Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 405

I also hear about this and can't imagine what it's like. Wild

 

That's a great description. Really fascinating stuff. Thanks for elaborating!

 

This is exactly how I feel. When I read, there's no mental image to go along with it. Which is why I never have any opinions on casting for adaptions ha as I never picture the characters when reading.

I also have experienced the exploding head syndrome. I have woken completely startled to crushingly loud noises that I'm the only that's heard. Doesn't happen often, but half a dozen times in my life.

 

I also have it , fairly minor just can't picture books in my mind and have no visual memory

 

See, I already don't read as much as I should but this would make me read even less

 

It's not horrible but it's not the best and I have an absolute terrible sense of direction and genuinely struggle when I come to an intersection to try picture in my mind whether where I need to go is right or left. I struggle with picturing things and working in 3D too though I've gotten better with practice at that.

 

I have a good sense of direction but not handy at all

 

I don't picture things in my head when I read books and don't picture what I think characters look like but I think I can visualize things in my head. I'm visual in the sense of visualizing words and am very particular about words and letters. When I think of names I think of how they look written/spelled out and I can only guess that people who choose to spell names ugly don't do that. OR maybe they do and it's just subjective.

Like with my name I don't rly mind when people spell it Kianna. But when they spell it Kiona I don't like it because I don't think the o is visually appealing there. Even if it's all pronounced the same. I also don't like to write capital E and pretty much never will and always write it lower case because I think it's ugly visually. I also don't like the lower case q. The most visually appealing letter is a z.

 

Y'all are some freaks for real. (lovingly)

Decorating a house is so fun until you go to buy a rug and they are all like $300+. I will never have a savings account lol Really hope my 30-year-old furnace lasts another 30 years bc that’s how long it will take me to save up for one at this rate!!!

when you're making a meal and nobody starts to sit down until after the food is cooked so by the time everyone is settled everything is cold

 

Some idiot stole my hat at the gym yesterday, and it's a) made me mad at myself for leaving it on the side, and b) intrigued to know if they checked the size of it first because I have a massive 7 3/4 hat size, and can't imagine the likelihood that the person who stole it also had a gigantic head.

I'll probably end up seeing it on Depop/ Facebook marketplace in a few days...

they refunded it because this is the first time this has ever happened but my late fees and interest for sending my credit card bill 4 days late were $60

 

people who book any form of meeting between 12:30 and 2pm. thats lunch

 

I would shift this to between noon and 1:30, but yeah, agreed

 

The grownass woman I sit next to at work that says she has to "tinkle" or "go potty".

 

Meetings should only be between 10-12 and 2-3.

 

Actually, people book meetings in general haha

 

Obligatory

 

I flat out decline anything between 11:30-2 pm.

11:30 start? Runs the risk of bleeding into 12.

12 start? Fuck off.

12:30 start? Fuck off.

1 pm start? Fuck off, I need to gently ease into the afternoon.

1:30 eh, I’m still not ready to pretend to pay attention yet so no.

2 pm. Fine, whatever.

 

When people put their hand luggage in the overhead compartment on planes, taking up all the space so I have to either put my full size carry on in the rows behind my seat (making getting off the plane a bitch) or having to check it. If it fits under the seat just put it there!

 

Its been said time and time again in here, but people who come to work sick, especially salaried with PTO. A coworker was talking about how terrible they feel, and all the cold meds he's taking and how he's so sick that he chugged a cup of coffee and couldn't taste it. I have my door closed but he's right outside my office coughing. I have a vacation in 10 days and I don't want to get sick. JUST STAY HOME. Or at least keep to yourself and try to go unnoticed. People who just complain and whine about how sick they feel are just oblivious, rude, or most likely, a combination of the both. Don't do something you shouldn't be doing and then talk about it like it's totally normal and acceptable. The conversation wasn't to me - if it was I would have directly said 'why are you here?'. Just keeping my head down and staying away as much as I can but we have limited bathrooms they keep going to, a small break room we share etc.
