Sometimes it pays just to suck it up and keep quiet.
Depends on the activity and how much you're being paid, I guess.
I was referring to complaining about Meat being cooked but I like how your mind works
You're not that German cannibal we read about a few years back are you?
That guy saw the wurst in everyone.
Hey Lord, requesting a thunderbolt for this bitch please...
Kill him with...sound?

Ordered an expensive camera last Friday and was shipped via Toll. Get an update from Toll yesterday saying the parcel was delivered. Strange as I never got the parcel, contact Toll and they say left on doorstep. Check the house CCTV and it never camera to my place. So, it has been dropped off somewhere just not my place.
Contact Toll and ask for local depot number so I can sort out and get told they can't give me any info and their internal team will look into it and may get back to me in 24 hours.
Not fucken happy and very frustrated.
I had a parcel delivered to my neighbour a few doors down because the delivery driver was innumerate.

i think the delivery guy comes to our house every single day out of habit.

Whatever works. So long as it hurts him I’m not fussy.

Is he irritated to find you working from home?

Indeed. Amazon dude drove past our house the other day. I assumed he’d fucked up.
Sure enough, he was on the porch 10 mins later,
Had a laugh with him on the above. Says there are plenty of houses he visits every single day. Some, more than once.

You could try lightning and then if that doesn't work, hit him with thunder a few seconds later.

I’d settle for being reported and blocked.

We're actually on first-name terms with our DPD & Amazon delivery guys - and the Amazon bloke's dog who's with him in his van.

Well sounds like you solved the issue about not getting in vans with strangers.

No but that does happen on the fern.
I for one am extremely upset at the lack of posts about elite athletes, Sam Canes amazing pace and the latest from CCR and Joe Cocker.
Hearing about Argentinian friendlies or what a prime Frans Botha gets up to wouldn’t go amiss either.

He weighs too much to be fast.
No he doesn’t you imbecile. He’s 10kg LIGHTER than Papai’li so is automatically faster.
Honestly, Don’t you know sports ?
It’s very simple, unless you’re an elite athlete you’re slower than anyone lighter than you.

Hayfever. Fucking Hayfever.
Never had it this bad in the UK before. IT's been atrocious right from the word go since the rain stopped. On 2 Claratyne's a day plus nasal spray to keep it under control. Yet, as soon as I forget one of these things I'm back up again.
On the flip side, at least you can get 10 boxes of Claratyne from Costco for 9.99. Saving of 30 quid vs the high street.
-
@MajorRage yeah i pump the claratyne. it's fucked. especially during cane harvesting season

fucking social media algorithms
and in this i count Spotify
Every platform is getting fucking worse, and the stuff you see is getting narrower and narrower
Spotify is starting to give me the shits. I used to just use the "made for you" playlists, and now the "your top mixes" and they were good, plenty of different stuff in them. Not now. They are getting narrower and narrower. it's the same songs on every list. So it's gone from "you like this band, so maybe you'll also like this one" to "you like this song, so I'll play it to you heaps"
And this becomes and issue when Spotify picks the songs, and for what ever reason does put in something new. Last month it decided i wanted to listen to Frank Zappa. A lot. I fucking didn't, but "Broken Hearts are for Assholes" was everywhere! Also i don't like "Get Free" but The Vines anywhere near as much as you seem to think i do.
Instagram is fucked. In an effort to compete with TicTok it priorities video content. And your home feed is now fucking full of "because you interacted with". Tough fucking shit if the interation was you pausing your scroll because you looked up to maybe talk to someone. The search page is fucking terrible too. And it's wall to wall reels. fuck your reels.
At least on Facebook the thing works because i get heaps and heaps of "Raw is War" memories..
These platforms are fucking enormous, and yet are deliberately designed for you to see as little as possible. Not to make them useful, but to keep you looking, because eyes equal $$$. fluffybunnies.

@mariner4life I have the same problem on YT music, a gym playlist with like 50 odd songs, but because I play it off my watch, I have to restart it (on shuffle) each time. I pretty much get the same 7 or 8 songs each time now. Was thinking of switching to Spotify so good to know I'll just have the same issue!

lol fucking Get Free just came on!!
fuck this song. i didn't mind it, but now it's the main symptom of my huge first world problem
look, some of it will be my music listening, and perhaps i need to change my listening habits for a while to break it up.
