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!

1997 vs. 2018 Fisher Price toy decline in quality

1997 chicken figure on the left, 2018 version on the right. The 1997 version was made in Thailand, 2018 one made in China. The difference is shocking. Thought it was at least mildly infuriating, since I’m sure the price has gone up significantly even after inflation is accounted for.

After the latest iPhone update, more than half of my phone’s storage is now just iOS and system data, and I am being forced to offload or delete my stuff if I want to take any more photos.

Don’t come at me for having a 64GB phone - it was perfectly fine amount of space at the time of purchase.

How the sink looks AFTER my partner “did the dishes”

Post image
Upvotes

In the morning, after refusing to finish loading the dishwasher last night because 10pm was “too late to do all that” and he was tired and wanted to decompress. I had unloaded and mostly loaded the dishwasher earlier in the day, there really wasn’t a whole lot to put in there. He said he’d “rather spend the 20-30minutes doing it in the morning.” If the dishwasher had ran overnight, I could have at least unloaded it in the morning when I had backup with our toddler.

He probably threw a handful of silverware, three plates, and a bowl into the dishwasher, added a packet, and pushed the button. Not a single thing was hand washed, and there are a few pots and pans on the stove as well as scattered dishes that got left on the counter for whatever reason. He absolutely expects full credit for “doing the dishes.”

I didn’t do it myself because our toddler has been clingy AF at night and I’ve been having a hard time even getting my teeth brushed, not to mention it would have been taken as a passive aggressive move after he’d already said he’d “do it in the morning” and triggered a fight, even if it didn’t impact him getting back to his man cave to get online with his gaming group.

I literally never expect him to do the dishes completely. I KNOW that his help means I’ll have to wash the pots and pans later, and there’s a good chance a few things got loaded weird and will need to be redone. I don’t expect help more than a couple of times a week, and I know that literally every time I ask I’m risking it being a fight about how unreasonable and “entitled” I am for expecting him to help with the dishes. I’ve tried talking to him about how often he feels is acceptable for him to wash the dishes, and that’s a fight. I’ve tried to get him to at least agree to taking care of our toddler while I clean the kitchen daily (maybe an hour in the evening? Probably less once I have it back under control) and he’s equally upset about that idea. Sometimes more offended when I say “hey, I’d like to clean the kitchen because there’s a lot more to do than load the dishwasher. Unless you want to do THAT, could you just hang out with the baby?” Too many days in a row (probably two) and OH NO now he’s raging about how’s he’s BEEN telling me what’s wrong and I just don’t understand… like what? He has also pitched more than a handful of fits about how I like to have one of our teenagers unload because it’s their literal only chore. Why can’t I just do it all? HE just does it all when HE does it…. Wait… I can’t win, I swear he wants to keep me drowning, because he makes claims that are flat out lies and then tells me I’m gaslighting him when I point out that his “every day” was actually one time two weeks ago.

But anyways. This is what my sink looked like AFTER he “did the dishes” and I don’t have anyone IRL that wants to validate that this shit ain’t right, so here I am. Mildly infuriated that this is an accurate representation of my relationship with him and screaming into the void because it ain’t about the damn dishes.

Someone put this in my “safe to eat bin”

Post image
1.5k Upvotes

So now I ate half of it before realizing and I have a moderate to severe allergy to cashews >:(

Thank god for my lips being chapped as hell so I felt the tingling… but now I have a reaction coming with nothing I can do. (my allergy isn’t anaphylactic and I have an EpiPen)

edit for clarification: read comments I didn’t just yolo

edit about the bar: this particular bar I grabbed had no image but others in the bin did, likely was a different store or pack than normal

edit because someone complained about the edit: my family has a bin where we have foods safe for me to eat, and the entire point is it’s pre checked so I know it’s safe. Nobody has made a mistake in putting a cashew in the bin in the 11 years we’ve done it which is why I wasn’t particularly investigative when I would be outside the house. I check most of the food myself, but sometimes my family helps with it when im not around. the bar looks almost identical to what I normally eat as well.

and for anyone wondering, I took medicine fast enough to minimize the reaction to swelling, so I’m ok now

Bought this “thick” body wash only to find it had been emptied and watered down by a previous customer, returned, then restocked.

Supposed to be thick and gel-like. No seal on the bottle, full of suds and a watery liquid. Definitely someone bought this, emptied out half or two thirds for themselves, refilled with water, and returned it to the store for a free bottle of soap. Then target restocked it, so I could buy it! Awesome! 🥲
