Things that piss you off

[Perplexate]

Just a few moments ago, some random installers popped up and would not stop installing some random crap and viruses onto my computer. It's weird since I've been only on harmless sites the entire day. Especially weird since for the past week my computer has been scanning for once or twice a day and has not detected any bullcrap. Now up and sudden I have 144+ viruses hanging out. I've tried uninstalling the crap that shows up in my control panel, but it ent up uninstalling some things and installing other things. Apparently, when I do manage to uninstall junk it pretty much clogs up and won't let me uninstall other things until I restart or something.

Jeez, there's something I'll spend my day on. I am very upset. But at the rate things are going, things'll be fix eventually.

It doesn't help with the fact that it screwed up my web browser, too.

So yesterday was a bit annoying. Spent over an hour riding around a couple of lakes trying to find a fishing spot because dad just went "yup, there's a lake here" and didn't bother to check if they were residences or public (the first of which wasn't even a lake, it was a puddle in the middle of a trailer park). Dad of course was an asshole as usual that his plans didn't work out and needed more work than just looking at a map for blue spots.

And in the afternoon I went to go find my niece for dinner and couldn't find her. I asked mom because she was looking after her and she said she came back with her from the shop just a couple of minutes ago and was "probably" in the cabin. I said I didn't see her come back with her, and mom insisted that she remembered that my niece said she was going to go into the cabin, and not to bother her. I'm still not convinced because I remember seeing mom alone, and I go into the cabin and my niece isn't there. I ask mom where she is and she insists that she's in the cabin I just checked. My sis-in-law sees what's happening and yells out for my niece in the campground and suddenly she appears and says she was in the main office where mom and her were a few minutes ago. Mom insists she came back with us and must've run back up to the office without 5 adults noticing, but my niece swears she was just playing with the phone and didn't know that mom left the office to begin with. Mom then basically flipped out on me for insinuating that she'd ever leave my niece behind or have a memory lapse "when it came to the safety of my grandchildren". No one else defended me because of her being so rustled off, but most of them were fine to "support" me after the fact and say that I shouldn't be mad at her because she's never going to admit she's wrong and her memory issues aren't under her own control.

I'm just really upset that if we had listened to her, we wouldn't have even noticed she was gone, and her memory issues and/or pathological lying could have gotten my niece hurt or in serious trouble. And if I had done the same thing, I would probably have been banished from ever babysitting again.

Just Jesus, man. She needs to get some help or have her shit slapped because this is only going to get worse, and I can't be the only one to tell her to work on fixing this. Everyone else knows this is a problem, but they're all pop flyin' just complaining from the sidelines rather than working together to confront her. This can't go on.

This asshole at work keeps telling me to finish all my work before I clock out because it's not fair to dump it on someone else, meanwhile he'll leave with chicken sitting out on top of the fryer and half the dishes not done the second it hits one minute past his shift.

Apparently parental issues are a recurring theme on AZ.

If we weren't raised by dysfunctional people we wouldn't be browsing forums.

I'm pretty sure most people have issues with their parents, some issues are just bigger than others.

Edit: OH so yesterday my dad and I got in a car wreck. We're both fine, he got a little burned from the airbag and I'm hella sore today but no real injuries. The car is probably totaled though.

What's really bothering me is the fact that my dad has enough stress to deal with without looking to buy a new car, especially since he's only had that one for a few years. And I feel really guilty about not having a real job, not knowing where to find one, having to stay at school another semester and all those expenses, etc etc. I'm really finding it hard to be productive lately, and I don't know why. It's making me feel guilty and stressed but for some reason that doesn't motivate me to do anything, it just makes me anxious which if anything makes it worse.

bleh, friend suddenly got called to go out for like 8 hours, whatever she did i hope she had fun and stuff. I know what we're doing isn't high priority compared to real-life stuff, but it still sucks when I get all hyped up.

I can't control this hype

[Reyo]

Got home earlier this afternoon to discover my 360 missing...and my $400 TV still where I left it...along with all of the military stuff worth thousands of dollars.

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO TAKE THE ONE THING I HAVE WITH EMOTIONAL SIGNIFICANCE?!

AND WHY IS THE RED BOWL FULL OF LOOSE CHANGE MISSING ALSO!?

[Riku]

That sounds more like one of your friends is a douche than it does like a robbery

[Barabba]

Why don't you just use your military training to get it back?

[Reyo]

Yeah but they won't let us take the CS grenades home with us...

"For the best" they reckon...

i saw a really gross video where some cat was in a bedroom with music playing really loudly and it was stressed and it actually jumped out through a window (there wasn't a clear view but you could hear glass breaking) and you could just hear the cat scream

chances are it's okay but i saw this video in a "funny cat compilation" thing. there wasn't any warning to it at all. people actually thought it was funny.

the same compilation had a video where a cat nearly got run over by a bike and nearly ran straight into the side of a moving car's wheel.....

youtube is the worst

Why is it that my iPhone logs me out of this site after ten minutes, but here I am on the Windows phone I haven't touched in months and I'm still logged in? What kind of feature is that. God dang.

[Cori]

Dad canceled his and mom's trip to Georgia yesterday which means I won't get paid to housesit.

But I guess it wound up for the better because today we discovered that dad needs a root canal.




Also our air conditioner died.

Everything is converging on this point.

fucking stupid family and fucking stupid stress and fucking stupid sexist double standards
