OMG NO - Any light in the middle of the night ends up blinding me, not to mention that it would also disrupt my husband's sleep (though if I'm falling into the toilet because he left the seat up, he's going to be more than slightly disrupted) 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in fact a whole lot cheaper than the super-processed, pre-digested food-substitutes that a lot of people eat (>60% of the US' caloric intake, you guys are fricking scary sometimes). But hey, who cares about a few strokes or a bit of type-2 diabetes when there's pop-tarts and convenience. You must have access to different grocery stores than I do. I am glad you have the time to prepare your fresh food everyday before it goes bad and then time to do the dishes and relax a bit before bed. Convenient way to live, if you can do it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am lucky though - my husband does the dishes most of the time. We established a rule early in our relationship: Whoever cooks, the other one cleans up. I do most of the cooking, so he is usually the dish elf. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) Unfortunately, in the US, fresh fruits and vegetables are often not only expensive (relative to many other foods in the store), but most will not last a full week and many people do not have the time and/or ability to go to the store multiple times during the week.

While it "might" be questionable how sanitary the tank cover and lid cover are, rugs around the toilet base are definitely breeding grounds. Then there are the people that carpet bathrooms. Not only is it disgusting around the toilet base, but the carpet gets moldy all along the edge of the tub. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One advantage is that the excess preservatives in fast food reduces the amount of embalming fluid needed when our time is over... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love Zhaoying Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Husky Peeve #1: Husky sleeps in the bathroom, which makes it almost impossible to tinkle in the middle of the night..(Turbo takes up the entire floor of the bathroom..) Husky Peeve #2: Washed half of Cinnamon today (with "dry shampoo"), couldn't get her to roll over and do the other half..she was so dirty my fingers came away black after trying to groom her. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I befriended the gravedigger in the town I used to lived in (as one does), he mentioned that the corpses don't decompose as they should and that it's giving them scheduling problems (didn't quite catch how or why, I might have been half-way through a bottle of whisky). We don't even really do embalming here, but we've now decided human beings are now too toxic to do a number two in nature because it's bad for the environment - which I find quite charming! 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabrinaCooke Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Peeve: That feel when you've lost interest in a thing because it's been so long from creation to follow up, but you still have to do the thing because the client will eff you over if you don't. 🙄On top of which, your client is blaming you for them being four months late with their response.

LittleMe Jewell Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Peeve: Even though I work on the engineering side of the house, I still sometimes have to sit in on the calls when we do a release install....... and I really hate that. I'm only there in case folks have issues or if they all of a sudden can't manage to read the install instructions. This has been one of those nights. At least I can read my kindle through most of the work stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
