Backseat driving has been rustling my jimmies lately. Bonus rustling for a passenger making a suggestion for something I was less than 5 seconds away from doing anyway.

I'm sorry, you're right Void, it's 1TB, that's the cap I was meeting halfway through the month. For some reason I was remembering it lower.
Still, what's 1TB when I'm streaming 4k from AmazonPrimeTV and downloading other TV and movies and playing games in the interwebs?

Oh I'm with you, caps suck, which is why I have Business like I said. I go through a TB easy a month since I download all my shows, movies, and porn. And none of it is 4k, all the shows (except a few like Planet Earth II) are only 720p.

Planet Earth 2 in 4k was well worth going over a data cap for.

So I hit a food truck across the street today (Kogi) and buy an $8 burrito. The dude hands me back $6 and some coins and I look down and say, wtf where is my money at which point he tells me to look again at the coins and I notice there are silver dollars. At this point, my Jimmies are fairly rusted but I don't want to bog down the already long line so I move on. I stand there and count 2 silver dollar pieces and like 6 quarters and my elite math skills tell me something is up.
So, I wait and slide in as seamlessly as possible and say hey, A) I didn't want these fucking coins to start and B) you shorted me. He says I'm wrong and when I point out he can't add he tells me they can't give me more money until they count the register and I could try and hunt them down tomorrow. Yes, let me drive all over LA for 4 bucks, you cunt.
Jimmies Rustled hard.

I should have added that the 6 quarters came from purchases of coffee earlier in the day and yes tax was included. There were also misc coins from the shit he handed me and said earlier purchases.

I fucking hate working with the too poor to ride Greyhound people. They come on my trains living up to the stereotype, all drugged out, drunk, and crazy. After shaking this woman and telling her to get the fuck off the train because it's her stop, she wakes up and spits in my face so I call for another employee to help me out and he takes all 800 of her god damn plastic bags downstairs to the door. 15 minutes later when we finally get her off the train and she starts crying about how we stole her jacket, shoes, and, most importantly, her liquor. I start tossing her bags off the train, aiming for her head and she's crying about it being cold outside and how we can't let her walk around on gravel barefoot. Once we get clear signals to leave we start to pull out of the station and I tell her I hope she gets hit by a the next train that comes through.
This job has turned me into a miserable person. Thank fuck I work in the train yards now.
She looked pretty close to this:

I used to be pretty PC idiot 18 yr old left wing..... Then I worked in real life, most notably intern in probation, worked hospital ER's for a few years, now a fed contract and often in hearing offices and social security....... Yeah lets just say I hate poor people. Very few are truly the ones that got fucked by life and a solid 90% are all bad choices and chronic retardation.

Disagree. The mythical ghost poop tickles my pickle. For it to be a true ghost poop though you have to come away with clean toilet paper on your first wipe and no shit to be seen in the bowl.

My upstairs neighbors. They have a fucking toddler and every day I hear stomp stomp stomp. I went up there yesterday to knock on their door to tell them to knock it the fuck off and they didn't even open the door they threatened to call 911. I hope their child gets kidnapped by a pedophile.

Who threatens to call 911 when someone knocks on their door or did you pound on their door like a maniac trying to break it down?
Work been rustling my jimmies the past couple weeks as bosses hold me to a higher standard than everyone else including themselves and the one other cook who is (probably) getting paid more than me... Especially after being told they couldn't afford to give me the raise I asked for. In my defense, I have no problem being held to a higher standard than people that make less money than I do, I just think it's bullshit when people who make more than me or who are in management/leadership positions aren't held to at least the same standards I am.
PS: On the homeless subject, the reason 99% of the ones you run in to are chronic retardation/bad choices/drugs/etc is because the ones who get legitimately fucked aren't homeless for long as they dig themselves out of it.

That and also in LA, you have some folks who's full time gig is pretending to be homeless. There's a guy who sits in Marina del Rey on the corner who constantly has a bankroll like a fucking drug dealer and takes off his rags when he hops into his jaguar. It's pretty rustling.

Oh yeah, I met/knew a few people down in south florida who made 2-5x as much as I did for a day of work just panhandling. Easy money if you have no self respect.

I moved to a small town and want to enroll my daughter in the local ISD preschool. I dont meet the criteria for her to be in the free program which is fine, the tuition is reasonable.
BUT there is a waitlist and tuition payers sit at the bottom behind any kid who doesn't speak english or falls in the free income bracket, no matter when they get put on it.

your privilege just got checked.
Dad told me he lost his wallet today, which he said had a $100 or so in cash in it. Not a care in the world.
