Six Flags is the worst for this.

Posted a refrigerator on Facebook Marketplace for $25. First words in the description are "Compressor needs repair . . ." At least four messages to me "Does it work?" Do this many people seriously go through life without even a bare minimum effort?

Yeah but everything else  might work like the light, and the water thru the door.

"appears" being the operative 

It's $25. It needs repair. Nobody is asking anything specific. Just "does it work"? Description says no, compressor needs repair. If someone asked "does the blower work? The lights? Ice machine?" I'd answer. But "does it work" has already been answered.

I couldn't get $25 for a working fridge in my neighborhood. Bunch of damn cheapskates.

Going rate for working is about $100 or $125. I'm expecting someone to offer me $15 or $20, which I'd take. If it lasts more than a week, I'll just give it away to someone who can fix it.

Will you take $5 for it and deliver it to my house? 

Gotta love those kinds of offers.

I may have brought this up, cant remember.

Anyhow, ive been getting these russian calendar invites. The way google works is even though you dont accept, it shows up on your calendar. The cal is EVERYDAY FOR 5 YEARS. so, it clogs your cal. I have to delete the event usually 3 times a day. Frustrating.

Pig tail off the coffee rant and add on the dumbass standing in front of the register trying to put away his CC while others are waiting to pay. 
Today at the store, similar. Old guy buys something and gets his change. Decides to take all of his paper bills out and reorganize them in numeric order. It took maybe 45 seconds but felt like 5 minutes. He turns around as he is leaving and says 'oh'. That made me more ragey but he was 80 and it was Christmas eve.

I used to give a shit, but this'll be the 10th installment at JerryWorld.  Plus, it's almost a zero% chance that Texas ever plays in that game again the agreement with the Big XII and the Sugar Bowl.  Either the Cotton Bowl is in the the CFP rotation, and we have no chance of making that anytime soon.  Or it's a NY6 Bowl, but even if we don't make the CFP, next up is Sugar Bowl for us.  It's 1 out of every 3 years the Cotton Bowl could even take a Big XII runner-up, and we'd have to make that the year we lose to a team in the conference championship game again that takes the Sugar Bowl spot but is not selected for the CFP, putting us down into the Cotton Bowl.  It's been 16 years since we played in the Cotton Bowl Classic and will probably be another 16 before we play there again.  So they can play it at UNT for all I give a shit.  

What makes me surly is the annual "too many bowl games" whiners at holiday events.  If you're not anxious after this many days of family drama to get out of the house and watch some football, you're insane.  A friend who went to UNC asked me to watch them play Temple today over lunch.  Before I could even ask which bowl game that was and what time, I had already said yes.

Agreed. I mean this time of year, it's bowl games, NBA (which I'm not really into), or Hallmark movies. I guess their is college BB, but that doesn't really interest me until conference play really gets going...

Shoulder checks should be utilized with care. This, however, is an absolute shoulder check situation.

How about assholes on a plane sitting behind you that insist on deboarding before you 

 

I totally agree, but what really pisses me off is the asshole setting in the isle seat in front of me who sets on his ass and doesn’t move until everyone in front has cleared out, then decides to get up block the isle as he struggles to find and get his damn carry on down while blocking his row passengers and the whole plane.    At least, open the damn bin and locate your carry on and have the energy to be ready.

I'd like to see a sentence diagram of that first sentence.

Dirty concrete. Gaw damn that makes me rage. I have a 3600 psi power washer and I wash my driveway twice a year and the same with my lakehouse. Black concrete because of acidic leaves makes me angry. If you dont have a washer hire some crackhead to do it for $100. Respect your property.

You been driving by my house again?

You have any idea how long that would take?
