I mean, lose the "barely" legal part and I agree. I prefer petite women, but in their 20's at least (I'm 35).

Though I'd be more inclined to say CE's preferences tend towards the land-whale size, given how often I see people around here call a girl "thick and sexy" when she's morbidly obese 400+ lbs.

So we got this new employee at the station a couple weeks ago named Amber. She's an idiot. That much is pretty clear within 5 minutes of speaking to her. But this weekend I learned just how stupid she really is.

If you go into the "CSR Functions" menu in our system, there is a button titled "View Amber" which opens a link to a website that tracks any active Amber Alerts in the area. I'm not sure if that's a thing outside the States, but if you haven't heard of it before an Amber Alert is a public alert message sent out whenever a child is reported missing with things like age/clothing/where and when they were last seen, etc.

Amber quit this weekend because she saw this button and now believes that the owner is stalking her and that this button, when pressed, shows him a video feed of wherever she happens to be at the time. She is absolutely convinced of this fact and her response when she was told what it actually did was "if it's for Amber Alerts it would have the word Alert on the button."

I mean.................wow. It may actually be the single stupidest thing I have ever personally witnessed in my life. And that's fucking impressive, especially if you've seen a bunch of my stupid customer topics.

So can anyone beat that?

Dooku could have killed Yoda instead of running into his ship when he dropped the pillar on Obi-Wan and Anakin (and Yoda probably could have killed Dooku when he stopped fighting to make the pillar fall in the first place)

This part always bothered me, tbh. Yoda being as ridiculously powerful as he was, I would have expected him to one-handed and only half paying attention just force-pushed Anakin and Obi-Wan out of the way of the falling pillar without missing a beat in the fight. The fact that he chose to completely stop fighting, put away his lightsaber, and catch the pillar instead just made no sense to me. And then a Sith Lord not taking advantage of the opening he just made to finish off his opponent...

The whole scene is just stupid.

Pouncey was understandable.

Rudolph was trying to rip Garrett's helmet off. Garrett flipped.

Garrett hit Rudolph with the helmet. Pouncey flipped.

There's no "understandable" about either one. One used a weapon. The other kicked a helpless guy in the head while he was on the ground and pinned by 2 other guys. Neither one is justifiable, and neither one deserves to play another snap this year.

Its amazing that the choice with zero votes is the one the cashiers irl always do.

They believe the cheese is just as fundamental as the bread and meat.

It's not. It's a topping.


In my experience, the cheese stays on only if the word "cheese" is in the name. Like a "plain double cheeseburger" would be made with meat, cheese, and bun. But a "plain double" would just be meat and bun.

It doesn't confirm any personal information just answering the phone. All it does is confirm that it is, in fact, a live phone number with an actual person and not just some defunct landline nobody uses anymore.

Granted, that's all their systems need to confirm before they spam your phone number through every telemarketer's call list on the planet.

So yeah, don't answer if you don't recognize the number. If it's important, they'll leave a message and you can call them back.

From the article:
"Granda says the cruiser's dash cam wasn't recording, but data show that officer hit speeds of 59 miles an hour in a 30 mile-per-hour zone. The chase lasted 32 seconds over a quarter mile, across the county-city line."

Yeah, lights and sirens should have DEFINITELY been going by the time you've been chasing for a full 30+ seconds at double the posted speed limit.

You're trying to stop a car for driving dangerously. In order to do that, yes, you need to drive dangerously too. But that's why you have sirens. So you can let people know that some dangerous shit is going down and they should be on alert. You know...to prevent shit like literally this exact scenario from happening.

Seems like pure incompetence to me, tbh. I don't think he was trying to do or get away with anything shady. I just think he was an idiot who probably shouldn't have been in a position of such responsibility in the first place.

That's annoying enough to deal with, but this guy also adamantly demands a receipt for every purchase. Even if it's literally 25 cents for a cup of ice. And then about 90% of the time, I watch him walk outside, crumple up the receipt, and throw it into the trash as he leaves. I mean seriously...what the fuck, dude?

i went to therapy before and it was pretty useless
i just told my mom i felt better so i didnt have to go anymore


What kind of therapy was it? There are quite a few different schools of thought on the subject that all work in subtly different ways and in subtly different circumstances. Try a different one. And just try to remember that, in therapy, you get out what you put in. So if you just go through the motions and don't actually put any effort into it, you're not going to see real changes. But that's not the fault of the therapy.

I highly recommend listening to this podcast:
https://www.npr.org/2015/01/09/375928124/dark-thoughts

They talk about a few different ideologies various kinds of therapy use, and it may give you some insight into which might work best for you and give you some direction in searching for a therapist that could really help.

and this may sound childish but i dont feel like it


Which is precisely the problem you claim to want to fix. At some point, you have to just get off your ass and take that first step. Call a therapist and set up an appointment. Even if you don't feel like it. I bet you don't feel like being miserable anymore either, but you're definitely still doing the things that make you that way. It hasn't worked so far, so what's the harm in trying something different this time?
