@Matt I thought you took a job to fund your travels to exotic locations like Canada and Gosport and jeans are the mementoes you pick up along the way

[Matt]

Credit card point are how I travel. Jeans are how I get points. Then I buy jeans when I travel and get more points.

she demanded that I ordered the Item from my personal Amazon account and then sell it over our counter.

@RobeOfTheMagi said in Random Rants:

they won't be paying them for the foreseeable future, in fact they don't know if they'll ever be able to

These combined make for the most insane post i've probably ever seen.

Well, life‘s sometimes strange, I guess.

My wife has been paid by now ️. They let go half of the company, and she wasn’t one of them.

Thanks to an orange-faced fuckface, filling up the Endomobile now costs a cool 200 euros.

[tody]

@endo you should still enjoy the ride. where are you headed?

My 40 litre tank cost me $130 the other week
And it wasn’t even on the red

[Ikeaparty]

We were at $2.27/L Canadian here the other day, never seen it that high, back down to $2.13 today but im sure once market closes and threats can be made for off hours market manipulation itll get shot back up for tomorrow, then back down Monday. Trying to drive as minimally as possible these days, but we are opening up the doors to Chinese EVs here so will probably trade in for that at some point hopefully soon. Gas budget through the roof these days it sucks

Some jerk cut me off in a roundabout, needed to full break. However, I honked what provoked him to break check me and so we were standing there in the round about holding up the traffic. I and some others honked a few times more until he continued driving after what felt like a whole minute. After that he drove zigzag and very slowly in front of me while waving his hands with a fury only to turn left on the next crossing.
Poor guy, must be hard to live with such a tiny wiener.

What worries me, more and more of them seem to be around

[Tago Mago]

@don_pipone could have been worse. Still annoying af. Pisses me off as well

[don_pipone]

@Chap I have the same impression. I‘ve been driving for more than 20 years and I used to work in field sales for 10 years. Hence I’ve spent a lot of time on the autobahn and seen a lot but what I‘ve experienced in the last 2-3 years tops it all. Crazy times man…

[don_pipone]

@Tago-Mago wow! I would have never expected such things happening in Germany

[Tago Mago]

@don_pipone maybe he was in a rush to get to Wertheim Outlet

[don_pipone]

@Tago-Mago I‘d be understanding if it was an IH sale. Wouldn‘t want to miss it either.

[Tago Mago]

@don_pipone you probably won’t be surprised to learn that the guy was a regular at the police

[don_pipone]

@Tago-Mago I would‘ve expected so

[pechelman]

@don_pipone the other reasonable option here is that she thought you looked like not a creep and sat next to you for safety or for proactively preventing some other random person from sitting next to them in an empty seat as the bus fills up.

[don_pipone]

@pechelman valid point and I would agree if it wasn‘t an express bus going nonstop to the station and she was the last person to board - so no risk of filling up.
Also, I wouldn’t even want to sit next to me
