Getting a little bit more than what I bargained for when i try to be a good member of the community

Some delivery guy who couldn't speak english very well came to my home to deliver something intended for somebody else, and he couldn't get the directions right. I knew the person, so I volunteered to sign for it in my name and walk the package over myself. Not a problem at all, cos it means a leisurely hike for me and I get to be helpful and say hi to someone I hadn't seen in a while. It's not unusual, as letters and small parcels tend to get put in the wrong boxes down my way, I have no problem helping someone not get their new phone or book or whatever lost to a faulty mail system.

And then of course, the guy promptly unloads a bulk order of three massive heavy boxes of god-knows-what at my feet, gets back in his van, drives off, and it immediately starts to rain.

Please leave your shitty 12-year-old masturbation fantasies at the door, and out of romhacks, unless they're specifically meant to be porn.
Thanks.

Not being able to record my classes anymore. I have been doing it for years so I won't miss anything but suddenly the teachers have a problem with it. I also hate it when something is on the test that isn't in the book or handout papers.

Always worrying about being able to get school work done, no matter how much I did that day or how much time I have left untill its duw.

Arpaio getting pardoned for a crime he actually committed that nearly all people agree should be something people get punished for.

The dude was holding people illegally in inhumane conditions under suspicion of being hispanic in the country illegally, and he was ordered to stop.

But he didn't and he became a convicted criminal.

So Trump pardoned him.

Because Arpaio "continued his life's work of protecting the public from the scourges of crime and illegal immigration" by literally causing many people to suffer and/or die. He committed and ordered people to commit awful crimes.

So he got a pardon.

The first pardon of this president.

I hate it.

How fast computers and operating systems become outdated, and how much it costs to always having to buy new ones...it almost gets to be like going to the dentist, or buying tires: well, not as bad as those things, but less exciting as time goes on, and more or less just another expense

Our neighbour never takes her packages that arrive and we always have to keep them until she comes.

What a skank, she never greets  us  or anything. We are never going to take her packages  for her again. It can't be that she is never there to get them.

Coffee has started giving me the these terrible migraines. I lost a whole day being miserable today. It's awful, I like coffee.

My brother got fired from work. Were there black power guys? Yep. Were there Nazis involved? Of course. Was it ridiculous?...

 

He already has two new jobs, because when you're the best, you're the best.

Might be the caffeine. I know I get migraines if I go too long without something caffeinated (though they quit after another day). Yes, caffeine is addictive and causes withdrawal symptoms.

Going downstairs to make a cup of tea at night barefoot and witnessing a huge cockroach crawl up from the kitchen sink out of nowhere onto my countertops as soon as I turn the faucet on, then I had to spend a good 10-20 minutes just to find the damn thing so I could vacuum it.

I stepped on a penny by my cat's litterbox...

 

This was distressing initially due to the fact that it felt cold, slightly damp, and stuck to the bottom of my foot as if it were flat when I lifted it up

 

Luckily, I was very relieved to find out it was a penny

To make a long story short, the corporate HQ got an anonymous tip that there was some kind of conflict in the shop, and decided that since they are a "Southern company" it was safer for them to fire everyone there instead of launching an investigation that could potentially find its way to the press.

How lately, after I drink coffee, I get really, really sleepy, to the point I'll take a nap, if I can, and then, after a few hours, the coffee seems to kick in, and I'm awake.

Questions on dimensional analysis.

Especially this one that wants me to show one constant in this equation is dimensionaless. And make one of the terms the subject of the equation for the second part.

For the record I've not even covered this related thing to dimensional analysis called the Buckingham pi theorem. I don't think I'll need to know that yet though.

Never liked when companies take something cool as shit they make and then waifu it up with shitty/generic art and the stale obligatory high school setting. 

How do you take something amazing like this.

And turn it into objectively inferior garbage like this? lol
It's not even the same genre and doesn't share anything in common with it's source material. It's so tasteless. (big image spoiler......I think. Post preview broke.)

 

 

 

Yes, this has anything at all to do with a richly detailed disco themed spaceship shooter. A visual novel about pedo bait waifus with the same face copy and pasted onto each other. "Personified versions of the ships". I believe it.

Jo-Ann's now sucks a bunch of fucking donkey balls. Also, fuck me and fuck my life.

So, there's a meetup at the local Renn Faire tomorrow, which is the last weekend the Renn Faire is happening. Two weekends ago, I went there to do some shopping, looking for a cloak and staff. Cloaks were too expensive, $100 and up. None of the staffs peaked my interest. So I decided to sew my own cloak.

First off, Fuck Jo-Ann's coupons and sales as they are done now. Jo-Ann's is known for good coupon deals. 40% and sometimes 50% off coupons.

Well, the pattern I wanted to get was on sale last week. I went to a local store to find the pattern sold out. Well, I'll be near another store tomorrow, I'll just stop by then. Turns out that pattern sale only went through Wednesday, not until Saturday. It used to be that all the sales would be Sun-Sat, but not anymore.

Then, the fabric I wanted was on sale for 30% off, which means I couldn't use a 50% off coupon on it. Decided to wait until this week to buy the fabric. Fabric was STILL on the lower percentage off through this Wed... so a week and a half. Why the fuck do you have a sale for a week and a half. Ended up biting the bullet and spending $32 on 5 yards of fabric at 30% off, thought it was enough.

So then I printed out an online pattern. Turns out the pattern was for wider fabric than what I had (doesn't help I didn't notice the fabric was supposed to be folded in half lengthwise in the instructions). This means I couldn't make the cloak two layers with the 5 yards of fabric I had, I could only make it one layer. So I find a different pattern online and print that one out. This second pattern ended up requiring 9 yards of fabric, so I had to get more fabric, and it still made a cloak that was only one layer.

So, in other words, had I stuck with the original pattern, it would have required 8-9 yards for two layers. With the second pattern, it required 9 yards, and more wasted fabric, for a one-layer cloak. Too late to change patterns now that I've cut the fabric into pieces. Only good thing is what I made is a bigger and more full 2/3rd circle cloak with more room, and the fabric is hefty enough I can live with one layer for now, and do a lining later, if I do that.

TL;DR:
Anyway, fuck Jo-Ann's for having coupons and sales that end at arbitrary times of the week instead of going the entire week. Fuck these people who put patterns online without explaining what width of fabric the pattern works with considering there are different widths of fabric and any professional pattern indicates the widths it works with. And fuck myself for not using the first online pattern I found, and just making a one layer cloak and worrying about a possible lining later. I would have wasted less money and time.

Also, I still don't have a staff ready, but found a great walking stick in the woods yesterday, I think I'll just cut it to length and worry about carving it later.

And if I ever ask why a two layer cloak can cost $150, when I just spent nearly $50 on ONE LAYER, please slap me.

How education currently works at lower levels + how many people want to change it + how many people actually do anything about it because they think teaching should be apolitical

Education is an institution situated within, defined by, and acted out through our culture that socializes a huge number of people in the way educators define (or fail to). Education is inherently political. Stop letting people tell you not to do what's right.

[Vae]

I hate when I specifically tell someone in a one-on-one conversation that a thing either disinterests me, or I don't like it, and then they proceed to prattle on about it for the next 30 minutes.

That wasn't an invitation, dipshit.
