i just send them a polite e-mail saying i'm all set, and they say ok thanks have a good one and they stop contacting me? basic courtesy like bothering to take ten seconds and reply goes a long way

of course, if you're terrible with human interactions, i suppose not replying for days and then posting about it here doesn't work at all

I invented a new game called "wfh DDR", and it's when you're taking a poo poo at the same time your roomba is trying to vacuum the bathroom.

I have never vacuumed, or seen anyone vacuum, or heard about anyone vacuuming their bathroom. It's a bathroom just hose it down or mop it.

My roomba managed to find and eat an (unopened) pad, which I thought was impressive. Got the fucker wedged right up behind the bristle thingers so I couldn't see it until I took it apart, after the app complained about poor suction a few times.

It's kinda like having a really stupid pet.

you say that like dog owners can’t tell that exact same story

except the bit about the app, probably

when people were still calling it The Wuhan Flu and rushing the supermarkets, I went to 99 Ranch which was dead quiet thanks to racists. I bought about a month's worth of frozen dumplings and a brick of hotpot base to share with my friends once this all blows over.

when people were panic buying in the spring I was at one safeway in sf and the “rice” section was empty shelves and directly across the same aisle was the Asian section with piles of 5 to 25 pound bags of good rice it was like :psyduck:

the places I shop in chinatown were out of the exact kinds I usually buy for like 2 weeks tops

It's not right living this way, not letting others know what's true and what's false.
I own a lot of dumb kitchen appliances and in the D.K.A. ranking system (general usefulness, not taking up shittons of space), a small one-button rice cooker is definitely near the top. That said I almost never drag it out anymore, because when I'm making rice now it's in 'meal prep' quantities.

I bought a four lb. chuck roast and vac pack'd (again, D.K.A.) it and shoved it in the freezer.

I live alone.

After ten months in there I finally made chili con carne and lived off of it for like a week.
