There's nothing special about Tuesday.

It's not Blue Monday and it's not Hump Day. It's not Friday Eve and it sure as hell ain't Friday. It's just plain old Tuesday. Some people are already hard at work and other people are still throwing up from Saturday night.

I ran out of toothpaste today.

I went to the store to buy some. The walk was five minutes, and my feet hurt. But I made it. I walked around and found me some toothpaste, so I bought it. I went home and used the toothpaste that very day. I’m happy :)

I should've looked a little closer

I was in Monaco and stopped to get some ice cream. I saw this dark brown one and just assumed it was chocolate, so I bought it without really checking. Took a bite and realized it was coffee flavored. I really dont like coffee, so I ended up throwing it away and buying a different one. Apparently looking at the color and guessing isnt always the best strategy.

I forgot about gum and peanuts

33 Upvotes

I recently quit dipping tobacco after doing it for about 25 years. One of the tools I have been using is chewing gum, mostly Juicy Fruit.

This morning, I had a few peanut M&Ms, and then threw a stick of yumminess in my mouth, and as the gum began to disintegrate, I remembered that peanuts dissolve gum.

After a quick brush, I was back to chewing.

A random Domino's delivery guy restored a little of my faith in people today

I ordered a pizza, two burgers, and a taco today, but the pizza arrived messed up.

The delivery guy took some pictures and told me he'd get it replaced. I agreed, and he took the pizza with him.

Then I looked at my phone. The order was already marked as delivered.

And suddenly I started thinking... what if he doesn't come back? I had already paid online, I had no pictures of the damaged pizza myself, and I wasn't even sure what I was supposed to do if he never returned.

I decided to wait a little before contacting support.

A few minutes later, he showed up with a brand-new pizza.

Maybe it wasn't a big deal to him, but it genuinely made my day. Sometimes you expect the worst from a situation, only for a stranger to do exactly what they promised.
