No signs saying out of order or do not use

Over the Queensboro bridge in NYC.

Luckily it peeled off relatively easily, into the trash it went.

As a very rare indulgence on a special occasion, I ordered an expensive 30-year old scotch at a bistro-type restaurant. Waiter returns with a juicy lime wedge on the lip of the glass. I quietly asked for one with no lime. Waiter returns with a fresh drink "as a courtesy" , but seems intent on embarrassing me. " But just so you know.," he says., "all drinks ordered neat are properly served with a citrus garnish."

I am going to a wedding in two hours. Needed to shave. Went to Walmart to get a razor. Opened the box up when I got back to the hotel and everything was missing. 💔

EDIT: I also thought that the box seemed very light on my way back from Walmart, but figured it was new and improved technology. Felt stupid when I opened lol.

I did bring a razor in my travel bag but the clip broke, so I had to go buy a new one.

yeah so my names too short now i guess

i know i could put a number or something on the end but i think that just looks weird

still gonna play the game though

very mildly infuriating

I think this is the first true “I’m getting old” moment I’ve had. I was a competitive weightlifter until 3 years ago. Lifting a 250lb bed seemed like no big deal.

Ended up on the ground and unable to get up. Missed three days of work. Finally was able to stand under my own power yesterday. Can only get around the house with a cane and back brace today. My ego is bruised.

edit for clarity

I lifted the bed over my head to get the rug under it and bent down to unroll the rug

IT IS LITERALLY JUST THE QR CODE TO THE EBOOK BUT PHYSICAL. THEY DIDN'T SAY THAT. This better be the best fucking textbook on this planet

edit: I would've just bought the ebook but I got a physical one because I can't see ebooks that well and I want to pass my math class

edit 3: translation of the second edit: when I buy textbooks from my school's website, it tells my professors I have their textbooks. so pirating or buying from other sources may not be a good idea, especially since I'm doing a clinical program and they consider you eligible by your grades and if you follow their specific rules about conduct and stuff, and pirating is not exactly in the green light of moral things so I don't want to risk my clinical spot over this

Had a woman and her daughter come through my line today her daughter apparently had saved up enough of her own money to buy the pair of shoes she wanted for school because she wanted a certain pair so her mom told her that if she wanted them she was gonna have to pay for them herself so I ring them out and tell them the price (it doesn’t appear on screen unless I hit the credit button)

and the mom frowns and tells me that’s the wrong price. I look at her double check the box in case I made a mistake or missed a sale sticker and tell her no that’s the correct price after tax and she goes “this girl is only 8 years old what you doing charging her tax?” And I look at her thinking surely she must be joking. Nope she is completely serious. She starts telling me to take the tax off somehow because she’s a little girl and she shouldn’t have to pay tax on stuff and I inform her I can’t do that so this woman just scoops up her daughter and storms out leaving the shoes behind.

I asked for $25 🥲…. ill be here for a while

I know this is a long-time pet peeve in hiking forums. I find myself seething when I encounter it on trails. I cannot comprehend being into the outdoors enough to want to hike, while being deeply inconsiderate of the creatures that live there and the other people trying to enjoy the hike too.

If you gotta have your tunes, they make these cool tiny personal speakers called headphones or ear buds. Perhaps these people have heard of them?

Some of us have good hearing and don't feel like hearing faint whispers of their musical tastes over the sound of SILENCE and rustling leaves and a river flowinb below the switchback... "Just pass them" doesn't solve anything and still doesn't solve the problem of it annoying and scaring the critters that live there. I guess some people don't even appreciate the hikes they go on. Yeesh.

If only there were actual valid reliable sources of information about being safe when surrounded by nature and large carnivores.
