I had to use normal sausage to make dinner with because someone else used the italian sausage in something else, and it just doesn't taste right

No. I made it a point to just not go anywhere near there despite being a tech person. I live in pittsburgh (well near pittsburgh more like) and have to take 376. It gums up every day. I've seriously sat still for 10 minutes before. But they can't widen it to deal with the horrendous traffic because it has a tunnel and it wouldn't help. Wheeeeee! But I can't take the bus because it would take even freaking longer. At least the job bought me a parking pass for the ramp next door. Those run like $180 a month. More fwp: the job market for my chosen career is best in places I just plain don't want to live.

Against my better judgement I agreed to a 12 shift. The power just went out and took the AC with it. There's two hours still to go of my shift.

It's hard to get used to the touch pad on my macbook because I'm so used to the old clicky pads so usually I click instead of touching and it irritates me because I feel old. I love the swipe to go back a page on it and the iphone but I also forget to use it and instead use the back button.

My model of cellphone isn't compatible with Pokemon Go  and I can't justify replacing it with one that is because it still works as great as the day I got it. Not even so much as a cracked screen.

The Game of Thrones mod for Crusader Kings II is basically all I've ever wanted in a video game, but it crashes constantly and totally disrupts my tyrannical, inbred flow. It autosaves at the start of every year, so I don't lose much when it crashes, but because the game is so randomized, things can go very differently when you reload.

These days the meanings have changed but I don't think 2nd World gets used anymore.FWP: I got a degree that taught me that kind of poo poo and you wouldn't believe how useless it is in real life

I'm going to a Music Festival this weekend for 3 days and got VIP tickets, the weather will be suboptimal as the temperature will crash from 30°C to about 18-20°C with rain. I really dread it now even though I can go home in the evening and sleep in my own bed as it's just a half hour away.

Another one: the ginger beer I like only seems to come in two liter bottles, and I don't drink enough soda to finish them before it goes flat.

I made gazpacho yesterday and I'm already halfway through the batch, and I really want some more but I really don't feel like making another batch. I could simply make a bigger batch, but gazpacho's only good when it's freshly made (or nearly so), so if I make a bigger batch it would last for several days and be icky by the time I get to eat the last of it. Also I went for a run last night but Pokémon Go didn't recognize I was moving so I hatched no eggs  MY LIFE IS SO HARD

I work at a restaurant. Pretty much my entire job is cleaning up after people. My apartment looks like poo poo, but the tables at work are immaculate. ToxicSlurpee posted:My daily commute sucks. If I avoid rush hour traffic it isn't so bad but it can potentially take a freaking hour. It's ten miles. Some people can probably run that in an hour. Mocking Bird posted:Do you live in the Bay Area too I live in the Bay Area. I avoid the commute by living in a poo poo apartment on the same block as my place of employment. Also, I went back to my poo poo job. Tonight was my first shift in over a week. I'm kind of wondering why I bothered to go back, but if I quit I'd have to go out and look for another job.

The turkey pot pie I got at one grocery store is smaller, but has more calories than the same one, same brand, same price, than the one at the other grocery store  also I feel really stupid buying a TV dinner when I could have cooked this myself.

It seems like everyone in the world is losing their minds about this new pokemon game and I don't really care about it so I feel like I'm being left out and worry that I look like a jerk to my friends by not getting in on the craze but I just am not interested

I make so much more money now than I used to that I'm just constantly confused. I make more per paycheck then I used to in two months. I'm so accustomed to panicking over money that I don't know how to behave now. My life just suddenly became comfortable and I still have no idea what to do with that. I can pay my rent ahead of time instead of freaking out and deciding what not to pay on time every month. It's unfamiliar, strange territory.

If its really brand new spend some of it on dumb poo poo that would have given you a panic attack a few months ago. Like $200 headphones or an occulus rift or a really nice coat or a pricey lounge chair. Heck i love lists.

bring back old gbs posted:If its really brand new spend some of it on dumb poo poo that would have given you a panic attack a few months ago. Like $200 headphones or an occulus rift or a really nice coat or a pricey lounge chair. Heck i love lists. Well I have some debts to pay off and need to stock up on my emergency money and what have you before I make major purchases like that. I have, however, been eating out more often and drinking some good beer. First big purchases will probably be art supplies and getting my musical instruments fixed. Granted the other side of it is that I just plain don't have expensive tastes; I also realized that with a few more years' experience I could be making way, way more (I'm a software developer now  ) and realize that I'd have no idea what the gently caress to do with $100,000 a year. The nice lady that I date (it's complicated) also doesn't have expensive tastes so I can't ask her for help blowing it either though I guess we could set up a ceramic studio somewhere and make pots? I don't know.It mystifies me that some people can make $200,000 a year and still be broke all the time. What the hell do they do with it?

I got a really nice (and unexpected) pay rise recently and as I'm so used to living within my current budget, I'm now not sure what to do with the extra. Do I try to save more or do I go buy myself a fancy suit and pointy shoes?

Why they can't integrate the messenger function into the main app is beyond me, but maybe that's why I'm not a mobile app developer.

Mikl posted:loving Facebook, just let me loving read my loving messages from mobile without loving forcing me to install loving Messenger, gently caress It's annoying to do, but if you tell your bowser to open the website as if it were desktop, you can get your messages. I have one Facebook tab permanently opened in desktop mode so I can reply to messages, because I'm not installing a loving information stealing app so I can reply to the one message a week I get. (seriously, why do people who have my phone # use Facebook chat?)
