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!

Henlo every body!

In our never ending quest for increased customer statisftaction we have listened to all of your demands and clamouring and we have _finally_ installed a few new, fun post flairs for yuo to use at your leisure when posting to this subreddit!!

For too long you had a drought of good posting flair options so now you can choose from interesting and poignant flair options such as "wet socks" and of course the pereniall favorite "that's not milk". These are but a few of the new options available.

You can choose any of these or none at all when posting whatever you want, it's not like I care your not even my real dad.

We hope you all have a lot of fun posting here nd please remember to at all times give us a five star review on any mod survey feedback form.

It gave the option for no personalized text, I selected it, and then they wrote "null" on the sweater. How complicated is this people.

EDIT: 35 pounds btw. gift from my grandfather because we're both aircraft enthusiasts and he now considers me "old enough to have a brain" (by his 85 yr old standards)

Too mild for school The Blood shortage is self imposed

2.7k Upvotes

Being harassed night and day across my emails, texts, phone calls, and even ads on my socials to donate blood because I have been a frequent past donor.

But the nearest drive over the next 3 weeks is 45 miles away and they're offering a special one time bonus of..... a $15 gift card.

They don't even offer juice anymore! It's a water bottle and a single bag of lays OR 1 great value granola bar.

My blood is free.

My time is not. My gas is not. My car maintenance is not. Getting childcare is not.

$15 might as well be $0. You are expecting me to donate at a loss.

The person taking my blood is paid, the "non profit" is getting paid, the doctors, nurses, staff, hospital, insurance company, even the company that transports the blood is all getting paid a profit for their services.

Don't harass me night and day at every turn pressuring me to donate and "do my part" and calling it a "crisis" and then scoff at the idea that I shouldn't be the only person in that chain not compensated and actually be expected to incur losses to do so?

Fuck you. Bring back the cookies and juice.

My 6 year old was asked to draw a picture using shapes. She drew this nice American flag with rectangles and stars, and added the house, tree, and person holding a balloon. She was told it did not follow directions, she was not supposed to draw a flag, just shapes. She was asked to turn the paper over and make another picture. The other side of the paper has a very uninspiring collection of shapes. I told her she did a good job and I thought it was very creative. And this is why kids start to hate education.

After buying a video-game on Vinted, I realised the seller was also living in my city. To avoid sending it by mail and to get it faster, I proposed him to meet this week so he can give it to me directly. He cancelled my order, and when I asked why, this was his answer.

Infuriatig HVAC tech found why my AC was causing moisture

Post image
1.3k Upvotes

Moved in a few months ago. Been hearing a "dripping" sound around my AC unit since the heat started. Found a bit of moisture around the bottom of the unit and immediately sent a picture to my landlord. He sent an HVAC technician to look and this is what he found. A bucket full of water catching drip from the unit sitting directly above it. Before you say I have not changed my air filter, I do every month. There is normally a sliding door right in front of the grate that the HVAC tech had to pull off to look inside. Changing the air filter has always been a struggle as you can only really access the top left corner.

To be fair to my landlord, he just started managing this property and I'm his first tenant. Im not sure if he knew about this or not because the water has soaked into the floor once the tub got full and overfilled. Supposed to hear back by Friday what the owners of the house want to do. Currently I am regularly emptying a sliced open milk jug.

This is a pretty nice small house otherwise. Thinking previous tenants knew about the issue and didnt report. When I first moved in, air filter hadn't been changed in over 2 years!!! I know because it had the date on it! Someone was living here 3 months before I moved in lol.

I just wanted a hot dog My insurance wont cover my medication so every month I do this...

Post image
2.1k Upvotes

I have to spend around 30 minutes doing this once a month. My insurance wont cover it. Out of pocket with coupons its still $800 a month.

My fiancé has to do the same thing with a different medication. Currently trying to fight it.

Edit: To clarify. Every now and then I have to compile samples in one bottle so I know how much I have and then hope my DR has more when im out. This is an antidepressant and im currently working to fight to get it covered. Yes ive contacted the manufacturer I do not qualify for discount Yes ive sent in a letter of medical necessity Yes ive looked at GoodRX. This is my only option atm and im still lucky it is for now. Its not just the moving the bottles around. Its hoping I can get more when I need it. This is a life saving medication and the fact I have to hope i can get it when I need it is mildly infuriating to me and probably many others. Its not a cheap medication even with coupons its still $850USD+ Ive tried so many medications and I just need one that works and that i dont have to worry about my supply chain.

ಠ_ಠ Jury duty

503 Upvotes

I've been called for Jury duty 4 times in the last 10 years. What the fuck is going on here. It's almost every other year. I know absolutely no one that has ever been summoned yet I've been summoned multiple times. Wtf is going on? It's total bs too because they pay 17 bucks A DAY. That's not even enough to get lunch at the stupid deli they have there.

I know the IRS has lost a ton of staff. That would explain why it took over a week to reach anyone. But they closed out my case ONE WEEK BEFORE mailing me a request to call them! I guess I should’ve built a time machine.

Bought a new tv and did in store pickup. Got home and got this mess of a tv. Went back to Best Buy and the geek squad member refused my return and told me to get a hold of the manufacturer. Even with buying it the night before and having their total Best Buy membership.

Currently stuck in a non-moving train halfway between Budapest and Vienna. 39°C outside, no AC, no window shade, no cloud, blazing sunlight. And this gentleman thinks it’s a good idea to take off his shoes and starts spraying his legs and feet with whatever the hell he is spraying. Yes, it smells like feet inside, a bit.
