Wireless printers. There are 2 in my office. One will not connect and the other won't come out of sleep mode. And fuck setting up the wireless. Mother fuckers, make this shit simple. 

I have emailed documents (from my PC) to myself, just so I can have it on my iPhone and print from it.

I don’t know what they’re doing at Apple, just know they are making my life a whole lot easier.

Moved all my printers to one of my Macs. Life is good. Windows can suck my ass. But still. HP, Brother, etc, get your shit together. 

What if we all went back to pigeons and hand written notes?

4 way stops are instant Mensa-quizzes. 

Less Mensa quiz and more of a prisoner’s dilemma. I know the right of way rules but I have zero faith that the other assholes do and will adhere to them. I am going to take the extra beat to make eye contact and if someone’s not doing that the odds are they will fuck up the order of operations. 

My driving and mood changed dramatically when I had a kid and realized that the only thing that matters on the road is not crashing with everything else way behind. Don’t give a shit if I am at fault or not, if I get in an avoidable accident I failed.

Of course, there's right of way, and then there's waiting for a wrecker.

That being said, I never make eye contact and IDGAF if they are waving their hand off.  I wait for the car to the right to go, or I wait an instant for the intersection to be clear, and I go.

I hate the people that ignore it when they have the right of way and try to wave me through first, it just fucks up the system and delays everyone

And actually increases the odds of an accident.  Because everyone else knows you don't have the right of way and are not expecting you to go.

People that automatically salt food before tasting it.

That's me.  But I have some kind of salt deficiency.   I eat more salt than anyone I know but my BP is consistently in ti 115/65 area.

I've never heard of that, but seems legit.  I'll attempt to soften my judgement.  :)

We drove in from So Texas last night, about the time we pulled in the garage I remembered that I was nearly out of coffee.   The HORROR!  There was just enough to make 1 cup this morning, so there's that.  I'm off to c-store for a large black coffee (or 2).

To your own house?

That's like running out of tampons.  I would give my wife grief for sending me on some emergency trip to the store for That shit.   "Did it surprise you this month?  Did you not know ahead of time?"

She had a hysterectomy at age 26, so crisis averted...sort of.

The normal routine would be we would leave much earlier and she'd order groceries online to be delivered about the time we get home.  However, we left way late yesterday and that wasn't gonna happen.  I rolled the dice on the standard procedure and got bit in the ass.  My bad.

Never run out of coffee. Rookie move Sir.

Stop acting like sanctimonious hoes. 365 days x 14,600 (that’s 40 years of being a coffee craving adult) you’re bound to run out of one component to the coffee process at least a few times. 
 

@Bevo&Pevo I see you my man. Btw since you’re out and about don’t forget the breakfast tacos.

Coffee. Water. Electricity.  One of those is on me.

Currently have 2 bags in the pantry. Yeah, we ain't running out of coffee, soda, beer, or bourbon.  Ever.

I keep a back up of Cafe Bustelo always in reserve. I try and get a pack everything I go to HEB (when it is open). Just went and checked. Have built up the reserve to 5. That is a month at least in reserve. 

Having lived in places where coffee was a real luxury I do not fuck around. Again, rookie move. 

Also, this place has some good emergency coffee kits. Check them out. Good coffee. So have one of their kits in my go bag.

Oddly specific, or can you just not borrow some from your wife?

Wow your wife is so lucky to have such a forgiving partner. Because you’ve never forgotten anything in your whole life, I’m sure.

LOL.  Nope.  Never have forgotten the tampons I needed.  Mainly, I cuss and gamble too much.

She's had 32 years to change out the deck, so there's that piece too.

Probably a product of my career choice, but yeah, going to the store last second is NOT on my list of cool things to do.  It's like someone else forgetting something at the office, but they also want you to go get it for them.

The bigger point is that it is a repeating, predictable event for which it is absolutely important to be prepared.

Yet we seem surprised that it happened again...
