Overblown Annoyances
Here are some things that make me irrationally angry with startling immediacy, to the point of comedically angry.
-catching a belt loop on a door handle
I will RIP this door off the HINGES I swear to GOD TRY ME
-creating a password that meets extremely strict requirements, to have the system say it isn’t valid
apologies to my poor keyboard for the immediate sarcastically excessive inputs
further apologies for contemplating turning the keyboard into a chunk of balsa wood at a 4th grade karate demonstration
-creating a password to have the system display that it cannot be an existing password
THEN WHY ISN’T IT WORKING WHEN I TRY TO LOGIN
seriously why are passwords so hard to create?
It seems like I have a Everyday Brain and a Password Brain.
Password brain is a one way door vault, all inputs are secure because they can’t be accessed.
Well, they can be accessed if I knew the password, but…
-a mosquito whining in your ear when you wake up at 2 AM
if you think I won’t turn on all the lights and hunt you down with a bat you are mistaken, you bitey bastard
-a small sound, the volume of which is inversely proportionate to the effort and attempts to ignore it
It’s not always going to be a dripping when you’re trying to sleep, but it’s usually going to be a drip
-starting a really good song and then skipping to the next one as you lock your device / put it in your pocket
how DARE you tell me what I want to listen to, you pocket supercomputer
Yeah sure it’s my finger that did it, but you executed my errant command so you must pay
oh no this one is my fault but so are most of them
-using the hose and having the water run down the hose / your arm onto your shoes
one of my least favorite flavors is Dry Socks so please fuck my shit up thank you
as I am making this list up, I notice that there are a lot of things that ended up on the cutting room floor. “
They’re all in relation to being clumsy and uncoordinated. I think this bothers me because I’m not particularly by default, but smoking consistently turns me into a cloud headed bull in a china shop. How many times have I backhanded a drink across my desk and keyboard?
Many.
It’s not all bad. I’ve learned a lot about taking apart keyboards, cleaning them, and how they work.
Shoutout to Logitech for making mechanical keyboards that can take a dozen spills and keep on typing.
I’m on my 3rd keyboard, I think, I put the newest on my personal PC and then the older ones trickle down to work stations or work from home stations.
