Random Fail: First World Problems

[Krazy]

And that's why I called in today. I can drive in the snow fine, it's the other drivers that fuck everything up. I hope the Prius is met with swift justice.

[Tokitoki]

My office was closed yesterday so I didn't have to deal with it yesterday.

Today even with the roads mostly clear the drivers are still ass.

but did that person get to work 5 mins early?

[Melena]

Woke up at some ungodly hour in the morning to a horrible cramp in my calf muscle. They don't happen often, but it seems to almost always be early morning, always the left calf muscle, and always about a 10 on the pain meter. Shit feels like the muscle is being torn while someone jabs a red hot poker through it.

[Krazy]

That happens to me once in a while, I think it might be not getting enough potassium.

[Boyiee]

Probably need more potassium. Eat more spinach. I had to resort to trisalts and nusalt to add extra straight potassium to my diet for a while because I was cramping every night/morning.

[Ksandra]

It's a Charley horse and I get them fairly regularly. When I was pregnant it happened almost nightly (potassium didn't help though I hear it does for a lot of people). Trick I learned is to stand up when it happens and it goes away instantly. Takes a bit to train you brain to do it in the middle of the night though.

[Anoat]

Drink a glass of water before bed to stay hydrated through the night.

[Astylla]

I've been trying to figure out this horrible smell in my kitchen for 3 days, figured it was something in my sink drain or the trash. Cleansed everything still fucking persisted then noticed under my spices a slimy liquid. I thawed out chicken earlier in the week and it some of the liquid must have fucking spilled out.

Had to remove each spice bottle and scrub the shit out of everything but I think it's gone now, yuck.

So riding home coming up to an intersection dude races up behind me and immediately makes a right turn right in front of me. Of course I ride assuming people are fucking crazy like that and have already slowed some so I can cross the intersection after he finishes his turn... except half way into the turn right when he is completely blocking my path forward he comes to a complete stop in the middle of the fucking intersection and just sits there and waits until the light turns yellow then completes the turn. One of these days I'm gunna start bashing in cars

Welcome to the Bay Area where you only have to prove you can drive for 15 minutes lol.

[dasva]

That goes a bit beyond not knowing how to drive. Coming to a complete stop mid turn in an intersection for absolutely no reason.... shit had to be on purpose.

[Astylla]

Well yeah obviously but you know my comment still stands. I stopped trying to figure out people years ago.

Same in NYC.

Also not getting tested on busy streets or the highway is standard.

They pretty much just hand you a license and wait for you to get your first tickets.

The trick is to lift your toes upwards until you feel a release in the muscle. You'll still have a numbing pain but it should go from a 10 to a 3. Also drink some water before you go to sleep.

Pull on said toes and stretch further if need be.

DRINK MORE FUCKING WATER BG!

[Tokitoki]

I drink so much water.

In addition to the several cups at work, I drink a glass immediately after getting home, another glass as I let the dog out/putz around/play with the dog, have a water bottle with me on my bike, a glass in addition to the water bottle after I'm done on the bike, a glass as I make dinner, a glass or two with dinner, a glass before bed. I'm only home for about 4 hours before I go to bed. After all that I still go through 2-3 glasses of water while I'm in bed.

And I never have to pee. My body is weird.

I'm at about a gallon a day. Good equilibrium for me.

About 2 liters of it is Polar seltzer.
