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!

My family is out of the country and left me in charge of the food for my older brother and myself during the meantime. I made this meal yesterday, and after he ate it, he made a complaint about it and wanted “food,” as in something that was “more fulfilling” and less “kiddie”…

Spent an hour clearing this spot yesterday, owner of the bar across the street drove past me and watched me doing it. I left for 15 minutes this morning and he parked there

My daughter’s tablet has the age rating set at 9+.

For some reason I needed to approve a game rated for 4+.

I was just trying to poop before my name was yelled across the house.

My wife thinks I'm crazy for cutting my grilled cheese this way; am I nuts or is this not a normal thing to do? Lol

In my defense, I despise the vertical cut, and a diagonal cut is too much of an over correction imo, especially as I was still dipping this in some soup.

A 5th is apparently 310 calories. Yes, I can do the math but I'm mildly infuriated at the insinuation that I won't. Nobody cuts pizza like this.

Between the space heater and constant baking, I've got it up to 53F. There is no emergency service line. I have the cell number for a handyman they sometimes call, but last time he was here, he hit on me. Yay slumlords.

my college is closed today it was only announced on instagram

543 Upvotes

fully walked through the blizzard up the hill to go to my classes, early even and i’m never early a day in my life, and campus is closed.

i just don’t understand why there wasn’t an email or anything or why none of my professors did an announcement. like my school has sent out school wide emails for less. i hardly use instagram and i’ve never thought to check it for important information like this.

most of all im sad i cant get the latte i was motivating myself with :(

Close friend tells me it’s “passive aggressive” to use periods in my texts. Then tells me not to take my frustration out on him.

Edit: this post I'd getting some traction so I figured I'd add some extra context since people are getting their panties in a twist about why I responded the way I did, or why I didn't use periods the entire time. Me and this guy have been friends for six years. We met online, get along great, are very close. NO he's not negging me and neither of us are interested in each other. He's one of the most intelligent and educated guys I know, but sometimes he can be very self-centered. He writes for a living and knows how to use proper grammar. A few days ago in passing he said it was passive aggressive to use periods a lot in texts, and I told him that is just how I type and it was not personal. I told him I usually try to make sure my texts are readable, for clarity, rather than being grammatically perfect since it is not for my employer or is not academic. Oftentimes I am on my laptop texting back, sometimes i skip out on capital letters. I took note of the conversation and tried to avoid them in short text exchanges to accommodate his feelings. Today I get this text. I responded "okay" because this text message was not an invitation to another conversation. This was clearly a command and I have other more important matters than this to deal with. Okay will suffice, Hopefully that clears some things up for people.

FYI I’m the one always ending up washing the dishes even after cooking. I love him to bits and pieces, but this is one of his “enemy” chores.

Turbo Tax wouldn’t let me E-File without Scanning my face with my smart phone to “verify identity”

748 Upvotes

This was after I scanned in my gov ID, after 6 years of using them with the same SSI, and I tried multiple avenues, until I gave up and decided to mail in my docs.

I refused my face scan, as I do for all services that require it. It’s giving palantir recognition vibes. I never even did Clear during Covid.

Just an fyi for those looking to file taxes with them.

EDIT: I say this because privacy of facial recognition is possibly the one thing we have left. Don’t submit willingly.

Anyone else suggesting otherwise is a bootlicker who has no value for or understanding of the U.S. Constitution.

Father in law expected us to eat 12 year old beef.

He brought so much over- he had it all in his deep freezer, expecting us to eat all of it, so that it didn’t go to waste.

He packed both of our freezers with all of this meat, knowing it was 12 years old. Without asking if we even wanted it
