Assumed I spelled my OWN NAME wrong

I stopped into this Tim Hortons to use the restroom and pick up the iced cappuccino that my mother in law requested. They just installed these hand dryers that play ads while your hands dry. There is no paper towel. I guess I'll just wipe my hands on my pants next time.

The mildly infuriating part is that there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the old hand dryers, but they replaced them with these ad ones, at the expense of not fixing actual problems with the other aspects of the restroom.

Thank you for letting me get that out. I feel better now.

I just wanted to download a mobile game like CSGO. What is this? How does Google allow this, how does it allow it without checking? When I try to install a game, it fails the test.

Very annoying

These trashy dog owner go to the trouble of bringing a bad with them, bending down and actually picking up theirs precious fur baby’s crap. And then they tie the plastic bag to a random tree. As of the shit fairy will come and collect it.
South east England for those wondering.

I’m a registered Democrat btw. Regardless of political affiliation the texting in general is off the charts and blocking/ texting “stop” does nothing to slow it down.

The cleaning man always mops with a lot of water during rush hour.

I hate it.

A) Nice typo.

B) The political junk mail is beyond out of control this election season.

C) Is there even a regulation mandating this?!

I’m genuinely scared to ask why it is wet. The sink it’s possible, but knowing him it definitely could have fallen in the toilet.

I have a friend, a good person; she has one very annoying quirk. She has dietary restrictions due to her health, but the way she behaved was annoying. Anytime we went out to eat, she would start by examining the menu. I would forget until it was too late that she'd have some kind of problem with the food. We went back and forth a lot about what she was going to order. Then a lot of questions to the wait staff. Then the food comes. She would look at it, stare at it, and start picking at it with her fork. Sometimes it would be a nod of "no, no, ", I'm not going to be able to eat this. Then a conversation with the staff, who would offer something else, but the second plate might be worse, according to her. I would be so annoyed at myself for forgetting about these issues before deciding to join her for lunch. I wanted to tear my hair out!

I've received a ridiculous number of political text messages lately, and the tactics are becoming increasingly invasive and manipulative.

Just look at the screenshot. Within a matter of hours, I've received messages from multiple numbers reminding me to vote, claiming that public records show I didn't vote in previous elections, and even bringing up the voting history of people living in my household.

But here's where things really crossed the line.

They actually contacted my mother to tell her I hadn't voted yet.

Think about that for a moment. Political campaigns or organizations are apparently using voter records and whatever personal information they've collected to contact people's family members about their voting participation.

For what purpose? To create social pressure? To embarrass people into voting? To get family members to confront each other about something that should be an individual decision?

Whatever the motivation, it's an incredibly invasive tactic.

I understand that whether someone participated in an election can be obtained from public voter records. But there's a massive difference between having access to that information and deliberately weaponizing it to pressure voters through their families.

And it's not just one message. It's the sheer volume, the repeated follow-ups, the different phone numbers, and the increasingly personalized language. Some messages pretend to be friendly conversations. Others create urgency. Some reference household members or previous elections, almost as if they're trying to demonstrate how much they know about you.

At what point does political outreach stop being voter engagement and start becoming harassment?

What's particularly frustrating is that these organizations seem completely oblivious to how counterproductive their tactics are.

If your campaign needs to bombard my phone, monitor my voting participation, and contact my relatives to pressure me into voting, you've already given me a pretty strong impression of how little you respect personal boundaries.

I'm perfectly capable of making my own decisions about whether, when, and whom to vote for. I don't need political organizations attempting to manufacture guilt or family conflict to motivate me.

And for the record, **I'm not against encouraging people to vote. I'm against using personal information and family relationships as tools of political pressure.** Those are two very different things.

The irony is that these tactics have accomplished something: they've made me significantly less receptive to the organizations responsible for them.

I'm curious how widespread this has become. Have other people been getting messages referencing their voting history or household members? More importantly, has anyone else had political organizations contact their relatives specifically to pressure them about voting?

Because if this is becoming a standard campaign strategy, I think we need a serious conversation about where voter outreach ends and intimidation begins.

First of all, I ordered a large because my wife and I just share them, they gave me the order in the "regular" size container.

When I confronted the manager she said we only have regular containers, so I said at least fill it up, I paid $5 for like 11 fries?? Wtf, she ended up giving me a second little regular box because I wasnt quiet anout paying $5 for a ridiculous product, when I checked it in the car, I swear to you, it had 5 fries in it... bro FUCK YOU Firehouse subs in Aiken SC.

For the record, three weeks ago I ordered us large fries to split and they did it then too, but I didnt cause a fuss, I just dealt with my wife complaining about my stupid decision...I swear I think its intentional and they just claim they dont have large fries containers. Ughhh

Delivering a toolbox to someone's house today, delivery instructions say "call 30 mins ahead", and I just know I'm gonna hear "But why didn't anyone call and tell me you were coming?? I SAID 30 MIN HEADS UP!!"

All manner of verbal protests over the years, from the most minor, to me simply overreacting do nothing lol

Plastiboo, I love you, but why did you do this? 😪

All the white bits on the actual power bank are scratches and the red bit in the charger is the inner wires

Don’t mind my fingernails btw it’s paint not dirt

Three full ones and this. The trash can is right next to the fridge.

I’m having like the worst week of my life, and the squirrels decided to join the universe in continuing it. This morning I went to take the trash bag out to the bin outside my back gate. After successfully depositing it, turned around to head back in, but the gate wouldn’t open, I pulled and shook it and nothing. Finally realized that the squirrel who has been taunting my cats by sitting on my gate left a nut between the planks, that had rolled perfectly into the edge of a knot. (And in my bones I know it’s the same squirrel) In my pjs and bunny slippers I then had to scramble around to find a stick to shimmy in there and pop it out. so I could get back inside.

Flat I just moved into, contractors couldn't even be bothered to take the photo frame of the front door before painting it. It simply hangs on a nail.

Just... Why?
