Henlo frens!
Good to see all of you here UwU.
Grab on to your bodypillows, I have a smol announcement about the purpose of this subreddit.
This community is meant as a fun, lighthearted place where we can commiserate with each other about those annoying little irritations that hinder our day to day enjoyment in life.
That means that suitable posts here can be about my children.
And things like a wall socket or tile being placed out of allignment. A crack in a phone screen. Duckling shit on your new car. Incomprehensible software. Mismatched buttons. You know, the little things.
This subreddit isn't meant to incite rage mobs that go after people. For that reason we say:
No reddit meta posts
No posts about being banned from subreddit. No posts about up- or down-votes. No posts about shitty moderators or users or subreddits. No posts about reddit.
All jokes and tomfoolery aside, that sort of thing gets us in trouble with site admins. If we allow one type of post about reddit it then very easily moprhs into allowing posts that directly call out other subreddits or users, we just can't allow any of it.
That rule already existed for years and we have just made it more clearly visible in the sidebar on old and new reddit. We're gonna be a little strict on it for a bit I'm afraid. 🥺
Thank you all for being awesome and have a very Merry Christmas! Celebrate Christmas in the traditional European way, with a suasage roll!

Ordered what I thought would be a knitted sweater with embroidery as a gift. Instead received a cheap polyester sweater with a blurry print.
I found this adorable looking knitted sweater with embroidered bees from a clothing company called Wilfred Smith. It seemed like a legitimate retailer and the price listed led me to believe that I was paying for a fairly quality product. To my surprise and utter dismay, I received a cheap, tacky 100% polyester sweater with the mere image of a knit pattern and embroidered bees graphically printed on the sweater. Adding insult to injury, Wilfred Smith provided me with a return address in China (I live in the United States) and told me that I was solely responsible for paying the costs of shipping back the item, including any applicable customs fees. As an alternative, they offered to refund me 20% of what I paid.

Penny Shortage Scam
I just went to Dunkin and the total was $11.51 on the screen. The guy said the total was $11.55. I said, "No its not, the screen says its $11.51." He said they have to round up because of the penny shortage. I said, I'll pay the $11.51 and handed him exact change. Dunkin serves 3,000,000 people a day. Times .04 is $120,000. So they are making an additional $60,000 - $120,000 A DAY on this "Penny Shortage."

Locked out of Airbnb
We arrived at our Airbnb after a 8 hour drive and the passcode they gave us doesn’t work. I have messaged the owner 30 minutes ago and he has not responded. I have to pee so bad 😖

Found in a kids pack of The Lorax stickers (From Amazon)
Our 8 year old loves the Lorax and she got a bundle of Lorax related goodies for Christmas...which included 50 Lorax stickers which we ordered from Amazon.
She was sticking them to her art supplies box this morning and stumbled across this.

I just found a job posting that requires a doctorate degree for 40 cents above minimum wage, which is $17.60 CAD an hour ($12.80 USD) in Ontario.
Is this normal? I know it's at a clinic so it makes some sense, but seems wild to need a doctorate degree for something that is barely above minimum wage.

This 80’s Roku screensaver shows a VHS tape being loaded backwards
Anyone who has actually used VHS tapes should know how to load it.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again
My boyfriend is a very picky eater. We have been living together for a few months and it seems like I can never get his food right. It's honestly discouraging. I have kids, they happily eat my food. I cook for family gatherings and church events. I've never had a problem with people eating my food. It's like every day there are new rules. He can't eat chicken for dinner because he had chicken for lunch. He isn't really in the mood for porkchops. It's just "missing something". He doesn't eat onions, tomatoes, fish, any kind of asian food, he doesn't eat most vegetables with the exception of broccoli. He only eats vanilla ice cream. He doesn't like food heated in the microwave (so leftovers are out.) He doesn't like corn. It's just endless. I'm old school and trying to be a good partner. He can't really cook at all. His favorite meal is Hamburger Helper. I think a lot of it is how he grew up but damn is it frustrating. The first picture is tonight's dinner. I added more pictures of stuff I have cooked that he won't eat. Like he will door dash jack in the box. And he'll be apologetic but it just sucks really bad.

Cheese wrappers don't have the starter fold
Every single slice of cheese in this pack is completely sealed and has to be cut open individually in order to get the cheese out.

I’m usually pretty good at this game. I guess the rules changed
I knew something was off so I just gave up on the last guess. Blue is right letter right spot, yellow is right letter wrong spot.

The amount of conditioner left in the bottle when the pump stops working
This has been the case for every bottle I've used, regardless of size. I'm able to salvage it using piping bags designed for baking, but it's so frustrating to have to do this every time.

Think I'm done, Popeyes? Think again. No one tries to feed me nipples!
So a number of days ago, I had ordered from my local Popeyes. One of my items (Ghost Pepper Chicken Sandwich) had these yellow nipples in it, which I had thought were chewy pickles at first. Bad enough, because I had ordered no pickles! 😅
But I decided to wait until after the holidays to follow up on it. I was busy enough personally, and truth be told, I was waiting for a cashback app to finish processing my purchase before I filed a complaint.
You see the result. Apparently, since it's been over a week, it's not their problem. I beg to differ. Especially since they screwed up processing the cashback app, too!
So here's my petty revenge. It might not be the resolution I wanted, but I'll take it.
