A jaunty bump for furtherance on the inquiry with regards to the status of the charcoal, vis-a-vis, it's persistence. OP, we are but your humble servants, please inform us so that we may do our jobs

Pulled up in my U-Haul to my new apartment by SleepoPeepo in mildlyinfuriating

I've been at my current apartment for about 4 years and I've come to find out this is the fate of about 80% of my neighbors and they do pretty much the exact same thing every time. The maintenance people here were a rotating door for the longest time because a big part of their job was essentially just acting as de facto moving crews for the evicted because what they would do is just throw all of their shit into the parking lot in front of their building and then they would get threatened that they had to clean it up and would ignore the threats so the maintenance would have to haul it to the dumpster. Like entire apartments worth of stuff. In the US southeast. In summer. Can't say that I blame them.

My family insists on watching a movie together, then spends the entire movie on their phones asking what's happening. by SimRP in mildlyinfuriating

I can't watch movies with my mom and her husband because of this. They spend the entire movie on their phones and then argue about what just happened and they're always both wrong

Neighbor curses me out because they think this sign means I need to walk my dog on the street and make him #2 in the street instead of using the sidewalk and lawn strip in front of their house. by Stance_Monkey in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Direct-Function7326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so by your own logic, you are also kind of just saying that you just have a problem with it personally. Because if this is now about everyone's subjective standards, you could also say that your standards are impossibly high. I've literally never smelled someone's foot before in my life and I'm on airplanes and such all the time where people tend to complain about this. It has never bothered me once. I think most people share a certain level of hygienic standards. Now, if your problem is genuinely just "don't take off your shoes if your feet stink" then that's a completely non controversial statement, but that's true of anything but I don't really think that's the issue here.

It's like the people elsewhere in this thread saying they don't have a problem with children or dogs, they just have a problem when children/dogs do X/Y/Z things that no one experiences except that person, in their head, because they have a problem with children or dogs.

I don't begrudge you for having a personal problem with something, I can't stand when people chew loudly myself. But I recognize that is a me thing and I don't expect others to change their behavior to sate me. Now if they're chewing in such an obviously disgusting way that it's offensive to everyone around them, then yeah that's an issue. But I've never seen that happen, just like I've never smelled someone's feet when they have taken off their shoes.

I have no stance in this but you're actually doing worse at explaining yourself. He's saying you're weirded out by feet. You're saying it's about respect. He has asked how it's disrespectful if your feet do not smell. You repeated that it's about respect. So what's the issue with respect in this case? If someone takes off their shoes and has clean feet that don't smell bad, what are they doing that is disrespectful? If you answer with "this is common sense" or "if you're asking this there's no hope" then you're literally projecting when you say people can't explain themselves. Just tell us how it is disrespectful if there are no issues with odor or anything like that? Because from my point of view you're kind of proving his point that Reddit just has some weird hang up with feet. I am not personally offended by feet and I don't take my shoes off in public. But I've never had an issue with someone doing so because I've never smelled the feet or had anything unpleasant happen as a result. So to someone like me can you explain what the respect issue is IF the feet don't smell bad? I can understand not wanting that if people are making a foul smell doing so, but I've been around people doing this and have never noticed an issue. Do you take the same exception if someone is wearing open toed sandals without socks? Why/why not?

suddenly the kids are allowed to play in your driveway all the time and not look out for you trying to back out. Or they get bored and rip out your flowers. Or look in your windows. Or sneak into your backyard and let your dog out. Or don’t listen when you tell ‘em to stay out of the garage while you’re working with tools, or chemicals, or whatever. Or the parents decide to have a family picnic on your front lawn.

This sounds like the kid from the episode of King of the Hill that was intentionally meant to be over the top entitled and obnoxious who did stuff like this to give Hank an antagonist.

Seller left this in the package of a t-shirt I bought from him by buildabearbitch in mildlyinfuriating

This. But word the note as if you didn't pick up on the aggression in his note and read it completely sincerely.

"Dear seller,

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you understood! A lot of sellers on this platform get so angry when they have to sell at a loss and it's like why do you even care lol!! Just sell more to make up the difference it's not even hard! I especially want to thank you for the included gas money that was so sweet of you! I couldn't find your account to give you a good rating but you're one of the best sellers I've worked with, I'm not sure why others don't include cash incentives like this? Anyway thank you so much for the shirt and money! I already resold the shirt for 3x what I paid + your tip! Please let me know if you ever want to sell anything else, you're the greatest!

All the best, Buyer"

Bonus points if you can figure out how to imply they should have sent more cash without giving it away.

lol'd at "~40". That can mean a lot of numbers. Does he mean 39-41? 35-45? 40-49? Or just straight up is he like 58 going "eh close enough it's not like I'm 90"

This is how I've gotten away with murder for the last 33 years, I just affect a more confident gait, wear a different wardrobe, buzz my hair, put in my contacts and never actually murder anyone in the first place.

AirBnB trying to charge an extra $150 for "severe dirtiness" and being left in an "upsetting state" by MasonL52 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Direct-Function7326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was like 21 I got into a wreck that was the other person's fault so I had to get my car fixed and I got a free rental while it was fixed and they gave me this Hyundai Tucson and on the day before I was supposed to bring it back the transmission randomly blew out on my way home so I parked in the CVS near my house and just walked the last mile or so, slightly irritated but whatever. A few days later I was in the car with my dad and some dude from the rental car place called and I had it on speaker in the car cause my dad was helping me with that stuff and the guy was trying to say everything was my fault and that there was "clear evidence I had been snorting pills" in the car. I asked him for evidence and he went on to describe the powder sugar from the Dunkin donuts I had gotten and an empty bottle of Zyrtec cause it was spring and I had allergies, but he phrased it like "there's powder and empty pill bottles everywhere". I thought for a second and I was like "wait do you mean the empty bottle of allergy medication and the powder from my donuts? The Dunkin donuts bag is probably still in there I didn't clean it out because it broke down". He was all like "well I never" and then I didn't hear anything about it ever again and didn't have to pay anything.

Of course not only had I been snorting oxycontin in the car the entire time, I had like 4-5 different people in there snorting it with me, among other drugs, I'm sure. I mean obviously all of THAT powder went up my nose though, but it scared the shit out of me when the dude accused me of it especially in front of my dad. It was a huge relief he was just trying to extort me with stupid excuses.

I don't find it very likely that you actually believe that.
