    Idiots with cars.

    First of all, don’t go to the front of the line and then cut over. It’s a total dick move and then everyone starts doing it and there’s absolutely no use of a turn only lane.

    Second, I know you want to get into the right lane when you turn, but if that lane literally hasn’t moved in 4 light cycles TURN INTO THE OTHER LANE! There’s only one dedicated right turn lane, and you’re holding EVERYONE up because for some stupid reason you’d rather sit in a line not moving than go in the other two lanes that are and move over later.
    There is like half a mile to the freeway and you’re worried about not having time to merge into the turn lane for the feeder?!? wtf is wrong with you people?!

    I eat eggs for breakfast every morning. 4 microwaved eggs, it's not a fancy life but it's the one I live.

    No, I don't want to talk about the price of eggs at the store with randos. No, I definitely don't have a lot of money (um, it's like a $2-3 meal give me a break). No, I don't want to talk about chicken farms and **** with people that aren't chickens or farmers or chicken farmers.

    With hot sauce of course.

    Not a lot of options at the office. It’s not good but it’s a full belly instead of being hungry.

    Just don't be that chick who microwaves fish in the break room.

    Pro Tip:

    Hard boiled (peeled of course at home) split in half with Tony Chachere's and your hotsauce of choice.

    I won’t do that but I have asked if it bothers folks. I mean it’s eggs, some people don’t like the smell. I usually go to the break room instead of using the one in our corner cubicle.

    look, 4 eggs, break the yolks and only minimal scramble. 1:30-1:40 will get em most of the way there, take it out and pop the bubble, get some of the frothy undercooked egg all over it and it’ll cook the rest as you mix. Dab the hot sauce…

    ok it’s not bad but I kinda have it down to a science.

    All the damn commercial breaks in these NCAA games. It's 80 minutes of commercials to 40 minutes of basketball. :eek:

    40 minutes of court action
    20 minutes of off court non-commercial Ref/TO/Replay stuff (plus 10+ minutes of FT in close games)
    60+ minutes of halftime and commercials (this expands the bigger the games get)

    2 minutes rest for every minute of play, and that's if you never come out of the rotation.

    When someone tells you a story and you didn't quiet catch the last word of the last sentence of the story so you say "what was that last part?" and they roll their eyes and repeat the entire story.

    Or even worse, they just say "oh, forget it."

    No, no, don't "forget it"...I literally just need you to repeat the last word of your story. I got everything else.

    Spoiler alert - it's my kids who do this to me constantly.

    What’s wrong with that? I cook Japanese wagyu steaks in the microwave.

    • When you’re stuck in traffic and you look over and right next to you is the huge ‘shoulder’ that is two lanes wide.
    • When you’re stuck in traffic and you look over and right past the barrier there’s acres of new road that they haven’t opened up yet.
    • When you’re stuck in traffic and you look over and there’s the $20 ‘express lane’. **** toll roads.

    Doctors offices. My appointment was at 10, why am I still in the waiting room? Then I gotta wait 10 more minutes for them to come get me for the x ray, now I gotta wait another probably 10 minutes for the doctor… this seems very inefficient.
