Random Fail: First World Problems

[Coren]

My fail is that my wife scheduled her tonsilectomy for this morning, thereby ruining any cinco de mayo fun we may have otherwise had. Ugh.

[Zetanio]

She's on pain meds, you get drunk. I see only good things happening.

[Coren]

I think I'm supposed to be nearby and not-drunk enough to save her if she starts throwing up or bleeding too much, at least for the first few days.

Upon being asked if I want coffee today by a co-worker, this is what my brain did: "I don't want coffee. but maybe I should say yes? I might want coffee another time and if I don't agree to drink some today she might eventually stop making coffee. or if I want to make coffee another time she might not want any because I said I didn't want any this time, so then I couldn't make coffee because no one would drink it."

I just said no, of course. but I wanted to share this for the dual purposes of insight into and support of those who live with an anxious mind.

This, they will dig up shit you wouldn't even think about. I completely forgot about a fight I got into when I was 12yo cause the guy's dad decided an MRI was medically necessary after i whacked his son with a whiffle ball bat when he tried to beat up my little brother, then tried to sue us, and that came up on my background check. And this was for a civilian position.

I found that out when I was applying for the job I'm at now. They grilled me on theft in the polygraph over and over again. Turned out my old boss changed locks the day after I was let go, and had his office broken into. Only he never told the investigator about the lock change until after I was interviewed.

Contact your school and see if they can reissue a diploma. I know of a few people in the past that have gotten replacement ones after their originals had been damaged. It could just be a local thing, but you'd think educational institutions would be able to do that for it's alumni.

I tried, they said they outsource the diplomas and getting another one isn't an option.
I was told by staff to just tell the lady in charge of the paperwork that I can't follow directions properly, but a transcript is all I have. Somehow I just don't feel that they will understand "I cannot get a new one because outsourcing problems" will work either.

My problem is that I would answer no right away then mull it over and stress about the implications of saying no for the next couple hours after the damage is already done.

I have to eat my McNuggets like a god damned peasant because the staff at McDonald's forgot to give me my sweet & sour sauce. The worst.

I always ask for them again right at the window in the drive through. Their sweet and sour sauce is delicious and I don't trust them not to give me mine when they ask me at the order window

So I was in my Linux class tonight, and someone had a syntax error they called the "instructor" (I use that as a VERY loose term) over. As I looked over I saw he had a random "!" in a config file before a command. So the instructor says "that was just a nut on the keyboard is all".

I slowly tilt my head and turn with a (seriously.jpg) look on my face and say "nutted on the keyboard, huh?" and got back a "yeah, that is what they call it. At least I call it that". to which I laughed and said personally I try to avoid getting a nut on the keyboard, and ask if he even knows what that means (he is not an old guy). I then made a "bleeeuhkk" noise with a slight simultaneous closed fist to open hand gesture to illustrate the point.

Everyone then proceeded to indirectly tell me to stop posting and we all lived happily ever after.

Nah, people seem to like my nonsense in these monotonous daily aspects of life

This is serious shit. Mcnuggets are useless without sweet and sour sauce. At least you don't fail in the sauce of choice category.

[Zetanio]

No one PM'd me so I guess he stays the same.

you misspelled honey mustard

[Yuri-G]

close, but the correct answer is honey

well, "honey sauce" as it were

[Anoat]

you misspelled honey mustard

I love honey mustard. I do not love McDonald's honey mustard.
I love McDonald's sweet & sour sauce. I do not love anyone else's sweet & sour sauce.

I am a bundle of contradictions.

Still taking suggestions for Mildryan's new title. Rata's idea was bad.
