Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 384

Lol yeah on a serious note it's sad that young kids are being conditioned to think they need a bunch of skincare products they dont need. It's just beauty standards and fear of aging pushed at an even younger age. I remember when getting into makeup/skincare and shopping at sephora felt very niche. In the sense that almost everyone I knew irl just used drugstore stuff and only people who really had it as a hobby shopped higher end stuff. It's like old man yelling at cloud but back in my day we didn't even have youtube tutorials. I'd follow makeup LiveJournal communities and people would upload photos from their digital cameras for step by step instructions on how they did a look. And then there would always be drama because bullies would take their photos and post them to ugly/bad makeup LJ communities. I used to get all my beauty advice from LiveJournal communities and teen magazines. And proactive commercials lmao. Begged for that after the Jessica Simpson commercials and was sure it'd solve all my problems. No such luck

 

I look about 10 years younger than I am. I really don’t have any secrets and took bad care of my skin as a teen. I’m all for starting a good skin care routine at a young age, but not with all the unnecessary stuff. I didn’t start shopping at Sephora until I had adult money in my 20s, got really into it and was almost rouge at Sephora. And even drug store stuff my mom didn’t want to buy or I had a limit of like $6 foundation and other cheap stuff. She hated me wearing makeup and would criticize me if i did it in a certain way and call me names. It was awful. There are good drug store products now days. I also remember being in middle school and the preppy popular girls would have MAC and their nails done (short nail French tip bc it was the sort nail era) and I was jealous bc they had good foundation and i got stuck with crap that didn’t even last all day

 

Not having a dishwasher or a dryer. I feel like all my time is spent washing dishes and hanging up laundry and so all my other chores get neglected. I'm about to start buying paper plates so I don't have all these dishes to wash which goes against everything I am as a person bc I am cheap as hell lol But I'm fucking tired of all these dishes!! And when I cook, I am an absolute disaster so I use like 8 pots and get sauce on the fridge somehow when it isn't even near the stove so I always have a lot to clean up!

 

Yeah, I was just thinking about how little time I have while I was handwashing last night. We're lucky enough to have a dishwasher, but like...by the time I get home from work (usually pooped) and take care of the animals, shower, make dinner, do the dishes...I have maybe an hour to myself tops? If I don't nap after work? It's depressing!

 

I can’t get myself to keep up with dishes and I feel awful about it

 

Hotels charging for parking. Absolute bullshit and I feel like they never used to do that before but now it’s rare to find any that don’t. And when you find one that doesn’t charge it’s not close to anything. It just feels so impossible to even go on a small weekend trip anymore! I’m just trying to stay a single night so I don’t have to drive 2 hours after a concert but idk if I can even afford that.

 

My local store only carries one brand of eggs (it’s cheapy too. I tried them before and I did not like them). They also seem to got rid of their Donald Duck orange juice and they don’t carry Minute Maid oj.


I also left my ear buds at work

 

Trying to nap and the episode of Seinfeld where Elaine gets the organizer and it keeps beeping was playing and I was in the space where I was too tired to stop it but awake enough to want to rage quit life

 

Went to an antique mall and the one booth was “vintage” clothing. Had to stop an older lady from paying $80 for a jacket “from the 80s.” It was from fucking shein!! Still had the tag that said so. The woman had no idea what that was and was just trusting what the seller wrote on the sale tag. Hate people who try and take advantage of people like that!

 

My Internet bill said it’s going to increase my $17. What the actual fuck. That is a ridiculous amount. I’m going to wait until I get my next bill, look at it and call them to see if they have any discounts bc I can’t afford it.

 

Signed up for Paramount+ on its own today (not as an add-on channel to Prime as I got rid of Prime, Amazon can fuck off) and OF COURSE, of all the streaming services and apps and bullshit my “smart” TV has, Paramount+ is NOT found in the LG App Store or any other place on this goddamn TV lol. I could plug my FireStick back in to use it but what the absolute fuck. I scrolled for like 5-10 minutes through all the apps available to download and some of the shit listed is absurd and simply cannot be real. Yet Paramount+ can’t be found.

Not sure if I should be pissed at LG (my TV) or Paramount or both.

 

That’s weird. I have an LG TV that I bought in like 2019 and have the Paramount+ app on it

Just wait til you find out Paramount+ is barely worth having unless you’ve got the Showtime add-on

 

When my coworker says “applicable” when she means “eligible”

 

Memes, in general.

 

LG TV apps are so, so bad. I stick to my Shield Pro or my jail broken fire stick

 

Amazon gift cards are made of cardboard now. I almost ruined one by nearly ripping the claim code while opening it because I though it was plastic.

 

My bf is watching YouTube videos with his headphones in but I'm bored and want him to pay attention to me but I also don't have anything interesting to tell him.

 

The fact that xfinity cheapest Internet is fucking $80

 

yeah fuck xfinity

 

yep it was like $45 3 or 4 years ago

 

Annoyed by my cat fucking body slamming me for two hours straight on a regular basis until she gets fed. Her tiny feet fucking hurt on my stomach haha. She's almost 13 and finds new ways to annoy us daily, I just want her to chill the eff out

 

How long it takes my health insurance to process a claim. When I submit a claim to my dog's pet insurance, it's fully processed within a couple of days. For my health insurance, I'm lucky if there seems to be no telling when they'll get to it. I get that health insurance is complicated, but why does it take that much longer?

 

just flirt like you’re 12

 

that’s what I do. keeps it wholesome and cute

 

Because money is tight I may downgrade to the Netflix with ads because it’s cheaper. I want to unsubscribe but I’m waiting on a few shows to come out that are Netflix only
