Things That Shit Me the Eighteenth

The bowser says diesel but it wasn't diesel??

 

[Cruyff14]

The left one. I swore it was diesel but it was 98.

If you fill your car once a week for 20 years, thats over 1000 fills.

To get it wrong once.... it's still a 99.9% success rate.

That's elite level filling.

Messed up today.
I’ve lost 12kg since last year by running and quitting junk food, so my pants have been falling down on the regular… had to make a new hole in my belt to fix this issue, which I’d been trying to do all weekend while at golden plains but to no avail.

So was just about to head out to meet some mates, and just before I left I was like this is it I’m making this new hole I’m sick of having to pull my pants up… so I get a kitchen knife and i finally get it through the belt, push harder to get it all the way through, push too hard and drive it straight deep into my arm…

My god, it hurt so bad, you know how they say some injuries don’t hurt at all when they first happen and the pain comes later? This wasn’t like that, it was immediate deep pain all the way up my arm and into my fingers. Weirdly it didn’t bleed much at all but it was a deep wound and could see the fat tissue and muscle inside.

Luckily my wife is home and she FaceTimes her mum who is a nurse, she confirms it needs stitches, so off to urgent care - my first time visiting one, sat for about an hour and a half then got the wound stitched up - now it just hurts really bad and am having trouble sleeping because of it.

And speaking of quitting junk food, got myself some emotional support kfc on my way home…

Did somebody say KFC?

Try and find a good stationery style hole puncher. Has done the trick for me with adding custom belt holes in the past.

How come you didn't buy a new belt?

Literally says diesel, which is what I thought I put in. I made a mistake. I am not the first person nor the last to make one.

But thanks for your judgment

Didn't even see your post pal so relax. I'll stand by what I said.

i have a low IQ

My wife might leave me because of the farts it has caused. And I don’t blame her

Most have the butterfly handle to have to press to release the handle labelled "diesel" everywhere.
Plus on the fuel cap.
Plus the nozzle size is larger to prevent fitting into a normal petrol tank fill spout

But sure, why not

Do KFC farts more often to desensitise her to it is my advice. Stay strong.

When Christians say they don't agree with same-sex marriage and think it should be outlawed because God doesn't approve. So don't get same-sex married then. What right do you have to enforce your antiquidated beliefs on others?

I look at christians the same way I do teenagers who still believe in Santa or the Easter Bunny.

What's that about the Easter Bunny

Since we're talking about it and the thread is called 'things that shit me' - the militant atheists I encounter are far more insufferable than the Christians I know. It's a culture of intellectual superiority and patting themselves on the back about how smart they are. Riveting conversations galore.

Then again, why would you continue to be friends with the evangelicals ie the fire and brimstone gays will burn in hell types if your values are that incompatible? Remove them from your life and move on - I had a couple of acquaintances like that, deleted them from social media and avoided them afterwards. Done, life is happier again. More difficult if family I suppose, but you don't have to make anything more than small talk with them.

I've cut my whole family off because of this.

Atheists generally are smarter than religious people. You really have to be a special kind of stupid to believe in God these days.

The nozzle sizes physically prevent people from putting diesel into a petrol tank. But not petrol into a diesel tank. It's a trillion dollar industry. You would think they might have come up with a solution.

People buying new tech yearly, like new phones/cars etc... every year.

I generally agree with the premise, I've cut off my ultra-religious extremist types from my friend and family circles, but from my experience the kindest people I've ever met are dedicated Christians, and their belief in God did not affect their belief in science or basic human decency.

There are many problems with organised religion but to characterise all followers as being beneath you speaks more about you than it does about them.

I'm not sure people really encounter the "ultra-religious extremist types", who would rather keep company with fellow travellers rather than deliberately annoy others who they know don't share their beliefs. I think goading them about it would be provocative and unkind.

The occasional Jehovah's Witness that comes to my door is usually polite and non-pushy, so it doesn't kill me to be polite back.

I have a family member who is very religious but they don't speak of their beliefs and don't try to press them onto others in the family. They are a kind and helpful person who is yet just as fallible and normal as the rest of society.

If Evolution can't what chance to petrol stations have???
