Things That Piss You Off

Dude, I had either that checklist or one very similar when I diagnosed in 2019 by a geneticist. No one in my family has EDS symptoms, though, which annoys me since I have no one to blame :rofl:

If this is what 22 looks like, I sure as hell don’t want to be around when I’m 70…

:frowning_face:

Being married definitely helps for me. But beyond that, I’m mostly content just being able to do something rather than nothing.

Learning about terrible events throughout American History can really get under my skin sometimes. I’m glad I learned something new though.

There’s dog shit on the 7th floor of my apartment building….again.

Honestly, some people really just need to be punched in the face.

This is the third time I’ve seen dog shit on the 7th floor, and now those cleaning ladies have to get it up.

Some people are just lazy scumbags.

My first job after high school was on the lawn/maintenance crew for a nice apartment complex.

Among the many strange and disturbing things that happened there was a woman who would change her baby’s diaper out on the balcony, then just toss it down into the lawn, where we- the lawn crew, would have to pick it up.

So one day my buddy goes ā€œfuck thisā€¦ā€ opens one of them up and chucks it perfectly on to the sliding glass door, leaving a big skid mark right on the glass.

This generated a complaint. In talking to the superintendent she admitted to tossing the diapers. Once that was divulged, the super said ā€œWhy dont you quit throwing the diapers in the yard, then nobody will be able to throw them back?ā€.

Problem solved!

I’d suggest kidnapping the dog. Just wait for the owner to let it out to shit in the hallway and lure it away.

Then, once they make a big fuss about it being missing/kidnapped, you go ā€œOh, this dog? I just took him outside because I was tired of you letting him/her out to shit in the hall.ā€.

When I worked at Walmart I started in maintenance.

We had a woman shitting in the middle of the floor in back bathrooms 3-4 times a week.

It took them about 14 months to catch her.

The Phantom! :rofl:

There was one who would take a dump in the washing machines.

Made a real mess out of some unsuspecting loads of laundry.

With 100 people you have a good chance of a little bit of everything.

With 1000, you virtually guarantee it.

The phantom shitter, the exhibitionist, the peeper, the drunk driver, you name it, they lived there.

I am adjacent to actual economists and a good number of them refer to macro as ā€œcreative storytelling with mathsā€

what is an actual economist? I thought they were all fake economists.

economist as in professors or PhD students

One thing I have come to understand about math is that if you know enough of it you can make it say anything you want.

Lower back pain. I didn’t even do anything to injure it and it’s killing me.

There’s a grad student here who’s a gossip. I was talking to her in confidence about my struggles with my advisor. She told my advisor :sob:

I asked my other phd friend and apparently this student had done the same to her

The last two times I’ve thrown out my back were because:

  1. I took an Ambien, had a really good night’s sleep, but didn’t roll over all night.
  2. I was brushing my tongue and gagged while I was bent over the sink.

Both times put me out of commission for about a week.

There’s always one. I’m generally guilty of keeping things too close to my chest but I think that, even if you don’t go to my lengths, holding off and getting close to a few people before telling them potentially damning material is a good idea, as a rule.

I have thrown it out before loading the dishwasher but this feels a bit different. Not like it’s ā€œthrown outā€ with a slipped disc. Hard to describe.

Only thing I changed was add in a few minutes of jump rope (on my workout padded flooring).

It’s hard to walk to this morning. I must be getting old now and my body can’t cope. Going to add in mobility/yoga work into my exercise routines.

Edit: Getting better as I walk around and move today (but I also took two aleve this morning). Yoga and stretching for the next few days is the Rx.
