WTF Wednesday

The good, the bad, the ugly... the things that seriously make you go, "wtf, mate?"

 

Last night I found out that my cat likes to eat dill pickle flavored popcorn.

 

Your turn.

Re: WTF Wednesday

  • Today I found out they make dill pickle flavored popcorn.
  • My cats have had less interest in going outside since it's getting colder... But this morning all of a sudden they're clawing at the door and freaking out trying to get outside because I had to go somewhere and be gone all day.  When I'm gone all day, I don't let them out because we live in the middle of nowhere and there's stray cats/dogs and foxes and I feel the need to let them in when they freak out....  It's like they know I'm leaving....

     

    Also, thankfully it's just to do some cooking stuff for an event tonight on the campus near my house, but when someone says they're going to meet me to work on the food for tonight and the woman I'm meeting up with is late.  Good thing I brought my laptop just in case...

  • W(hy)TF do the people that I work with think I will work for free after having this child? Why no... if my pay doesn't even cover the cost of daycare, then NO. I AM NOT GOING TO BE WORKING.

  • I'm all for saving sea turtles... I even volunteered to watch their nests overnight last summer to help the disoriented ones... but having to keep our balcony lights off or else we get a $10,000.00 fine PER DAY (yes you read that correctly) makes me say WTF?! And thank god turtle season is over. Stick out tongue

    Yes   I get sick of this question...  I'd have to make at least $60,000 a year in order to get into the average day care around where I live.  And there's not many options for things like friends or in home stuff, as most people in my area commute into DC (where the money jobs are, seriously!) and most families, if they have 2 parents, have both working.  I feel for you lady!

  • If our GD cat eats one more thing that belongs to Charlotte I will kick him out of this house and not feel one morsel of regret. I hate hate hate this stupid cat. This animal is NOT my family. It is one thing when it is my stuff, but he is ruining her things and it makes me irrationally annoyed.

  • I seriously think my dog faked an injury to get attention.

    He suddenly started limping the other night. We couldn't figure out why, but DH and I loved on him, babied him and kept him off his feet. We couldn't pinpoint exactly where he injured himself. The next morning, when we went to take him to the vet, the limp was gone and he acted perfectly fine. WTF?!

  • Yesterday we got a bill from a Collections agency stating that we owed the hospital several hundred dollars. WTF? I had MADE SURE and asked the accounting office that I didn't owe anything (In fact, I made sure to ask twice).

    Well anyway, my husband called the hospital today and they realized their mistake. They had told us originally that all fees would be due after delivery and something slipped through the cracks in their system. They are removing it from the collections agency so we don't get dinged on our credit but they do ask that we pay now instead of later... I guess we were originially misinformed (by two different people from their office?). I don't understand it, but I'm just glad that we at least don't get dinged on our credit and I guess it'll be nice to have the payment over with now instead of hanging over our head later.

  • I scratched the car a while ago, and put a little dent in the bumper (I was literally just learning to drive, feel free to laugh). The damages are purely cosmetic and not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but DH wants it repaired for the new insurance co. So I went to get an estimate today and they want to charge $1300 for those two things!! WTH!? A grand for a dent and a scratch?? DH says we'll see if we can at least cover up the scratch ourselves, I'm dreading him being mad at me because of this.
  • The office I work in is moving to a new building in March.  They want us to start cleaning out stuff that will not be needed or going to the new building before Jan 1.  We are a fire training center so we have lots and lots of old textbooks and materials that are outdated so we have a lot of stuff to trash. 

    The office put the secretary in charge of the move.  She is a brash, loud, over ruling b*tch to begin with.  Now her head is the size of the room.  She told us in an email last week that there would be one corner for trash and one corner for surplus (county govt, so we can't throw some stuff out). No other instructions given.

    My boss and I spent all of Monday going through old training book and materials and through desks, cabinets and book shelves.  We made a HUGE pile for trash.  She comes in today and sees it and has a fit.  So she then sends an email that we should be putting papers in one box for recycling, books in a box for recycling, taking all papers out of binders etc etc etc.  We would have been perfectly okay with doing this Monday had she been clear but NOOOOO she decides to say it today after we have created this massive pile of trash.  Now we're supposed to go through all of it and sort it.  WTF??!!  No way!  Not going to do it!

  • My dog eats pomegranate seeds.
  • I personally put this in the category of WTF but it might sound a bit like a mini pity party.
    WhyTF is my m/s not going away?!?! I had a few weeks of being able to eat. Now, all of a sudden, I can't drink or eat anything without puking my guts up. I just want to enjoy a (very small) meal!
    WTF?!?!?!

  • My BIL became engaged to a girl because they thought she was pregnant, but ended up not being; a year later she did get pregnant (still not married), and he broke it off 4 months before the baby was due.  They got back together a month before the baby was due and now that the baby is 7 months old, they are breaking up again.

    Well, the first time he broke it off I looked around and pulled a few favors to get him an appt with a really good family practice attorney.  BIL never showed up to the appt and ended up getting back together with her.  But now he wants to know if I can get him another appt. WTF - NOOOOOOO!!! I already look like an idiot for him bailing the first time and who knows if they will actually stay broken up or if they will get back together again.

    When I first got my poodle our grams stepped on her foot, she limped on the right foot for a couple days, out fox terrier boba got jealous and started to limp on his right foot.  I told my husband, he thought I was full of crap till he saw it, we proceeded to shower him with love, that stunt earned him some extra treats and loving.

    My dog warmachine eats wishes (dandelion weeds) When we take them to the park he will run up on them and chomp them like its a game he usually eats a couple each time.  Also all my dogs love grapefruit, they love all fruits and veggies but really grapefruit?

  • I have cravings... for tuna.  As in, Chicken of the Sea Tuna in Water... straight from the can.  WTF is that?!

    I know I've read that cravings mean that you're missing something... am I missing mercury or some heavy metal? 

  • today and yesterday I was asked rather snottishly "why?" when they asked if I was having a baby..really?!  Who asks why? You're suppose to say congrats. At least pretend to be happy for me! and sad part is is that neither of these people know me!

    Mine is along the same lines.

    I SWEAR our dog throws up just to get attention.  We've changed food kind, we've changed how much they get to eat, and the vets say he is perfectly fine.

    But the minute DH comes home from work and he sits down and we are talking with each other, if we don't pay enough attention to him....next thing you know,  BLEARG!! He throws up everywhere. Always in the same spot, and always three times. It's just a weird coincidence that it happens when he wants attention and we aren't giving him enough. It drives me nuts!

  • My dog's favorite toy is an empty water bottle. He will seriously cry and stare at me while I'm trying to drink out of one. Though that's not quite as WTF-y as this next one: 

    There were five people walking around waving Confederate flags outside of the fine arts museum today. No one seems to have an answer as to why they were there or what they were trying to accomplish. I know there has been some controversy over the fact that the museum isn't displaying the flag on an old Confederate chapel on the property, but...it just seemed like a really random thing to do on a Wednesday. Plus one of the guys waved at me and that was just weird.
