What's your personal fifteen 9/11s?
One time I bought avocado dip and as I was bringing it inside it slid off all the other stuff it was on and the container cracked so I had to find another larger container to put it in so it wouldn't go bad

9/11 happened when I was in an electronics store, so it was like 50 9/11s on all the TVs at once
I've only ever seen like two videos of it happening so you didn't get multi-cam views either
one time this cute girl asked me for my number because she thought my outfit was cute. she literally just thought my outfit was cute she was not a lesbian
That is weird. Did she just want to borrow your clothes? I've heard just becoming friends is a very lesbian thing to do so even stranger again
Ah, she wanted you to be one of her fashionable friends like she's the main character in a TV show and the supporting cast is people with different aesthetics

11:55am - I remove my first moderately-successful homemade lemon meringue pie from the oven, excited to give it to my husband for his birthday.
I send him a picture. "I did it!! Happy Birthday!!"
12:02pm - I knock the pie off its cooling perch right into the fucking sink because I am multitasking and clumsy.
I send him a picture. "I did it!! Happy Birthday!!"
It wasn't even the side with the disposal. I scraped the remnants out of the sink with my fingers.
Complete with photos and timestamps. I can't wait for conspiracy YouTubers to debunk the 'truth behind the lemon meringue pie'
How could a fresh out the oven meringue pie have that kind of consistency hmm? Are you telling me that at a 41.3 degree incline in the second picture it would slide off in to the sink at sufficient speed to wind up under the tray huh? Hoooo wee if you believe that have I got a bridge to smell you
::: spoiler spoiler The pie looked really nice I'm sorry for your loss :::
I one time made pancakes for the family and my fucking brother poured like a quarter of the maple syrup bottle on his and I didn't get as much syrup as I normally like.
My own personal nine eleven was when i was eating a lunchable at school and it was short by one cheese and so the last snack stack ratio was completely off. It ruined my week and i haven’t been the same since.
One time I was carrying a case of soda across a road and the case broke and the cans of soda rolled away and there were cars waiting to turn as I scrambled to pick up leaking cans of soda and run them to the side of the road
5 years ago I got blue balls and had to walk a mile to pick up burritos when it was below freezing
Writhing in pain in the bathroom of some mexican restaurant is probably the lowest point of my life
When Vibram's Five-Finger shoes stopped getting stocked in stores. I love trail running and those shoes are also comfy as fuck. Now I gotta order them online and hope they're the perfect fit.
Gentrification of everything. Now EVERYTHING is a "rich people thing" even shit they have no interest in. I thought that "white-working-class" shit like bowling would be immune to this, but nope. Now bowling is expensive as hell, and that's just ignoring the fact no one under the age of 35 regularly bowls as a hobby. Even getting a job has been a "rich people thing". No one's hiring and all the job advice assumes you have this thing called a 'network' which is something only rich people have. "Oh, can't get a job? Contact your network of billionaire friends and they'll pull some strings to get a job for you." Yeah thanks out of touch article....I'll get right on that. Me, who's not conventionally attractive and therefore never made friends and also lives in a rural red flyover state. I TOTALLY know some high-up people who would be happy to sacrifice their own wealth for me.
And people wonder why younger people are so unhappy? Because we have either been restricted from fully participating in society or barred from it altogether because we all forgot that poor people exist.
Man, I feel this. Kids don't go outside because we've made it a car hellscape. Adults don't go outside because it usually means spending money.
I got the network question one time in a job interview. Of course I don't have a network, I do my work and go home. I haven't made work my life and I hate that's the expectation
If you don't mind me asking, how did that come up in the interview?
But seriously, it makes all my efforts in life feel pointless because I didn't major in STEM and I'm not conventionally attractive, so no one wanted to be friends with me and no friends in this hellworld = unemployable.
I never heard back from that one. It was just a marketing job at a Coworking place so I didn't mind.
Work shit is hard. One thing that kind of helped me is finding a decent recruiter and getting some short term contracts.
I did some work in digital publishing for government departments. It's literally just copying and pasting content from word docs into websites. Show a recruiter you're computer literate and they can advocate for you to get tech adjacent roles like that
I just had another one.
I got in the shower and the shampoo bottle was empty. The shower was already going and I was already wet, so I couldn't get out and get another bottle.
I'll have to remember to put another one in before my next shower. In fact, I think I need to buy one first too
