so its turning out that nothing on netflix will play for more than about 15 seconds without stuttering and crashing the entire app. really cool and awesome. apparently the solution to this is clearing the tv's cache but none of the directions online telling me how to do that are correct about the menus my tv has, even searching for the specific model. so frustrating

kicking around lqr vs wwx nonsense, as one does:
lqr: with all due respect to your sainted father he had the second worst taste in lovers i've ever seen.
wwx: who has the worst?
lqr: MY NEPHEW
wwx: yeah, that's fair. hurtful, but fair
lqr: i didn't say i was talking about you!

working in a grocery store as a stocker/picker other non-customer service job and then getting pulled away from your actual ffucking job by a customer who can't find the whole entire chip aisle is like accidentally triggering a cutscene that you dont give a shit about amd Can't Fucking Skip and if you choose a dialogue option that's even a little bit mean it starts a combat that yojre not allowed to win. you get game over. no save files.Fired

I'm not sure where in the world this'll go but I just want to say
I weirdly enjoy being in a customer service job. This might be because I've rarely run into rude people (or, let's face it, I'm 90% sure at this point rude comments roll past my oblivious mind) or because I enjoy the people I work with
But I love the customer interactions. Like a parent sending their kid in to purchase a meal and have a small lesson in confidence. The man you recommend something to try on his food and now that's his go-to thing. The regulars that come in and know you by name
The stranger you meet in the drive through, who offers you some of her tea. And in return you give her a extra treat because you were warmed by such a thing
The kind folks who give you and your work-team food they made at home just for you all because you've helped them
It's just so heartwarming. Even the grumpy and angry customers. It's not my fault you've had a bad day, but I hope that maybe, just maybe
One well-made bit of food helps it to be a little brighter

Since you kids are in the area I was wondering if I could buy some Pokéballs from you? It's a particular ball I believe that could and still only can be gotten during strange events like this one! Let me know if you're still selling stuff.
@trainer-alyx
Oh, Yullo. Yep, we're still selling products over here. We're thinking on trying out that 'Pelipper Mail' service too, in case distance ever becomes an issue. You're more than welcome to look through our stock- we have enough of everything on there, I think. Except for Leaden Balls. ...Still not sure where to put those.

I asked my doctor if she liked her job and she looked like she was about to cry and said “you know! you just have to consider the positives every day!” so I feel like that’s a no

I am just so, so, so pissed right now.
Two days ago, when I opened Photoshop, it suddenly showed me an error message that the timeout for activating had run out, or whatever, because it was already installed on two computers.
Which makes fuck-no sense. I have actually installed this on... at least four computers, since they tended to die over the years. But never before has it shown me an error message. And there's no reason for it to do so now, since I installed it on this computer well over a year ago, so... why now.
And I can't even do anything about it, since Adobe fucking gatekeeps its support.
If you go to the Adobe website and want to talk to support, you only get the dystopian experience of talking to a chat bot that will tell you that you can only talk to a real human person if you have a subscription.
Bitch, I paid over 600 Euro for this fucking Master Collection, that should have been enough to let me talk to a real person. I should not need to additionally make any subscription, not even the "free trial", to get to talk to actual support.
And that's just the thing. I paid for this shit, I paid ridiculously much money to have these stupid-ass programs on my computer and for no reason whatsoever it's now giving me an error message but despite being a paying customer, I do not get customer service.
The most fucked up thing about it all is that... you can't seem to even buy licenses anymore? There seem to only be subscriptions and... if I only get to use this for a month and then have to pay again the following month, then I did not buy this. Nevermind how fucking overpriced these subscriptions are.
I just want to keep using the Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator that I already paid for, what the actual, ever-loving fuck.

@khalaesi || ANIMATRONIC STARTER CALL !
It's always a treat to interact with Mrs. Afton herself. It makes Phone Guy feel rather pompous proud of himself, like he's doing something particularly important for the company. After all, if Mrs. Afton tolerates likes him, he must be doing everything right!
"Hello, hello, hello!" he says when she walks in, a cheerful brrring! overlaying his words. He's as happy as ever for their bimonthly meeting, perhaps even more so than usual since he knows he has good news to share this time. The pizzaplex is thriving, customer complaints are down 15%, and fewer than a dozen people have asked him directly about what happened at the old locations! That's sure to put a pep in the boss lady's step!
"How are you today, Mrs. Afton?" His voice is warm, his posture relaxed. He's eager to get started on his report, but he doesn't want to rush her; she's almost certainly had a long day. Besides, the sooner they're done here, the sooner he has to leave and go back to work, and he'd much rather spend time here in her office than out on the pizzaplex floor fielding stupid questions.
Yeah-- the longer they can draw this out, the better.

I ordered an ergonomic pillow for my mom from amazon and today the app said "ok we delivered your pillow!!" and the picture shows a 6 inch by 4 inch envelope propped up against the door (in the rain) and I get home hoping it was some kind of error but nope they gave me a phone case instead of a pillow. a phone case. and I am disproportionately mad about it!!
