Shit that annoys you

[Flyoverland Captive]

Entitled shitheads. I run a resort. A woman just called to ask me to cancel her reservation at a completely different resort. When I explained that she needed to call this other entity, she said, "But you're in the same town. Just call them for me!"

The response is “sure, no problem” and then hang up

I guess that’s annoying, but I laughed.

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.

Ms Boissal did an ever worse version of that a couple years back. She needed to plug something in, closest outlet has the freezer and security cam on it. For some unexplainable reason she decided to unplug the freezer instead of the cam, did what she needed to do, and moved on without plugging it back in. I didn't notice until the next day when I came home from work. I had a half lamb in that freezer along with a whole lot of other food. I berated her hard on that one, she eventually cried when I pointed out that the cute lamb had died for nothing and as a vegetarian she should feel terrible about it. Lesson probably not learned as I noticed she had unplugged the freezer again recently to do some other project. Craziest part is that the outlet is on the ceiling, meaning she needs a stepladder to get to it, and that requires more effort than grabbing the extension cord that is within reach of the freezer and walking to the next outlet...

-5 for making the old lady cry.

[powdrhound]

You obviously need to add an outlet for her.

A friend's wife unplugged the chest freezer in their garage to plug something else in, then forgot to plug the freezer back in afterward. Nobody noticed for a week, in summer, when the smell became noticeable.

The freezer was full of game - deer, fish, etc. He said no amount of bleach was able to get rid of the smell - freezer went to the dump.

Fuckn beaches that you can look at but can't touch.

Oh, you don't live in this town? Sorry, you'll have to leave. Can we pay more? No, leave.

Oh you have a dog. Sorry :shrug: Leave.

That's right there is no place to park in town without a permit. You'll have to leave.

Is this the things that suck about Connecticut thread? Not the sandwiches.

Jersey?

[gravitylover]

LI, NJ, CT, RI, MA, they're all the same. At least on Cape Cod there are 3 National Seashore beaches dogs are allowed on but there isn't a single beach on Long Island that you can bring a dog between 10am and 6pm. In CT beaches are private down to the mean tide line so you can only look from the street anyway unless it's public and then the restrictions are onerous.

That's my old stomping grounds. I spent a lot of really memorable times between Niantic and Narragansett as a mud skipper. I wonder how it has changed and what I'd thing about it these days.

[ötzi]

It hasn't really changed here in my lifetime as far as public access. And I can't remember dogs ever being allowed on public beaches in the summer. People are reportedly more aggressive about defending their property rights but I haven't run into it myself.

There's a big state-owned beach a couple miles from here but you gotta pay for parking - $40 for out-of-state is a pretty sharp bite I'll agree but the $10 lifetime pass for Mass. residents 62 and over is pretty nice. https://www.mass.gov/locations/horse...te-reservation

[Foggy_Goggles]

It just kinda took me down memory lane. My happiest time as a kid were defiantly fuckin around at the beach swimming, boating, fishing, crabbing and as I got older surfing and hell raising.

Is $40 a day pass? I guess the flip side is where my parents live in Florida, they have some awesome free beaches with parking, lifeguards, showers, bathrooms, picnic pavilions and such. Its all paid for by the tax payers of the small city which is only a very small percentage of the users.

I understand the grocery pick up spots during the pandemic but now the best parking spots are reserved for motherfuckers who are too lazy to get out of their cars so somebody can load groceries into their car. At least make it reserved parking for somebody who has has their legs blown off to protect our freedom not some lazy douchebag.

[ötzi]

Yeah Foggy $40 for a day pass out of state, $13 in state but Mass residents can buy a season pass that's good for all Mass. state parks for a year, and that's what's $10 for seniors.

The town here has its own beach, it's $35 for the year, but free over age 62. It's really the same beach as the state beach, just a different section of it. My wife takes the dogs down there every morning, she's not supposed to in the summer but nobody bitches at her as long as its before the lifeguards come on.

[Foggy_Goggles]

But wait...if I park there am I a lazy douchebag?

Is there a shortage of handicapped spots? Because, the proximity of the spots to the store are for the staff and business purposes.

I'm happy to load them in my car myself, but I very much appreciate being able to pay the store $3 for someone to do the actual shopping for me.

I actually strongly dislike the parking deal, because the spots aren't big enough to get the doors fully open if someone slides into the one next to me, and that makes loading groceries a pain. I'd happily park on the far side of the lot, but adding two minutes to each pick-up order is going to add up on the labor side.

That would be annoying.

One thing CA did right is fight for public beach access. The Coastal Commission will take legal action against private landowners who illegally block public access, and it actively pursues prescriptive easements in places where the public has a long history of accessing a beach across private property.
