My wife and I are in Africa and taking our malaria pills every day. This morning I took mine first. It’s the one on the corner of the pack. I gave it to my wife and she took hers and handed it back. I have no words.
I am now rethinking everything I think I know about her.

I was at the pool today when a woman started having a conversation on her phone using the speaker.

I politely asked her if she could not use the speaker and pointed to my headphones.
She said, “I don’t have headphones.”
So I said, “You can just hold the phone next to your ear.”

She looked at me with a completely blank expression and said, “I’m on speakerphone.”
I said, “Well… that’s the problem.”

Apparently, we had reached the limits of modern technology.

Title pretty much speaks for itself. Am I missing something??

Edit: For those of you asking, this is North San Diego, CA.

Edit2: For everyone commenting about the five pack sale, it’s a digital coupon only; you must purchase 5 AND create an account on their app and add the coupon at checkout.

My husband decided to order groceries yesterday because today is a holiday. He was ordering it very happy and told me: "see? when we order from home, we buy only the necessary and don't spend money with other stuff" when the groceries arrived, he had bought a case of coke zero, a case of monster and meat 😭 No eggs, no bread, no milk 😅 at least I had two slices of stale bread for breakfast.

Bought of few bottles for the family to drink for Labor Day and could not get the heck out of this CVS.

Cashier tells me the total and I say, “Oh, did you ring this one up too?” Indicating a bottle she had not rung up or bagged. A large bottle. The largest one, in fact.

She cancels transaction and restarts.

Bags the bottles, but had not rung up a totally different bottle. Cancel, begin again.

Now we have it all. I pay and gather to leave before realizing the Patron, which you get off the shelf as an empty box, then the cashier switches it behind the counter for a box with an actual bottle within—yea, box was still the empty one and cashier had walked off. I wait, she has to pull up the receipt to make sure she rung it up, then gives me the proper box.

At last I’m on my way out when the door sensors go off. Another cashier says, “It acts up sometimes, you’re fine!” So I carry on.

Upon getting to my car I see the cashier had left a security topper on a bottle, like the anti-theft tags on clothes, making it impossible to open. Back inside I went. No cashier in sight, so I wait around five minutes for someone to fix it.

I’m not exaggerating that I have never experienced time move so very slowly as it did today.

got a new candle among other things for my birthday, lit it for a bit and blew it out.. roommate came home from work and "impulsively" stuck his FINGER in MY candle..we are already not friends, he's 20 whole years old..

I had it installed since up until this point it was a fairly harmless program that gave a variety of animals, environments or pattern backgrounds that rotate daily. Wtf?

This is the THIRD time (sorry title is wrong) we’ve seen her do this. So who knows how many times she’s done it without us noticing?? We’ve caught her before but she keeps coming back. AND she literally brings scissors so she goes out the door to take roses from MY HOUSE. MY GOD are people shameless. Literally in broad daylight where everyone and our cameras can see. The last time we called her out, and yet she came back?? Also we did tell her to stop. Multiple times

Created a Snapchat group chat to invite a few people to something, and AI just decided it was a part of the group... what a dumb feature.

Names and location blurred for privacy.

Like no sir, we're not on WhatsApp 24/7 waiting for uni updates, that's on me, tho, should've checked before leaving:(

Why do people do this? Grow up.

Brand is Everyday California. Caption says it. I purchased this hoodie at the airport because it looked nice and I supported the company mission. Wore it home and washed based on their care instructions and the leather patch bled all over. Contacted them and they stated their policy won’t cover items previously worn or washed.

EDIT: since yall are in the "actuallyyy" guy mode, here's some info that I relaized doesn't make sense to everyone

1- with sugar free here I didn't mean the peaches don't contain natural sugar, I meant no added sugar, I just used its name on the menu so that one is on me cuz I should've guessed it wouldn't make sense if you weren't there ordering with me,lol

Edit 2 cuz u guys have no chill: for some reason ur mad at me for the item's name apparently, it's a menu in a non native English speaking country but in English(wanted to be fancy I guess? I don'tget the hype) ,

it's literally translated directly from the first language without checking twice, is it their fault? No, since it's not the first language no one takes it as seriously as you guys did, no one would assume here it means they took the sugar away from the fruit?like how even do they? Is it my fault tho? Yes, should've guessed common sense isn't that common, did ever see someone taking away sugar from fruit? Come on you guys, and seriously I should've proofread my post apparently

2- I do realize peaches contain sugar naturally, but refined sugar is a nono for me cuz it's gets to your system faster causing rapid blood sugar spike followed by reactive hypoglycemia which is what makes you (me at least) dizzy ,

while natural sugar is accompanied by fibers and vitamins which helps it be nicer to your body by like ALOT and the juice here isn't blended until watery, it precives its consistency to an extent, that's why the straw is that thick, I don't know another word for that other than juice, honestly (just learned in the comments the right word for that is smoothie)

3- I don't encourage you to consume alot of fruit if your IR before asking your doctor, my IR is thankfully not bad enough to kill me but enough to make me dizzy after alot of sugar, which is infuriating to me, take a chill bill guys

I was like oh, that's actually really good,better than usual, wait a minute, it's way too good, tasted my sister's juice cuz she did order mano peaches and yep, they gave us both what she ordered, couldn't tell from the start cuz the peaches tasted strong on it, and I for some reason assumed they used naturly extra sweet peaches this time? My brain isn't braining

Note to self put a grate over the top to stop packages and animals falling in too🫤

Now I can’t get a refund unless I send Amazon proof of ID even though it’s clearly been damaged while being delivered, it’s less than a £10 purchase too

Okay, I’m writing this literally right after it happened (6:30) and I’m pissed. So yesterday, I started to feel a little sick. I knew when I was gonna wake up, I’d be a lot more sick. But who cares, it’s Labor Day. I don’t have college. I’m good. I’ll sleep in, and get a nice rest. I fall asleep at around 3am. Today, I woke up at 6:00. I forgot to turn my alarm off. Fuck. But the tiredness isn’t what I’m feeling. I can’t breathe from my nose, I have a nasty stomach ache, and feel like I’m about to throw up. You know what I decide to do? Go to the bathroom? Go to a trash can? Nope, I decide to try to hold it in. What am I thinking? Of course, that doesn’t work and I start to throw up. I lean off the bed and throw up onto the carpet. Well, at least it’s just the carpet and not my bed or anything valuable, right? Nope! Fuck you. I throw up directly onto my bookbag and tv remote. I sit here, in my bed, unable to breathe out of my nose, eyes watering from the puking, stomachache preventing me from moving and unable to sleep due to my nose. Hope this made you laugh, because this is hell. I’m just gonna pretend like I don’t have to pick through my puke covered bookbag later today and try to go back to bed.

I’ve (F19) been working for this one company for a few weeks now and have only a few days left. (I’m only helping because they’re in a lot of hurry.) Today this guy (M19) from the same staff rental company as me came in and started working alone with me on a new project. We were chatting and I used the expression “double-edged sword” in relation to using AI to study. This asshole then said something about “smart people like you” and continued to call me “moldy” under his breath. I was baffled but later on he continued to say all kinds of nonsense about girls and women in general.

English is not my first language btw so feel free to ask for clarification

Over the weekend, my dad (63M) and I (29F) went to a local swimming hole about a 45min drive out of town. I suspected it would be busy due to it being Father's Day and the weather is also starting to get warmer. Spring has officially sprung so we left early and arrived at about 9am.

When we got there, only one other group had set up; a young couple with two small children splashing around in the shallow water. We set up our blanket, towels, and picnic basket far from them, where the water was a little deeper, and then hopped in for a swim and a rope swing.

By about 11, the place was crowded and there weren't many spots left. Around noon, we came out of the water to eat our picnic lunch, and at the same time, a group of about 4 or 5 guys, probably in their mid-20s, showed up.

They set up right near us as there wasn't much space left and they had a Bluetooth speaker with them. It was taller than the toddlers we saw swimming when we first arrived. And of course they started pumping bass right in our ears. I'm not a very confrontational person and neither is my dad so we just silently packed up our lunch, which we had barely started eating, and went home.

We instead ate our picnic lunch on our blanket in the backyard with the dog and still had a lovely time. But come on. We went there to escape; to listen to the chirping of the cicadas, the singing of the birds, the trickle of the stream over the rocks, and the rustle of the leaves on the trees as they swayed in the wind. Not to hear your terrible music. Use headphones!

I’m not entirely mad because maybe the person who got passed forward did everything I did AND shook their hands…and also because they didn’t need to give me a reason or rejection message at all but the table took up about three quarters of the room and I couldn’t reach the other side to them without making myself look stupid, and the walkway along the table was really narrow so it would have meant I had to clumsily walk sound all the other chairs to go over to them and shake each of their hands then awkwardly walk back AND none of them even got up when we entered the room so it didn’t even cross my mind that they wanted to shake hands? To be honest it feels like something other than not shaking their hands was the problem but they didn’t even need to give me any feedback I guess but wow if it really was just that then…Also professionalism? It seemed really weird that they were messaging me through text instead of emailing me like most companies do
