Just trying to enjoy the 4th with my family at McKinney Falls State Park and a group of people come out with their giant loudspeaker and start blaring their music. Ignore requests to turn it off. I go over there and turn it off and then it turns into a huge scene. Another guy out there too backed me up. Told the park ranger about it but they responded way too late. Instead of trying to ban people drinking beer in parks, they need to ban these idiots with these giant loudspeakers ruining it for everyone else. Who else feels this way?

People who vape not being mindful of where they are blowing the smoke or thinking that it’s okay to smoke in public places where smoking cigarettes is banned. If it’s not okay to blow cigarette smoke in people’s faces, why is it okay just because it is strawberry flavoured?

Just to add, second hand vape is not healthy.

So my parents decided to get a cat 2 years back. Fine, cool, I love her. But now she's got some stomach issues going on and instead of taking her to the vet immediately my dad is being a total ass about it and my mom won't shut up about how broke they are and how they can't afford it. Like??? If you can't afford basic vet care don't get a pet in the first place.

I give absolutely 0 fucks if it costs $5000 lmao. You should have thought of the worst case scenario when you were getting something LIVING. It's a living being that depends on you completely. You brought her into this house, you're responsible for her, end of story. I don't give a shit about anything else. Not your stupid sob stories, not your stupid excuses and certainly not your dumbass excuse to be broke.

I don't have a job right now so I can't cover the bill myself, which makes this so much worse bc I'm watching her potentially suffer and I have zero power to just fix it. I did not buy her, they did. And instead of them feeling the looming responsibility, I'm the only one that gives a shit about her. I'm the only fucking one who is trying to work something around and calling vets and shit. These two cannot do it. And they have the nerve to tell me I live off of them and am not responsible for anything. Yeah no shit, because I'm not the one popping out kids I can't afford or taking in a cat I can't take care of.

And their lack of financial planning is already an issue with me because these two decided to pop out 3 kids with no financial planning.

I am so angry I can barely think straight. If you're going to bring up money every time your pet (or kid) needs something, you should not have gotten one. It's not that complicated.

I want to get out of this shit house and go no contact with them once and for all. They're acting like the least responsible people alive right now. The rage is so blinding I could genuinely break everything around me.

I’m sorry they’re just so fucking stupid i’m over it.
Oooooh big boom boom, big boom boom so shiny pretty colorsss derrrrrrr
I’ve seen them. Yeah, they look the exact same as they always have and there’s no business keeping me awake before a morning shift setting this dumb shit off on the THIRD ffs
All it tells me is wildfires, littering, drunk driving, and pure idiocy. I’d feel more patriotic in a fucking portable bathroom.
Peace.

I live with a couple with a couple of relatives in their two bed, one bath, one floor house. I’m staying with them while I save for a car and pay off some debt I owe. One relative I have issues with more than the other. I try to be nice, clean up around the house, respectful of her space. She pick an attitude, gets pushy, or complains about me. I feel smothered in this small house. It’s her furniture, her food in the fridge, the house decorated how she wants it. I feel backed in a corner, I keep nearly all my belongings in the room. I’m also having to put my groceries in the old fridge out back but it’s been having problems keeping cold. I’ve been having to throw away warm milk I didn’t get to finish. She wanted more space for her food in the fridge in the kitchen.

Seriously someone sorter with dash you'll make a motherfucking tonne of money- stoners like myself would very greatly appreciate the shit out of that

Yes weed is legal here.

I work full time & commute to work. On my days off I like to sit in my garden & relax but I can't because my neighbour works from home, in their conservatory with the door wide open on teams calls all day. Its infuriating. Still can't even work out what they do because they just seem to chip in agreeing every so often.

The audio is awful, everyone is wearing AirPods, and there’s that weird blurred background everyone loves for some reason. I hate it. The worst is when you know that this is a rich person who can easily have a proper camera setup so just email the questions and have them answer with a nice camera and mic properly. I don’t need to see some conversational discussion to hear your chosen expert’s opinion

What's a completely normal thing that instantly annoys you for no reason?

I'll start: when someone says "I'll be there in 5 minutes" and shows up 45 minutes later. 😭 Curious to know everyone else's irrational annoyances

I’ve only been active on Reddit for a couple of times now just asking for advice but I seriously want to delete the app. I will get everything but advice here, only people being rude to me, making fun of me and grammar mistakes for no reason making me just want to delete every post I make. It’s like the main goal of everyone who responds to anything I say is just to prove me wrong and make me feel bad and to not help at all.

I ask because according to large swatches of delusional Reddit posters, they’ve been cancelled or will be postponed in some magic form before they happen.

Just checking to see if we’re still on for mid terms or ..?

And if they do happen, can these people finally shut the hell up and be held accountable for their rabid fear mongering?

That’s my complaint. Tired of looking at this delusional nonsense.

I was a really big fan of “The Amazing Digital Circus” and was sad to see how the show fell apart (in both writing and its voice actors.) When the finale first came out I saw a lot of ride or die fans defending the show by saying “critics lack media literacy and cannot pick up on subtle hints”. Which yes of course l people missed out on some things ! However there was honestly a lot of plot holes, and a severe lack of character development. Ofcourse the lore side of things were answered after the show ended but they shouldn’t have to be. People don’t lack media literacy because an author forgot to tie up their loose ends in the actual show.

People are just mad toxic and don't give help, memes are unfunny, even the NSFW is bad

This app is so toxic!!! I can’t bloody deal with this shit anymore. Funny thing is I’m not even on this stupid app. My wife is. And anytime a random nobody posts something there, she gets a fucking FOMO and all hell breaks loose on me.

My whole fucking day is now ruined because of this shit. We’re peacefully spending our day, busy with work and suddenly she comes at me asking why I have not purchased fifa wc tickets for a game thats happening in my city. I asked her why it suddenly became so important and this drama unfolded into how I’m a selfish fuck who doesn’t care about her and what she wants. All this, after the fact that she hasn’t watched a single minute of football and has 0 interest in the WC.

I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THAT SHE WANTED TO WATCH A FUCKING GAME THIS BAD!!!

ALL THIS BS STEMMED FROM THE FACT THAT SHE SAW STORIES POSTED ON IG AND SHE NOW HAS FOMO THAT HER FRIENDS ARE WATCHING THE GAME AND SHE IS AT HOME!

I am now desperately trying to get tickets for the next game here. Life is hard. I hate myself.

I don’t think this spoils anything too major, but I added a spoiler tag just to be safe.

What makes the original trilogy great is that even though it was an action series, the movies were also something more than action flicks because of the unique camaraderie/chemistry between the characters and the deep role of spirituality in the plot.

For instance, we see Han change from a reluctant participant in events to a loyal and sacrificial friend. Luke and Obi Wan have chemistry immediately after meeting, playing off one another to draw us into the story. Even interactions with minor characters come off as very meaningful, such as Luke’s conflict with his aunt and uncle.

Additionally, the Force manages to intrigue us from its first mention. We hear enchanting, mysterious music when Obi Wan speaks of it. In his famous choking scene, Vader brings up questions about faith and the significance of our existence in the universe. Then, of course, there is Luke’s training with Yoda and its themes of faith, self, introspection, facing fear, patience, and letting go of attachment. I could go on.

With the sequels, by contrast, we get lots of action but (with the exception of certain parts of TLJ) none of the depth. The filmmakers attempt to recreate the wonderfully done dynamics between characters in the original trilogy, but fail to do so. The Force is an action prop, not something that draws us toward spiritual contemplation.

TFA: Largely a remake of ANH - but without the depth. Endless action scenes meant for thrills and none of the profound spirituality of the original movies. Ford/Fisher’s roles feel like fan service rather than something that adds to the plot.

TLJ: I actually like this sequel the best because there are moments where the Force is dealt with in a deep way: I enjoy Rey’s training with Luke and Ren‘s discussion of ending the cycle of the Light vs. Dark Side. However, despite these instances, the rest of the movie is just mindless action.

ROS: This is not only a bad movie, but one of the worst movies ever made. There is only the skeleton of a plot. A bunch of random events happen, many of which have the unintentional quality of unbearable cheesiness. The only good aspect of the film is a few comical 3CPO moments. I want to watch the movie again to see if I can enjoy it from a ‘so bad it’s good’ perspective.

Oh my gosh.

I just came back from the grocery store.

I was in line checking out.

There was a group of 3 behind me. Nobody behind them.

They decide to stand almost shoulder to shoulder to me. One of them stood behind me. I can see the pores of the girl next to me. She was watching the screen where it shows what I'm buying/price/all of that. I tried to put my hand kind of over the screen. I wasn't buying anything weird but the fuck are you looking at my purchases for? And then I felt uncomfortable putting my card in because she was right there!! I don't think she was looking for my card number but still!! Move!!!

As the cashier was ringing my stuff up I kept looking at them all... I thought if I kept looking at them they would get the hint to... back off... but of course that didn't happen. I need to say something next time. I'm working on my social skills but I did say under my breath: "youre so close to me" but i was not loud enough so of course they didn't hear.

I am so bewildered how they think thats okay? To stand so close to a stranger when there was a lot of space behind them?? The entire check out line. Remember there's nobody behind them!!

I vented to my mom and she said they probably weren't thinking. Which... I understand. But what the fuck. MOVE!

Thank you for reading. I'm going to eat something now. Have a great day everyone!

(Oh by the way i usually like to bag my items but there was a bagger there doing it)
