I might have done a credit card fuckup. A few months ago my bank was bought out by a bigger bank, and they sent me an e-mail saying "Hey, the credit card you have now won't be supported any more starting March 1st, come over to the local office and make a new one." So I went and did that, it was a non-issue. I looked around and made sure to take my old credit card off everything so no charges would get on it after February 28th. Except I forgot Netflix, which renewed yesterday so that's ten euros on a card I was not supposed to use anymore. I seriously hope this doesn't lead to bigger problems down the line.

Because of a series of events I created, set-up, and fostered, my boss just pocketed $6,000. And out of that $6,000 he's mulling over giving me $250.

I thought about it. I told him he can expect me to do exactly $0 of that type of business ever again if he chooses that level of compensation, so he's going to "figure it out" now.

I remember once, long ago, mty then-boss was out of town, and a coworker and I secured a $4k order. We busted our rear end to get it done, and when he came back we proudly showed him the order and all the setup. He looked it over and said good job, then showed us how that 4k wasn't anything when he had just done a 6k order. And he wondered later why morale went to poo poo.

Mom refuses to use anything but Hotmail, now Outlook, for her emails. Outlook has been down for about 20 minutes. Has she stopped throwing a fit over it despite me telling her to chill and do something else (like watch her 200 hours of DVR Big Bang Theory)? Nope!

There's a good quick service Japanese place I go to that has switched to brown rice by default. I guess it's healthier but I can't think of any restaurant ever that assumes you want brown rice.

Brown rice is way better than other rices. It takes a crap ton longer to cook but it's so good.

This is why I opt for it when I dine out; unless it's the weekend and I'm planning a meal well in advance, I don't want to sit around four or five hours waiting on my rice cooker to finish some brown rice, but if the local Chinese place has some ready to go, well then just load me up, friend

My Friday breakfast french toast came with too much sugar and whipped cream and not enough blueberries. And then I read the news and lost my appetite.

I flipped over to a hip-hop radio station in the way to work, and the hosts were talking about the themes and symbolism of Jordan Peele's Us. No plot details, but I still feel pretty spoiled because they weren't apparent in the trailer.

Three icons on my desktop are all coincidentally greyscale, and every time I look over there my brain has a nanosecond of concern along the lines of "hey waitaminute is my monitor breaking?". I mean, you'd think that the fact that I can see the color of the desktop itself, you'd think this wouldn't happen, but aaaaaugh it is.

"I'll try something new tonight", I thought as I placed the order for pizza at work. "That Buffalo sauce sounds pretty good. Odd name, but surely they wouldn't just slather an entire pizza with hot sauce!" They did, in fact, slather an entire pizza in hot sauce. On the bright side my sinuses are clear as fuuuuuuck

All I know is there is a lady and a man and a little girl and a boy who has a mask. And doppelgangers and scissors. That's enough.

Clocked in a few minutes early today, only to find out they changed the shift starting time, and I was suddenly over an hour late. Still ended up working 12 hours, on my feet the entire time. Oh, and maybe two hours into my shift they transferred me to another department I've never been to, because someone else didn't show up so I had to learn a bunch of new poo poo on top of everything else.

I worked at a computer store many years ago, and someone tried to return a laptop for a defective display, because part of the screen was darker than the rest. I fixed it by closing the semi-transparent widget bar.

I pause Hulu and it exits after a while but doesn’t remember where I left off. I had khachapuri today and it was kind of gross. The butter and cheese was way too rich and the egg was basically raw. I’m willing to try it again at a different place but maybe ask for it to be in the oven some more

The day before it came out, some radio dj blabbed how Peele is the new M Night Shamalyan and there's so many twists in the movie but especially the ending. She didn't give any more details but kept harping about how there are soooo many twists she made the movie sound like every M Night Sham movie ever. Not detailing, of course, how most of his movies suck, and he shouldn't have done the twist ending after the Sixth Sense because then people wouldn't watch his movies expecting that.

I am a Slav who can’t squat! Squatting isn’t even my goal, just flexibility in general, but I’ve never even been able to touch my toes without bending my knees a bit. Every time I find some kind of exercise I like I end up having to stop because my knees hurt or start clicking weirdly. I worry that my current yoga attempt will turn out that same and I really hope it doesn’t because it’s working for me ☹️

Nah, put your favourite salty food on the floor in front of you, equip leg braces and try to reach it. That's gonna motivate you to bend better.

It might be worth doing squats and stretches in front of a professional to get some pointers. Make sure it's not some BS crossfit class.

I've been trying to find a clip of the scene from The Office where Toby stands up during a party and panickedly yells "I just had a man sentenced to death and I dont think he did it anymore!!" Followed by Dwight hitting the soundboard and making it go "OHH YEEAAHH!" because it was the only scene in the show to make me actually laugh out loud but apparently it's the only scene nobody else found funny enough to clip
