have to hold the button until it stops at the saved height.
THEY STIOPED SELLING THESE I LOCED THEM SO MUCH 😭😭😭🐍
100% better than Pringles due to their girth.
But the salt being on the opposite side weirds me out sometimes.

Your local store may not be carrying them, but it looks like Lay's still makes them.
OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!
I searched the entire Internet for them a couple of years ago and there were some for like $20 each and nothing else, I guess they started making them again? you are a lifesaver!!!
Bottle kind of looks like it's for an abrasive cleaning powder for kitchen
