    Lol yeah I didn't get any of those ones. but rest assured no other brands had any other flavor besides different mint ones either!!

    I don't usually go to Safeway/vons for things like mouthwash and floss but I had just sat in a 25 minute line for Dutch Bros and didn't have the bandwidth to go to a farther and probably more crowded cheaper store. But I clipped my lil online coupons and had a coupon for 10% off after getting my covid booster and flu vaccine there recently so I actually didn't pay too much!

    Also shout-out to the lady at Joanne fabrics who told me to search for coupons on my phone before I paid and saved me like $5!

    That was my go-to mouthwash for a bit, but I had to stop because of how expensive it became

    I just go with ACT typically. My dentist recommended it, there's no alcohol in it, and it's pretty cheap

    Yeah I started using that too for the same reason. It’s been treating me pretty well!

    When customer service lines give their AI a human name. Like, I’m trying to reschedule a doctor’s appointment, why the fuck is a bot introducing itself as Alex?

    Ohh it looks like it may be at one of the wal marts not too far from me. I have weird wal marts by me where they're like mini and don't have a big selection of items, but it looks like the bigger one a little further away has one. Will def check it out next time I'm near that one

    Someone needs to tell my mom that she has the ability to scroll through past text messages or use the search function to find things. She is forever asking me to repeat things we've already text about, often just recently. She's not old. She has had a cell phone for yeeeears. Get it together, woman

    October in SoCal

    As much as I love fall, October is an annoying month.

    Super cold in the morning, hot in the afternoon, then cold again in the evening.

    And it’s gonna be triple digit weather this week. Ugh

    Stop lights that aren’t activated by traffic.

    There is a brand new 4-way stop light by my apartment that is the fucking worst. It sits on red for like 45-60 seconds even when no one is going through it and it changes to red for no reason at all. There will be absolutely no one that wants to go through the intersection but will change to red, sit there for 60 seconds as red, literally no one will go through the intersection, and then turn green for the Main Street again. Why does it go to red????? It’s brand new so unless it’s using old shit technology or no technology at all (very possible) I thought all new lights were set up with sensors or based on weight to tell when to change. I’m super close to going “bored angry old man” about it and trying to figure out an email to send to ask about this bullshit lol

    Alexa is almost always wrong about the weather. Like it's raining right now and it just told me that is sunny with clear skies.

    This is my second annoyance regarding non-dairy ice cream:

    How pricier it is compared to regular ice cream

    Saw a pint of it at Whole Foods for $9. Like a Ben & Jerry’s-size container for $9!

    Why do I have to pay so much more in order to keep my stomach from exploding

    Annoying thing about me, but I always make conversations about myself. I've been trying to be more mindful not to but I do it every time. I think it's like my social anxiety feels like if I'm talking about myself I can sort of feel more in control of the conversation? I like to think it's not just arrogance but it prob comes off that way!

    This is something that I do that has recently been brought to my attention. I think it’s absolutely a social anxiety thing for me and I feel like I do it to try to relate to people. People have said it’s like I’m trying to one-up or always have a response but I think it’s my way of trying to relate or contribute. I don’t know why asking people questions feels so unnatural to me.

  23. I haven't been accused of one-upping, but I'll often find myself relaying a story to someone in an effort to relate to something they're going through only to realize halfway through that our situations are completely different

    I went to big lots cause everything is 40-50% off but not everything was clearance eligible apparently and if I would've known that I wouldn't have bought those things but I was also too timid to say anything at the register so oop at me
