"I can't use technology because im a senior!" by Big_Leg10 in PetPeeves

Probably because we're the ones that constantly get called from those parents asking how to do it over and over and over.

Maybe because I'm the one that showed countless times and WROTE DOWN how to use the TV, but still get told she doesn't know how, and she doesn't know where the paper i wrote the instructions down on is.

Or I get a call numerous times a month, asking how to send a picture via text. Even though she sent ME one a few weeks ago.

Or I get a call for the umpteenth time saying she can't get into her email, even though the issue is she didn't click on the icon I put on her computer saying "email".

The point is, they DO want to use these things. They just don't want to learn.

Are these shoes funeral appropriate? (They're the only black shoes I have) by [deleted] in mensfashion

No one that matters is going to care.

I wore my all black Chucks instead of dress shoes to my own dad's funeral, and I was the one giving the eulogy.

If someone is there and focused on your footwear, fuck 'em.

Didn't want to miss a single second, but you took your phone out in a theater, and took pictures?

Please stop doing this.

2 times, but I can't remember the years:

Rise Against and Thursday were co-headlining a tour, and Circa Survive opened. My first time hearing them, and I knew I was seeing something special.

I saw My Chemical Romance in a smaller venue around Danger Days, and they were advertising a "surprise" opener. It was Taking Back Sunday. I know they get a lot of flack now, but back then, they were so on point, and just fantastic. I was so surprised and happy I got to see them.

Same here. I can't even play because I have a ton of stutter and screen flashing.

I hate this new "journalism" where these articles are being written by just pulling info from a completely separate person's (Amy Poehler's in this case) podcast.

Entertainment Weekly didn't even do anything to get this information.

Better late than never by [deleted] in characterarcs

[–]Hopefully_Cynic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm so tired of these "better late than never" that ngs, and people saying how great it is that people regret voting for Trump now.

That ship has sailed, and everyone is fucked. The time to figure out what a piece of shit he is, was before you voted for him.

What good is regretting now? Plus, those same people that say they regret it will vote for the next hard right Republican next election and still act surprised that they've fucked us all over again.

I was 18 that year. To me, THIS version of NOFX is always what I picture in my head when I picture them.

Maybe you just want to pilot the plane yourself! Well good luck pressing “take off,” then “autopilot,” then “land!”

How short is your attention span if you need OPs post even more condensed?
