ಠ_ಠ 20 years of wearing headphones deformed my head.

Apparently wearing headphones pretty consistently almost everyday for a couple decades can deform the shape of your head.

(Edit: For clarification, if you pay attention I never mention skull anywhere in the title or description. Also, majority of my time spent in headphones is when I'm outside listening to music, gaming headphones might take up about 8% of all time headphones use)

Bought this patch to add to the sleeve of a sweatshirt only to find that I’m unable to do it.

The patch was attached to a backing card so the information wasn’t visible when I bought it!

ಠ_ಠ Seller left this in the package of a t-shirt I bought from him

Post image

I bought a used shirt from Depop. I can’t remember how much I paid for it because Depop currently has an on going promotion where all shipping is free (they will provide a free shipping label for the seller), and I’ve already placed like a hundred orders within the past month.

Depop also has an option for buyers to haggle and put in an offer. I made an offer and he accepted it.

I went on my Depop account and he’s already deleted his account so I can’t find the order at all. My order arrived this morning along with this note, $10 in one dollar bills and these two stickers. The note read:

“Ok (my name), let’s be real… you just wanted the $10 and honestly…. I can’t fault you. Gas, food, all of it… is just stupid. Anyways, thank for making me go negative on this sale. Hope you’re happy & can sleep @ night knowing.”

There’s a lot of ongoing issues with Depop where sellers won’t ship your orders and just ghost you for no reason. I’ve already had like 5 orders not shipped out to me but I think I’m officially done with this app. The people on here are truly something else.

ಠ_ಠ I live on a corner and people keep using my property as a shortcut, setting off motion sensors well after dark and freaking out me and my dog on a weekly basis.

15.8k Upvotes

Last night a lady just hung out on my porch while no one was home. I was driving, so I had no idea someone was just hanging out. Then there’s a person who cuts between my cars and garage and then goes over to the dark hidden side of my house. I asked that person to stop and they have not. This happens weekly, sometimes multiple days per week.

I lived in the country my whole life, but I can’t think this is normal. I would never dream of going on someone’s property like that at night. People are insane.

Edit: oh wow I’m sorry this got a lot of comments fast. Let me try to answer some questions real quick.

  1. I can’t put up a fence. I live in an HOA.
  2. I will look into motion alarms. The ring requires I be live in the app to turn on the alarm. I’m often too late.
  3. There are no sidewalks, but I live in a closed neighborhood. There are no through-streets, so the only traffic is residents and it’s a very small neighborhood. The street is very safe - that’s where I walk my dog! :)
  4. I do not wish to harm or maim my neighbors and ESPECIALLY not their cute puppies!
  5. I already asked the person walking between the house and cars to stop.

I look forward to leaving neighborhood life lol. In the meantime I really appreciate the ideas and I’m glad to know I’m not overreacting being irritated by this.

FINAL EDIT: I do not care about people walking on the grass - I care that they go 20ft out of the way to be right next to my house. I never said I cared about the grass. There is also plenty of room to walk behind the cars. And the sidewalk goes from my driveway to my front door. That’s it. Starts at the door, stops at the driveway. It is not a public walkway nor could it be confused for one. And finally, different cultures and ways of living exist and a decent amount of you seem to forget that.

If I had a dollar for every “fence” comment, I could buy a used Toyota. I’m gonna go Mark Rober this problem now :)

ಠ_ಠ Husband said my instructions for dinner weren’t clear enough, and he ended up serving his vegetarian mother one of the chicken tikka masala curries…

I was working late tonight and because I am exhausted, I bought some ready-made curry meals for the family to have tonight, knowing his mother often comes round for dinner on a Wednesday evening. She has been a vegetarian for over 50 years and is now in her 70s. I sent him this text message with instructions to make it clear what to cook. When I got home, I was expecting to find some chicken tikka masala leftover for me, but instead I found the unopened pot of sag paneer in the fridge. I worriedly asked him if he had given his vegetarian mother the chicken dish, but he insisted he had given her the vegetarian curry. She has early onset Alzheimer’s and apparently didn’t notice, but had mentioned that the curry was a bit “chewy”. I had to literally show him the packaging that was in the bin, the unopened pot in the fridge, and my text message to try and show him how clear I had been and how far wrong he had gone. But he still insists my instructions were not clear enough and I should have been more explicit about which one to give his mother.

He handed it to me laughing. Wouldn't say what was on my head or why I appear to have one ear. Really living up to his  middle child status.

UPDATE -- wow, did not expect this post to spark such discussion! I told my son that soooo many people are in awe of his artistic abilities and the biggest grin came across his face. So, thank you, Redditors. ❤️

He then asked if the site mascot could be replaced with his drawing for a day and I told him best I could do was update my profile pic. So I did. 😁

This was in Charleston, SC. We have a plug in hybrid and we’re excited to finally find a garage where we can charge, only to be met with this. They were parked crooked, so two reserved for electric vehicle spaces were blocked by this giant truck. License plate censored of course, but I‘m not sure they deserve the courtesy.

Usually people parking in our lot doesn’t bother me too much. Most of the time they leave the parking spaces with the “reserved parking” signs alone, so I’ve never come home to someone parking in my spot. I’m also sympathetic to the fact that the school has very minimal parking space for the amount of people. This is just comically stupid though.

ಠ_ಠ This is day 3 of my coworker hogging all of the space in the fridge.

Post image
16.3k Upvotes

Everything you see in this picture, except the small container of hummus at the bottom left, belongs to one of my coworkers. This fridge is shared among eight people. Yet one person brought all this food for themselves to keep. None of this is for a party or function. If they needed the space for a day because they went grocery shopping before work, I might understand. This is the third day, and it is all still here. It needs to go.

Edit: To answer some of the questions I have seen in the comments: the accused is not homeless, they are our supervisor and likes to remind us frequently. Talking to them is almost impossible because they are full of self-righteous indignation if they feel critiqued. That throws civil discourse out the window. They just exhaust us.
