I got off work and wanted some Pringles only to find out my roommate had eaten enough so that they're just out of my reach in the can. Now I have to pour it out and get the crushed bits at the bottom everywhere.

I'm watching an LP stream that I absolutely love, but I loving hate the co commentator with every fiber of my being. It's making me not want to waste time watching the stream.

If your hand's big enough that you can't reach pringles far enough down, it should also be big enough to catch the crumbs.

That or just use a bowl or something, dang.

We don't get cold water in the summer. All the pipes in the neighborhood are too close to the surface, so the water is the same temperature as the hot water coming out of the heater.

Not having to eat a black Jujyfruit is like not having to eat a yellow Starburst, a blessing that gets you out of following candy etiquette.

I can never check my heart rate accurately.

The moment I put my hand on a pulse point my heart starts to race because im actively trying to keep it at its normal level. Sort of like someone telling you not to blink and then that's all your body wants to do. Except I tend to go the extra mile and end up with some abnormally high (and inaccurate) heart rate. And because i'm usually on edge in doctors offices/hospitals, my heart rate will soar if a doctor comes in to check it. And then right as they leave to "come back and try again later" it drops to normal levels. Eventually they just have to ask me to watch it myself or they'll wait in the room a few minutes more until it slowly drops.

This may or may not have been caused by watching medical dramas at a very young age.

It definitely sucks, but being on the internet should have taught you that 99% of nerds are lovely people years ago. Try to see if there's a board games group(NOT a wargaming group, grognards are even worse than D&D nerds) around, they tend to be less terrible than D&D groups but still run pen and paper games.

The board game groups around here are worse than the D&D groups. :v: I just want to sit in a basement and pretend to be an elf without having to hear a single "Ugly monster? I BET IT'S JEWISH!" comment for an evening. Is that too much to ask?

It's too cloudy to watch the meteor shower, so now I have to do actual stuff.

Edit: So I checked Google to see if there were any areas around here where it was less cloudy to watch, maybe on a mountain somewhere, and almost every single website referred to this area as the Rocky Mountains. IT'S THE loving BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS. Hell, I would've settled for Appalachian. And now I'm pissed.

The incredibly expensive, internet-regulated, free coffee robot at work cheats when making mocha lattes. It just pours into a bit of hot chocolate powder into my cup before adding the coffee. What is this bullshit? Why isn't it melting chocolate inside its burnished metal shell at the very moment of mocha latte inception? I'm complaining to HR.

I can't search for it on demand because my brother and his wife won't like it if my nieces catch a glimpse because on demand is only on the living room tv. :argh:

To be fair, so are you. The books are way better than the movies. You're not missing out as much as she is, but nevertheless.

My problem is I want to read so many things but I'm terrible at taking time to read things.
