Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 439

Had to stop at 3 different stores for 3 different things because apparently these are the only goddamn items that just can’t be sold all at the same store and the first store was out of item 1 and store 2 apparently doesn’t sell item 2 anymore so a lot of wasted time that cut into my getting drunk and watching basketball time tonight.

 

a stuffy nose

 

Wind

 

My favorite scent from Bath & Body Works is inconsistently available. Was going to stock up on body wash and spray, but now they only have it has a hand soap and candle. Ugh.

 

which one is it?

 

Coffee and Whiskey

They usually have it during the fall, so it’s been my go-to fall/winter scent, but in stores it usually disappears before the holidays. But this yeah it disappeared like, in August?

I love it, my wife loves it. Hell, I wore cologne with that scent on my wedding.

My stock is low. Guess I’ll have to do with a different scent this year (first world problem, I know…)

 

The big toe on my right foot has hurt for years and years, but my wife pointed out to me recently it’s an ingrown toenail. Just this year, it’s gotten a lot worse. I woke up this morning, and noticed the toe looks all fucked up and I can’t walk on it now cause it hurts so bad.
I have to walk on my heel of the right foot. I called my PCP to schedule an appointment to see if I can get it removed, but they keep returning my calls while I’m at work. I’m just going to go to urgent care today just to see if anything can be done now. I can’t stand this anymore (pun intended).

 

Fuck. Sorry to hear that. I had an ingrown toenail on both of my big toes at one point and that shit ain’t fun

 

Places that only accept one form of payment

 

Mobile pay is so convenient now I hate when places don't have it

 

Being back in the US after a week in Scotland

 

Update: It’s a skin infection and I was given antibiotics for it. I’m glad I went instead of scheduling the removal appointment.

 

things are often not as bad as we think and we let our minds fill in the rest, which is usually not good for most of us. glad you figured it out and I hope you’re on the mend soon

 

I have to go to people's homes for my job so I have a huge laundry list of annoying things about housing

1. Apartment complexes that are massive and have no rhyme or reason and I feel like Nicholas Cage in national treasure trying to find where I need to go

2. Houses with no visible address numbers

3. Apartment complexes with no visitor parking so I have nowhere to park especially if there's no street parking alternative

I'm sure I have more, but those are tops for me rn

 

I feel like this is every apartment complex I’ve ever been to haha

 

I got my regular Covid and flu boosters yesterday and I guess i forgot how shitty they make me feel afterwards. I woke up feeling absolutely awful. I hope I feel like my normal self for work in the morning.

 

Yeah, I got both at the same time and I felt flu-y for a full day and fatigued for nearly three days.

 

Yeah lol once in a while I'll find a very well organized one and want to cry from joy

My building confuses ppl because it's a secure building with a lobby and stuff but my apartment is like a separate wing with a different entrance so I have to put a thing in my Amazon delivery instructions and I pretty much never order Uber eats well partly because of the cost but also because it's not worth trying to call and explain to the delivery driver and at that rate I might as well just pick it up myself because I only order it to avoid human interaction

 

I feel like the lack of visible addresses is supposed to look cool but me being lost isn't cool

 

I picked up a pizza today in a giant shopping plaza and Apple Maps and google maps both had the location wrong. Drove around for like 10 minutes looking for the damn place.

 

I visit high schools for work and it’s so stressful when the address is incorrect or there are multiple entrances. Lots of schools in the city don’t have parking so the added wrinkle of trying to find street parking or a garage is always fun.

 

School pick ups are my least favorite thing at my job because most schools are not set up for that many cars and while many parents learn the drill at open house and then just thru doing it everyday, I am usually only going there once in a blue moon and picking up a kid I've never met and have no idea what they look like, and staff gets so impatient like I should just know how their school pick up line works and I'm like leave me aloooone

 

That everytime I make plans to cook a special meal that instacart refunds one of the most important ingredients I need. I planned at least three pasta dishes I was going to make and Instacart didn't get me garlic and ricotta, the two things every real Italian pasta recipe needs to make them stand out.

 

Seriously goddamn Instacart shoppers dude. I specifically pick replacements so I don't have to handhold the person though the order because I am busy and not looking at my phone. I see my Ricotta got refunded (again) and then I see the guy sent me a picture of multiple Ricottas including my replacement and then refunded when he didn't get reply. Just give me any ricotta I don't give a shit, that should be common sense.
