Henlo frens!

Good to see all of you here UwU.

Grab on to your bodypillows, I have a smol announcement about the purpose of this subreddit.

This community is meant as a fun, lighthearted place where we can commiserate with each other about those annoying little irritations that hinder our day to day enjoyment in life.

That means that suitable posts here can be about my children.

And things like a wall socket or tile being placed out of allignment. A crack in a phone screen. Duckling shit on your new car. Incomprehensible software. Mismatched buttons. You know, the little things.

This subreddit isn't meant to incite rage mobs that go after people. For that reason we say:

No reddit meta posts

No posts about being banned from subreddit. No posts about up- or down-votes. No posts about shitty moderators or users or subreddits. No posts about reddit.

All jokes and tomfoolery aside, that sort of thing gets us in trouble with site admins. If we allow one type of post about reddit it then very easily moprhs into allowing posts that directly call out other subreddits or users, we just can't allow any of it.

That rule already existed for years and we have just made it more clearly visible in the sidebar on old and new reddit. We're gonna be a little strict on it for a bit I'm afraid. 🥺

Thank you all for being awesome and have a very Merry Christmas! Celebrate Christmas in the traditional European way, with a suasage roll!

You can choose any of these or none at all when posting whatever you want, it's not like I care your not even my real dad.

For reasons, I was trying to figure out how to spell PENIS in braille. For any other language, I’ve been able to search “what is XYZ word in Arabic/Japanese/Spanish/etc…” and it will show said word in the requested language.

Sucks I can’t write a love letter to my homie though.

That's not milk DoorDash replaced PlanB with a pregnancy test

4.2k Upvotes

A few years ago, when DoorDash first started offering grocery/convenience store deliveries, I ordered Plan B because I was too embarrassed/ ashamed to go buy it myself.

Since it was a “new” feature there wasn’t really an option to select replacements or cancel individual items if something was out of stock. It was pretty much up to the Dasher to figure out a substitution.

My Dasher decided the best “replacement” for Plan B was a pregnancy test.

For anyone wondering, no, I wasn’t pregnant. But I still think about how unhelpful that substitution was.

I'm slightly vexed Lady won’t leave the public dog agility area and says her dog is too aggressive to let my dog in

Post image
18.1k Upvotes

I’m currently car camping with my dog. Mornings start with activities to tire him out. I find out there’s a free agility course near where I spent the night, awesome, ready to go.

When I get there, a lady and her dog is already there. She’s not even doing anything. I talk to her to see about coming in because I figure the agility course is big enough for everyone and again, she isn’t using it.

“No you can’t. My dog can’t be around other dogs. Just use the big dog park.” She pointed to a huge, empty, muddy pit. So I can already see why she didn’t use that one.

WTF? Why are you even here then?

She says she’ll leave in 15 mins anyway. Obviously 15 mins turns to 45. She’s still here, no signs of leaving. I’m still waiting. Best part? She still isn’t doing anything with her dog. At most the dog occasionally paces while she’s on her phone scrolling away. I’m waiting it out in the muddy park out of pure spite and because I know my dog cleans up fast. But I’m still pissed

Edit: Just to add; there was another small dog park area. In this area was the woman’s other reactive dog and her husband. The husband was huge and looked like he’d be more than happy to shoot me so no, I wouldn’t have done anything crazy even if it didn’t put my dog in danger. Didn’t think I’d have to mention that as I didn’t realize everyone here would be so eager to see me and my dog hurt someone or get hurt.

I’m tired. My family is sick. I ran to pickup some meds and ice cream. Saw “black cherry” available which is my favorite so I quickly grabbed it. I didn’t know I had to read the fine print for “Black Cherry”.

Also - the picture isn’t even right. The ice cream is white with sparse amounts of cherry. It’s awful. I’m returning it tomorrow. I think this is BS.

I'm slightly vexed Airbnb host wants to increase my rate by 35% weeks after accepting my booking

I booked a weeklong Airbnb in Costa Rica, doing so for a week to get a long-term discount. It was $230/night, which was on the upper end of what I was willing to spend (especially for 1 bedroom in Costa Rica), but it looked nice. I booked it and the host accepted.

Now, weeks later, the host is saying that there was a pricing error and that I need to pay an additional 35% ($310/night) if I want to stay there. Umm, no thanks...

I'm slightly vexed You're so much prettier than I thought!

1.7k Upvotes

My brother and SIL recently had a baby. They invited the family over to meet the baby. When my SIL's mother answered the door (I had not yet met this person) she immediately assumed I was my younger sister. I corrected her, and she initially argued with me and didn't seem to believe I was who I said I was, which is always a great way to meet someone. She then declared, "wow, you are so much prettier than I thought!" And when my SIL came downstairs with the baby a bit later, she says to her (and within 5 ft of me) the same thing again. My SIL had shared with me before that her mother is "challenging" but hoo boy I thought I would least get to sit down before the shots were fired.

I'm slightly vexed Our little indoor camera has updated and now there's a pay wall to watch the videos is captured.

Post image
804 Upvotes

As the title says. I've had this little USB camera in my house and flat before I moved for a few years to watch the cat(s) while I'm out. At some point in the last week, it's updated and now if you want to actually watch any of the videos it captured, you have to pay a subscription. So it's only useful for viewing live now. Vicohome is the brand, it's not a big brand name product, but after years of use with no issues, this is irritating. Some may even say it's mildly infuriating. Bah and humbug.

Edit: title should say "it's" and not "is" so double mild infuriation? Sorry!

Edit edit: yes it has an SD slot but it doesn't let me watch the videos on the app with one in still, so I would have to put it in a computer to read.

Of course if you're after proper security cameras, a proper wired set is always going to win over something like this. I needed a camera like this at the time just to check up on my cats as we'd moved house and I was in the office a lot.

Interesting to see the discussions on not having a camera like this in the home for security concerns. Valid points and happy to see conversations happening. Mine was only watching the cat chair and we have no kids in the house, just to talk to that aspect.

Earwig icecream Thought my fresh batch of beef jerky was completely covered as I walked away for five minutes. It wasn't.

7.1k Upvotes

I had my WHOLE batch of freshly made beef jerky in a glass Tupperware container and I brought it into work.

I stepped out for a few minutes to take care of something. Came back and reached to open the lid and pull out a piece of jerky when I see stuff moving inside.

I rip the lid off and about ten fat flies come racing out from all over. There's about 5-6 different batches of eggs laid throughout the container.

And the eggs are growing bigger by the minute, it seems.

Our trash is incinerated here, so I'm going to empty everything into a plastic bag, double-bag it for good measure, then toss it in the trash. I hope the grubs enjoy getting roasted alive.

ಠ_ಠ I’m not allowed to drink water while I’m on the store floor

541 Upvotes

Last night, the new assistant store manager told me that he is implementing a new rule in which grocery workers can not have their water bottles out on the store floor while facing or putting out freight. We can only drink our water while in the back or on our breaks.

The reason? He is concerned that it would be a health and safety risk in case the bottle would break and a customer would slip and fall on the water. I suppose this would occur during the time we would go and get supplies to clean up the spill? This concern has never been brought up before within the five years I’ve been working at this grocery store chain.

I still have a lingering cough from a cold I had a few weeks ago. I told him that I have to hydrate frequently. He said that reason doesn’t matter.

We also sell water bottles and can move them around freely but we can’t have our own reusable water bottles.

He could be spending better time and resources that managing when and where people can drink water.
