What first world problem did you have today?

[alkemyst]

I have a pair of first gen Beats that I won (whatever the $300 pair on release was) and they are decent. I just expected there to be better wireless, noise cancelling ones available. I don't care about price so much, as I just want a great pair I can use everywhere (around the house, gym, work) and I need active noise cancelling along with over ear.

The Beats Wireless are noise cancelling AFAIK, the Parrot Zik as well, the Bose QC25's are considered one of the best noise cancelling (our engineers use them to make phone calls in loud data centers), but corded.

For noise-cancelling performance these are mentioned a lot but pricey: Samsung Level Overs http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KGGK738

The problem is the Parrot looks to have subpar sound over bluetooth. And, everything I've read about the Beats puts them atop. the only drawback I've heard about the Beats is you can't charge while listening, so if they die, you have to wait. But, the battery life seems to be pretty long.

I will have to check out those Samsung ones though.

Wanted to go Black Friday shopping, already have everything I want

 

[alkemyst]

Was waiting in the self checkout line at Costco and some fucktard standing in my line with no cart and her husband in the other line. They were both next, but he the proceeded to cut me off.

Needless to say I never saw someone move so fast through the parking lot after explaining not making it to the beginning of the year. I only had two items. They had a cart load. I waited for them to finish

My 101 piece bit set spilled and it took me a quarter of an hour to put it back together.

I wanted to order a pizza online, but the place does their online ordering through Hungerrush.com, and that website was offline.


I had to call in and talk to a person.

I was hoping for a 12% Xmas bonus, but I only got 10.5%. :\

I was going to get Photoshop Elements for $60 during the Black Friday sale, then I cheaped out, started looking for ways to do things with MS Paint... It turns out that MS Office 2010 includes MS Office Picture Manager, which has everything I want in a familiar MS interface. And I never knew about it -- thought it only worked inside Excel, Word, or Powerpoint.

A true crime against humanity

Speaking of crimes against humanity, I'm looking at a libpng tutorial, and they are using goto.

Keep getting nailed with Star Wars spoilers.


In fact since its over a year away I dont think I will get by unscathed. I stopped watching TV years ago, but every fuckin place on the internet is posting star wars pics and clips. Its gonna have more hype the resurrection of Jesus.

 

[Leros]

I went to see the Hunger Games movie today. A few of the lines were so bad that the entire theater burst into laughter.

I hate this, when people keep spilling spoilers on something that's not even out yet. At least wait till it's out FFS!

That's why I always avoid anything related to something that I'll probably want to watch when it comes out.

Heck even TV series, people should not spill any spoilers until a season is actually over. Lot of people like to wait and watch the episodes all at once.

I took a hot shower today...and popped one off for good measure.

Trying to get my Sirius radio to connect to WIFI, I finally said fuck it and pluged it into the computer and ran the recovery program on it. Now she sees the freaking Internet.

Just stick with your porn sites...chances are no Star Wars talk will be there.

I deliberately parked where an SUV wouldn't park next to me. Come back from shopping, there's a GMC Yukon parked next to me.

The ending was terrible. It was like when they killed the dog in I Am Legend. Everyone just kind of shuffled out of the theater like "welp..."

I am also not a fan of PSH, but I actually have really enjoyed his performances in the Hunger Games movies.

I saw so many trailers for Big Hero 6 (which was actually great, btw) that I felt like I had watched half the movie when I actually saw it

I slept for 10 hours straight and had to hurry to do groceries.

Last night I was innocently watching YT videos and dozed off drooling on myself when my work phone rang. A call out. Some dumbass, probably a semi driver hit the overhead phone cables and ripped down 2 telephone poles. Was out till 2 am and froze my balls off.
How could people do such a thing and ruin my warm cozy night like that?

Then today I just spent $250 on Newegg on a new camera for my wife xmas present. After I have already blown some $1700 this month...mostly on myself of course.

Headed to the in-laws to do Thanksgiving again.

Vacuum broke last week. Got a replacement for like 60% off on Black Friday. Have to wait until Wednesday for free delivery. Floors are getting pretty dirty...
