Sucks. How did it break?

Do you really want to ask Arvie a question like this?

CatsCatsCats · « **Reply #7141 on:** June 18, 2019, 03:26:23 PM »

Let me rephrase: which part failed?

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #7142 on:** June 18, 2019, 03:53:52 PM »

First one, one of the bumper springs went, this one just vibrates when I plug it in and doesn't light up or do anything else.

Yeah, I’ve had bumpers die, too. That rumble thing sounds weird, wonder if you could update/flash it

Everyone is dying. You're just dying from brain fungal infection, delayed onset icecream headache, or seeing a pretty anime girl, probably.

Walking back from lunch, let out a massive fart and two prostitutes walked into the cloud of it. They didn't even flinch. It was a weird dank one too.

An ant got stuck in my main pc monitor. It ran around for some hours and now seems to be dead. I think I might be permanently stuck with an ant screen now.

Had a bug crawl around in my old monitor as well, but it either found its way out or died somewhere I couldn't see.

My train line is one of the busiest in Tokyo. Yesterday's ride was absolutely miserable. Had my arm folded against my chest, and people pressed up so close that it folded my elbow past its range of motion, like having a joint-lock-submission put on me.

Today, it was raining, and there'd been a "human-related accident" on the train lines, so everything was running late. The first delayed train arrived and it looked worse than yesterday's so I skipped it.

When the next train came, it was nearly as crowded, but I had to get to work, so I got on that one. People are not moving out of the way to help people disembark. Just really feeling like Tokyo is forgetting its fucking manners this week.

My robot vacuum is fucking with me.

Im on the loo taking a dump listening to hip hoo browsing the bore and suddenly this bitch says "cleaning cycle complete, returning for charing" bitch please you've out for 20 minutes and your battery is at 82%.

I swear it only does this when Im at home to piss me off. What's tue point of a robot if I have to keep checking the app to see if its doing its work and have to tell it that it should clean more.

Complaining about public transport when you haven't lived the T

Just had a train derail on the morning commute a few weeks ago, nbd

Peak union corruption preventing meaningful improvements

Still have humans checking tickets on the commuter rail

Not even arrival estimates are displayed most of the time

A plan to implement contactless ticket payments in 2020 has been delayed indefinitely

Literally no hope things will get meaningfully better in 10 years

The T was annoying because it didn't have circular routes, just the spokes on a bike wheel.

Also the stations were way too warm in the summer.

Still better than the trash in SoCal though.

At least the new Gov't Center is kinda shiny, too bad it's servicing the two weirdo lines and not Red/Orange

You brought this on yourself, friendo. You had to know there would be a day when Neil Breen movies would come back to bite you in the ass.

I guess the bright side is that I’ll be watching something better than Raw for a change.

Speaking of the PS 4.
My PS4 stopped displaying video, audio was still there. Tried on different TVs in the house and it worked fine.
Tried different cables and ports but still no dice. Did a factory reset of the TV and it worked.
Took me way too long to troubleshoot this.

"Smart" TVs and their shitty software

I'm still angry at the one pasta commercial that uses the fucking sirtaki in the background. They obviously meant to use the tarantella napoletana but the guy that added the music fucked up.

He should be shot.

My wife makes fun of me because that commercial always riles me up. What the fuck, who thought adding THE stereotypical Greek song to a fucking Italian pasta commercial was a good idea.

So I went to a gathering hosted by some friends of friends last night. I got pretty inebriated, and at a certain point I passed out on one of their couches for a bit. It turns out that I was asleep, lying face up, with a very visible erection in my slacks for nearly an hour, and everyone at the party saw it, and a couple girls took pictures with it

So yeah my mom did actually break her finger today, my parents were on a boat and had to wait for hours before they could get to a hospital. Apparently she fell and somehow managed to break the finger and dislocate the knuckle or something. And of course it was a finger on her right hand and she's right-handed.

Well why this sucks for me is that I just today traveled to stay at my parents' for a few days since my sister is having a baby tomorrow (induced labor) and I came over to help a bit. My mom was supposed to look after my sister's older kid and I was supposed to take care of my sister's dogs and also hang out with the kid but not take care of him since I don't have any real experience with that stuff. Well now my mom won't be able to use her right hand at all so yay, I get to learn how to change diapers full of shit and how to clean a little kid's shitty ass and all that other glorious stuff I've managed to avoid my whole life. Having to pick up dog poop is disgusting enough, human shit is just a big fat NOPE. Also the kid is in the terrible twos stage and throws massive tantrums, likes to throw stuff at others, tries to hurt the dogs etc.... so I have to deal with that and the dogs and they're not exactly well behaved either

I suppose I'll also have to cook and go get groceries etc. I'm sure my mom will try to do stuff but I don't think she can get much done with just one hand and especially the wrong hand. And my dad will just excuse himself to his garage for a whole day rather than do anything to help. Oh and yeah there are the other grandparents too who live pretty close and could help but my sister doesn't like them so she won't accept their help

So anyway I came here thinking I'll just look after the dogs and play with the kid while my sister is giving birth and her hubby is by her side, it won't be too bad... and instead now everything falls on me

I'll have a nervous breakdown by day two, I'm sure of it. This shit will turn from an inconvenience into a struggle pretty much the moment I wake up tomorrow.

Tldr: I think I'm about to learn what it's like to be a single parent $:-\$
