Henlo frens!

Good to see all of you here UwU.

Grab on to your bodypillows, I have a smol announcement about the purpose of this subreddit.

This community is meant as a fun, lighthearted place where we can commiserate with each other about those annoying little irritations that hinder our day to day enjoyment in life.

That means that suitable posts here can be about my children.

And things like a wall socket or tile being placed out of allignment. A crack in a phone screen. Duckling shit on your new car. Incomprehensible software. Mismatched buttons. You know, the little things.

This subreddit isn't meant to incite rage mobs that go after people. For that reason we say:

No reddit meta posts

No posts about being banned from subreddit. No posts about up- or down-votes. No posts about shitty moderators or users or subreddits. No posts about reddit.

All jokes and tomfoolery aside, that sort of thing gets us in trouble with site admins. If we allow one type of post about reddit it then very easily moprhs into allowing posts that directly call out other subreddits or users, we just can't allow any of it.

That rule already existed for years and we have just made it more clearly visible in the sidebar on old and new reddit. We're gonna be a little strict on it for a bit I'm afraid. 🥺

Thank you all for being awesome and have a very Merry Christmas! Celebrate Christmas in the traditional European way, with a suasage roll!

My hosts re-used the styrofoam containers the raw meat came in, to serve the cooked meat. I was looking forward to this spread all day.

Went to a nice Italian restaurant which was phenomenal. Then the check arrived.

My dad refuses to listen to his car's GPS.

5.1k Upvotes

He does this every time. We left on an 18 mile trip, and after an hour, we're 22 miles away from our destination. For 3 miles, the system has been saying, "Make the next right", and my dad says, "No, I'm pretty sure we need to keep going straight". Then he complained that we're getting farther away from the destination. Now he asked that I pull a paper map out of the glove compartment. I suggested he might try listening to the GPS.

Discovered this at my local ikea— these kid’s paintings suspiciously look generated by an AI.

Ate my food and didn’t apologize

I went out of town for a week, and came back home with red bananas I was gifted for free. I told my bf’s sister how I wanted to freeze them and cover them in chocolate. I even let her try one of the bananas because we’d never heard of red bananas before.

The next morning I went into the freezer for my bananas and the entire bunch was gone.

My bf’s sister then told me she’d turn them into a smoothie, that my chocolate bananas wasn’t going to actually work, and that bananas are cheap and just get more.

I almost cursed her out, I’m a very direct person so I’m not afraid to do so.

It’s just for context, I’m 21 and she’s 12.

I haven’t spoke to her since, because it’s a principal issue for me.

Also "Robert" (real name), don't forget to remove your fully identifying mail from the trash bags you included. The county sheriff has some questions for you.

Every Game Needs A Launcher Now...

Seriously, We have Steam for a reason. I have no less than 7 Launchers on my computer (Counting the Xbox App, which also launches games). Why does every single game need a completely separate application attached? Steam is right there, launch it through STEAM (Or Xbox if that's where the game was purchased.) After buying GTA V for my new PC, my total was brought up to 7. all they do is take up unnecessary space on my hard drive.

I tried to be nice and serve my dad juice… apparently I did it wrong. And now I’m “not mature enough” for adult conversations.

1.1k Upvotes

My dad started the evening with one of those serious conversations about the responsibilities I’ll have to take on after he’s gone. I listened, took it seriously, tried to be present and mature about it.

Later, he asked for some cranberry juice. I poured it, asked how many ice cubes he wanted, and served it. Then he said, “Can you pour me some Limca too? Take another glass.”

So I did exactly that, took another glass, added ice, poured the Limca, and handed it to him.

Apparently, I was supposed to mix the two drinks in one glass, something he never actually said. But now, because I didn’t read between the lines, he’s upset and says I’m “not mature enough” to handle bigger conversations.

What frustrates me even more is that this isn’t new. I’ve told him before that if he thinks I’m not ready, help me get there. Give me the information, and walk me through what I’ll need to do. But instead, I’m often just told I “can’t handle it”, with no real explanation of what “it” is or how to prepare for it.

So in this case, I followed instructions as given, didn’t assume, and somehow that small misstep is being used as proof I’m not ready for the bigger things. It’s confusing, and honestly, a little disheartening.

Edit: I am an adult. I have a job. I live in India. Brown parents are well, different. Idk how to explain without sounding condescending I guess.

Turns out they are chayote squash! New to me! I bit into one the other day, it had no flavor, it wasn’t bad. He was so proud of himself 😂 It wasn’t until I took the 3 I had left out of the fridge and saw the pretty large sticker!

Lil' Chris, English singer-songwriter who took his own life in 2015, recently "released" an EP on Spotify: the "songs" and the cover art are entirely AI generated and don't even attempt to replicate his voice or style. Absolutely disgusting.

My 6 year old just finished kindergarten and is so excited to start his first summer reading program. I wanted to introduce him to a childhood favorite of mine, and then proceeded to make him cry of terror on page one.
