Yippee-IA, Motherf***ers! IRRATIONALLY ANGRY PT. 2: Irrationally Angrier

^^^manager material

My computer keeps rejecting hard drives. Not sure why, maybe i need more memory but it's doing my head in. I transfer material over to a hard drive and then a while later the computer just pops up a ballon saying taht the drive is no longer usable.
Something fucked up going on here and I think it has possibly just lost me all he photos I've taken over the last year on a different drive. NOt sure if permanently or if reinstalling Windows would be the answer. If I did need to do that I would need to be able to transfer material off the central drive, but the computer keeps rejecting hard drives after I've set them up and got them running.

IA #1: I sliced my finger the other night chopping vegetables
IA #2: Took off the bandaid yesterday afternoon to air it out. Banged the fuck out of it, bled like a motherfucker all over again :(
IA #3: You try not using your index finger for anything. Grr
IA #4: Being down one typing finger sucks >:(

Getting breakfast, cereal flakes arranged in such a way that when milk is poured, it hits a big flat flake at the top of the bowl and just bounces right out and all over the counter

There seems to be no good inexpensive water filter product on the market anymore. We went through three Brita pitchers and all (different models) had the same problem with the actual pitcher falling apart, the lid not staying on etc. Then we switched to Pur, and the filters are so slow that after a week it seems to take about an hour for the pitcher to fill.

not sure whether i've mentioned the disgusting use of semicolons in place of colons but i'm SO stabby about this atm

Hurting: we've had one of these for a couple of years with no issues, I think because it has no complex moving parts. It's hard to find filters but we did the Amazon subscription for them, which is nice bc that is how I remember to change it.

Me too after it runs through a filter to get the weird taste that our house's old ass pipes add to it.

ass pipes

i think i know what the weird taste is

australians are having moods today

Ass pipes ass pipes
Whatchoo gonna do
Whatchoo gonna do when they pipe on you

That filter is too slow, I just drink pure tap.

When you're in a hotel, and housekeeping merely knocks, without saying 'housekeeping' or anything, and then without leaving even a moment to respond, attempts to walk in.

like...is the cursory 3-4 second pause in which I could offer a "please come back in an hour" or "ok" too long to wait?

Oh god, the number of times I've actually had to run and hide from overeager housekeeping because a simple "no thanks" is apparently too confusing. Two, that is the number of times.

I basically never want housekeeping to enter my room, maybe only once per hotel stay. I tell them this upfront and they still try and do it.

Last two places had signs saying "if you want fresh towels leave them on the floor, otherwise hang them on the rails". Great, now how should I indicate I don't need my bed made every day either?

place a drawing of the dude from Trainspotting in the middle of it

Are you putting the do not disturb sign on your doorknob? They're supposed to skip your room if that sign is there and come back to it later (if you ever take it down).

Some hotels have cards you can put on your bed telling housekeeping that they needn't change the sheets, but they will still make the bed.

I usually put the sign on my doorknob, but sometimes I forget. and sometimes they come really early. it wasn't even 9 am this morning. lord!

I had the double bolt locked tho so they couldn't get in.

yeah the do not disturb hanger has been around for like hundreds of years where you been ledge

then they call you and ask you "when can we changes yr sheets" and Louis CK gets angry

I put the sign out as soon as I get in my room and leave it up for the entirety of my visit. Sometimes it falls off though, sometimes it is completely ignored, and then sometimes they call you asking "ARE YOU SURE YOU DON"T WANT HOUSEKEEPING".

I usually am cool w/out it but I felt bad on my recent Baltimore trip as I got blood on the sheets (mosh pit injury not properly bandaged plus drunken stumbling).

Having someone come in and make the bed and straighten your room and bring you fresh towels PRN is like the heigh of luxury. You're all weird and filthy.

Weird and filthy and cuddly, damn it.

usually I'm fine w/out it because my average trip is 1-2 days. if I'm vacationing for a week, damn straight I'm having housekeeping

yeah I love housekeeping fairies. i don't like them waking me up but in general A+

most of my trips are business trips tho so often I'm out of the room before they even show up.

budget euro hotels unfamiliar with these advanced new world customs.

scrawl "NO FUKKING HOUSEKEEPING" on the outside of the door, in blood.

I remember that in Costa Rica the hangers say "Por Favor, No Me Moleste" -- do they say that in Spain too?

I usually am cool w/out it but I felt bad on my recent Baltimore trip as I got blood on the sheets (mosh pit injury not properly bandaged plus drunken stumbling).

I felt like a monster when I let housekeeping change my sheets that had stains from the Snickers bar I'd eaten in bed while drunk the night before. There should be a sign that says, It's just chocolate.

They then leave a similar sign that says "Whatever"

"10 hail marys and an our father. Is that what you want us to say?"

Scariest part of The Wall is that first scene where housekeeping comes down the hall with the vacuum and knocks on Pink's door.

I hope you USA-ians with soiled sheets left your housekeepers a nice tip when you checked out.

I assume that housekeeping tips are not done in other countries?

Cosmetics superstore Ulta is the worst for this I have ever seen. I bought ONE item and the receipt was all joking aside ten inches long.

Put any of my #nofilters up against this thing and you'll see! http://filterfakers.com/

oh i've gotten cvs receipts that have probably been a couple of feet long, no exaggeration

cvs receipts are terrible. safeway can be kinda nuts too
