    Very minor, but I very recently changed deoderant after not being able to find the one I usually use. I just got to a clinic for a medication infusion and it has completely worn off, being replaced by the smell of stress sweat from traffic, and now this poor nurse has to smell me while I get my medicine, so I am mortified.

        This is obviously a fabrication. Blueberries are delicious and there's no too many about it.

          I left the hot water running in the kitchen sink for like 20 minutes and it steamed up the place.

            I was clearing some brush with a machete, 6 stitches in my shin.

            I would probably have cleared the brush before it reached my shin, that way you could probably get by with a trimmer instead of a machete. And doing it before spring has its advantages too so the beach bod is ready before swim season.

              Every time someone says millipede I get the millipede song stuck in my head.

                My bathtub faucet plunger that diverts water to the shower head wasn't working anymore so I couldn't shower. I bought a new one with chrome finish to match the existing hardware in the bathroom. Installed it

                Then I decided to CLR douse the water valve and decorative plate and get rid of some hard water staining. It dripped onto the new faucet which clearly wasn't made of the same material because it instantly oxidized.

                So that was infuriating.

                  This is kinda long and kinda vague: I had a meeting recently with some devs/artists to discuss an upcoming project.

                  In short, the meeting went poorly. I stood alone against everyone else on the design/direction things were going to be headed.

                  I was tired and frustrated and walked away basically saying I'm not going to support any of it.

                  After mulling it over for a day, I felt I was too harsh and unreasonable. I reached back out and apologized and asked to give this one more try.

                  Well they didn't accept. I guess that bridge is too scorched to go back on. It wasn't until that point that I realized I really messed this one up.

                    Bought a new car on the spot after a test drive. Most stupid decision of my life. It was only a week after I had wrecked my longtime car. Must have still been in some kind of weird mental state, although I felt fine at the time. Don't do that. Do not. Do that. Test drive, think about it, go back if you're still interested. You'll thank yourself.

                        If it helps, I'm pretty sure stress sweat is far from the worst thing that nurse routinely smells. By a long shot.

                          That reminds me of a few years ago when I noticed a neighbor down the street running a weed eater while wearing a small bikini. She had on heavy gardening gloves and safety goggles, but to protect the rest of her whole body just the bikini. And it was a really big-ass weed eater too, the kind with the extra side handle. Might have even been gas powered.

                            I planted hydrangeas in an area with too much sun exposure and they're getting scorched leaves while I wait for shade cloth to ship

                              I decided it was a good idea to do the mandatory university stage while also working this summer, while also trying to pass my last four exams. I greatly overstimaded my capacities and the trust i should have gave to my employee when they said i would be working just some days a week.

                                Many years ago there was something weirdly wrong with our old washer or dryer where white things occasionally came out stained bright pink. Not an overall tint like if you wash a cheap red shirt in the same load. It was always very distinct vivid stains, like if a little Pepto Bismol got splashed around. We never figured out what the hell was causing it.

                                  I printed 200 labels at work all with a typo on it, so I had to print 200 more. Good thing the only thing that cost me was my time lol

                                    OMG. I worked on lawn care as a teen. I still to this day avert my face away from anyone weed whacking. Received many hits to the face even with safety gear.

                                        Bought some parts for my car without checking they fit. Two hour round trip to pick them up, hours grinding the old rust off them, more hours repainting them, another £100 buying all the extra bits I needed to fit them. Then got under the car and realised there was no way they were going to fit. Ended up just buying some refurbished ones off the internet so at least the extra parts weren’t wasted and I get to fit them.

                                        They were anti-roll bars for anyone who cares.

                                          Aware, but heavy storms have been passing through for the last two weeks so I'm waiting it out instead of sacrificing cloth that won't hold up as well outdoors
