Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 430

I got a baggy-fit pair of Dickies shorts off Poshmark for cheap. I was stoked because they were cheap and they’re very in-style rn in my neck of the woods so I’ve been wanting a pair for a while. I try them on and…

…they fit.

But I look like a fuckin’ dork

 

When it comes to dating, people are really ever “good on paper”. No one is perfect, but some people make themselves out to be a different person than what they bring to the table

 

My phone doesn’t charge unless it’s very carefully laid down a certain way once the charging cable is connected. Annoying because there’s no rhyme or reason to it, sometimes I plug it in and nothing but repeating that 5-6 times finally gets it to start charging. I suppose that’s just how it goes when you have a phone that is 6 years old lol

 

Have you narrowed it down to the phone, or is it possible it's just the cable? Obviously the latter would be much better heh

 

that happened to me and the port you put the cable into got bent and it cost like $100 to fix, technology is fun

 

My previous phone did that and I had to buy a wireless charger. My phone cable for my car does that. It’s annoying bc when I need the gps I can’t touch my phone

 

Edit: I got them on stub hub.

 

this happened to me and it was just because there was lint in the charging port.

 

When I want to make a left-hand turn on a busy street and I have an opening but then another car materializes out of thin air from some random side street or something and kills my opening

 

I got an ad on Instagram recently for these very cool Ray-Ban sunglasses. Definitely something I’d like to own and wear. When I clicked the link, it just took me to a blank page. So I did a Google search for those specific sunglasses and it turns out, they were part of a limited run. Only 500 pairs were made and they’ve been sold out for over a year.

Now I keep getting ads for that specific pair and I’m irked because I’m basically getting an ad for something I’ll never be able to own lol

 

The grocery store near me turned all the self checkout lanes into 10 items or less and has someone standing there who will literally count your items to make sure you’re not over 10. Today they had 2 registers open and I had maybe 20 items. All self checkouts were available but they wouldn’t let me use them so I had to stand in line for 30 mins just to check out and the entire time I was there not a single person went through self checkout. What is the point???? I could have saved so much time just using self checkout!!

 

Flights being delayed by 4+ hours right after you get through security… followed by a cancellation once you order food at an airport restaurant.

 

That I grow really long hairs on my earlobes, and that I have to shave my ears every few weeks.

 

The sun visor in my car cannot extend. So 90% of the time I use it, the sun is still blasting in my eye

 

The amount of spiders by the entryway of my house/in the garage

 

My back has been in so much pain for the past two or three days that I have to move like I’m 200 years old. Big annoying, not tiny annoying, but I needed to vent somewhere.

 

My cat dug her nail into like the very top corner/crease of my dominant thumb deep and it fucking hurts so I put some neosporin and a bandaid on it which is wildly inconvenient, I know I use my thumb for a lot of things but you don't really think about it until it's slightly incapacitated.

 

Also I splurged on a Lego set I've always wanted that was on sale after a particularly bad mental health day this weekend but knowing we have a new income and are restructuring our budget, I haven't open the box because I keep wondering if I should return it. Every time I look at it, I just feel guilty.

 

Ugh the worst. I have lumbar scoliosis and working at a desk 8 hours a day has me constantly stiff or in pain.

Accidentally fell asleep on my very stiff couch last night and my lower back is killing me today

 

not the point of your post but I gotta ask what set lol

 

LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone. It came out to about $60 with the discount

 

great choice

 

Tell my wife that lol

 

Ohhhhh it could have been so much worse! You could have bought a $100, $200, $300 or $400+ dollar set! $60? Nothing compared to what some of them costs!


(I know this isn’t a good statement but this is what I use when I regret a purchase to make myself feel better and yes the dollar value will always be finding something more expensive than what I bought even if it isn’t even in the same category of product so don’t follow this thought process lol)

 

I left a brand new carton of eggs out on the counter for an entire day bc I set them off to the side and forgot they were there. So if I just stop posting I died from eating the eggs bc I'm cheap and hate waste so I'm def gonna eat them still. I do shit like this all the time and I hate it. I'm so forgetful and if I don't do something right when I'm thinking about it, I will get distracted and it won't get done. Why am I like this??
