What's your pet peeve in RL?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Oh my. I'm not usually opposed to TMI, but this one is just ... ugh.

Two women at work discussing their periods and how they're having theirs on the same cycle. That's a given, but dude. I don't need to hear about it.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Thats not TMI. TMI would've been if they pulled out their absorbtion method of choice and compared the level of their flows.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

It's not something I consider work-appropriate, personally, especially the length of their flows. I don't need to know how many days you regularly bleed. And this is coming from someone who has the same plumbing. I don't like to think about my own, let alone someone else's.

I really, really REALLY wish that paying Sprint all the money I do per month would get me half decent service in my own fucking apartment. I am sick to death of the failed text messages and dropped calls. I shouldn't have to take all of my conversations outside. This isn't 1995.

I think I blew out my hand playing Street Fighter. The tip of my right index finger hurts when I put pressure on it now, so I can't play anymore.

Coming home from an overnight trip - exhausted - and realizing that I have to go out for toilet paper.

Fuck.

Garbage truck came at least two hours earlier than I've ever seen them come this morning. Usually the trash sits around for half the day before anyone comes and gets it, so imagine my surprise when I've barely gotten the kids out of bed and I hear that giant truck roll by our house. Dammit. I missed trash day on Friday, which was totally my fault, but now I've got a week's worth of garbage stinking up my porch and attracting vermin.

Asks, if you think that's bad, Feba has known a girl for all of a week. Goes to study with her and a Japanese friend; runs in to her outside the bathroom (the men's and women's share a sink), she informs me she's on her period.


I mean how the fuck do you even reply to that?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Haha what the fuck!

I had to walk through a huge puddle in the parking lot at work today and my shoes are still damp. I didn't know I needed hip waders for rainy days.

I few responses come to mind:

"I wasn't planning on having sex with you, anyway."

"I'll put some towels down."

"I'll make a note of it."

"Is this your first time?"

"I hear ya!" or "Me too!"

"I already know!" or "I can tell!"

Really wish that Obama and friends would have thought of a better name than the "Affordable Care Act," because affordable is just laughable. As low as $100 a month? I know a lot of people who can't afford that ... people who don't qualify for welfare because they make too much. I'm one of them - though I have VA health (thank god).

And I could continue with the whole Obamacare thing in general, but let me just focus on my peeve being the name. "Affordable" is not just misleading, it's downright wrong.

Further proof that the government knows absolutely nothing about its citizens.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

$100 per month would be pretty goddamn fantastic. Do you know how much that shit can and does end up costing? It's insane. The complaints should be more along the lines of: "Why isn't there a free healthcare option yet? What are we, some third world nation?"

[Aksannyi]

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

I agree that $100 is better than current options but it's still not what many would consider affordable. I don't live in an affluent part of the country. A lot of the people I talk to every day say that they have no idea where that $100 is going to come out of their budget.

You know, because you're forced to get healthcare now. Which I also strongly disagree with. I agree that Americans should have healthcare (or at least have access to it) but if they don't want to have it, that should be their decision, not the government's.

It doesn't take effect until Jan. 1st, and I've read theres a big push to push it back further, of course there's a big push to get rid of all of it and try again, but what else is new.
