Shit that annoys you

[The AD]

Peopel who leave online meetings for "bio break," or other washroom reasons.

And really I think people at the workplace can understand "I'll be back in a minute, I have to pee." The term "bio break" is so dumb. It's really something we don't need a euphemism for.

Replace an outlet and a keyless fixture? That's DIY.

Yup, but the house is rented to my cousin now (doesn't seem to be into DIY) and I'm not in town

I'll be back. I have to take a dump. Or maybe I gotta take a leak, you guys carry on until I get back. I have Teams calls from time to time with drill crews and it is refreshing for its candor. No button down behavior or office etiquette will be tolerated. These guys know better but they know it's my Teams call and every body says what they want and how they want to say it. It's all for a good laugh especially when the button downs are there. After all, these crews make the money and the suits understand that.

Wendys new "saucy nugs" commercial. They are freaking chicken nuggets, not nugs, Wendys is just trying to be trendy and hip but that is not who Wendys is. Go back to selling frostys Wendys !

Wendy’s has nugs.
Ground up processed leftovers.
They’re not nuggets. Not whole breast meat nuggets.

This is all nuggets. Whole breast meat things are strips.

Wendy’s nugs >> McDonald’s nuggets

Blazing sun, but I work on my motorcycle and wash it, mow the (tiny) lawn, sort laundry, then plop my ass on the couch for a well-deserved (imo) rest, and turn on the tube to watch some Olympics…and find out I just missed the beach volleyball match. Dammit!

yep, people.........today, specifically Texans.

Hiked to an alpine lake to take the family and dog for a swim. Get there and it's empty, by the time I jump in 25 Texans show up with 4 more dogs, no big deal, plenty of lake for everyone. The group sees my spot across the lake and B-lines for it, apparently the 400ft of sand in front of them wasn't good enough so the 10ft spit of land I'm on was where it was at. They arrive, throw their packs in a pile with my family's shit and proceed to spread blankets and set up a picnic. One of their dogs never stops barking at us and nobody seems to care. My dog, being the friendly guy he is greets all humans and dogs. Then a lady snaps at me because my wet dog walked across her picnic blanket. Apparently her 4 dogs are allowed to do it but my feral Malamute violated her space. I made it 10 minutes and said fuck this. Actually had to pick up their backpacks to find my families stuff and none of them cared. Then as we are about to leave they ask me if I can take their picture. Everything in my being had to come together to not throw their fucking phone in the lake.

We start our hike out arrive at the other side of the lake and one of those little fucking taco bell dogs runs straight for us along with some other tiny little purse dog, both baring their teeth in full attack mode. The owners to busy hanging with their crew to do anything. My dog doesn't even react because in his world they are nothing worth pursuing. I lunge and yell at the fuckers because the ankle biters are way to close to me and my 9 year old. That sets the owner off, and I politely explain what a leash is and if your dog isn't friendly it should be on one. That went well. And they were also from Texas. I know Texas is hot and shitty in the summer but that doesn't mean that gives you a free pass to come here and be assholes.

You sound friendlier than me. Kudos for the restraint.

[cat in january]

Yeah I often mutter my thoughts in situations like that just loud enough

[lifelinksplit]

I'm over letting people get away with that shit. Couple weeks ago I was at an alpine lake that was a short(3mi)hike in. Had a couple groups come and drop their shit right next to us. I walked over and said " hey, not sure if you're from around here and I'm sure you're nice people but I sure as shit don't hike into a lake to hang out with you and your crotch fruit and you prob don't want to be around me and my whiskey drinking weed smoking friends." Sometimes they're cool and other times they prob look at my bear spray and 10mm and gtfo. Anyways I'm usually chill as fuck but why do people think it's cool to just post up next to people campjng?

My wife says they are city people, that they naturally congregate where people are, basically the opposite of what anyone I know does in the mountains.

I think it was more a question of 25 to 1.
My climbing partner and I spent 4 days ferrying 240 pounds of climbing gear and food for a month into Lonesome Lake, Cirque of the Towers, Wind Rivers. Early July , fair amount of snow, we had the lake to ourselves. Camped on a little bench with a little runoff stream, a couple of small trees to break the wind, a snow bank to keep our cheese and chocolate cold. There were dozens of sites like that all around the lake. But a couple of days in what had to have been a church youth group camped 20 feet from us, scavenged enough wood at timberline to build a big fire, and sang campfire songs late into the night, interfering with our alpine start sleep. My friend michael, long hair, beard, face liek a hawk with deep set eyes goes over and squats barefoot in the snow just outside their circle, ice ax across his knees, rocking back and forth and staring into the fire. "Come sing with us" a young man cried. Michael kept staring and rocking. "He's got no shoes!!" a girl cried. The singing stopped suddenly. Dead silence. I ran over, grabbed Michael's ice ax, grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him back to our camp. "Goddammit Michael. You forgot to take your pills again." When we got up at 4 in the morning, the kids were gone. Not gone from their site. Gone from the Cirque/.

Two US astronauts are still stranded in orbit. What the hell Boeing, what’s the game plan here?!?

It seems to be "be too big/have too many defense contracts to fail". Really shitty feeling for those astronauts and their families.

Texans are everywhere, unfortunately. They range far and wide but still return to the motherland to replenish their fat cells with bbq and sugary treats.
