Shit that annoys you

[Danno]

I'm amazed when my phone weather predicts that it will start raining at a specific hour and it does exactly that.

[The AD]

That kind is better than the ones where there's a two micron tab hanging over the edge that's impossible to grasp.

Agreed.

And I'll try frorider's technique next time.

Follow me for more great tips. They should have a mark on there saying Pinch Here.

KQ, how soon does your taste come back? Next day?

[old goat]

I've noticed a gradual decrease in taste as I age. I'm not suggesting this is your problem KQ, but my response has been to triple the spices. One extra shot for my aging taste buds. One extra shot for my aging spices.

Damn; that's right up there with bikes and e-scooters on the sidewalk annoyance.

Weeks usually or longer. I was on a good run lately where I could actually taste but BAM! It came back yesterday.

This isn't diminished taste - it's no taste whatsoever. They curry I make has triple what the recipe calls for (yellow curry). The house smells like it as do the clothes I was wearing when I made it but taste it? Nope.

While it would be really swell if your current Doc was correct, definitely get at least one second opinion. I foresee a possible brain scan in your future.

New one my wife recently encountered: a fuckin' golf cart.

I second this. Get a second opinion sooner than later.

Must be completely frustrating. Maybe a neurologist?

At the risk of appearing mean, I once encountered a woman in a wheel chair with two dogs, one on either side of her chair, who insisted she was entitled to the entire path and I was obligated, along with my dog, to get the fuck out of the way by stepping off the path.

[Name Redacted]

Heh. There’s a story there.

Back atcha!

Dirtbike. Woke up and the surgeon said he didn't know if he was gonna save it.

Maybe an ENT based on this:

Definitely. The intermittent nature is concerning though.

Union Hill road is almost like that on the shoulder, but it's blackberries.

I got a good rack of scabs on my right forearm as a result.

Getting an email from Xfinity to "Enjoy Peacock Premium at no extra cost" with explicit instructions in the email as to how to enable this... and the instructions don't work for shit.

I mean... I *shouldn't* be surprised, given the source, but it's still annoying.

Fuck Comcast right in the ear socket!

I got the same email and haven't tried yet. Another annoying and somewhat amusing piece is that Xfinity HAD Peacock Premium as an account bonus, so I had it already, until this month. Got emails saying it was being discounted as a bonus and offering special pricing to sign up for a subscription. Then it's back to being free. I hope anyone who did pay gets their money back!

People who insist on asking questions during a training when we were told to hold questions.

Naw - it's only free for "Platinum" and "Diamond" clients, so not for everyone.

Only reason I have *any* interest in it is so I can watch Premier League games later this summer. Figured I'd be preemptive about it and get things sorted early.

So much for that. Now I'll forget about it, and when August rolls around will be scrambling to try to make it work.

I'm sure this was mentioned but people that ask million questions when ordered from limited menu. Starbucks has the worst offenders. Just order you late fuckachino and move on.

Our son was here the past couple weeks. Great kid, glad he could come visit. Yesterday morning I took him to the airport. Before he left he wanted to make himself a smoothie so he went down to the freezer in the garage to get more frozen berries. It's like 90 degrees in the garage. Just found out he didn't close the freezer door all the way. I'm sure he was distracted and in a hurry, but fuck. Freezer full of shit, ruined. Annoying.

fkn annoying

Patient's that complain about how long exams are taking, even though they are not even on our scanners, despite our technologists and field service engineers trying to fix a mechanical problem with the scanners.
Low wit patients threatening to sue everyone they see because of the minor inconvenience to their incredibly busy day watching Faux News at home.
I wish we could just post "we reserve the right to refuse service" on our entrance doors, but then again, we've had patients that we've had security escort directly out of our department after threatening us with violence, fuck off & don't come back.
