Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 436

I bought a box of protein shakes and at least one so far is empty. This has happened to me with cans of seltzer too. Why is this a thing??

 

Also update on my pursuit of keeping an eye out for cinnamon gum but not putting in any more effort than that, I saw a regular pack of cinnamon gum at a checkout counter but it only had 5 sticks in it.

So far the updated criteria is:

Cinnamon flavored
Not a bunch of bulky and/or plastic packaging
More than 5 sticks in a pack

 

Like, you opened a can and there’s no shake inside of it??

How does that even happen?

 

Yeah it's sealed but clearly empty. I haven't checked to see if any more are like that. I had that happen with target brand seltzer too. Sealed can but nothing in it.

 

Okay, that’s weird

 

it's happened to me with fortune cookies which is jarring

 

Also if anyone else is on this cinnamon gum journey themselves, this tea is where it's at. So flavorful it doesn't need any milk or sugar. It's like big red gum in drink form. I've probably gone through over 20 tins/boxes of it which actually kinda sucks cause idk what to do with the empty tins so I just accumulate them

 

Keep feeling like I'm forgetting something today and it's making me anxious.

 

This tea is the best

 

Being volunteered for things that I didn’t agree to

 

The best. When I worked at Caribou Coffee ~12 years ago, we carried Harney & Sons tea and one of our employee perks was being able to take home a 1/2 lb of coffee beans or a dozen tea sachets for free each week. I constantly stocked up on this stuff

When my company tries to get us to make donations to community causes. I’d love to but it’s insulting constantly being asked given how low the pay is in my department.

 

Your company should be the one donating on your behalf if they care so much

 

scabs

 

Artists releasing singles and short EPs that’ll be on an album that then clutter my Recently Added and push proper albums down before I’m done with them. And the fear that deleting those small releases later affects play counts.

My belt.

If I adjust my belt to the second notch, my pants end up feeling too loose. If I put it on the third, my pants are way too tight and uncomfortable.

 

I got a velcro belt for this reason lol

Plus if you're a bigger person, it slightly helps the annoying pain from your belt buckle grinding into your stomach all day

 

Yeah I might need to do that!

 

I wish the pharmacy could have two lines. One for those of us who are just picking up our regular boring prescriptions and those who have all the questions and seem like they just found out what a pharmacy is before they got in line.

 

don't forget people who treat pharmacies like grocery stores and have a dozen items

This is the one I ended up with, not a bad price!

 

Super cool getting a rejection letter for a job I applied to 12 hours prior. It wasn’t one I was particularly interested in and it’s obviously an auto response but come on lol
