My pad thai for lunch was not spicy enough, so I ordered another one. Now I have two dinner size plates of pad thai.

I get alphabetical sorting but seriously, shouldn't it be listed in order of which country the product sold the most?

Could also do it with geotagging / fencing and just default to whatever country you're in at the moment.

I finally understand what it feels like for a man to walk into Victoria's Secret.

I went to Home Depot tonight...I think I stood there for about 15 seconds just trying to figure out what direction to start walking in.

Sorry but those are not first world problems. Those are actual problems. For example my big problem today was being unable to decide which butcher block table to buy. First world problem.

We rent a 53' bucket lift to paint our house. I hatehatehate heights but after a while I just get on with it. Next thing you know I'm hanging outside the gating so I can reach that one tough spot.

I'm too cheap to order UberEats twice in one day. Guess I'll have to settle for whatever snack I have in my pantry. Ugh...

There we go. First world.

I had a buddy in high school who once made me a pretty decent meal out of Wonder Bread, ketchup, and parmesan cheese.

I could’ve shipped my car and flown to Louisiana, but I didn’t feel like spending an additional $2k. So now I’m driving 1,080 miles.... it snowed 6 inches last night and I have to hit the road right now. The next 17 hours is gonna suck.

Tree roots are starting to break through the retaining wall holding up the hills in my back yard. Going to have to cut the tree down and repair the wall.

I like what it says in Run Silent's sig:

"Don't sweat petty things....or pet sweaty things."

PS - part of the privilege of owning a home.
