Ughh. I used to love self check. It's great for human avoidance as well as a quick getaway with the essentials if you suddenly need to abandon cart due your toddler screaming because they didn't get the only police car cart, and they saw another happy kid happily pretending to steer it through the isles.

My last experience not so good. I bring my own bag, I hit the " I brought my own bag" button and proceed as usual.   But, waaait! I am 3 items over what I can fit in my stuffed to the brim 2 large shopping bags I brought with me.
And I realize the horror,  plastic bags are banned, and paper bags cost 10 cents.  I can't just grab one. I have to ask for assistance if I want an extra bag. This is why I use self check, I can't fucking talk to people! Are you JOKING Me??!?

also I can no longer buy my wine in self check.  This blows the most balls of all.
Wow that's like a FWP Trifecta or something.

You win again.  Happy pancakes & bacon coming up with a purple flower on top.

Tall salsa jars.  Has no one thought this through?

I will tell you this, going over this Contract stuff will give you headaches and tire you out a lot more then doing a show which is fun.

I hope you gave him 10 cents and demanded another one.  That shit isn't right.

Univision is airing a show on transgenderos and I can't find the remote to change the channel.

I feel betrayed because a Facebook friend took a link I sent in a message and made it his status. Those should be *my* likes!

Using the Seamless app because the laptop is too far away.

Hate it when one of my earbuds stops working.  I've tried cheap kinds and expensive kinds, eventually one side always cuts out, usually right in the middle of a good song :-\

It's three degrees too warm in my office.

One thing that works for me is I try to strain relief the wire right before it splits to left/right-- so that there's a little more "slack" between the headphone portion and the middle wire when I'm doing active stuff. The first failure point is usually where the wire goes into the headphone portion. Through wear, the wire can fray or the solder joint can break.

On more expensive headphones, you can repair this. On cheaper ones, it's probably not worth it!  :D

That metal bit on the seat belt is a weapon of my ass destruction during summer.

I just had a coffee with soy milk. It has to be one of the worst decisions I've ever made.

Yep. You would be surprised how many ear buds I have modified in a attempt to keep working. Even though they are so cheap, when you want to hear stuff they go bad and so I resort to ducttape, toothpicks, etc. IF they made a pair that really could last I would invest more $ in a good pair. But so far as I can tell, even the "expensive one" will still suffer when you snag the cord on a tree limb or door handle and "connection" to input into phone/device being jostled in your pants pocket will go bad. So I buy the cheapest in bulk now when I come across them!

Milk comes from mammals, this claim about Soy "milk", Almond "milk" and the other awful "milk" products should be banned or at least not called "milk."

There's no more Easter chocolate left.

0-30 volt DC power supplies that seem to go from working to dead the next time you use them.
I now have two shoe box size door stops.

I paid a deductible  to get my phone replaced, received a refurbished s4 the next day. I used it for a day, wasted a bunch of time trying to get all the settings to my liking, and the screen stopped working.  So I call the warranty line, and they send me a brand new s5 for my trouble.  at first I think that this is great.
Now I realize the screen is too big to hold and type with one hand and the auto correct has not learned my propensity to use the word fuck,  so I keep having to hit the check button if I don't want to go back and change it from saying duck. 
so basically I feel like I paid for a duck that's too big to fondle comfortably with my little fingers.

That's ducked up.

Been having trouble with iTunes.  Latest thing is that now the play counts for every tune in my library have stopped updating :-/

Having to deal with the medical system. Even if you have good insurance it's a bitch.
