Crack into a bowl first then you can fish out the shells before they hit the pan

not sure this grinds my gears but working with only soccer moms, actually most are retired soccer moms, is at times painful

i literally have no guy to talk to at work

any level of work stress in the office and it all melts into over blown drama

In college I was a bank teller, I worked with mostly women for the majority of my 4 years there. My main complaint was their refusal to turn up the A/C in the summer. It was a constant battle over the thermostat. They thought 80 was a comfortable temp.

You can put on layers, you can't work naked. The thermo should always be set lower rather than higher.

That was always my argument, put on a sweater, don't wear sandals... etc. Meanwhile I'm buttoned up in a coat and tie sweating like a pig.

This past Mother’s Day I went over to my sisters who lives in a seven figure new property.

I shit you not, 77 degrees on the thermostat. It’s unfucking bearable

I need 72 max a/c in the house spring-summer-most of fall. During the winter, I’m good at 68,69. Maybe bump it to 70 if really cold out and you need to take the chill out the house.

Preach. 67 is the ideal temp for me, I keep it at home and in my car.

If it's 70 degrees its too hot for me most of the time. Last time I was in my girl's car she had it on 72, I was sweating balls in there.

Damn, you are a warm blooded bastard lol. 70 is too hot? You must have a big electricity bill.

I float between 70-72 myself.

Tell me you've never lived in the DMV without saying you've never lived in the DMV.

The humidity around here is insane. Spring when it's like 60 degrees a day only lasts like a week or two a year. We live in a literal swamp town. Two days ago it was 50 degrees when I went to work at 5 am, and it was 80 in the afternoon. The humidity is insane - the humidity here makes it so unbearingly goddamn hot it feels worse than the dry 117 degree heat I experienced in Phoenix last summer.

So yeah. I know what I'm about son.

When it feels 98 there it is like 88 here so about 10 degrees cooler, plus my house is in woods so I am surrounded by trees definitely keeps it cool until about 3 in the afternoon. The only things I worry about keeping cool are the pets. Have to make sure they are okey.

LOL, thanks for the explanation dad!

It gets humid in your house? I mean, South Carolina has humidity during a large part of the year, but inside of my condo it doesn't get humid. It warms up, but it doesn't turn into like being outside.

Wonder how far apart you and Mooby are. Sounds like you live in 2 separate parts of the country. Although, I guess if you live in the woods, that would make a huge difference by itself.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?
 

Where I live has more in common with central PA than central MD let alone northern VA. The weather for Baltimore and DC can also be very different. They will get 4 inches of snow and Baltimore will have rain.

Had to look up where Parkton was, you are just about in PA.

Everyone involved in drawing up the state lines of Maryland should be ashamed of themselves. Looks like something a 5-year-old on an etch-a-sketch would draw on accident.

I leave the a/c off when I go to work, come home and it's 75-80 in there. We don't all live in modern houses built in the last 20 years. My house doesn't have central a/c. Window units ftw.

Disagree, I live off the east side of 95 and 95 is typically the dividing line for snow - everywhere to the west/north usually gets snow that sticks and we get a slushy mix. We only had 2 instances of measurable snowfall last winter. I think the closer you are to the Potomac or the coast the worse off you are for snow.

But yeah I agree the weather for DC/NoVa and Baltimore can definitely be different.

Oh yes 95 definitely seems like a dividing line.

the closer to the ocean you are the less snow it seems

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?
 

Much of the reason if not all of it is the amounts of Sea Air ,salt concentration. Mooby lives on the Shore, yeah a bit inland but still typically shore weather. Baltimore and place's around there , Annapolis , So. Maryland get some of the same due to the Chesapeake bay and it's mixture of Salt and Fresh water.
DMV usually gets hammered when the storm comes from the South and the cold air comes from the West. They meet around VA,DC or Maryland and it's heavy wet snow.

When you are out on a trail at a state park, where signs are posted on every trail head, dogs must be on leash and some one has their off leash dog running at me while I am out for my run. Then has the audacity to tell me "it's okay she's friendly" Okay random stranger I'll take your word for it.

i seriously don't understand this, like what are the pros of your dog off leash? i can't think of any but i can make a huge con list

i have three dogs they are never off leash in public; my lab if we are going do ball we go to basically deserted sections of the county and i threw it to him then back on leash for the walk back to the car

i see it all the time on busy trails with bikes and runners other leashed dogs etc, it makes zero sense

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?
 

Pro's: Less work for the dog owner, more freedom for the dog.

Con's: Everything else, including up to being illegal altogether.

Once it's in there, you cannot focus on anything else until it's gone. Getting it out is not an option.

White trash losers who are an embarrassment to their race, city, county, country, the world. This can come in many forms. This morning it came in watching this white lady, perfectly able bodied, letting her black lab take a giant shit and just keep walking. She had no idea I was coming from a different direction. That isn't something you do once either, she had no intention of picking it up. So that means this piece of shit human being lets her dog shit all over our community, likely every day.

I would say the last several years I would be on a run on trails and I would find a bag of dog shit. This happens all the time. I have no clue if a person is coming back for it, or if they picked it up because people are around and then tossed it to the side of the trail when no one was around but it has become very common and grinds my gears.

I'm gonna go with they tossed it and aren't coming back. Hate people that can't even do basic decent things like picking up after your own dog. Not that hard of a concept, unless you're an asshole.

It's like the cart test - I judge people who can't walk their cart back to the cart rack after they're done shopping. It just basically says "idgaf about anyone else." I dated a girl like that once, coincidentally she also happened to be an asshole who didn't care about anyone else. It's a proven system.
