WTF Wednesday

rebelone · December 2015

I haven't seen one started yet so here it is. There's gotta be plenty of WTFs going around.

AEG84 · December 2015

WTF, traffic. My commute without traffic is 15 minutes. With normal traffic, 20-25. Today it took me over 40 minutes due to multiple accidents on surface streets causing traffic to come to a complete standstill. And I needed caffeine to begin with.

WTF DH, for bringing up the fact that we may have to put our oldest dog down AS WE WERE GOING TO BED LAST NIGHT. Yes, I'm aware this is probably coming up within the year and have been keeping a close eye on the dog. But he's still eating and drinking just fine, and getting around ok (slow, but still capable). Him slowing down is a normal sign of old age, not a sign that he is miserable and that we should put him down sometime soon, FFS.

Ellenlbishop · December 2015

I've got 2 this morning.

WTF DD for crying non-stop starting at 5 until I retrieved you at 5:45 this morning for no apparent reason other than you'd like to be in our bed. CIO failure.

Second one to DH who keeps informing me that I should enjoy being pregnant and not ever get angry at DD. Neither of those feelings that I've expressed makes me a horrible person like you're implying. He should carry around a tiny human in your belly for 9 months while dealing with toddler and then tell me he loves it. Argh!

rebelone · December 2015

WTF local news? I just heard on the radio an investigation has opened in my state because a pregnant horse was found bleeding and a vet has confirmed it was sexually assaulted. The horse and baby are fine.

Oh dear Lord. Blech.

elasticheart13 · December 2015

Wtf neck. Why are you so stiff. As if I don't already have enough pregnancy symptoms.

Goldsgirl9 · December 2015

WTF sinuses? None of my natural remedies are working and I'd really like to be able to breathe through at least one nostril!

yodiggity · December 2015

WTF weather. Why you make me sick? My sinuses can't decide between Post-nasal drip, stuffy nose or runny nose. Let's go with all of the above.

rebelone · December 2015

WTF coworker? I'm sure you think it's funny that you fill out a time off sheet for me and put it on my desk if I come in so much as a minute after 8:00 but really, you're being an asshat. I can come in anytime in from 7:53 - 8:07 before I'm considered late and you're not my boss so FU.

That would infuriate me.

I have a coworker who consistently tells people (when I am conveniently around) "well I get here at by 7:30 every day so I wouldn't know"...Fuck no you don't bitch. I am here by 8am like I'm suppose to be, sometimes I am early and on those days I've had her pull in either right in front or right behind me. You are not winning an award for being here before 8am just like I am not going to win an award for staying here after 4:30pm, which I do everyday as I hear your computer shut down at 4:28pm every day.

[Deleted User] · December 2015

WTF sister! We plan a night out for the siblings and their SO's (i have three sisters) and now one (the one is ALWAYS That One) has a party and can't make it. HELLO we planned this out a month ago so everyone could clear their schedules as it is our outing in lieu of gifts for Christmas. It's just super annoying cuz she's always the first bow to bow out of group gifts and has to give you her opinion on everything even if it's not warranted. GRRRRR

Thanks for letting me vent here instead of blasting her ass via email!!!

imrachellea · December 2015

WTF Florida. Why do you have to be so appealing to old people in the winter? As if the never-ending 80 degree weather isn't bad enough, let's double our population from November-March and make traffic on the road THAT MUCH WORSE. With as many years as they must have been coming here in the winters, one would think you would actually start understanding how to drive on the roads...that includes TRAFFIC CIRCLES. Get with the program, my work commute should not go from 25 to 45 minutes because you can't learn to drive. And on top of it, the already crazy stupid decision making drivers make even more crazy stupid decisions on the road because they're just as frustrated with the old people drivers. Over it.

Ready4theParty · December 2015

WTF DD first off thanks for hiding my make up on the one day I over sleep and have to be to work early. Also WTF is up with not wanting anything to do with me and then this morning after I've left you pitch a fit because you only want me??

Pinguinageddon · December 2015

Wtf is up with this uppity hair dresser place being completely awful? I've been here two and a half hours, and every customer I've seen is leaving with irritations all over their scalp and neck, and my stylist didn't bother to put my hair back before disappearing, so the bleach is irritating the crap out of my ears. Plus, I've asked him *three times* since I got here if I could go pee before we moved to the next step, and each time, he's ignored me.

mumistheword · December 2015

WTF Bakery. I put in an order for a gender reveal cake earlier this week, went to pick it up and you mysteriously don't have it for me and won't be able to have it ready by this afternoon? Now I'm calling around to any of the bakery's near me hoping to have one that can put together a cake on short notice. I already have a whole family dinner planned around this cake, and will feel like a total asshole if I don't have the cake that I made such a big deal about. I guess worse case scenario, I'll have them just write it on the cake which will be less of a surprise but everyone will still at least get cake. :-)

@rebelone That is just horrific, I still can't believe what people will do sometimes. We had a local news story recently that a homeowner came home to find his neighbor trying to sexually assault his pitbull in the backyard. It caused a whole standoff with the police, and apparently he was running around with a gun naked in the back yard yelling about aliens.

@rachellea I don't know how you deal with that. I can't stand when I get stuck behind one old person let alone thousands lol.

Brandi81012 · December 2015

WTF DH, why do you keep taking the bag of tortilla chips I buy to indulge in my dip cravings to work for your stupid Mexican dip days, go buy your own bag of tortilla chips! Or at least have the decency to buy a bag to restock our cabinet for me!

Ready4theParty · December 2015

Also WTF tenants? You broke your lease. Stop trying the nickel and dime us. You also moved out of the house three weeks ago and agreed to pay the rent through March or until we sell the property. We are still trying to work with you and get the house sold so you don't have to pay rent.

ejled · December 2015

WTF bowels...I am finally "getting over" a 72 hour stomach bug from Thanksgiving, and I swear I still cannot stay off the freaking pot! I miss my once daily very normal bowel movements.......

Joness11 · December 2015

WTF is it with everyone asking "are you excited!!?!?!" I know people mean well but really. How else do they expect me to respond besides "yes"? And say I'm not excited, I'm terrified, I don't care, whatever (which I am excited lol) then I know that's a conversation neither of us would want to have.

misstopsail · December 2015

WTF all over body pain? Why on earth does pregnancy have to make my arms hurt??? Legs and back I get.. But the arms didn't need to join the party.

breannnamarie4253 · December 2015

Wtf to my midwife who was suppose to call me back within 72 hours..its been way over and I haven't heard anything.

And wtf to the bump because every time I need to log into my account it does this account first?? Makes no sense.

Poppy16 · December 2015

WTF 2 year old, who decided to stay awake for her whole nap time, and then fall asleep when it's time to get up. $:\$

I never thought about the implications of old people migrating south for the winter. That would drive me nuts!!

AGK2015 · December 2015

WTF to everything today. WTF to the alcohol free wine I put in the freezer to chill (which, since it doesn't have alcohol to keep it liquid, froze, expanded and shattered the glass). WTF to this dumb pregnancy for making me unable to just enjoy the chianti I really want instead of some lame-ass no alcohol chardonnay. WTF to my job for sucking so much. WTF to my manager for pointing out that I'm basically the suckiest employee ever and that I can basically count on my performance review to reflect it. WTF to myself for letting my dislike for my job escalate so much that I stop being the great employee I used to be and start being the suckiest employee ever (yeah, I couldn't even argue with her). WTF to this stupid baby bump that's gonna make it hard to get hired somewhere else pre-maternity leave (not that I really want to lose FMLA protection anyway by starting over somewhere else just before I give birth). WTF to not pooping for a week, and not being able to bend over, and having stupid bloody noses all the time. WTF to the snow for being gross and drippy.

And seriously, WTF to my husband's new job for keeping him away from home until 8:00 when all I want is a hug?

kerinsara · December 2015

Hope things look up soon! Maybe a night of pampering until hubby gets home?

edited because posting a gif is complicated work

blonde_mama · December 2015

WTF to my husband's job for sending him on another business trip. Toddler is on day 4 of sickness and I am exhausted. I need a vacation!

I know it's not there same but I'm sending creepy Internet hugs

spatter1 · December 2015

@AGK2015 ugh HUGS to you!!! But for real, have you found an alcohol free wine that actually tastes at least kind of good?!?! Bc if so I would love to know the name of it! All the ones I've tried so far have been gross

kalanieileen · December 2015

I'm about to throw a major fucking bitch fit. What THE FUCK to Target, FedEx, and USPS. I ordered some maternity leggings from target over 3 fucking weeks ago. They should've arrived this week. Well when I check my tracking it says it's being sent back to target.

So I call fedex. They have no clue what the fuck I'm talking about. So he gives me a number to USPS customer service. I call that number which is a stupid automated system that has no idea what the fuck I'm trying to say to it, which then disconnects me 5 fucking times!

So then I call fedex back. Again, complete dipshits on the phone. So I google USPS customer service human and got a different number. She was helpful, she wrote a note on the package saying DO NOT SEND BACK TO SHIPPER, correct address. Well USPS dipshits are sending back to Target.

So I call USPS this morning again, saying please stop my package and send back to me. The lady was rude and utterly unhelpful. I hung up on her.

So I call target, and after being on hold for over 45 minutes I finally get to speak to someone. But they hardly speak any English so now I'm the one who has no idea what the fuck she is saying.

She puts me back on hold for another 20. She comes back and says oh yes your package is being shipped back to us. DUH THATS WHY IM FUCKING CALLING YOU.

She then tells me she will give me a refund and a $10 gift card for the hassle. I told her not necessary. I just want the damn leggings, so please just do something to send the package back to me.

She said ok She'll call fedex. I said OMG NO, call USPS. She said actually "i can't. I'll just give the refund. " At this point I'm ready to just drive off of a cliff. She tells me there are no more in stock at the warehouse to send me another pair so she'll give me a refund. I said NOOO just send the package back once you've received it. She said she can't do that because she doesn't know when the package arrives.

Ugh, I told her make an annotation or something to send me the damn leggings once you've received them. She put me on hold to speak to someone else then DISCONNECTS ME.

So now I am on hold AGAIN for the thousandth fucking time.

What. The. Fuck.

End rant.

You win WTF Wednesday. So sorry, I hate dealing with that kind of $h!t.

AGK2015 · December 2015

@spatter1 Haven't found a good one yet, abd it doesn't help that I typically prefer reds to whites (and it seems like removing the alcohol removes all the body). The bottle that exploded was a Fre Chardonnay that I hadn't tried yet... Not sure that I'll bother trying to find another bottle. At least grape juice is tasty, so I may just stick to it.

And thanks for the hugs

Hubsband brought home a couple of treats for me and his sweet self, so I'm feeling better now.

@emgee27 thank you for your sympathies *cries in corner leggings-less*

lawright · December 2015

@spatter1 I haven't found any good alcohol-free wine, but there's an incredible selection of NA beers out there. So far, I've tried the Coors NA, Labatte NA, and O'Doules NA. Coors tastes most like Coors regular beers. Labatte has an almost floral taste that I suspect is supposed to be hops but tastes funny when not fermented. The O'doules isn't bad at all, but is kind of boring. I haven't tried any of the German imports yet.

WTF people from Florida complaining about 80 degree weather. Old people driving bitch away! But come up North where the capillaries in your hands and feet spasm shut from the cold and then complain about 80 degree weather. Anything under 90 and over 75 is the definition of perfect weather.

I'm from south GA, and yes we are all bitching about the weather being in the 80s still. lol! I don't know about super cold snowy weather or anything, but down here we die from the heat and humidity that lasts about 9/10 months of the year, so by this time we are ready for a break from the heat!

sarahufl · December 2015

WTF, it's 3:30 in the morning and I am wide-ass awake. This sucks. I have never suffered from insomnia, but now I am well aware of why people hate it so much.

I JUST WANT TO SLEEP!!

elasticheart13 · December 2015

@kalanieileen oh man I feel your pain. Happened to me when I was trying to get through the health department in Denmark when I didn't have access to healthcare because I was in the process of moving to Sweden. No one wanted to listen, I was bounced back and forth between different departments and after 1 hour of explaining I end up with a douchebag that doesn't want to listen and hangs up on me. I ended up crying for 30 minutes out of frustration. So hugs to you!

Yeah I'm originally from up north, so I can speak from both sides of the coin. Trust me, the heat and humidity suck when you deal with it literally ALL the time. You're running the a/c nearly all long, whereas up north you can have a fire in the fireplace, there is NO escape in the summer, none at all, you spend the entire summer inside because its too ridiculous to be outside. None of the fall/winter holidays feel right when you're used to the seasons from up north, everything seems off, and honestly I have more driving issues with the old people than I ever did with ice and snow. And I'm from where we get real snow. There were multiple years I remember blizzards with 3-5' snow piling up, the winter a few months before I left to move to Florida I had a foot of snow UNDER a foot of ice on and around my car in the parking lot at my college. It took us literally hours to chop the ice away so I could get my car out.

Moral of the story, I feel like I'm justified complaining about the heat.

I grew up in Tallahassee and now live in the NYC suburbs. My sister lives in Miami. Trust me, I'm with you on the cold/hot complaints. Why don't we all move to San Diego or something?

I would rather deal with the heat and humidity than the traffic and politics of California. Plus, that traffic would be horrible!
