    The day I retired I set an auto reply that said something like "As of EOB today I will be retired.  If you expect me to reply to an email after 10:00 am today, you will be disappointed."  At the 3:00

    I hate the people that ignore it when they have the right of way and try to wave me through first, it just fucks up the system and delays everyone

when my phone gets one notification so then checks for any others it missed and spends 20 seconds dinging and vibrating as all of them come in

when every fucking ap offers to send me notifications.

Really?  I turn all that shit off.  When I need to know, I know where to fucking look, motherfuckers.

When I’m on vacation and the Ring camera in the living room detections motion. I hear noises, possibly from a neighbor (but who can be sure?), and there’s nothing I can do about it. 

Our subscription only covered the front door. As of 15 minutes ago I upgraded the plan to over all the cameras, and also buying a shit ton of extra cameras.

I love Christmas but I find that I can't get into the Christmas spirit because it's too fucking warm. It's going to be 80 degrees on friday, WTF. And because it's allegedly winter time, my office has the heat turned on and it's been at least 75 in there every day. Even the old bitches that use space heaters every day are commenting that "Gee, it's warm in here". Fucking hell.

At Specs in Arbor Walk, there are a couple of parking spots reserved for “super heroes” aka veterans.

Putting any group of people on a pedestal bugs the fuck out of me. Leave the close spots for the handicapped.

FWIW, I don't park in those spots either.  In my mind, those are for folks who are missing limbs or got fucked up.  I can walk fine.  Those spots aren't meant for me.

2 things were plumber-y

I'm decent with every tool I own from a screw driver to a welder. But plumbing kills me. Press-fit plastic hung upside down is gonna leak. Fuck you whoever designed it.

I’ve fucked up the flange twice trying to replace the wax ring for our toilets, plumbers called each time for repair.

You pull your phone out of your purse to make those calls?

Nah man, he's right. Plumbing is Dark Arts. 

Plumbing is easy, only gotta know 4 things:  Hot on the left/Cold on the right, Shit flows downhill, payday is Friday and don't bite your fingernails.

I might fuck with plumbing, worst that can happen is I fuck it up and cost myself money, but I will not fuck with electricity. I'm calling a pro for everything more complicated than "plug this into the outlet."

Same here.  I can do basic shit like a ceiling fan or a garbage disposal, but when you start getting into a real shit that will burn the house down, I’m not touching it.

How the fuck did you manage that?  I've replaced several toilets and can't even imagine how that is possible.

220, 221, whatever it takes.

I got more into woodworking and some light carpentry when Covid-19 started.  Did some projects with my oldest that was fun.  Gonna be put to the test later this week when I attempt to replace two eaves on our home that lost their flashing in a storm and got water-logged.  I'm decent at mechanical stuff, not great---need to get better.  Thanks to my FIL training me, I'm good at electrical.  Even dropped a 220 into our garage awhile back.  Replaced a lot of wiring over the years.  

But fuck me, I still suck at plumbing.  After installing new toilets and sinks ourselves, I'm still a fuckup at it.  I have to admit, when something goes sideways in our house with regard to plumbing, I call my wife.  That I somehow kept all our pipes from freezing during February is still a blur to me.  But we did it.  But if a toilet was running right now, and I think that one is, I'd just jiggle the handle and then plead with her to make it stop.

By over tightening the screws on toilet base.  Wobbly? Tighten those mothers up.

I think the main issue with plumbing is that things behave very differently when the water is off vs. when the water is on. Electrical work is more dangerous but you kind of either fuck it up or you don't.

This. And if you fuck up electricity, it doesn't work. Go back, try again. If plumbing fucks up, you flood your house or shit goes everywhere.

My mom's father was an electrician. He was also completely colorblind, as in he couldn't see anything but gray. He passed his shitty eye condition down to me, I think it's the only thing he ever gave me. Thanks, gramps.

What Facebook group are you on that you want to "Cross-Pollinate" with photographs of me replacing some eaves?  A man's eaves are his business, dammit! 

I'm middle aged and afraid of heights and you want me to take a go-pro up to the roof to document this project for your own twisted sense of holiday jolly? 

Okay, I'll do it but you're gonna have to trade me some bourbon or something.  One of 'em I can get to from an extension ladder.  Sadly, the other one...I gotta work on from my prone position on the upstairs.  You heathen.
