There was no soy sauce in the fridge at work for my chicken and rice microwave meal so I used Frank's Red Hot sauce instead. Not too shabby but I wanted soy sauce, goddamnit.

Tried out Opera 25.Oh god...what a mess of a browser.
(The interface is a disaster.Wish they had something like the classic theme restorer extension that Firefox 33 offers.)

Uninstalled it and went back to Opera 12.17 x64,which I can stand using.

I have to go do a pee test at the Doc's office in an hour and instead of sitting at my desk all day drinking water I have been out in the shop sweating all day. Gotta start chugging!!!

The cash checking function of my brokerage is either busted or non-existent, so I accidentally borrowed money to buy stock... I had to spend $2 to make it positive again.

People on the internet keep misunderstanding the point of a thread and continually post complaints that are not only not restricted to the first world, but are actually more common in the third world, thus completely missing out on the chance to ironically consider minor problems as compared to one's privilege.

When I contract Ebola then you'd better believe I'm going to put it in this thread for the sweet, sweet, ironing. That's why my last post was about flies.

I'm experiencing extreme consternation over whether to flash my android phone (Galaxy S4) now and upgrade from 4.2 to 4.4, or wait/hope that a 5.0 rom gets developed.

having a stupid issue with the bluetooth in my new car that I'm pretty sure is an issue with my phone (every time I turn the car off and back on again, I have to disable/re-enable BT on my phone for it to pair up)

Official rom?

If so flash it with kies, you can't really go wrong and it's got a recovery thing as well.

I can't have falling leaves on my desktop this year. Compiz has been unmaintained for awhile now, but I could always get something going with it. I seem to have gotten an update since winter that broke it. It launches, but I don't have any window decorations. I thought I'd be clever and install kwin because it had a snow plugin, and I could change the graphics to leaves, but that got removed due to incompatibilities :^(

I'll try playing with it this week, but I'm not gonna put in herculean effort to get it working. It's just a fun novelty, but I miss having it.

I disabled Compiz because it was sucking up 3GB of RAM on my machine.

It's freezing here and I put on a throw blanket rather than turn the heat on because I'm cheap...
