I did. They’re clearly marked. I’m just a nice guy and Mr. Potatohead would have had the others without power for another hour or more until the power company came out, fixed it in 10 seconds and left pissed at the very obvious solution.
That certainly counts as your good deed for the day, Chimera, to spare so much aggravation for so many random other humans.
Good on you, dude. Good on you.
The other side of that coin is what you can do if a neighbour insists on making too much noise with a stereo or tv in their apartment now. 
Maybe that’s why six of them were turned off. Somebody else was trying to do a good deed, and couldn’t figure out which apartment had the loud music…
Teeny gripe: My fellow Midwesterner friends on Facebook who are ranting a ton about “OMG there’s cold and snow but it’s Spring WTF!!?!1” I understand that we had an unseasonably warm winter last year. We also had a scorching drought that hit Illinois exceptionally hard and is possibly the US’s second most expensive natural disaster, after Katrina.
So really, this is just a return to normal. Anyone who lives around here should know that we don’t really get “spring”-like weather until maybe mid-April. And even then it’s touchy - my sister has an early/mid-April birthday and was born during a huge snowstorm that left my mom stranded at home, wondering if my dad would be able to make it home from work and then get both of them to a hospital in time. (He did, they did.) So, c’mon guys. Bitch about cold if you want, but blaming Spring/the groundhog is just silly.
And you had to walk barefoot through six feet of snow to get to those ASCII games! Uphill! Both ways!
I pit the way life treats people sometimes.
I’m not having a great time in life at the moment. Also, one of my classmates hasn’t come to class for a while, and is having leg problems. Also, a good friend of mine just had a baby, and I was really happy when I found out - but then I learned that the baby’s premature and is quite sick. 
I hope things will turn out okay.
So sick of my thinning hair, due to thyroid issues , it fine and white, only looks good for an hour or two after the hair salon:(.
I pit goddamn fucking cell phones and every other fucking ipece of technology that I can’t figure out. I’m so enraged that I’m crying with anger because of that fucking phone. I just want to smash every piece of technology in the house.
Sitting in a cafeteria, waiting for this year’s school “talent show”. God I can’t stand these things. At least it’s jut an hour.
Left lane campers are the bane of my existence these days. I don’t care if you’re going ten over the speed limit and it’s your God-given right to do whatever speed you like in whatever lane you like - MOVE THE FUCK OVER when traffic bunches up behind you. It’s not only the law (“Keep right except to pass”), it’s also the right thing to do, so the rest of us don’t have to imagine you careening wildly off the road and exploding in a fiery ball of flames.
Why does my fucking pre-paid phone start ringing every motherfucking day just after 11am when I’ve just gone on lunch? I finally reverse-lookup’d one of the numbers that calls every day and it is a collection agency. Presumably looking for “Jennifer” who had this number up until a month ago. Today I answered it and I got three beeps and a disconnect. Then there’s the 512-number that keeps calling for her and leaving exasperated 1-2 word voicemails. (ie, “Really?”, “sigh”, “Gee, THANKS!”) Look DUMBASS, I spoke to you once and said it was my number now. My voicemail says my name. Stop fucking calling expecting “Jennifer” to answer, you brain damaged piece of subhuman refuse.

Go short and use lots of product. Ask what was used on you at the salon, and then buy some and ask the stylist how to use it. Hats are good too, not baseball caps. They will keep your head warm and add style to your look.
Back when I lived in BFE, I didn’t like to change lanes, so if I need to pass someone, I’d move over and then stay in the left lane until someone came up behind me. Then I’d stay in the right lane until I need to pass. Rinse, wash and repeat.
Now that I live in the land of everyone but me driving big pickups at 100 mph, I tend to stay in the right lane. I’d rather deal with the on ramps than the 6 other lanes of bumper to bumper traffic.
You were the sort of kid who looked in the mirror and said “Bloody Mary” 3 times aren’t you? Please do notice that I snipped the name.
When Bill got home tonight, I watched him get in my car, turn the key, look at the dashboard and then come in to kiss me. When I asked him why he had done it, he said it was because he was checking my mileage.
I was seriously upset. Why would he care how far I had driven? How dare he try to check up on me?!? Doesn’t he trust me!!!
I was too busy sputtering to actually yell at him. I don’t think he even noticed that I was upset, he turned around to put his stuff down and told me that he’d be taking my car to get an oil change over the weekend.
I’m an idiot. :smack:
Oh, and the BWW, which seemed so far away is actually almost here. I want to be married to Bill. I just don’t want to get married.
I don’t know that one.
At least you didn’t get to yell at him before finding out what his intentions were. Crow really doesn’t taste all that good.
Wow. I never would have imagined that someone had a more sheltered childhood than me.
Apparently there are many things I wasn’t exposed to in childhood… 
That is a weird thing to do!
You are so right, Crow never tastes good. its just that nobody has every thought to do that for me before.
Curlie, be happy that you didn’t know how evil kids can be. And some adults…I’ve noticed snipes in the yard, when you go by next time, can you bring your dogs?
Where’s the friggin’ ‘like’ button for this? I am so sick of those idiots. It gets even worse when you work retail because then you have to hear it from everyone! It’s like they forgot everything before the past year.
I’m in a mood. I had weird dreams, my son is acting up unusually for him after many months of good behaviour and I’m not sure how to deal with it except my initial reaction of wanting to smack him and tell him to smarten up probably isn’t the best so I managed to not do so.
I’m done with this week, I just want to hide out in the woods with nothing but Netflix, knitting and a roaring fire and all the food I need.
Can I?
