The post whore thread.

Nice.

Across the street neighbors regularly put big boxes out that invariably get blown everywhere due to being a high wind area.

After Christmas, they did it again. So I went and used packing tape to tape all the boxes together and then taped the boxes to their recycling bin.

With the plethora of ravens in the area. There's even a hint of something on top of or in a semi open trash can. Those feathery fiends will go through it, throwing trash all over the place like professional dumpster divers.

Anyone else here deal with a spouse, partner, co-worker...who is a trash can dumbass?

I'm talking about someone who would try and shove a pizza box or a full size cereal box into a half, or mostly full trash can...and just walk away like everything's okay with what you just did?

wtf?

At least break the thing down and slide it down one of the long sides of the can liner, or if recycling is available where you live, break it down for that can.

This and the habit of throwing half full containers of liquids in the trash can like pop, coffee, etc. Drives me nuts.

I'll see you.


Removes items i'm using to prep other than meat, puts in dishwasher, even though i'm still using them. I'm like WTF, i'm still using that. Oh well we have a dishwasher, take another from the drawer.


YET...............................uses the same coffee cup, over and over. With a quick rinse under the faucet, and calls it clean?

I do most of the cooking in our house. When cooking, the kitchen is off freaking limits.....stay out! Nobody listens to me, but that's my policy.

Dammit. I lost my watch. Nothing super expensive, a titanium Seiko, but my wife got it for me about 20 years ago, when we had much less than we do now. I’m bummed, sentimental and stuff. She’s convinced it’ll turn up, but I really think I lost it at the gym, either into or out of the locker, so it’s gone. Surprisingly, 20 years later they still make a really similar watch, if not the same one. I figure if I order an exact replacement, then the old one will show up, and my wife will mock me with abandon. Or I could order a different watch, so that if the missing one shows up, I’ll have two different watches. Nah, then she’ll think I didn’t like the one she got me, can’t have her thinking that. Settled - I’ll order one like the original. Sometimes tequila and typing gives you the answer. Kinda like a magic 8 ball.

You really think your wife would think you didn't like something that you wore for twenty years?

[Fentonite]

You’d be surprised...

[Irving]

Man even if you didn't, I'd say you earned it.

And as long as I was placing an order, I grabbed a dash cam and a pill minder. Consumerism in action.
