Things that are currently annoying you

Thanks! That's a neat site. I really appreciate it!

It doesn't say what to do with polyurethane other than "plastic" but it was a starting point. I've done some further googlage and have now ordered a professional shoe repair glue. I am not going to pay some snarky jerk $20+ to glue the soles back on my shoes when I can do it myself.

Some of these cobblers are not *wrong* when they say it would be cheaper to buy new shoes than to fix polyurethane shoes made in China, but...that's only true if you bought them in America and they're actually shitty PU.

I'm not sure why, but 95% of Japanese shoes are effectively vegan unless they have fur trim on them, which is usually fake but sometimes rabbit. These shoes are PU but they cost 50 dollars on sale plus shipping to the USA, but even if they had cost ten dollars, I have an ankle that was broken in a place they couldn't see on X-rays and told me was a sprain until they did an MRI, so I walked on it for six months before having surgery, and still have some pain from nerve damage that putting my ankle back together couldn't fix. Pretty shoes that do not hurt my feet are precious and dear.

 

This OS update is going to take 40 minutes and I can't back out of it. Goddamnit apple! High Sierra was supposed to be a low key update, why so slow :(

 

The power went out for 1/2 an hour last night, and now the heat doesn’t seem to be working. Also the pipe outside still hasn’t been fixed, and my dads just duct taped it.

 

oh my god, self, why won't you get up and /do something/

 

I really want a kitten but the council won't let me have animals that need to be taken outside through the common areas, and my sister's deathly allergic :( I don't live with her, but even hair on my clothes could leave her sneezing, it's pretty bad.

 

This is more terrifying than annoying. My mother messaged me out of nowhere on twitter to tell me she thinks I have aspergers. I haven’t talked to her in over 5 years because she threatened to shoot me and that’s why we had the guns removed from the house, and why I moved out. I’m so stressed out right now, I might just delete my Twitter. What if she tries to find me?

 

Block her. Invest in a PO box so it’s harder to find your physical address. Be safe.

 

More like things that make me die inside in frustration, confusion, and helplessness



I love having a special problem that the developers don't know how to fix :^)

I just wanna play games and get my moneys worth not just suffer

I'll try poking around maybe someday but the computer world is a landscape i'm just not familiar with

 

Lost a spoon down the back of the couch; have turned the couch over and over a couple times and the damn thing won't fall out!

ETA: Got it now! Phew.

 

I bought what I thought was a nice handmade clutch bag last month for about 45 to 50 dollars and it’s already coming apart. I’m so disappointed.

 

i was walking back to my dorm and some men in a red car yelled something at me. i couldn't quite make out what it was but it sounded vaguely like a homophobic slur

 

That one anti I follow because their non-discourse content is too good is being an asshat on my dash again >:(

 

I am regular civilian sick.

 

As opposed to what?

 

Spoiler: chronic Illness vagueness

As opposed to unexplained flaring from my chronic illness, or a worsening of that chronic illness. I can just take an antibiotic and chill.

 

I'm going to use that phrasing in the future, it's good

 

Why do I always forget my coat in the Tumor Board room?

At least today I got it back. I lost two jackets this year. One of which I really, really liked.

 

@Tea and Rain ah, I see. Thank you for the information, and sorry to hear that.

 

I scheduled an appointment to donate blood for the second time today, went in, and they promptly booted me back out to deal with rush hour traffic because my hematocrit was ONE POINT TOO LOW. -becomes a pillar of salt-

 

They're pretty strict about that, I've been ousted for exactly the same situation. :(
