I've mentioned the oft-barefooted, staple-hoarding man before, but I just remembered another Tiny Thing That Annoys Me because I'm watching him do it now: He goes through the fridge and looks at everyone's stuff, and if you happen to be near him, he'll pick something up and go, "see these pickles?" or whatever he happens to be investigating at that moment.
my Amazon order still hasn’t shipped and yet it’s said shipping now for two days now. just keep it in the preparing to ship stage on there if it’s not quite ready yet, shit is wild
My toilet stopped flushing and water (not poop water but dirt/rust water) is backing up into my bathtub. Last time this happened in my apartment a couple of years ago there was a major clog in the sewage line they had to tear up our parking lot to fix, and it was a nightmare. Hoping it's not that.
Worst was when for weeks there was a loud running water sound in my walls for like a month. My plumbing was working fine so I figured it wasn't me from me so I ignored it. It wasn't until the neighbor behind me told the landlord it was me and had the landlord yelling at me that they sent the plumber out to my unit. It took two plumbers the same day to figure out it had nothing to do with me. My nextdoor neighbor was living with a completely broken toilet for months and never told anybody. Also I think that is when they found out he was subleasing the apartment to the his nephew on the DL and they got evicted for it.
At least this time I have a landlord that is ok with me texting him and responds right away. Last company made me put in maintenance requests into their site and it took forever. I got so used to living without a working toilet for days to weeks on end that I unfortunately immediately know what to do to rough it out. I just went to the store and got an extra large water bottle and a thing of smaller garbage bags incase it doesn't get fixed today.
At least my unit is super close to our complex's dumpster in incase I gotta do the old poop and toss again lol
Haha dear God, I have to drive to my trash compactor. I would not be happy having to take that in my car lol
I guess this isn’t something that necessarily annoys me, but I guess kind of perplexes me: When someone mentions my “Californian accent” I was on the phone with someone yesterday at work and they asked where my company was based out of. I said we’re based in Orange County and they immediately asked if I was always from California. I told them “yep, born and raised.” To which they responded “I figured, I could tell from your accent.” …I don’t have an accent? Do Californians have an accent that I’m not aware of?
Plumber: hey you're good. Have a good one! Me: well do you know what the problem was? Plumber: yeah but I gotta talk to the landlord about it That was weird. Maintenance/repair guys usually always tell me what is happening
People with regional accents usually don't realize they have regional accents. What you gotta do is look up " your area + cop bodycam footage ". Cops always have the strongest regional accents and you can tell.
I feel like NH generally doesn't have an accent, other than people that have migrated up here from Mass which is common. But hey I could be crazy haha. My parents definitely have accents from living in Mass, but they're from 45 mins away from Boston so it's not that crazy thick Boston accent people are used to hearing. My fiance has one too because she lived near Boston when she was a kid before moving up here around middle school. Definitely have aunts and uncles with that exaggerated Boston accent you see in the media.
There is a Coastal Florida accent (north and interior Fl just sound southern) but I feel like it mostly gets confused as white people doing black appropriation, but I have seen racist ass FL cops talk like that so it definitely isn't lol Like half the girls I went to high school with sounded like Bhad Bhabie
I've been told I have an accent but I low-key feel like it's because I don't talk right. I stress syllables in weird places and don't know until I'm told. It's like a speech impediment more than an accent lol. I like half raised my little sister and she gets told she has an accent too sometimes
