What's annoying you today? Part 2

[Jibralta]

My husband was baking and these oven mitts were hanging on the wall, when suddenly the one mitt combusted and he had to extinguish the flames.

 

That's not supposed to happen!!

I can relate. This morning I spilled a small container of fresh blueberries all over the kitchen floor.

 

I spilled the rest of my son's Froot Loops - it's his "vacation cereal" but we're bending the rules some. I've been limiting fresh produce somewhat because I can't really test it out -too much touching. I eagle-eyed my favorite apples and so far the first one is good!

 

Annoying: old friends who come out of the woodwork now with promises to call on a specific day in that rinse/repeat fashion -one particular friend has been doing this for years - and I respond in the same way "sure, I should be around tomorrow, try me!" She messaged me with the emphatic "I'll call you tomorrow!!" last Saturday.

[ApocalypseDreams]

People who are perpetually outraged.

The as*holes at Apple are giving me a hard time. It was so easy with Playstore, why are they so freakin fussy at Apple? What's your problem people.........Come on.

[Batya33]

People who are not 100% transparent about monetary benefits they get if you try a certain product they like.

Local people’s ty tudes. There are going to be a whole lot of people I relate to less after this is over. My mother always says when the chips are down that’s when your real personality comes out. It’s easy to be nice when everything goes well but when it doesn’t that’s a true test of your character. A LOT of people SUCK.

Being asked daily if I've had baby yet. Argh!!!!

[reinventmyself]

New posters who circle back with the same question that's been answered 50 different ways.

"But why???"

[Jibralta]

Medical professionals who despise humanity and its imperfections. Bizarre that such people are entrusted with the responsibility of caring for others.

A certain someone who keeps saying this virus is all fake and that it's only a flu. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! It has to be lack of intelligence, surely.

[Batya33]

Having to regularly stop myself from going down the path of -hmmm is this now ready to touch? disinfected enough, etc - it's "annoying" because I don't go into phobic mode. But it's challenging!

[dias]

I can't concentrate. I can only concentrate when I work or train. But I can't stay focused for more than a minute when I am doing anything else. I can't watch movies or TV. My brain jumps from one whatever subject to another whatever subject. It's irritating.

Misinformed people who repost stuff before fact checking.

Yes, I had this, then posted the snopes link and then was attacked by some random person -blocked him.

[Wiseman2]

😨That has been a pandemic for quite a while.

Misinformed people who repost stuff before fact checking.

[Wiseman2]

Anytime the is is this much angst, rumors soar.

[greendots]

Snopes!! You're brilliant! Why didn't I think of this. Good you blocked the person who attacked you, Batya.

 

Wiseman, yeah unfortunately. I dream of the day that there's a vaccine to cure this.

[Wiseman2]

Coronavirus or stupidity? 😋

I dream of the day that there's a vaccine to cure this.

The person who attacked me went on a diatribe about snopes then asked me if I wanted him to share his expert opinion. I declined, he did it anyway lol.

Sick and tired of this "coronapanic".

[Batya33]

Sick and tired of this "coronapanic".

 

We've lost three relatives to it so far and the father of a dear friend. I'm tired of all the extra cleaning/shopping/cooking/childcare work it entails and thankful we are all healthy.

[boltnrun]

I have a sore throat and a headache. Occasional cough, not a deep dry cough and not constant. No fever, no chills, and I can breathe just fine although when I exert myself my chest hurts. But when I use the symptom checker on WebMD it says "isolate yourself NOW! Stay in quarantine for 14 days, you have symptoms!!!" But the doctor I saw on March 21st said I have a seasonal upper respiratory irritation, which I get every year several times a year. And this is the second or third bout just in the past 2 months. Again, totally normal for me.

 

It is possible to just have a common cold and not every sore throat is the dreaded virus!

 

You should have heard my online class instructor, she admitted to being sick and she sounded awful. She only coughed a couple of times but it sounded rough, and she lost her voice twice. Good thing she is working from home although she is putting in 12 hour days.

I am so so sorry . 😓

[Batya33]

I am so so sorry . 😓

 

Thanks so much. Oh and my friend's mom too. I can't believe I forgot. Thank you.

[HeartGoesOn]

I'm sorry to hear that, Batya.

 

My mom said that this reminds her of an Alfred Hitchcock movie.
