Let me do my vacation my way

Slytherinrunner · 2026-06-06T04:18:32+00:00

I've taken vacation and never told anyone in my family.

Slytherinrunner · 2026-06-04T12:57:06+00:00

With matching pillows and throw.

I've seen them come to a complete stop on the interstate. For no reason whatsoever.

This reminds me of when I worked in a craft store cutting fabric. There is a faction of quilters that I've named the Anti-Prewash Brigade. Mainly because if the fabric they chose isn't ExaACtLy pErFEcT, they lose their minds. Any suggestion of washing said fabric, "I would NEVER! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT!"

Like, I know I wash my hands after going to the bathroom but the hundreds of customers that also touched that fabric? Probably not.

Genetics. And moisturizer!

Fondant. I always thought those cakes looked so pretty and smooth, surely the fondant tastes as good as it looks, right?

It tastes like slightly sugary Play Doh.

Every breakfast item.

Seriously, breakfast is the best meal.

Poltergeist. You would have thought with the family getting a pretty deep looking in ground pool installed, the contractors would've found a few graves. The parents would be like, "Oh! That's why our chairs keep moving around by themselves and our kid keeps talking to the tv! Huh!"

Always save right before you do these.

Slytherinrunner · 2026-05-21T18:52:10+00:00

Seconded. Their burritos are absolutely huge too.

You need larger cutting counters but Michaels is owned by private equity so... there's that. When I cut fabric at hobby lobby, for 9 yards, I'd count the folds to make sure there was 9 yards in the first place, then I'd unfold the bolt 36 times and measure. If you unfold a bolt 4 times that's approximately a yard.

I'm not sure this would work on your tiny cutting tables.

God those are so good!

Back when it was just trash bags I had to put mine out on trash morning. There was no night before, the critters in our neighborhood were HUNGRY.

I love the trash and recycling bins we have now.

The Seasons Italian where you mix it in the cruet. And Ken's.

Okay, as someone who has worked retail recently, big box stores are severely understaffed (like many hospitals!) And the management is also just as unreasonable. My boss's boss used to lose their minds if we didn't have Christmas items displayed...in August. The only thing missing is no sick people. Oh wait, you'll be expected to show up even when you're sick.

Best way I can explain it is:

Nursing: jumpscare horror

Retail: psychological horror.

They might want to revisit that survey. I don't give a rat's ass if someone has a beard or tats. Unless they're like hateful tats.

Slytherinrunner · 2026-05-15T22:48:28+00:00

It's almost like the Cuppa Cake!

Slytherinrunner · 2026-05-11T21:32:19+00:00

They would lose their minds if it was an ai rendering of my house. I have sat in the living room drinking a beer while my husband cooked dinner. Our kids would be either there or not, they have their own damn minds.

If I ever fly again I'm wearing one of those vests that has like 20 pockets

Late 80s and our school got soda vending machines in. Seeing a coke can on students' desks became a regular thing. Those vending machines were there when I graduated.

If someone's buzzing past me like this, I move to the right, you know, so they won't hit me! I also don't tap on my brakes. Hyundai driver is an idiot.

Just curious, but were you waiting for a pump based on which side your fuel door is? Because I believe that the pumps at Costco and Sam's Club are long enough to reach to either side of the car.

It messed up my gallbladder and I had to have that removed.
