What Annoyed You Today?

Don't worry about it Buck - it'll get worse with age, so make the most of things now!!

Don't worry about it Buck - it'll get worse with age, so make the most of things now!!

I'm all too aware of it. I've been suffering with on and off pains in my left shoulder since busting it up in a auto accident in my early 20's. Right shoulder since busting it up in a Motorcycle accident in my early 30's. Now in my late 40's.
Need to start regular stretches and weight lifing again, that has helped in the past. Have even considered Yoga and some accupuncture, like one large needle in the middle of the forehead!

 

[vikingBerserker]

Buck, it sounds like you have lived a good life so far my friend.

 

[GrauGeist]

I've dealt with artheritis for years and it's no fun.

This recent wreck is adding a whole new galaxy of fun for the cold months...these cool mornings lately have already given me a sneak preview...I can't wait for winter to begin :/

 

[meatloaf109]

Ah, yes. I can dig it.
I have been shot, stabbed, and had 9 bones broken over the years.
Every one gives me a unique view into the weather.
I am just glad that I have Chihuahuas that like to lick my toes.
You can't pay for that.
Just sayin'

 

[tomo pauk]

Have had an almost wordless clash with my wife. I'm really upset.

 

[Readie]

Ummm... those are the worse. What didn't you say ( that you should have) or say ( that you shouldn't have)....
Confused?
Join the club mate.

We were in a car, and I've just discovered that I've missed to do something. She commented on it, somewhat longer than I was able to swallow in that moment (usually I'm tolerant to her, she is even more tolerant to me). So instead of replying to her, I've just turned the radio on, and haven't spoke a word next 5 minutes, until I got to my work. She was also upset then.
Now everything is okay, we've ironed out the stuff - we usually do, in, now, 7 years of marriage.

This is what I have learned after 32 yrs of marriage....

Thanks for the insight, fubar. Sure wish I'd learned it about fifteen years ago.

I point this out to my 16 year old lad as he enters the morass known as girlfriends.
He should be practiced with 2 older sisters, Mum, aunts and Grandma though.... however, the finer points of knowing when to shut up escape him

Women. A bit like 1950's sports cars - great to take out on a sunny day, a bit difficult to understand how they work sometimes, and not at other times, expensive to run and probably more trouble than they're worth, but you don't really want to get rid of one .......

 

[Readie]

... a bit difficult to understand how they work sometimes....

After 2 daughters, a missus and sister in laws I am only qualified in the art of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.... and I DO try to get it right too..

A while back, a friend of mine's wife was visiting relatives in Washington state. As luck would have it, she missed her flight home. Being extremely upset, she called him to tell him the news and through sobs, explained to him that she missed her flight.

Being the level-headed guy that he is, he said sympathetically "no problem, just catch the next flight" at which she got all upset, telling him that he didn't understand: she MISSED her flight!

He told her that he completely understood and it wasn't any cause for concern and easily fixed, just catch the next flight home, there's several flights a day headed to northern California.

At this point, she was almost yelling at him "You do NOT understand! I MISSED my flight!!" and she started crying again...

The lesson here is obvious:
A guy sees a problem in black and white. Easily fixed.
A woman sees a problem in 3D technicolor with entire galaxies of possible alternate problems floating around the core, each one being related by the remotest chance.

If we were to try and convert this logic to actual mathmatics, it would be like dividing by zero...so don't.

Waking up this bloody early, just before 4 am and being wide awake!

 

[T Bolt]

This should explain it all

You're right, that divide by zero thing comes up in some problems I've been working on for several years now and with results quite similar to the one in the picture.
