What first world problem did you have today?

I saw some assholery on the Internet:

I was listening to a coyote howl this evening. Some fuckstain shot at it. It stopped howling; I don't know if it was hit.

Edit: It's howling again. Maybe the coyote will shit on the asshole's truck.

I had to put air in my tire because it was a little low.

ng again. Maybe the coyote will shit on the asshole's truck.

I don't know why, but I LOL'd at this way too much.

Had to reorder a Wii U game because the case and cover insert was slightly damaged.

Now I have to drive to a store to return this one.

And it's not even an important game, just some crappy $10 filler for the 100% library.

That first world enough?

Probably one of the easiest full sets to obtain... at this point. Good luck!

Didn't get the model # as I just randomly went in when I was in the city last weekend to kill some time and warm up. Mostly warm up 😀

I know they were on the shelf for $299.99, so it had to be one of these:

Was a brown lens with bronze frame and polarized. I don't like the aviator frames that droop a ton which the 264 Mavericks look like they do. From that, I'd assume they were the 247 Cliffhouse model. Solid pair of shades. :thumbsup:

Official website links. They look great.

However, base curve of both is 6 -- Ray Ban aviators (RB3025 model) have a base curve of 6 too, last I checked... I think the 8 is rounder. Both pairs look great, but if you try them on again, try to look for lights being reflected in on the sides. Maui Jims should have an anti-reflective coating but it don't do much for the sun when it's directly behind.

This one appears to have a base curve 8 and looks similar with similar measurements...

"100%?" You got Devil's Third?

Yes, got it when it first came out.

I'm well conditioned the the ridiculous explosion of both new collectors and ebay resellers growing exponentially by the hour, so I'm on the ball with preorders on this stuff.

PS4 and Wii U are both pretty easy since I've been doing them both since they came out and even have sorted new release charts and which ones have CEs I want, etc.

You didn't hear? There's a reprint and the scalpers got screwed. 😀

I'm gonna have to go back with this info and try them on again. The droop I was talking about was technically the height of the lens. I don't like when they're really, really long. I have no clue what the base curve of the ones I tried on were, but I do know exactly where they were on the shelf. I'll probably head back this weekend - I want to get something new before vacation in a few weeks. 😎

I got progressive lenses with a stronger magnification. When I view the forum with the wrong part of the lenses, it looks like it's written in Thai.

Getting wasted on rum right now.... wondering what poverty shit I've been getting wasted on lately: wine. Rum is like a brick in the head drunk, Wine was half a bottle to barely feeling phine.

Try grain alcohol with a mineral water mixer. Goes down smooth but you don't know you're drunk until you fall down.

That feeling when you gotta take a leak but you know you shouldn't cause you're wasted and don't trust yourself to make it in the bowl...

I lost my ear muffs and was too lazy to do a through search for them. I assumed they were lost and ordered another pair off Amazon. I found them this morning, a few hours after the ones from Amazon had shipped. Now I will have to deal with a return to Amazon.

 

[CraKaJaX]

Ran out of food at home this morning, but don't feel like dealing with the lunch rush at Trader Joe's today to re-stock on some things.

Mother offered me a 12 pack of pepsi she got in a three 12 packs for $10 deal but told her I had plenty of soda already.

Got back to apartment to find out I overestimated my stock. 🙁

 

[JEDI]

made and lost 6figures in the stock market annually for the past few years. (buying and selling speculative stocks.)

now when I win or lose 4fgures in the casino, there's no excitement.
might as well watch paint dry.

Haven't had many buyers for my Craigslisted useless shit lately. I am firesale-ing the crap but no dice. I would donate it, but there's a good chance that those accepting donations will tell me to go touch myself or just throw it in the garbage once my back is turned. I'd like to see it used... or stored in some hoarder's heap for the next century.

I'm not shipping, so unless you're in Canada...

Other problem: I'm thinking about Lasik, but I'm more concerned about having to stumble home on drugs than the possibility of going blind.

This morning, I got on an elevator in a downtown building alone, heading for the 35th floor. At the 27th floor, an elevator repairman gets on and we continue up.

After a few seconds there is a loud scraping noise as the elevator continues through the 30th floor. There is an elevator repairman with me, so I am feeling ok... Until he turns to me suddenly, with wide eyes, and says;

"DID YOU HEAR THAT!!!"

Wow, THAT'S not a good sign!

(We got to the 35th floor and the guy took the elevator out of service pending an investigation.)

Get audio? Many $$ for you down the line....unless you're on the ride.😀

Jackpot... think I found a store that buys books AND DVDs. I have a ton of both I want to get rid of, not really concerned about price because after shipping/fees, I'd be out money using eBay, and I barely make anything with Craigslist.

Now I have to hump a bunch of books/DVDs to a store... I hate doing stuff like that.

Studying on a Friday night. All sorts of problems here.... not just first world.......... D:

No heavy drugs for LASIK, go for it! Well they give you tylenol 2's to take as you need to try to sleep immediately after the surgery, but they did nothing for me, I was to phsyced at the fact that I finally had the courage to get it done. I'm super squeamish with eyes so the whole idea of going through the surgery is what bothered me more than the end result. Though I was also worried that for whatever reason something goes wrong.

You do need to go back the next day for a basic checkup though, so you'll want to get a hotel anyway. The place I went to (Dr. Sorgini in Sudbury) actually covers the hotel. It's good to have someone with you that can drive you. I just went with my mom. She was able to do a Costco run at the same time. 😀 Was my first time in one, and it was cool to see all the stuff without glasses, as that was the day after the surgery and when they removed the patches.
