Don’t books have spines for a reason?

I’ve had this mouse for years, I know, old model, but come on

12 year old son said he was getting a popsicle last night out of the deep freeze vertical freezer in the garage. Wife yelled down to him make sure the door closes tight. He said ok. I got a text at 9am with some pics this morning with her saying it was open all night…

After being faced by this insurmountable staircase with my bad hip. I looked for an elevator, but the call button didn't work.

There was a sign.. call whoever you are visiting and arrange for them to bring the elevator down.

So I called and I got voicemail for the ultrasound clinic. And I waited for a while and eventually I did the staircase.

The lady clarified she has been paying rent & security deposit upfront, but the Owner isn't countersigning the lease. The owner leaves her on seen when she messages. The owner doesn't deny the lady from entering the rental home. Also there's repairs that need to be done urgently but the owner keeps leaving her on seen.

I am so tired of eBay. I occasionally sell cards and other things on here. Half the time I run auctions, the buyer asks to cancel the order. Too bad buddy, if you bid on something you are committing to purchasing that item. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. I am sick and tired of these people. To make matters worse, eBay usually sides with them and makes you re-list the product with zero consequences to the buyer. They need to put a better system in place for their auctions. This has happened to me at least 10 times, and I have lost thousands of dollars with these scumbag scammers not paying for auctions they win.

And before you say, oh you should just use buy it now. I do that as well but it takes way longer to get the item sold and sometimes I need the money sooner rather than later.

Edit: I have been getting accused of being a scalper/flipper in the comments by a bunch of people. I have had my card collection for years, this specific card I purchased last year because I thought it was cool and i genuinely enjoyed it. I don’t understand how selling my collection and wanting to move on makes me a scalper? Some people are so out of touch and it’s the main reason I am getting out of this hobby. I guess selling on eBay instantly makes you a scalper! ✌🏼

Triplets were behind me and a rouge in front of me started chiming in. Parents were doing their best. No one was actually upset. I’d whine too if I had to sit in these seats another hour.

EDIT: Rogue one (I cannot spell). And just to reiterate, no one was upset. Kids will be kids and the parents were doing their best. This video is just for laughs (including my face).

At Home Depot today - why on earth did someone think this was ok in the first place?!

We live in a town with a lot of seniors and typically thier driving is annoying but this takes the cake. Just cruising down a major highway

Took MY ipad away from her and came back from work to this. Lovely idea to soak my collection in water then slather it on the wall. Thankfully it’s my regular cards I left out last night bc idk what I’ve would’ve done 💀💀

I have 3 kids, all girls. A 5yr old and twins who are 1. Every time anyone hears about this or it comes up in conversation they all say the same thing. ‘Ooooo, all girls, you are outnumbered! How do you cope?’ Or ‘Three girls?? You better watch out!’ Or the worst, ‘Bet you want a boy?’

No, I don’t feel any of that, I love being a dad. I love all my kids and wouldn’t change anything about them! If we could afford it, I would be a stay at home dad forever.

I usually tell them I wouldn’t change anything and I love it all but it’s just very annoying.

What are some of the best responses that I can start to give?

I did think I could say that one of the twins used to be a boy but is now trans just to shut people up!

This light is I think what must be 100m away, it’s so bright I’m casting perfectly sharp shadows on the walls. The third photo is INSIDE the house, this is the shade it casts through the window.

I don’t understand why it’s pointed our way, it’s right next to a regular street lamp which should brighten the road enough.

Last two photos indicate the difference between looking at another part of the street and looking at the fucking beam pointed my way.

I have always wondered why the streetlamp was so bright when going to bed, our curtains aren’t that dark so it shines right through. I’ve been sleeping with a mask so it doesn’t bother me. But last night I was outside checking out some noises I heard around 2am (that’s when I took these photos, my phone doesn’t do that well in the dark so this is insane), and I realised how horrible that light actually is. I remember getting blinded by it if I went to grab something from the kitchen in the middle of the night but always thought it was just a really annoyingly bright streetlight. But it’s on the neighbours’ side of the property and really just pointed at our house.

[UPDATE]

[I uploaded photos in an update post for anyone who's interested, but I'm not allowed to add a link to my post and I'm not sure how to otherwise show these]

I was blown away by the unexpected many, many reactions to this post. I just found out what the origin of this shitty light was and found it interesting enough to share.

I've been laughing my ass off at all the many ideas and advise I got. From placing mirrors to reflective window screens. Or to instantly call emergency (or non emergency, government) lines because of the terrible crime of placing a bright lamp. Or to just simply burn their house down.

At least I felt like I had an army of angry redditors ready to ride at dawn as soon as the neighbour would not comply. And a couple of creeps in my inbox??

Funnily enough, when we went to investigate the next day, we noticed the light wasn't even directly pointing at our house. You can see it in the photo, it's pointed to the right (although our house extends to the right side of this photo). This was enough proof to us it was never done with any bad intentions. The brightness of this light is just out of this world. It has the strength of a 1000 suns.

Luckily, even before we had seen this, we decided to start civilised, and to just ask. These homeowners live somewhere else, this house is rented out weekly by tourists. Another reason for them to not know.
When we asked another neighbour whom we have good contact with for his number he said: "oh well good luck, they're not easy to deal with". Which had us kind of worried.

We called them, told them and the first thing they said was: "oh really?! I'm so sorry!!" They were so apologetic. They told us to just move the light down / another way. And we did. Problem solved. We pointed the light down, the home owner apologised a couple of times and everything is good. Except for since we moved the light down, it became a disco light and flickers every ten seconds. But I'm sure we'll find a solution for that too.

Thanks everyone for your passion and aggression. Sorry for the boring, non dramatic ending.

I tend to pack fairly light or try to. Other people in my family… not so much.

*edit* holy shit, just made it to our destination and wow this post blew up! So the coffee snob in my family prefers these beans. They have tried many different kinds, including local roasted and some plenty more expensive. But this one is their favorite. It’s not like I can say no, your favorite is wrong. lol.

p.s all the flair options are things like “go to your room, my mom said I could post..etc” and I have no idea which one my post qualifies for, I’m sorry lol

Both of us are physicians and we're both clearly identified as such when we responded to a medical emergency in flight. True medical emergency were we were conferring the entire flight about possibly diverting the flight, medically managing the patient, and we were met by paramedics on the ground.

The flight attendant took both of our information including titles and medical specialties. Of course my boyfriend gets greeted as Dr and the I get called Ms which happens all the time in the hospital due to bias of women in medicine.

We checked our AAdvantage accounts and neither has Dr. Listed in our profiles.

Mildly infuriating to say the least.

Especially to all the women physicians who get called Miss or nurse in the hospital.

(The second pic is an example pic I grabbed off the internet bc I already took the tip off to demonstrate it to family) - first pic shows how well my new pen writes when the tip is off.

So I’ve had a family member throw away my pens (just learned this) when they didn’t write. They didn’t realize that there was a clear tip (or red tip on some) to keep the ink protected. This is mildly infuriating to me because I bought a few packs over the course of this year (watched for sales and got the nice gel ink ones too sometimes).

Ive put them in various spots around the house from desk, to dressers to bedside table because I love writing and it’s nice to be able to grab a writing pen (went through years when 1/2 the pens were out of ink lol) to write down things when inspiration hits.

I’ve been scratching my head trying to figure out where my pens are going. Even blaming my two littles (1 & 4) lol thinking they must have a stash somewhere. Turns out, another family member tried to use them (a lot) and each time they didn’t write (because they didn’t take the tip off), they just tossed them.

It’s not a huge problem, just mild lol but thankfully I’ve caught the issue and showed them the tip thing so they can watch for it in the future…

Knicks fans now this

Is it just me not feel like it’s kind of weird? This is not from multiple showers. This was her design for one shower

For context in 18 and I’m living at home while in college. To make more money my mom rented out our spare room to an American lady.

I got some cider yesterday but I didn’t drink it all. I bought three bottles and only had one so I had the other two in my room. The drinking age where I live is 18.

Normally I close the door to my room but I must have left it open yesterday. The American woman looked into my room, saw the bottles and probably thought I was underage drinking.

I wasn’t in the house when she told my mom but when I came back this afternoon my mom sat me down and told me to maybe cut back on having and consuming alcohol because it upsets the American lady.

I don’t normally drink copious amounts of alcohol either, I might have one or two beers/ ciders at the weekend but that’s it.

It’s a bit of a ridiculous request but I also find it funny.
