I thought you were gonna say they kept the first set of miles and needed new miles to make the update.

Neighbors again.

Our cool neighbor had 20 cu yards of mulch delivered last Monday as she's doing a full yard remodel and ripping out all of her grass. She has a narrow single car driveway so the guy dumped the mulch in a long pile along the edge of her yard. It encroached on the road but not enough to be an issue. It's a small neighborhood, 20 mph speed limit, she's on a corner so you see the pile well before you turn down the street. You could still drive 2 cars but it was a tight squeeze which is why I imagine some other megatwat shitpile dickchole cockmunch of a passive aggressive Karen called the city on her first thing Tuesday AM. Instead of, you know, walking over and talking to her about it. Homegirl is working full time and had lined a bunch of friends to help this weekend. Not fast enough apparently, Karen probably needed room to drive her landboat without any obstructions so he/she called it in.

The city inspector rolls up, neighbor's at work, so he comes knocking on my door to ask about the pile. I tell him it's not mine or I'd be mad it had been dumped in front of the wrong house, but I can give him the contact info of neighbor's if he wants it. He huffs and puffs, lectures me about how much of an inconvenience it is to everyone. I tell him it absolutely doesn't bother me at least, and that there's plan to take care of it as soon as realistically feasible without neighbor having to quit her job. Just in case I ask if he can tell me who the douchebag Karen is, and he tells me it's confidential. I ask if he ever got a complaint about the FUCKING BOAT that was parked down the street the entire winter (not a small boat mind you, some monstrosity that actually blocked more than half the road and you couldn't see around), or the houses down the street that insist on parking up to 6 cars on the streets to keep their driveway clear, but apparently that's completely fine. I suggest he go take a look anyway but he apparently has better things to do with his time, I imagine measuring the height of some weeds in a yard or harassing children for drawing on the sidewalk with chalk.

He ended up calling the neighbor and berating her, threatening to fine her, and demanding that the pile be removed within 48 hours. She comes home in a panic and off to work we went, Ms Boissal and I, her ex, another neighbor across the street, anyone with a wheelbarrow and a bit of goodwill. Took the better part of my work-from-home Thursday to relocate the mulch. The inspector drove by again around 4pm (surprised he was still at work), slowed down, and got really nasty looks from 5 people armed with shovels. He wisely kept going. Fucking people...

Chase Travel Rewards.

I had a fuck ton of points and put them towards Europe flights for Mrs. PDX and me. The airline made a minor schedule change (outbound flight leaves 20 minutes later) and unbeknownst to anyone, that requires our tickets to be re-issued. No one told me and I never would have found out except I was unable to specify seats on the airline website, so called Chase's customer service in the Philippines to ask WTF. 43 minutes later, they told me that my tickets needed to be re-issued, which they then did.

Just holy fucking shit. How did neither the airline nor Chase know that the tickets needed to be re-issued? And why the fuck do I have to have a phone call with an agent rather than text chat like civilized fucking human beings? And why does the phone call take 43 minutes?

Losing??

Dodged a nukular bullet on that one, they did.

Latest annoyance- all these ads that have sprung up in the last few months for "full body deodorant"- Axe body spray for adults I guess. Enough with the talk about "butt crack" and "underboob" stank!

(and yes I realize username checks out)

That's because Gen Z is too stupid to know that one wipes their ass after shitting and washes there ass while showering.

[Supermoon]

Didn’t you know it’s gay to wash your butt?

those ads aren't targeted at us bro. if they were, they'd be on tik tok and instagram, not tv. thats all you, boomer.

I have only seen those ads on instagram, TV is all prescription drugs.

To add: both are targeted at your fucking retarded generation

Fucking people...

Prolly all friends of friends bizness.
Remember that political cow who set the police to raid some wee old lady's house? 'Cos she was co-owner of some local newspaper that was critical.
Lady passed away from it all.

Same shit happened to me. Changed the flight by a few minutes as well probably a month before. I didn't get any sort of notification I needed to do anything I just put the new time down and forgot about it. I show up at the airport for my flight to Chamonix for a ski trip and found out I had no flight. I'm standing at the ticket counter and the agent is now booking me a flight at that moment. Ended up in Berlin instead of Milan where my buddies and rental car were waiting. I still don't understand how a time change cancels a ticket and no notice given.

[yeahman]

^^That is totally fucked.

Oh, the full body and crotch stank deodorant ads are all over TV. Might be Google slipping that shit in through YouTV..

Oh. The irony of a boomer attacking the young gen as retarded.
Can we say retarded anymore? Probably not.

Which is so fucking retarded.

Nah, just a Gen X painting with broad strokes.

Was that booked through Chase Travel too? That's fucked! I can't complain then, I should be thankful for my good luck.

I didn't mention this in my first post, but after I couldn't pick seats on the website, I called the airline for help and they noted the flight had changed (which I already knew), DIDN'T say the tickets weren't valid, and said that since Chase Travel is the travel agent in this transaction, I need to do seat selection through them. So even the airline customer service apparently didn't know wtf was going on.

Chase lets you book travel direct through them or roll the points over to a mileage program, don't think I'll ever book direct through them again, at least, not flights.

"No Lowballs, I know what I got."

Oof. That's pretty bad. And don't get me started on used farm equipment. So many jerks out there trying to get top dollar for equipment like that POS tiller there. After searching for a skid steer for YEARS, we ended up giving up and getting a new Kobota. Used would've saved MAYBE 10 and they are always used HARD and straight up abused. Don't get me wrong. That's what they're there for, but you can go screw yourself if you want me to pay like 90% of new for the "privilege." Same with tractors. Ended up with a new John Deere for the same reason. Sucks because we used to be able to score this stuff fairly cheap. I blame the internet. Haha.

You're right, I really have to count this as a win

Facebook. In general.

Specifically my account was locked back in February due to "suspicious login activity." To unlock the account I needed to send in a photo of my ID. Seemed simple enough despite not really wanting to send them a photo of a government ID. In any event, I tried sending in photos of my drivers license several times and it got rejected every single time. No idea why. I really didn't want to send them a photo of my passport but I finally caved and did it. That seemed to work. I got an email saying I could get back in that included a code I could use for my password. Go to Facebook and it says the code is not my password. WTF? I then tried resetting my password and now it's back to "your account has been locked." I've gone through that cycle twice now with the exact same results. The code they sent me doesn't allow me back in. It is beyond frustrating. I've tried it on my PC and also my phone.

I don't understand how a platform with a billion users or whatever can be this difficult to deal with. Now I see why so many people just create a new account.
