Shit that annoys you

[evdog]

Fooled me once a couple days ago with a beer guyser all over my desk. Opened one tonight over the sink. It wanted to blow but careful opening resulted in slow release of bubbles for 20min instead.

A company I used to work for had a lot of fortune 500 level companies as customers, and more than a few of those had proprietary vendor management systems where vendors would have to log in and create the PO/invoice themselves. Without fail these systems were unnecessarily complex and if you made any mistake it would get rejected. It could drag on approval and payment for weeks or months because customer would deem that payment terms began when the invoice was approved in their system, not when software title transferred per the contract. They were basically using this to fuck with vendors. Mysteriously some invoices took a long ass time to get approved... Not sure how small vendors were able to deal with it.&amp;nbsp; And yeah sometimes they would take a discount if it was paid within their system generated payment terms.</span></p>

Seriously. We are in the saddest, stupidest, timeline.

I saw some real driving prowess today. First a minivan cut maybe a foot in front of my car in order to take an exit off of I-5. Then about a mile down the road on a surface street this same person used the left turn lane to go straight through a red light that others had stopped for. I had been keeping an eye on the vehicle because I just knew they'd do something else stupid within a matter of minutes.

Portland General Electric keeps emailing me and asking me to opt into their peak time events so they can adjust my thermostat down to help manage demand for electricity. But we have an NG furnace as our auxiliary heat source and haven't run the heat pump for weeks.

Hope you’re okay.

I hate MRIs. You’re stuck in a tight tube with a dozen monkeys beating on it with hammers…or something like that.

[Buzzworthy]

Oh that sounds fantastic. I gotta call tomorrow to schedule one as well.
Hope things turn out well for ya Thaleia

^ Hope you’re okay too Buzz.

AD--obviously the guy ran the red light because he thought you were chasing him.

With those people, I just assume they are fucked up on drugs, running from a crime, or have a legit emergency to attend to. In all those cases, its best to just keep your distance and hope they dont hurt anyone driving like that...they likely have a lot less to lose than everyone else on the road. I don&#39;t even get mad or annoyed, i just SMH and try to give them a wide berth.

I let my dog out before bed and he usually gives a couple quick paws at the door to be let back in (its a glass door and his nails make it easy to hear). Last night i let him out, go back to watching TV for a couple minutes and my wife opened the door, and then turned the lights off on the outside porch, so i thought she had let my dog back in. I went back to watching TV and then go upstairs about an hour later... no dog. Fuck. Turns out, my wife had not let the dog back in (he must have been off sniffing something), and when she turned the light off on the porch my dog decided it would rather sleep out in the snowy/muddy yard than the on the covered porch where there are dry couches... so i go to get him and he trots up all happy to see me sopping wet and muddy. great.

OG Vertical Cut Freeride has finally succumbed. Only now finding out these have been discontinued for like six years. It’s honestly like losing a friend.


Edit to add: WTF is wrong with this forum?

The weird thing was they weren't otherwise driving excessively fast or recklessly. It just seemed like every couple minutes they needed to do something crazy on principle.

Trying to potty train Bjorn is a PITA. During the day I take him out every 2 hours and every 3 at night. The little fucker goes out with me in the day, we hang out for 15+ minutes, doesn't pee so we go in for him immediately pee on the Travertine. WTF? Maybe longer periods (3 hours like at night)?

Ha!

[old goat]

Bjorn is a dog, kid, brother in law, grandfather?

Well, the Swedes do have to pee indoors during their never-ending Winters.

My company is in the process of upgrading all SharePoint sites to M365. Prior to the upgrade if you didn&#39;t have access to a particular site it would throw up a page saying you don&#39;t have access and gave the option to contact the site admin to request access. After the upgrade I got a page saying I don&#39;t have access and to contact the site admin with no option to send them a request. How the hell am I supposed to you who the site admin is if I don&#39;t have access? Nice Catch-22, Microsoft!</p>

Haven’t had the missionaries come by in forever. Poor souls showed up today. After our conversation I’m sure I’m going back on the do not knock list.

But I found something odd. Asked them flat out why they don’t respect someone’s no soliciting sign on the door. They told me they are not soliciting, they are canvassing.

“Sorry kids, your fucked up cult is playing word games with you. Fuck off with that bullshit. And tell the rest of your cult to leave me the fuck alone.”

Hopefully I’m good for at least another year.

Cults are fucking annoying.
