Typhoon Boggles my mind. This was all yesterday: Guy at indoor golf hitting his own TP5 ball into the net. He shanks one and it goes into the corner of the net. He walks up to the corner (this is the only ball he is hitting too mind you) looks down at the bunched up net and walks away, says “”I don’t see it”. I walk over with my club and move one fold of netting on the floor and there it is. Hair balls on Nicks rug… does he NOT ever look down? In the grocery store. Wife says “they are out of Peets Big Bang Coffee and grabs another type off the bottom shelf. I bend over and look to the back of the shelf and there they were. Still in the grocery store I see see Captn Phil from the golf course. He’s shopping for his mother. I’m in the juice aisle with him and he says,” AW, no Tomato juice with the red cap, moms gonna be pissed, all they have is green cap”. I can see it faces off where possibly red cap regular one ,not low sodium would go. I bend over and see 6-7 red cap ones. I pull one out and give it to him. Wtf?
Bravopilot Typhoon Come down my way, had a hard time finding some stuff at Home Depot--the local store has crap all mixed up and not as listed. App sucks and doesn't work in the store--not good signals. House reno sucks--as you already know.
sdandrea1 Typhoon Those are the same dipshits that are loading up their coolers and coming to your golf course.
johnnydoom Typhoon It's a strange thing to hear coming from an engineer, but I'm not a naturally detail oriented person. I only notice details when I'm looking for them. Otherwise, I'm only generally aware of my surroundings and process every day activities by intuition. I only get into details and logic when in problem solving mode, it doesn't come naturally to me.
Rickochet garyt1957 You live in the dumbest town in America Reminds me of comedian Bill Engvall who did a skit about stupid people, "Here's your sign."
Rickochet Eguller It wasn't 10 mins after I posted the above post and I was at a produce stand to get some tomatoes. A guy walks up and starts fondling the cantaloupes. He asks the lady, "Are these any good?" I was waiting for the lady to say, "Naw, they taste like crap and we sell them just to piss people off." Here's your sign. I almost wet myself. 🤣
Cwing Rickochet In fairness, I’d have no idea how to select which cantaloupe. I’m sure there’s a method as to ripeness, etc… On that matter, how does one know which avocado to select? Beats me.
sdandrea1 Me: Honey, do you know where the hot sauce is? SWMBO: Have you looked for it? Me: Looking doesn't work. Can you just tell me where it is? SWMBO: OMG......
garyt1957 sdandrea1 My wife knows where everything is, so I just ask without looking. And even if it's mine and I know where I put it I know she's likely moved it to a "better" place
Bravopilot garyt1957 Ex-wife was here for 10 days recently helping me with renovation, forgot what it is like to have passive-aggressive help finding things I didn't know I needed. But was great help overall.
sdandrea1 rsvman2 Your wife knew where it was, even if she has never been to the forum before My wife gets mad at me for stuff I haven't done yet........
Mattyv I got yelled at the other day becasue I was going golfing and not taking my wife out to brunch. This was not discussed with me at anytime in the prior 7 days. In addition, in the 20+ years we have been together we have maybe done brunch 5-10 times EVER! Apparently she had a craving for pancakes going on that I was never informed of, but it turned out to be my fault for not having a psychic connection into her brain to know this was going on. 🤣
sdandrea1 Mattyv it turned out to be my fault for not having a psychic connection into her brain to know this was going on Of course. This is the way.
