Sliding the comment card left and right both shows AI crap instead of just the comments. Just give me human interactions ffs.

Guess I’m lucky they can see me in 2026.

however it was only 50 baht and was delicious so

My neighbor was outside talking on her phone while watching her 2 year old grandson. He was running around in front of her. I got into my car, turned on my favorite podcast and put the car in reverse. I looked up and realized that I didn’t see him anymore. I checked my rearview camera, and he was standing behind my car. Fortunately, my foot was still on the brake.

I’m so grateful that I have that camera. He’s so little that he was completely hidden from my rearview mirror. His grandmother didn’t look in our direction until I got out of the car and called her. I try not to think about what could have happened if I’d been running late and rushing.

I want to start by saying I LOVE dogs, and I think there are no bad dogs, just bad owners.

Three years ago, my husband and I rescued a mutt from a local shelter knowing full well she came with some complications - she was a street dog from a rez, and had some fear of men and other dogs. Through lots of love and training, she's grown to be an amazing companion who loves people, kids, and is great at ignoring other dogs when we walk on trails. If she's overstimulated or tired, I'll often pull her to the side of the trail to just sit quietly as other dogs walk by. This has worked so well for us, and I'm so proud of the progress she's made!

To help with her training, we only walk her at parks that are leash mandated. There is a full off leash dog park about two miles away, so I want to be clear that there are local options for an off leash walk.

So why do so many assholes think they can bring their poorly trained dogs off leash here??

Three times in the last WEEK, we've run into people on our walking trail with poorly behaved off leash dogs!!! Dogs running right up to mine, getting in her face, trying to sniff her butt when she's clearly upset. When I ask the owners to please recall and leash their pets, I'm met with scoffs, disdain, and one man escalated so much that he got red in the face, calling me a fucking bitch. I ended up crying in my car about it. I'm often walking alone. How the fuck am I not supposed to feel threatened by a man with two off leash German shepherds calling me a bitch? I called the non emergency line to see if local PD could help enforce the leash law, but just today, I was met by ANOTHER off leash dog.

Each instance is setting my own sweet dog back, because the more we're menaced by these bad dog owners, the more my dog is trying to defend me, barking and lunging. I don't want her to unlearn the years of training we've done with her to keep her peaceful around other dogs!

I just want to enjoy a beautiful, relaxing walk with my dog without feeling scared that around any corner might be another incident waiting to happen.

Please leash your dogs. It's ruining the park for the rest of us.

They also started to brown within a couple days. My bf assumed it was to reduce the shedding 💀

My one friend who loves to show off the holes in his underwear is convinced these bad boy still have some miles left on them. Drives me crazy 🤣

EDIT: I’m not standing over him taking this picture (thought that part was self-explanatory). He sent it to a group chat with 13 other guys. My goal is to show him this and laugh about it.

“Oh, did I somehow buy pasta with Italian herbs… herbs with wings… oh, gross.”

It was a sealed package so they were already there when I bought it.

Food inspection for quality is just unnecessary bureaucracy, though.

Edit: HEB, our grocery store, gave us a full refund based on the photo and dissatisfaction.

To note: I have to use FB. It’s the only space where I have groups for my hobby. I have no alternative. Also I do not engage with or hate watch right wing propaganda on there. I’m constantly inundated with far right propaganda. I quickly block and scroll on, but these outlets are just making new subsidiary accounts and getting right through to me. They finally created this new popup that says they’ll only “limit some of the ways they can interact with me”. That’s not blocking!

Be fucking for real

I just purchased a new toothbrush because my last one finally stopped holding a charge after about 4 years of use. I unbox it, and go to set up the dock in its new home and charge it up for the first time when I notice that the charging dock COMES WITH NO WALL MOUNT / CHARGING BLOCK!!!! It just has a bullshit usb at the end of it where there should be wall mount that it plugs into.

I mean wtf, do companies seriously need to start cutting corners this badly to be able to make a profit!? It’s just ridiculous like wtf do you think I just have loads of extra charging blocks laying around? Because I don’t. And do you know why I don’t? BECAUSE EVERY COMPANY IS DOING THIS BULLSHIT NOW!!!

So in order to charge my toothbrush I’m going to have to steal the block from my phone charger to plug my toothbrush into. WHY WOULDN’T THE DEVICE COME WITH THE TOOLS NEEDED TO ACTUALLY BE FUNCTIONAL?!??

EDIT TO ADD:

I didn’t realize that so many people in here are pro - corporate greed and so against the consumer. I was next expecting this many people to take the side of the giant corporations that are stripping away the value of what we receive in order to make their bottom line and profits better for themselves. How absurd.

My mom spent a month in the hospital. The hospital bill came and it was $56,000. The bill was itemized but there was one charge for $36,000 that wasn't labeled. Turns out that doesn't matter because the hospital submitted the bill to Medicare. Medicare paid $3,000. The hospital bill is now $0.00.

Don't get me wrong I'm thrilled she doesn't owe anything but also...wtf?

I debated between the two on the sixth chance and chose poorly…

Damn ants in San Diego! Anything left out for even a few minutes will be swarmed. I forgot to put away a can of quality eggs and woke up to a whole colony invasion.

Every time we go places with our kid, my wife gets annoyed by sick kids out there. She says it's very irresponsible of other parents to let their sick kids go out and make others sick too. She literally gets irritated and goes on ranting for hours. Same thing applies to sick coworkers that she rants about after coming home. She says they just should stay home instead of coming and making others sick.

Then she herself gets sick somehow and still goes to work—no, she's not sick, she's just tired of all the whimsy losers like me that chicken out in front of a sniffle. When our kid is sick—legitimately runny nose and fever with cough—she insists to still go places. If I mention how she get annoyed by other parents that drag their kids while sick, she says our kiddo is not sick, it's just very humid lately and all the wild fires cause the cough. She is not cancelling anything that is already paid for.

Is it just me?

We used to have the Do Not Call list, but that doesn’t mean anything, anymore. With all of the technology we have, why won’t Congress do something about this?

For my 16th birthday my dad gave me a necklace and no one mentioned it was real gold or anything. I thought it was just a cute necklace. And I DONT get expensive gifts on my birthday at all. So I had no right to think this would be a valuable gift, considering on my 15th birthday my dad got me a hoodie, and on my 14th some flowers and candy, and if there were any expensive gifts they made sure to remind me of it beforehand.

Now I've been wearing it all day, wearing it to the shower and everything. And then my dumbass was also chewing on it cause there’s something fucking wrong with me. I like chewing on shit. And after one bazillion years my mom finally decided to tell me that it was real gold and apparently this necklace was like $500-600 or something and MY.HEART.SANK.

That’s a lot of money to me, I kind of don’t know what to do now, I put it away locked in my closet for now

Less than 10 hours ago I posted a piece of fan art I'd made, and have just came across it on Facebook - where someone had put an AI filter over it 😑

She randomly comes back with a butt load of food items once in a while

Any lemon recipe suggestions

\she’s 44, for people asking her age\.

Fuck you O'Hare
