Things That Piss You Off

I have no idea what that is nor do I know what the topic was originally about but I came in to talk about stuff and it escalated

Short version- I was partying at a friend’s house before shipping off to the Navy. Friends brother replaced whiskey with drano and put it back into the bar. I took a big swig of it.

Immediate destruction of my esophagus and upper respiratory tract.

I suppose it shouldn’t surprise me that you think it’s appropriate to joke about a complete strangers wife.

What. The. Hell.

Why would you do that? Was he trying to hurt someone? I mean Jesus Christ that could well of been manslaughter

Damn, that might be the biggest dick move of all time.

I can’t imagine that was an easy road to recovery.

More of an annoyance, but hearing every single person’s opinion on how I should lay out the gym, what equipment I should buy, and classes/community events that I should offer.

Also, muddy shoes in the gym, I’ve got the ‘non-re-rackers’ pretty much whipped, along with the dumbbell droppers, but those muddy shoes
man!

Everyone’s an expert when they don’t have to make the decisions

Trying to buy a house in a small, inflated market. Did you do a mediocre job of finishing your basement? Great! Add $100k to the price! Are the walls painted? How luxurious, let’s start at $150/sq ft. Seems like everyone thinks every dollar they’ve spent on home ownership gets tacked onto whatever price they originally purchased at.

Also, when you snag a nice end spot and captain crossover has to try to share it with you.WTF

Still think that is the worst injury recounted on T-nation.

The miracle of youth and vigor. About 2 wk. drug induced coma, a week of observation, and as soon as I could swallow soft food they cut me loose. 6 mos. of follow ups, but I was back up to full steam in a couple of months.

I dunno. All of the others I’ve heard of sound worse to me. It definitely entirely recalibrates ones pain threshold though. I’ve gotten pretty torn up and burned welding and torch cutting since and was just kinda “meh.”.

Bastards that don’t clean their welds piss me off. You end up cutting through parts you can’t see the other side of, and the molten steel blows off of the slag and right back at you like a fountain of “Shit!”.

My grandma calls me up and tells me she has $100 gift card for wine and asks if I want some.

I say sure

Grandma says you have to spend $160 to get the $100 off.

I say ok.

She tells me to go online and look at what’s available.

I do and tell her what I think.

She asks if I’ll split it with her.

I say fine (although annoyed at this point)

She then tells she will send a check when she gets her wine.

I go online and spend $160 on wine, I’ll get $40 (maybe) from my grandma and a $100 gift card in the mail.

Fuck me.

There are a lot of positives to working for a bigger company, but one big downside is all the mandatory bullshit training.

I work for a tiny company, but we’re a partner to one of the biggest companies in the world. The training videos are comically useless.

Life. Sucks to suck.

Potty training. We’re on our second child and both of them figured out going #1 very easily. Both of them also seem to be oblivious to #2.

Cleaning crap out of underwear drives me mad!

Well
 the youngest is home for the summer for college .
Wouldn’t you fucking know it
when he pisses mom ma off I hear the term “your son”
It has been a whole two days!!! FUCK! its going to be a loooong summer!

I can always tell how well behaved mine are by whether they are “yours” or “ours”. Occasionally, they’re “mine”.

Yeah it’s funny how that works. Must be some unwritten rule only know by moms.
