I can’t say for sure, but most likely it was about traffic or traffic signals.

You know, I used to have this problem a lot, people mumbling and I’d always have to ask them to speak up and repeat what they said. Then I got my hearing checked. Turns out it wasn’t them, it was me! Just sayin’…

Do you mean who I most recently berated in my head? Someone who is supposed to be off a project but keeps being involved in it anyway.

Yes. And the really stupid part was we are in almost the middle of nowhere, at 9 AM, and there was NO ONE behind me as far as I could see. You couldn’t just brake slightly and pull in behind me??

As a consumer? The clerk at the grocery store was complaining about another customer and I suggested maybe he not do so when there are other customers standing there.

Guys with Vape boxes intentionally blowing huge clouds of smoke in the faces of people leaving a theater.

I was told that I should be more tolerant.

Are you my SO?

She was nearly in tears one night about how full our two freezers are. I calmed her down and explained that this is a good thing. We can just not buy stuff for a while and live off of the venison, beef, turkey, raviolis, lamb, veggies, soups, ice packs, etc that we have stockpiled.

Oh, and the downstairs refrigerator is overflowing with beer. \*That’s \*a good thing, too.

Cheer! 🙂

The decades-old microwave in the kitchen at work finally died so yesterday the new one came in. Today it already has a spill in it that the person didn’t bother to clean up. I would say it did not stay clean for even the first 24 hours.

I am alternating between Seinfeld’s “People. They’re the worst” and “This is why we can’t have nice things”. And also, “What a fucking asshole”.

Doors on my Honda locking themselves. With the keys inside. Two days after the missus lost the spare.

Wait, do over! I want to change my answer to a more accurate:

I’m sure I have yet to complain my last.

I’d go with Harry Dean Stanton in **Repo Man** : “Ordinary people. I fuckin’ hate 'em.”

Yes! This exact thing. Without losing the spare but a husband with his key not in easy reach. WTF Honda?? I wanted to love my honda, but it is damned difficult with all the issues.

A proposal to rezone a single lot in my neighborhood. Rezoning that lot could open the door to rapid overbuilding and gentrification.
