    Amazon. I ordered two things the other day. They sent the wrong thing for one of them and didn't deliver the other (although it says delivered). 😑

    When people I don’t know message “what are you up to?” Or “how are you doing”

    What the hell are you even talking about?

    Loosely translated: are you naked and may I say perverted things to you?

    😂😂

    I usually feel like it’s gonna be “I have this amazing pyramid scheme supplement I want to scam you with and you strike me as dumb enough to fall for it”

    The ad in the right margin that says "Ask a expert now".

    No. When your command of English is so deplorable, you are NOT an expert in anything.

    When people don’t check the other tabs on the spreadsheet despite being notified of the existence of said tabs in literally every prior email.

    Two things:
    1) I’ve only been awake for four hours and my plans for healthy eating have already been thrown out of the window. Didn’t go to the grocery store this week because I’m supposed to house-sit for my parents starting this morning and planned to eat lunch over there. Now their flight got delayed until this evening and I don’t even have the ingredients to make a sandwich for lunch so I have to figure out something for that.

    2) I’m sitting here trying to come up with busywork at my job because the work that I actually need to do can’t be done until someone else does their job. So who’s the one who gets to rush like mad throwing things together before this meeting tomorrow? This happens literally every month. The same person is the holdup. The managers are fully aware of this and do nothing about it.

    How many times must person #1 ask person #2 if they need both signatures for a document and how many times must person #2 tell person #1 the document isn't being filed without both until person #1 realizes THIS is the hill they're willing to die on (because the count is up to 4 now)?

    Nothing good can come from that (the watching, not the intervention) 😁

    That even in Oklahoma where oil wells are everywhere, the news organizations do a pisspoor job of researching facts.
    Yesterday a pumping unit located about 1.5mi from my house broke a rod or something and sprayed some “fluid” around for literally about 4-5mins.
    All the “fluid” was contained on location and in no way threatened anyone unless you stood and drank it.
    The news told people in the area to Shelter in place.
    Totally ridiculous.
    Of course the local news channel I saw it on is not owned by an Ok company so I shouldn’t expect the truth.
    It does irk me though.
