garlics that have little green garlic sprouts in the middle

garlics that when peeled reveal tiny garlics within that also must be peeled

The girl formerly on my Facebook feed, now hidden, that used the word "awesomesauce" in a different status update for six consecutive days.

that and "I'm totally cereal" or "I just threw up a little in my mouth" SHOULD BE BANNED WITH PENALTY OF BEHEADING

or 'super cereal'. I have two friends (who are sisters) who I love to death but that is their only flaw, saying that.

I have that tingly feeling right now that I've mentioned this before in the thread.

having a review of mine edited so there is now an exclamation mark at the end of the sentence which was edited; consequently it now has the feel of being written by a 16-year-old on a creative writing course

also, when people want some generic musical symbols to put on their comic/greetings card/poster and get the notes back to front

I don't know why this bugs me, I can't even really read music (no more than anyone else who had piano lessons age 6)

The new IE on our work computers that now doesn't work with any of the websites on which I need to fill out forms. This thing is constantly crashing.

My local bakery that sells out of 75% of its goods by mid-afternoon - cannot even get a loaf of bread in there. Understandable if it's a store that gets 1x delivery a day but guys you're a bakery, BAKE SOME MORE.

- horizontal scroll bars

blood on this hand (onimo), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 09:32 (fifteen years ago)

oh yeah, horizontal scroll is just plain wrong!

I hate it when I decide to wear a jacket, and then after about 5-10 minutes I realise it's really warm and muggy, and I can't be bothered to turn back and take my jacket home, and will just have to live with the vague resentment I now feel toward my jacket.

When you are in a long line at a busy establishment and the cashier hands you back your credit card along with some frequent customer card or coupon, with the receipt wrapped around them both forcing you to make one of two choices - hold up the line while you untangle everything to put your card back in the proper location in your wallet/purse or just shove the whole wad in your pocket to get out of the way, only to forget where you put the card later and have a minor heart attack when you can't find it.

who the fuck does that

coffeetripperspillerslyricmakeruppers (Latham Green), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 19:22 (fifteen years ago)

Happens at food places all the time it seems.

the fey bloggers are onto the zagat tweets (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 19:23 (fifteen years ago)

I do that all the time...but I have never lost a card. I usually carry a huge bag around with wallet in it and keep my essential cards squirreled away in another location or wallet or even pocket in case of wallet theft. Wallet has stuff like SS card, business cards. For more formal occasions like dinner, work related, I use the wallet. Sounds unprofessional but shit my dad and mom always used the "two wallet" solution.

So Folkloric (u s steel), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 19:31 (fifteen years ago)

I would get IA if the cashier handed each item back separately and gave the recipient time to put each in its final destination. Do your sorting out of the line, people are waiting!

nickn, Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:00 (fifteen years ago)

DO YOU NOT HAVE SWIpE STATIOMNS INYOUR TOWNE!!

coffeetripperspillerslyricmakeruppers (Latham Green), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:08 (fifteen years ago)

Gas stations and cheap ass fast food places have those, but not everwhere.

I'm not expecting waiting time nickn, I just get IA when the cashier takes the extra step of wrapping the receipt around my card!

the fey bloggers are onto the zagat tweets (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:10 (fifteen years ago)

Pay with cash, iirc

mh, Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:14 (fifteen years ago)

Not really any speedier because it seems too many cashiers have no idea how to make change.

the fey bloggers are onto the zagat tweets (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:15 (fifteen years ago)

pay with fucken bitcoins!

coffeetripperspillerslyricmakeruppers (Latham Green), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:16 (fifteen years ago)

Then they hand you a receipt and put the change on top. You can wind up with about five change parcels after a trip to the shops.

My response to a receipt wrapped around a card is PA but I always calmly unwrap, put the receipt in the bag with the purchase and return the card to my wallet before leaving the 'transaction space'. I want the cashier to register 'don't do that'.

chavatar (suzy), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:18 (fifteen years ago)

why dont you turn around, lower trou and ask that they place it in your ass cracke?

coffeetripperspillerslyricmakeruppers (Latham Green), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:21 (fifteen years ago)

Wrapping everything together gives you a secure packet for stuffing in your shirt pocket, for later disposition.

nickn, Wednesday, 15 June 2011 20:27 (fifteen years ago)

Some stores have rules about handing the receipt to the customer or at least asking if they want to hold it or have it in the bag. Anyway, receipt and change preference Is as classic an argument as TP over or under, and there is no consensus on either.

Jesse, Wednesday, 15 June 2011 22:32 (fifteen years ago)

'i want to hold the receipt and never let it go'

Just catching the inside hem of your trousers with a toe/toenail, and very slightly ripping the hem, so that each subsequent time you put on the trousers, the same thing happens, making the situation worse.

It's also one of those things that you only remember when it happens and instantly forget until the next time it happens.

i have a rip around the knee in my jeans that is like that.

my penis keeps catching it

Gary Numan, or Gary Fletcher (ken c), Thursday, 16 June 2011 13:19 (fifteen years ago)

It is because we're meant to believe his penis is long, do you see?

the fey bloggers are onto the zagat tweets (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 16 June 2011 13:20 (fifteen years ago)

no

coffeetripperspillerslyricmakeruppers (Latham Green), Thursday, 16 June 2011 13:26 (fifteen years ago)

His knee is very high up.

Mark G, Thursday, 16 June 2011 13:28 (fifteen years ago)

The tip of his penis has a sharp and jagged keratin growth.

Jesse, Thursday, 16 June 2011 13:37 (fifteen years ago)

It got caught in his zipper and fitted perfectly.
