Oversleep Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 @Nightbird, I just watched that episode o.0 1
Magestar he/him Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 It might be because I'm just watching Avatar TLA for the first time now, but suddenly references to it seem to be everywhere. That episode was probably one of the funniest, IMO.

Sunbird she/her Posted November 8, 2016 Posted November 8, 2016 The cabbage joke even extends into Legend of Korra.

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted November 10, 2016 Posted November 10, 2016 Whichever mods on Not Always Right keep "correcting" American grammar. I keep seeing stories taking place in the US with phrases like "I have just got home." I have never heard an American say this. It's "I have just gotten home." 1
marsoupial they/them Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 (edited) My cat somehow let himself into my room at two in the morning, probably thinking: 'Oh, yeah, I'm gonna walk into Cam's room, and lay on his bed for a minute. Oh, hey, I'm gonna close the door behind myself, because that's a terrific idea. No, not gonna go on the bed. I'll just go get in the closet and meow for a few minutes then go roll around on the floor and up against the door and repeat this for a few hours because he's not waking up."

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 When ambushed by a patron on my way to the restroom.... "Ma'am? Do you have a[type of book] section?" "They're kind of scattered throughout. Let me show you how to search on the card catalog computer." "I did, and it was no help." I go to the catalog computer. The monitor is off, and there are no recent searches. Yeah. Sure you used the catalog station.
mattig89ch he/him Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 You work in a library I take it? my current pet peeve, is when a programmer puts a jobs into the sub system, but neglects to tell us if we need to run them one at a time, or if we can run them all at once. Knowing we're running these at 5AM. So, if we don't know something, we have to call them at 5am. And if they don't pick up, the jobs don't get run, and they bother us wondering why the jobs didn't get run. I work for a multi-million dollar company, who has offices world wide. We don't touch production systems unless we have very clear and precise instructions on what to do. Because messing up production could cost us our job, and the company alot of time and money.
marsoupial they/them Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Ye Tiny Gods, people are terrible to each other on the Facebook.
Quiver he/him Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Insincere work emails. I don't care if you apologise. I don't care if you say you "hope it works," and ask everyone if they can attend. It's an email from a work supervisor. We both know that refusing to do extra hours when asked isn't really an option. All it does is provide you with a "Well, we asked and you said yes," excuse further down the line.

Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted November 16, 2016 Posted November 16, 2016 Pet Peeve. Ungrateful people, and I mean the stuck up kind.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 I swear patrons (or customers, or guests) can tell when you're about to go on break.

I'm used to eating at 11:30-ish, so waiting until 12:30 was a bit rough. (Though better than when I was on a rigid schedule and it usually hit around 1 - I had to do a morning snack back then.)
