What Grinds Your Gears? :)

Last night, I got sick after eating marinated pork belly, fried in avocado oil, and white rice. Too bad, because it was an authentic Korean meal I made and now I have to throw away what's left so I don't throw up again.

A thing that really pisses me off is when I'm trying to enjoy smoking a cigarette in the town when waiting for my bus to arrive so I can go home but strangers come along looking for a smoke of my cigarette. Even though I tell them it's my last cigarette they won't go away until I end up giving them the cigarette after only having a few puffs ffs. They start to get a bit aggressive when I refuse to give the cigaratte to them. They should buy their own cigarettes ffs. The guy looking for my cigarette today said that I looked vulnerable and that I looked like I was on anti-psychotic medication judging by my movements. Then he was saying he'd walk me home even though I told him I was waiting for my bus. Looking to shake my hand a few times and looking for me to hug him. Thought he was a bit weird, he was saying that God loves me and **** too.

Glad to hear you're fine.

Most houses in Ireland don't have basements so more than likely his shed

You do get some strange people where I live, some random guy asked me if I had a lighter on me but I said to him that I didn't then he accused me of taking a lighter out of my pocket to light a cigarette even though I actually didn't even have a lighter or a cigarette on me at that time He looked like he was high at the time, he was probably tripping. Some drunk guy grabbed a bottle of juice out my shopping bag one time too and I snatched the drink back out of his hand then he walks off ranting about me making me out to be the bad one

lol Yeah, that's why I included shed, wasn't sure about the basement situation.


Hope women around there carry pepper spray or something if legal, that stuff is creepy. Can't get over the "walk you home" guy.

I never really hear of women carrying pepper spray where I live tbh I hope I don't bump into that guy again when I'm in the town. I've even had drunk guys hugging me saying that they're not gay because of them giving me a hug, it's just a hug and even if they were gay I don't mind I used to hug people all the time when I was drunk. When I was waiting for the bus a few weeks ago at the bus station too there was some drunk guy chatting to some Spanish girl, he kept saying he wasn't a pervert even though he kept calling her beautiful I don't know how many times. He said that he had a wife and kid to her. Thought he was a bit weird too then when she was leaving he kept singing the chorus from that 'James Blunt - You're Beautiful' song to her. He then asked me to sit beside him. No ****ing way, it was a good thing my bus pulled into the station when he wanted me to sit beside him. He looked like he was in his 60's. He was getting pissed at me for not sititng beside him on the bench.

You find all the weirdos. Is this bus stop outside of a bar? Crack house maybe? lol Careful out there. (Edit: Or I dunno, ask for a selfie and see how they react. lol)



Grind... Sister uses those wifi puck things to piggyback off our mom's internet. Connection in her addition on the property went down yesterday, so she'd come over here to screw with and restart the modem.

Figures that when everything else was back online and fine... MY computer's wifi utterly shat itself. A 24 hour ordeal (okay I didn't work on it for 24 hours) of trying to figure out why a connection that WAS just fine prior now refused. The adapter was recognizing ours and other close networks, so it couldn't be completely dead, but refused to connect. Plus when restarting the modem it would connect for a few min before dropping again.

Dug out a disk for it I never had to use from the start, but hopefully that seems to have fixed a diver or soemthing. But what a pain in the ass.

There's three bars close to the bus stop Don't know how people don't get sick of the drink. I haven't touched it in 12 years but I still crave for it surprisingly despite not missing the hangovers and making a fool of myself in the states I used to get in

Someone hacked my food stamp account last Saturday. I checked the balance on my food card just before going to the grocery store and it said that my SNAP balance is $4.09 instead of the $277 I was expecting. I had the phone's answer system check the latest 10 food transactions and it appears that someone in Florida purchased $272 worth of food with my information. I had the operator cancel the card and he's sending me a replacement card, which will come in 2 weeks. I told my mom about what happened and she gave me $150 in cash to spend at the grocery store today.

This just pisses me off, because instead of applying for food stamps, someone stole my information from another state!

[IndigoErth]

Wow, that is LOW to go take from some other needy person like that. Some people really should stop taking up space in the world, like that one.

Glad it sounds like it wasn't hard to just get the card canceled and a new one coming. Goodness knows what a pain in the ass social services can be to interact with.




Grind... toaster oven door burns. Been a long time since it last got me. Those things may be a nice convivence over running the full oven, and the burn doesn't look like much, but damn those suckers hurt when they get you on that hot metal or glass.


Edit: How dare they discontinue the Spagetti O's with franks.

Sorry to hear that, I hate thieving scum. Some scumbag stole £3400 on me near enough 3 years ago. It's really sickening knowing the vermin is still breathing, don't know how that ****er hasn't been put in the ground yet because he stole from other people too

Sounds painful, hope you're ok.

[IndigoErth]

Yeah, it blistered up for a couple days, but now just a painless cooked spot I guess until it eventually peels.



Grind... ew, got Netflix new interface and hate it. Feels so much slower to even look through it. And where the heck is the easy to find New & Coming Soon.


9/22 -- WHY is Imgur's image editor (through browser) so horrible now? The old one worked great. This one? Damned if I can find an option to still resize images. What a crazy idea anyone would want to do that. Then there is the "cropping" that seems to leave a white background I can't take out. Am I blind and unable to see how this works, or is it really just garbage now...

[IndigoErth]

Sitting in the dark for almost 2 hours after the power went out. Fire company's log mentioned a nearby "electrical hazard."

But never in my life have I seen things that are turned off try to act like they're freaking haunted. When a cordless vacuum acts as if it's being turned on and off repeatedly... wtf. At that time, only the night lights were back on, nothing else. (Super weak current?) Little bit later I hear a clicking then whirring noise. My freaking DVD/Blu-ray player was now "haunted." Light by PC had also came on dim and flickering, as well as something else unidentified making a high pitched sound. Turned that light off and seemingly at the same time the night lights aslo went back out.

Just dark and quiet ever since... But that vacuum just about made me piss myself. Hell no, not the time to act haunted.
