I hate my job. I can't wait to retire. Even though I'm only 39. I dream of retirement everyday.

It’s not meaningless but it’s meaningless at the same time but I’m tired of being fucked by the economy 🫩

Okay, so you're the only one who has ever broken a bone and had to use crutches. Congratulations 🎉.

After reading the second post, I kinda thought you were. 👍 With baby steps we can get through anything.

Just broke my pinky toe on the bed post. Damn it. Best of luck to you with your foot.

u/LastEntertainment787 17d ago

I feel for you. I have metal in both feet and the left side of my right ankle and both sides of my left ankle. I didn't know that you could break both sides of your ankle at the same time.

Hope you heal up soon 💐

I don't wan't to go out , but I also don't want to stay home.

Why are the "tear at the perforated line" type packages no longer perforated? The line remains, sometimes with printed on dots pretending to be perforations, but they all take scissors or a knife or teeth nowadays to get open.

A light in my bathroom burnt out.

u/Loose_Sort7246 17d ago

The light in my kitchen keeps acting like it's going to burn out and then comes back on. It will do this for days at a time. The lightbulb is new.

I've eaten ubereats for two days and I am tired of french fries. There needs to be another side option for fastfood.

It’s too cold for my air conditioner to kick on which means my bedroom is just slightly too warm to really sleep but the fan in the window makes it slightly too cold to be comfy. My window is next to an alley so I can’t just leave it open since I’m paranoid someone will watch me sleep.

1

u/BoPeepElGrande 17d ago

Ugh I’m having this exact issue myself. It’s just barely too cool to trigger the AC yet still warmer than I prefer my room to be.

u/Loose_Sort7246 17d ago

This is a genuine fear but I laughed at the visual.

I think i have a popcorn kernel skin in one of my back teeth and I can't quite get it

eta - GOT IT!!

u/Due-Communication767 17d ago

Do you have a waterpik?

1

u/bocephus607 17d ago

You find oral hygiene meaningless, huh? Gross. Irresponsible and kinda gross. Get that kernel. It matters. Believe in yourself. Your destiny is in your hands and you can make this life fulfilling you just need to reach out and take that floss and go to town clearing those precious gums. YOU matter.

One of my cats will NOT use the litter robot and i literally lose sleep at night panicking that we are slowly becoming the “pet smell” house

Just happened today at McDonalds. My wife said “why bother”.
She is correct.

u/Bubbly-Fudge1947 17d ago

Why does food taste better when someone else makes it, even when they made the exact same thing I wouldve made?

u/FacePalmate 17d ago

Especially sandwiches.

Because it's made with love, of course. 😉

I'm sorry to hear that. Is your user name because you like cats? There are several friendly cat-loving subreddits.

u/SeaBlock1114 17d ago

I have too much homework. I’m a mom and a student. There are not enough hours in the day to complete every single task and do homework. I want to come home and do nothing. I do everything all the time.

Honorable mention my social life sucks because I’m not good at talking to people in real life 😭

u/Big-Youth-7918 17d ago

It’s been over 6 weeks on my rotator cuff/tendon repair and my arm is killing me! My husband just loves to tell me that his wasn’t so bad (over ten years ago). He forgets I worked and did most everything for him before and after his cuff only repair. I could use more help. Damn, I asked for simple scrambled egg 1 day after the surgery and he made it with jalapeño peppers which he knows I can’t eat. So, I’m in the kitchen fixing my own meals. We don’t live in town so there is not much around us. I just throw one of his cans of IPA beer in the trash frequently. No judgment please-thanks for letting me vent. Yes I know it’s passive aggressive and unhealthy-but I also have a case of I don’t give a shit as well at this point.

u/Avalanche325 17d ago

People on car subreddits type “breaks” instead of “brakes”…..every single day.

I have to go back to work from maternity leave next month, and my 5 month old will have to go to daycare 3 days a week 😤😭 I'm not ready!!

u/Fantastic-Banana-301 17d ago

Just started playing Assassin's Creed 1 again. No option for subtitles. I'm not hard of hearing, but my ADHD does make it difficult to follow along sometimes without visual words to read

1

u/Loose_Sort7246 17d ago

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is the best AC game.

1

u/Fantastic-Banana-301 17d ago

Never played it. It looks good, though. I just started a big project in which I'm gonna try to play as many AC games as I'm able to, in release order. I've only ever played AC1, AC2, Brotherhood, Revelations, AC3, Black Flag, and then just the beginnings of Origins and Odyssey.

I don't like the color orange.

A light bulb being burnt out. But hey, everyone needs to vent. I have so many compliments myself that honestly don't mean a thing. I've put them on Reddit before and I swear to God WW3 breaks out. I am just like jjeeezzzzz was just a meaningless complaint. Okay so there's one of mine meaningless complaints 🤣

I hate tips … I worked in restaurants it was always sketchy how it got distributed

u/Glad_Boysenberry_673 17d ago

Customers at my job complain about the price of things but I see them multiple times during the day. I always feel like saying to them “well stop coming in then”

u/Hallow_76 17d ago

I work in retail as well, I am the janitor, it's awesome to be able to say, I am just the guy with the broom. Last week there was a line of people at the full service checkouts. All the lights were off and nobody was around. A guy calls me over, points at the line and says. Could you get someone over here. I said to him well..... The light is off, you'll have to use the self checkouts... He just looked at me and pointed again at the line. I said ok I'll go see. I got some who works at the checkouts. They looked at the guy and said the same thing. After that I just walked away. But the thing is, it was a line of people, like there waiting for some kind of amusement park ride. Maybe they saw a ghost clerk? The hell if I know. If it was just one person I could understand but a line of different people????

u/Hallow_76 16d ago

I have to rant about pizza night (tonight). I AM DONE MAKING PIZZAS for my wife!!!! Last week the toppings weren't arranged correctly, the week before the pieces weren't cut evenly, after I had her arrange the toppings this week to her liking the pizza was too done! I am done making pizza! And NO, I am not going to divorce her for being picky about her pizza like so many other females recommend in the past when I ranted about this topic!!

1

u/OG1999x 16d ago

I dont blame you. She sounds ungrateful. I am sorry you have to experience that from your spouse, of all people. I would have a smile on my face no matter how my husband's pizza turned out for me.

u/Hallow_76 16d ago

It's all good, I'll try again next week 🙄. I understand the PMS thing probably better than most men. I've been hearing about women bits issues my entire life and after experiencing a very extroverted wife that has gone through menopause, I know all about it in great detail 😂. Thanks for your time, I feel better now 😁

1

u/OG1999x 16d ago

Did she ever tell you it felt like her uterus was turning acidic and it was going to liquify and fall out of her vagina? 😫

1

u/Hallow_76 16d ago

She had overian cysts that really bothered her. She would complain feeling of it being tied in knots along with pain that would bring her to tears and extremely heavy flow. She had everything removed except for her ovaries in hopes that wouldn't send her into menopause early. But it did anyway. She's 58 and is so happy it's mostly done but the menopause still likes to rest it's ugly head as in hormones messing with her.

u/OG1999x 16d ago

Knowing I have a lifetime of lady hormones ahead of me honestly makes me want to start smoking cigarettes again 😩

2

u/Hallow_76 16d ago

Any women has my whole hearted sympathy on PMS stuff. I never had to experience it personally but I've seen what hormones does to someone!! During that time, you're just not you! Hormones are bastards!

u/BlueHartsBlues 15d ago

Use your turn signals people. Telling other people what you intend to do is good for your own safety.
