The fact that there seem to be only idiots or worse incompetent idiots working for <acertainbigamericancompanythatalsomadedeepblue>. It's not even "sad" anymore, it's unbelievable that company still has a positive reputation, internationally. I seriously do not see why.
What is even worse is that their devs seem to have no pride whatsoever. I cannot explain any other way why they'd spit out such unbelievable ridiculous incompetent code.
And when I, as QA, try to do my best to fix it by raising bugs, they even argue about every dot in the specification, instead of finally realizing that this denying of "common sense" hurts them the most. The client is already very unhappy with them and this sort of behaviour is a big part of why they're so unhappy.
My 8 year old son went missing. We thought he was playing next door, until the boy next door came to see if he wanted to play. Cue panic and searching. He's never run away before, didn't have an argument, doesn't usually wander.
Long story short, I found him as he was walking home, backpack on his back. Turns out he was 'bored' and decided to go on an 'adventure'. He knows in future all adventures need to be run past the boss (aka me). I am so glad he was fine, just went for a walk, but the little ratbag gave he a heartattack.
Kinda cute though was what he packed - he had clothes for a 3 day trip (no underwear), his money box, a favourite cuddle toy, and about a million books.
Being on a students budget is hard enough, but dealing with thieving flatmates REALLY ticks me off, ESPECIALLY when work for last week was cancelled and my budget is stretched even further. I'm typically generous enough that if someone is in need and asks, I will say yes unless I genuinely can't cover the request myself.
That being said, I had pulled out a packet of mince that I got and was planning on cooking, then splitting into smaller portions and freezing so I had meals to last the rest of the week. Cue this afternoon, I go to the kitchen and find that the frypan had recently been used and left uncleaned with a residue of what looks suspiciously like mince and bolognese sauce. Turns out that one of my flatmates had some mates over and decided to help himself to the mince, cooking it and eating the ENTIRE FREAKING PACKET between him and his mates.
Have had words with the landlord and said flatmate has been warned that if he so much as touches another flatmates belongings, he will be EVICTED. That being said, I'm hungry. At least I had some bread to make a sandwich. T_T

Maybe you ought to remind him that sudden rains of millions and millions of spiders are evidently a thing that can happen in Australia.
I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.
That's when you become evil. Buy thing. Allow to spill and/or poison it with something that's not lethal, but will cause discomfort. If allowed to spoil, place now spoiled food in container with not yet spoiled date. Hilarity. Alternatively, start developing a taste for extremely ethnic food.
Turning a gallon of milk into buttermilk with some vinegar is always a good one.
I was finally coming to terms with the fact that I ought to go register my guns with the LVPD and then the news came out that the governor is about to sign a bill that makes it so I don't have to.

Eh, wouldn't work in my case. Said flatmates are all Filipino and Indian and already eat primarily ethnic foods. More than once I've come back home from work and they have stunk out the main living area, so I've had to leave the front door open to air the room out.
Already complained to the landlord about THAT little tidbit some time ago, but nothing came of it.

Cyndarinused Flamethrower! It was super effective.
I walked into a bar last night and ran into three guys I had previously dated all hanging out with each other. It was super awkward and I feel like it was a secret meeting of people who now hate me. I ran into a fourth as I was walking out of the bar. I can only assume he was on his way to the meeting.
I was moments away from raving about viewing the world's cutest house tomorrow, with the intention of buying it.. only to discover a sale is pending as of about five hours ago. ~X(
Went up to my parents farm to spend some time with the family today. Saw a massive wasp nest while I was out and about.
'nuff said.
You should have moved it to the glomdoring. We already have one giant wasps nest.
Wasp nests always make me uneasy due to the fact that my brother is HIGHLY allergic to wasp stings (He was almost killed by one back when he was younger - he always carries an epi-pen with him these days.)

I contracted some very odd variety of non-itching, non-burning pink-eye at work last week, and finally went to the doctor about it today. They washed it out and told me to come back in the morning to see if I still had it.
Well, ok. I go back to work, eat my supper, and immediately choke on something, running to the bathroom to throw it up violently. My right eyeball, already swollen, decides to burst blood vessels all over it and fill with blood.
The next seven hours were spent inspecting steel pipes with absolutely no depth perception, as well as driving them around on a forklift. Juuuuuust peachy.

Dear Plumbers,
I do appreciate you coming to look at our leaky bathroom. But, 12:30 pm on Thursday is not Wednesday morning, which is when you said you were coming and when we sat in the house doing nothing instead of what we planned to do.
Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"

Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
Letting me know when you delete my posts makes me a happy camper. Thanks.

I'm cold and have a headache and my depression is a bit rough right now and I still haven't heard back from immigration and one of the girls at work is making my life a misery when I work with her, and because I'm depressed people think I keep flaking out on them but literally all I want to do is stay in bed all day and never leave which means my house is messy which makes me feel worse, but then I feel too bad to do it so it's this giant cycle, and my mum might have a brain tumour and everything is crap.

Okay I'm done. I would like a hug.
I'd hug you

USPS uggggh. I have to waste my saturday morning picking up my package from the postoffice now. The most annoying thing is, they said we were not home, yet the house was packed when they supposedly tried leaving the package...I can't help but assume they didn't even try.

Do..Do you wanna skype about it? I know how the depression and house messy works.
