Stuck in traffic during rush hour and all the drivers think they own the place. Some guy cuts me off to take an exit five cars down - like it's his own personal ramp. Never a courtesy glance either...
Picked up that new laptop for my kid last night and they still put a sticker in the bottom corner I just tried to peel off to take it back looking tacky now and now I have more plastic waste.
Just tried to make a simple cup of coffee, reached for the sugar, and found that they'd somehow misplaced the container. Now I have to spend more time hunting down some silly little thing in this a...
Staring down at today's date - 785978 - I can still feel an irrational sense of annoyance. It's the fact that when I went to grab my morning coffee, they'd run out of my favorite syrups for the, w...
568767, can you believe that coffee maker still broke? Been meaning to replace it, but kept putting it off, and now it took out my morning routine too. No caffeine kick, just cold brew from the sto...
Today I tried to pay for a small coffee using my loyalty card but the barista couldn't scan it because the printer had just jammed so it was the last digit that wouldn't register and of course they...
Just had to explain to the Starbucks app it didn't recognize my account. I've had that number since high school and I know the password. The barista looked baffled as I tapped screen after screen t...
So I spent 20 minutes setting up a gaming session this morning, trying to get the lag out of my setup only to discover I'd misplaced my HDMI to USB adapter on bus 627456 where I got it from, and no...
I'm standing in this line for coffee and they're just not communicating the wait time at all. Like, is it 5 minutes or an hour, just tell me already. Now we've been waiting for 10 minutes and this ...

Today at the grocery store I tried to pay with a $50 bill for a $25 item and the cashier, a perfectly nice person who's clearly not thinking, asked if I wanted her to give me fifty bucks in exact c...
This guy in front of me on the bus is holding his phone at an awkward angle, blocking my entire view of the road, because he thinks the corner of his screen showing me how many likes his Instagram ...
I'm trying to make coffee but the machine is still stuck on this ridiculous cleaning cycle thing and it's on day 3 today. Who programmed this to take this long, a team of masochists? Every hour I w...
Today in line to buy my coffee, the cashier asks if I'd like sugar or creamer first, like it matters at this point. I respond with a clear, concise 'none, thanks' only for her to awkwardly pause an...
Stood in my apartment building elevator for two minutes staring at a blank screen because apparently pressing floor 5 and hold won't register as a valid selection. Like who designs this stuff. Can'...
Standing in the checkout line I'm hit with the most asinine policy. Apparently some genius decided a customer can only pay with exact change if the amount ends with two dollars. Newsflash: people...
Just spent 10 minutes trying to print a document at 823413 Main Library because their printer had one too many paper trays jammed in. Why did I need this exact one-page document to happen during th...
