Back to the treating service workers bad thing.  Jerks that make the flight attendant move the cart back ten rows just to use the restroom. Usually an announcement is made.  And I’ve seen guys try to use the head despite the flight attendant saying to wait.  I know what’s the harm right. But it’s annoying

    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

Was at a kids hui jitsu tournament and this little guy is cheering his kid on.   Cool right?  Sure. Until he starts trashing the opponent. “He’s got nothing!  He’s already quit!” Followed up by “nobody here can touch you!”

kids are like 6 or 7 I think

Weird that you and @Superhero were at the same tournament. 

Meh. I wouldn't worry too much until he starts dropping "get a body bag!"

Sorry for being proud of my kid. LOL.

 

How was the tournament btw? Was this in Long Beach? We were thinking about going, but I got lazy.

between daylight savings time and flash power outages and unplugging things in and out, none of the appliances in my kitchen ever show the same time and it is intensely annoying

For some folks, once they get to security, it's like they threw their brains in the trash with that open pepsi.

My Fitbit, personal cell phone and work laptop are never in sync exactly. All of these program the time itself, never have to touch even for going forward and back an hour.

I stand at 5'11".  In my Barbie shoes. About 5'8" without.

A skosh below the national average, but I don't consider myself a little man.

I like having different time zones in my own house... Of course, I've set all of them at a minimum of 5 minutes faster than the actual time, but the rest of my family are never ready to leave on time

Well, we have two characters figured out, Mr. Miyagi, and John Kreese (sweep the leg!). Any sightings of Ali? Pics?

In this case though, it was miyagi screaming “Daniel San, Lawrence already quit.  He got nothing. Nobody touch yiu”

Karate Kid came out when I was in HS.  Elizabeth Shue was a formative part of my adolescence.  

This is not at all a hot take, as a lot of others have made this observation before me, but Daniel was a dick and Johnny did not deserve what happened.  Daniel threw the first punch in the first fight, was a petulant little baby in pulling his pranks, and stole Johnny's girl.  Miyagi enabled a narcissist.  The only real antagonist in KK was Creese.

regular socket isn't deep enough to clear the surrounding obstacles and deep socket is too tall to fit under the obstacle above.

hope the ratcheting wrench can get on this fucking thing.

the "pop up" style of drain stopper that seems to be prevalent these days where you have to stick your hand into the dirty sink water in order to release the stopper. this is not an improvement. 

It's okay to acknowledge someone who let's you in on a Mopac entrance in wall-to-wall traffic when no one else will.

A simple fucking wave is not too much to ask.

That's not the worst. I was flying home from San Francisco, and some douchenozzle put his fedora up there while 1/2 the plane was still boarding. I took it out and shamed the guy into taking back. He was pissed, but fuck him.

Of course they are because every major tech company and government has them infected with viruses

If you ACTUALLY have a pair of those, burn 'em.  They probably have mutations for the next 3 undiscovered STIs / STDs.

Wait, she wears underwear with you guys?

an absolutely fucktarded move in the new Outlook is you cannot continuously scroll through the calendar view in the monthly mode, and you cannot advance any mode using the mouse scroll wheel.  You have to click the ^ and v icons to jump from week to week or month to month.

The updated Outlook is horrible. I'm holding onto the old slightly less shitty version for as long as possible.

Not so trivial: plumbing repairs under our house slab to fix sewer drain pipe. Very expensive to excavate 20’ through a limestone rock shelf to get at the problem - collapsed sewer drain plus tree root invasion.

After two days of jackhammering excavation plus one hour this morning under our house, it is dead quiet all of a sudden and that crew is packing up.
Hopefully the plumbing crew will come sooner rather than later to do the drainpipe repairs and install the new commode to get that guest bath in working order.
As for the massive pile of dirt & rock in our back yard, that will not be backfilled into the excavation hole until the building inspection is done. The photo was made about halfway through the digging/drilling process.
In the meantime, the local wildlife better not crawl under there.

They covered the plumbers in the hole? Now we know what happens to tradesmen when they present AB with an exorbitant bill. 

People who say they're doing "XYZ" for cancer awareness.

a.  What's that going to accomplish?  We all go "aww"?  

b.  Pretty sure we're all aware of cancer.  We're all likely gonna get some form of it before we go.  Sorry, but as my wife likes to say "you're not special."

I'll get back to focusing on prepping for the game.

Whoever decided that kitchens should be in people's living rooms needs to be dragged out into the street and beaten with sticks

This is incorrect

1. Steal underpants,
2. ….
3. Profit!

Older Asian women who praise kids in front of their friends, siblings and peers, without acknowledging the other kids who are present.

My boy is good looking with cute dimples. He’s gotten a lot of compliments from our friends, and especially from older Asian women who don’t have filters on their mouths. Cool, say he’s handsome, but don’t say it in front of his sister, and then say nothing to her.

Yeah, unfortunately she looks more like me so she’s never gotten any compliments or her looks. But she’s MY daughter and I think she’s pretty with a great smile. I just feel bad for her when her brother gets all the attention.

 

Went to eat at one of my favorite Dallas restaurants and the guy at the front asked me "can I help you?" in the most abrasive tone possible. I told him "table for 2" and he responded "2 what?". "2 people....for here". "We don't have a server with a name that sounds like that". Someone had to shake him out of the trance he was in so he could realize I was asking for a table for 2 so we could eat at the fucking restaurant. He walks us to the table and continued on saying "ohhhh I thought you were looking for a table with a specific server". I just stared at him. No reaction. This is the same guy who mocked me last Christmas for spelling my wife's name after he kept asking me over and over what I said. "Yeah buddy I can spell". Well obviously not if you're having to ask me over and over again.

The concept is awesome but the execution is terrible. That was our setup growing up and my mom would always do dishes during movies or TV shows. This was before DVRs so you couldn't just pause and wait for mom to stop banging plates together. The list of shows where I missed most of the episodes because she's slamming dishes is endless.

Unless being an obtuse shithead is part of the restaurant's appeal, how on earth is this still one of your favorite restaurants? 

I almost wonder if they know you and are specifically trying to discourage you from returning for some reason.
