I feel like fire was ours unless it’s just been a localized slang. I feel like I’ve been saying it for like 10 years, maybe more. Maybe I just got the ole dementia.
I used to get piss shy at troughs, but I can tell you exactly why. 6 or 7 year old me was using one probably for the 1st time, and some cunt decided to say “quit looking at my dick kid!” I fuckin wasn’t, but when your head is at dick height, like maybe it would appear that way. I was focused on my own dick n trying to piss, and then couldn’t . Thanks to that fuck, for ~ the next 12 years of my life I was not able to squeeze a drop at a trough unless I had the corner, or ample space. Had a complex for years over it. Eventually, alcohol would solve that problem… If I’m drunk, I can piss fuckin anywhere. Now it doesn’t really bother me anymore, but fuck that guy. I’m, definitely glad troughs have mostly gone the way of the dodo because of said complex, but at times when I’m at sporting events, I wouldn’t mind if they still had them because men’s rooms never had lines before.
A big reason is phone manufacturers purposefully restrict the amount of storage on devices and killed expandable storage so that you will be forced use the cloud for everything, and if you want more space on your phone, you need to pay way more money than it actually costs for the difference in hardware cost. We certainly have the technology to have more storage room for media on our devices, but you know… Enshittification.
I kept my epic beard during the 'demic, n the most annoying thing was wearing a mask n having it leave an imprint in the beard n fucking it all up. Now I just have a low-key boring beard. I kinda miss the ole bushy bastard.
This one guy I worked with might have been homeless. The dude smelled like feet, old people and idk, ranch dressing? He claimed he had a medical reason that he smelled so bad, but idk. The dude always looked greasy as fuck like he hadn’t showered in 2 or 3 weeks. He was also notoriously slow at his job. The guy was a bagger at a grocery store, and only worked closing shifts. Other departments that were short handed would always steal the baggers when they had people call out sick. One night our department gets a call saying was the seafood department was asking for help.
Well, guess who I sent over there? Honestly, I just wanted to get him out of the department because he literally made the whole department reek. Turns out when you are surrounded by raw seafood, it’s harder to notice the guy smells so bad. He eventually would go on to work there and meat department, and I heard after I left, the management actually gave him the team member of the year award. I would have never in a hundred years guessed he’d have gotten that, but I was glad it worked out for him.
That 2fa is proper garbage when your phone breaks. My wife’s phone broke, and I couldn’t get her authorized on the new phone bc 2fa. I logged into a desktop that she was logged in on, got the code and everything, but that apparently wasn’t good enough. Needed to be able to respond to a text on the phone that didn’t work, or wait 48 hours before customer service could do anything.
Same thing with find my device. Usually, when you want to find your device, you’re not going to have your device on you. If you lose your phone in a public place now, you’re fucked until you can get back to another device you’re logged in on. Wife also lost her phone on a trip. Here, use mine to log into your account and track it. Nope, need 2fa to get into find my. Like, I’m low-key tempted to just turn it off and be less secure after having 2 shit experiences as a result of it. I won’t because security and all, but damn.
