Vent Your Frustrations • Page 116

So I ended up finding out through my sister that my older brother is engaged. Needless to say, I won't be invited to the wedding because I haven't spoken to him since 2019 after he sided with my dad when all of that shit went down. But it's whatever. His fiancé is just as much of an insufferable, narcissistic piece of shit as he is so they're perfect for each other. I'm just hoping their plane crashes on the way to their honeymoon or his stupid ass Tesla ends up self driving into a river. And no, I don't feel bad for saying that, because that's minor in comparison some of the things he said to me over the years.

 

Every airport that's not the portland airport sucks. If there are any other non sucky airports plz let me know cause I'm only traveling there from now on

 

Sacramento airport is our pride and joy lol

 

Portland, ME airport is adorable. It’s not even technically called an airport it’s called a Jetport for some reason. Has like, 14 gates so it’s super easy to find where to go and each gate has 5-10 wooden rocking chairs and then a bunch of regular seats.

Only negative was the auto announcement that played every 45 seconds telling people it’s illegal to bring a gun to the airport lol. Block that out and it’s a super peaceful, quiet place to be.

 

Akron/Canton Airport in northeast Ohio. Easily the most chill airport known to mankind.

 

I am like... never sick. We're talking once a year max. But I woke up SO sick, just absolutely no way I can work, but it's gonna be an issue because this week is finals week and I have four exams to give in the next three days.

 

Being very dumb and not knowing how actual colleges work (I think that’s where you teach?) could it kind of be a good thing you’re sick this week because isn’t less talking and teaching than usual if the classes are doing finals?

Like, my memory of high school finals (I got my college degree from a fancy “online” “school” so finals were uh, not a thing lol) was the teacher just sitting there doing other stuff while we did the tests. So could you at least just put your head down or something most of the day lol? Or at least get to sit at your desk vs having to stand and have everyone watching you.

 

Long story short, I don't teach, I'm kind of like a full-time advisor, but I have exams to proctor and when I say sick, I mean like...high fever, dizzy, sore throat, can't walk straight sick. I also have to be engaged because the moment you're not, everyone uses ChatGPT for their exams.

 

Man, my opinions are so mixed on ChatGPT. Horrible for students, great tool for work

 

Agreed.

 

I've had the worst day ever. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong. I spilled coffee on my favorite shirt, missed the bus, and then got stuck in traffic for hours. It feels like the universe is conspiring against me today.

 

I know at the end of the day this is silly, but we had a gingerbread house making contest at work. My girlfriend and I went all out and spent a ton of time and a bit of money making ours, stayed up all night the night before. We won first place and everyone loved it, we were excited to show her niece and nephew when they visited for Christmas, we were both very proud of it. I come in to work today and am looking all around for it, and it turns out someone took it upon themselves to throw it away along with a few others that were left there for the day, with no one of authority asking them to do it. It's honestly pretty hurtful. I'm pissed, my boss is pissed. They threw away my coworker's lazy susan that she built hers on. No one is fessing up to it and there's about to be a bunch of office drama when they check the tapes. I just can't imagine what would go on in someone's head to make them think that was an okay thing to do.

 

Nah, that's pretty shitty of them. Like are the gingerbread houses really bothering you and in your way? I could see maybe if you're the last one there on Friday, but at least give people notice.

 

Who got last place?

 

Yeah I can't imagine what harm them sitting there for one day would cause. Oh people get to enjoy looking at them a little longer? There's always some office busybody taking it upon themselves to do shit no one wants or needs them to do so they feel important.

 

lol good questions, my suspect list is building.

 

Linda Belcher vibes

 

I’m sure everyone feels this way while they’re looking to move but it’s frustrating as hell that all the houses for sale in/around my city are all asking for way too much and yet the same type of houses, if not bigger/better, in other cities 30-40+ minutes away are cheaper and within what I want to pay.

And then there are the houses that have been on the market for 4-5 months now and still for sale and the owners aren’t budging in listed price. There are at least a dozen that show that they’ve dropped 30-50K over the last month or so. why the fuck do some of these people gotta be so hard headed to think they’ll get what they want even though now their list price is even more absurd than it was when houses were being bought basically within minutes! Lower your shit!

 

PLEASE update the thread when they find out who did it and the fallout of it!

 

OMG. I have people that I guess moved in behind me. They’re blasting their music!! Why does this keep happening to me!! I get the worst neighbors

 

That’s your cue to fight fire with fire and blare Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Music at full blast at 3 AM

 

I never bought a Bluetooth speaker but I guess I have to. I thought about it maybe a year ago when one of the previous people blasted their music all day and night and management did nothing (yet they send notices to everyone about how noise travels and to not to noisy). I’m not going to be nice this time. If it’s at night and excessive I’m calling security. Literally earlier I could feel the vibration. What’s worse is it’s the same fucking shitty genre

 

Someone tried to break into my girlfriend's car last night. Luckily they didn't succeed, but they fucked up her door pretty badly. Not something we wanted to have to deal with during the holidays, although it is nice to finally be in a place where something like this doesn't totally wreck us financially, and send our anxiety spiraling.

 

This lady nearly bit me as I was walking in this cross path. Literally INCHES away. If I walked any faster I would have been on her hood no lie. She sped up as I was walking

edit: I’m really shaking up over it and it’s casing me a lot of anxiety to the point I’m getting chills and started twitching

 

A week or so ago I bought some basic household shit from Wal-Mart. I just received an email from them asking to leave a review for one of the items… a box of Kleenex.

I did buy this, but I used my debit card at a self checkout and get the receipt printed (not emailed because who the fuck is sitting at self checkouts entering their email to get a receipt??????????).

I have only made 1 purchase on their site and it was months ago using the same card, but not to buy Kleenex.

So….. how the fuck did Wal-Mart know I bought Kleenex lately and get my email? I’m seriously debating making a stink about this and trying to contact someone at Wal-Mart. Like… there’s no logical way for them to have my email address and connect it back to a debit card used on an online order months ago and again a few days ago in store and think it’s ok to email that person, right? Seems shady as fuck to me.
