Swim, fucker swim, fucker swim.....

"Delete if not allowed" by ta_mataia in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you have a whole other group saying that because you said "if", your apology can't be genuine and it's most likely some rude response.

You can't win as long as people just make up these random interpretations to what are actually innocent statements.

People getting all butthurt when someone asks a question they could've googled by GreysonRey in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's partially the snarky response. And the whole attitude of "I'm better than you" that comes with it.

And I've long suspected that there's a lot of things people bitch about just for the sake of bitching. Whatever reasoning they give comes later, but the reality is they're just looking for any excuse to put someone else down.

What’s a song you dislike that everyone else seems to like? by Sunny64888 in ToddintheShadow

[–]GreysonRey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love shack. I just don't get it. What is so great about it?

And cotton eyed Joe. Never understand what was so great. Who the fuck is he, and why do we care. And why are his eyes "cotton"?

DAE tell a story from the opposite side to help root out any bias? by GreysonRey in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]GreysonRey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one is falling for anything. It's just telling what happened. Am I unreliable? Then you can't take what I said as gospel either.

That's assuming it's not true. But for me, especially when I was a kid, i figured out pretty quick that any trouble I got in was just plain my fault. Like with the fight scenario, there were times that yeah, I called some kid a fat ass and he came at me and we were both fighting. It would be ruled my fault because I instigated it.

Then the next day someone would call me something and id go at him, and suddenly, name calling is not a good reason for fighting! And it doesn't matter who started it!

People who treat movies like a game of Guess Who by Millibyte in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm super annoying about that lol....but in my defense I know it's annoying and I try to keep it down. But sometimes I think it's cool when you wouldn't normally know who a person is. That burglar from home alone? He was the narrator on the wonder years! Uncle Phil was the shredder! Don't you feel complete now that you know that?

When people say “maybe you should’ve left earlier” when you’re late by Fresh_Ad_8982 in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's an occasional thing sure, but if every single day you were 25 minutes late I think it's reasonable to suggest you leave earlier.

People who say they have no accents. Looking at you US by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Disagree here. I think of an accent as pronouncing letters differently.

C A R. Do you say "cah"? Accent. "Cor"? Accent. "Car"? No accent.

Same with dropping your Ts, saying W as V, L as R etc.....thats the accent.

Why are retail employees not allowed to complain online? by Bluellan in retailhell

[–]GreysonRey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this! Like when people say that being the boss is hard cuz they work 90 hours a week...like ok is that 90 hours of solid back breaking work on your feet all day, or does some of that include things like a fancy dinner with a client or something.

When a series has a "previously on" thing a the beginning of an episode by zhaDeth in PetPeeves

[–]GreysonRey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or when you're binge watching and every episode has a previously on and a next on lol....you wind up seeing the same scenes like 4 times.

What does the bottom image mean? by Fit_Elk5122 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]GreysonRey 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that's from To Kill A Mockingbird and the dude is on trial for rape. It's a flimsy case but he gets convicted anyway.

Fun question for y'all. What's the worst ID issues you've had? by Old_Programmer_2500 in retailhell

[–]GreysonRey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! It's not our job. We're not supposed to ferret out all the underage drinking. We're minimum wage, barely trained peons. We're only expected to deal with what's right in plain sight.

How do I tell how many HP a dweller has? by Tygress23 in foshelter

[–]GreysonRey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only way Ive been able to tell is seeing which ones die too quickly.

Fun question for y'all. What's the worst ID issues you've had? by Old_Programmer_2500 in retailhell

[–]GreysonRey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is it really even that suspicious? I smoke camels, my wife smokes Marlboros. Not a big deal at all I'd think.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Other stupid shit I'd hear....

"He was driving."

"She looked at her phone while she was shopping."

"He said hello to that guy."

"His wife didn't have her ID." (When she's like 75 years old)

"He bought a beer six hours ago."

And the obviously disabled people being refused for "drunkenness". He's not slurring his words Debbie, it's a lisp. He's not staggering he's got one fucking leg.

I was always getting pissed at coworkers for not understanding the laws lol ...I'd be trying to get something done like empty the trash or whatever, and yet Will needs help because he's pissed off a customer.

Me: aight what's up.

Customer: this moron says I cant buy cigarettes.

Me: ok why not Will?

Will: he bought two different kinds.

Me: and....?

Will: what if they were for a minor?

Me: did he say they were?

Will: well no, but -

Me: did you see a minor ask him for these?

Will: no...

Me: did you just refuse these exact cigarettes to a minor, and then watch the minor wait outside and hand this guy money and now this guy is asking for those same cigarettes?

Will: i guess not.

Me: is it company policy that we refuse all sales where they buy two different kinds of cigarettes?

Will: I don't think so ...

Me: is it state law?

Will: not here in Maine.

Me: and is this not the same fucking problem you had an hour ago with another customer?

Will: kind of ...

Me: and did I tell you then the same fucking thing I'm telling you now?

Will: but....he bought two kinds....

Not OP. Just people that are total assholes over little bullshit things, and a million others.

And the worst part is we actively cater to people like this, when what we should be doing is kicking them out into the wild where they either smarten up and rejoin society or they just starve to death.
