Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

I blame Spotify.

When I upload a playlist from a text file, I still have to create a spreadsheet, cut Column A, add Column C, then put it all back into a .txt.

And I thought making sure the song didn't finish after the tape head at the end of the side began was annoying, PHEW.

People who stomp their feet when walking in apartments. No self awareness at all

My in-laws all do this, when I tell them not to they seem to treat me as a meek little mousey Englishman who has to be constantly neurotically on guard about inconveniencing other people and basically it sucks to be me.

as someone who lived underneath brutal stompers, I would have been glad to have you as an upstairs neighbor

Even my 4 year old knows not to stomp because of downstairs neighbors. Got to start them young.

Good on you Jeff ^

Just witnessed a paying customer at a restaurant receive their order, tell the staff they got called into work and couldn't eat there or take it with them. Wtf. So I asked for it and gave it to a homeless person instead

^hero

the mint has issued new $5 and $10 notes that look exactly the same to colourblind people like me. good going, fuckwits.

WELCOME TO OUR WORLD.

that confused me so much when i was there. they don’t even look green to me, just sort of beige.

I got a $100 bill last year and it was blue!

I asked the bank teller, how long have they been blue?

And she was all, 2013?

People with multicolored money are the savages here imo

Learn to read numbers

fuck a number imo

I don’t see numbers or colors. I only feel the money. Money feels a certain way, you have to get to know it. Once you find the smell, the scent of money, well, you can go anywhere in the world. You can buy a watch band from a lady in Instanbul, at the market, hand her whatever you think it’s worth. She can hand you the change and you’ll know it’s right. And then in Kinshasa the week after, for a diamond, it’s no different! The secret is not giving a shit, because you’ve ripped so many other suckers off, it doesn’t matter how much the bullshit costs. You pay twice as much and that schmuck running the leather goods kiosk goes home an hour early to have a big dinner. Or get drunk and meet someone easy. The money doesn’t care what it does. It just needs to move around. That’s all money wants to do. Once you understand that, the scent makes sense, it comes naturally to you. Counting is for people like you. People who really understand money, we just smell.

to be fair, you have to have a very high iq to understand the colour of money

People talking before, during, or after eating about how it's okay to mix up the food on the plate because "it's all going to the same place"

Any talk of digestion process at table including announcement "I'm full" please just stop you have ruined everything

People who wheel empty or near-empty shopping carts/trolleys around the cramped Italian market in my neighbourhood. Do you need to take a cart if you are just going to buy a few slices of prosciutto and a small tub of olives? Do you not recognize how difficult the critical mass of empty carts makes it to move around the store effectively, both for yourself and others?

I often see the very frail, elderly neighbourhood residents using carts, which is fine. My problem is the fit and healthy 45-year-old airheads from outside the neighbourhood who drive in, park, wheel an empty cart around, bang it into my shin or ankle a few times, buy a few slices of prosciutto and a small tub of olives, then get back in their dumb European SUVs and promptly drive into the river because they were texting.

Oh and of course they race off way too fast down my street also.

Tellers who openly judge the food you're buying and suggesting something else is better. I know this is cheap and is shit just fuck off

people who want every gap in any literary or cinematic universe explained and fleshed out.

feel like if Godfather was being released for the first time nowadays, we'd have a goddamn Godfather 1.5 to explain what happened in the 5 years between Godfathers 1 and 2, and a prequel depicting Sollozzo and Barzini conspiring to kill Vito.

o sorry *spoiler alert*

People who give you direction at work and then later correct you for doing something they intentionally asked yli to do? Was it this topsy turvy land

*what is this

lol I had that happen last year. got asked to overhaul an existing process and was given the specifics of what they wanted the new one to look like, spent months drafting it, got it blessed by our account Execs, rolled it out...and then later this year, me and my project manager got chastised for not using the old process I'd just replaced with everybody's blessing.

wtf

in other words, u otm

in your case, do you have the original request they asked you to do written down/documented so you can hoist them by their own petard?

no, it's just usually a communication or instruction given impulsively like "can you go do this and make sure not do this one thing" so, sorry to be vague, but like if you don't do that "one thing", then they go "why didn't you do the one thing?"

a larger project seems more aggravating tbh

I've found most people in the workforce that are tasked with giving instructions should never be giving anybody instructions

always get receipts imo, make people document via email, or if they say it in an ad how meeting send an email later saying “so we agreed X and Y”

my manager is off the cuff in the same way I am, and we ran into problems this year when he gave a direction and it was misinterpreted by someone else. in that case, I pretty much jumped in and redid half a project in a couple days. in another case, he said one direction was good and by the time I did it he’d thought better but, luckily, he believed me because we live on the same level of bullshit

we should have kept things on the plan but tbh our agile method is being smarter than what we planned and it’s going to bite us worse if we don’t document

if they say it in an ad hoc meeting send an email later saying “so we agreed X and Y”


I hated having to start doing this with my own bosses last year

I've been doing that practice for about 7 years now. bulleted, even.

saved my ass more times than you can remember.

*than I

Well it’s true either way

thanks for correcting my autocorrect lads

corporate gaslighting is super common i guess, definitely had it happen to me countless times

I mean, I think that plays a factor but some people genuinely have no idea what they previously said and they think part of being a manager/leader is always being right. Which is genuinely the worse way to manage

People who bail on you multiple times and then feel like you owe *them* a make-up hangout

theatre actors (I've been saying this for 5 years tho)....

lol I was about to ask, but... yeah

I envy the socialization and community but I don't think I could ever fit in that scene, having had a glancing association

it's weird how I literally feel like I woke up one day and was like "wait how did I get lumped in with these people". I think it was easier when I didn't get subjected to their every thought on social media.

that and living with one too many who "couldn't pay rent" on time....

Graduate students

In my experience this is down to Spotify playlist generators doing it this way and me being too lazy to go back and change each entry.

oh I see pp already said that

there was a dude at the CoC show yesterday who clearly didn't seem to be enjoying proceedings, so he decided to leave. except he made it a point to shake his head in disapproval back and forth the entire time as he elbowed his way through about 100 people in the crowd. not once stopping his pronounced snoopshake as he walked the 100 feet out of the venue. so....that guy.

people who drink a Berocca every morning

I'm assuming you're all with me on this right?
