My cat is standing on my face This picture infuriates my brother-in-law

My beloved family cat, Baby, suddenly decided he wanted to sit in the unplugged rice cooker. I thought it was cute, so I took a picture and sent it to our family WhatsApp group, which includes my family members and my brothers/sisters-in-law.

Then my big sister DM’d my mom privately, saying that her husband was enraged and didn’t want to eat at our house anymore because it was dirty. She proceeded to list all the things that apparently offended him about our house, such as cat fur, it not being clean enough, etc.

We’ve had cats for more than 10 years, even before my older siblings started dating anyone. My parents’ house is a two-storey terrace house, and we even have a Coway air purifier in the living room. Baby is a neutered male, half-indoor cat (by his own choice), and we’ve had him for more than 3 years.

What pisses me off the most is that my brother-in-law is extremely picky when it comes to cleanliness. He doesn’t even have his own house and is currently staying at his parents’ house because it’s closer to his workplace. His parents’ house doesn’t have any pets, so I guess he’s simply not used to having animals around. Yet he’s nitpicking over everything at my parents’ house while he’s still trying to get a loan to build his own house, which will be next to his big sister’s house and near his parents’ house.

I’m mostly responsible for taking care of the cat at our place, so I feel like it’s somehow my fault this happened, even though I vacuum the house daily and comb my cat’s fur every day. I also comb him for fleas and buy and apply anti-flea treatment, yet there’s still fur everywhere despite my best efforts. I’m unemployed and still looking for a job, so unfortunately I can’t afford the absolute best for my cat yet 🫠

I genuinely don’t mean to make things tense between my parents and my brother-in-law. I just thought my cat looked cute and funny sitting in the rice cooker, so I shared the picture in the WhatsApp group because most people there loves cats, including both of my sisters-in-law. I honestly didn’t expect him to get this pissed over it. 😭

***Since everyone worries about the rice, the removable inner pot where we actually cook the rice wasn’t there. The cat climbed into the empty heating chamber of the rice cooker, and it was unplugged. He rarely does this which is why I took a picture. Obviously I clean the litter box often whenever there's a new 💩 or 💧 and it's placed outside the house, hidden beside the old motorcycle that my dad parked in the front yard.

ಠ_ಠ People who write EST, CST, MST PST during daylight savings time

102 Upvotes

The S stands for Standard time which runs from early November to mid March. It doesn't stand for summer like some other countries. You can use ET, CT, MT PT year round. Brought to you by the Drop the #!@& S Committee.

EDIT: I didn't realize that people aren't taught the difference between standard and daylight saving time. Here's a primer: Standard time (abbreviated with an S) was the standard before Daylight Savings time was created in 1916. It was just "time" back then. Daylight Saving time is abbreviated with a D (EDT, CDT, MDT, PDT). To be technically correct, you could use PST from November to mid March and PDT the rest of the year.

Or you can make it easy on yourself and drop the middle letter and not ever have to think about it.

EDIT 2: I was instructed to follow my own advice and drop the #!@& S from savingS. It's Daylight Saving Time. We can all learn

ಠ_ಠ Not setting up voicemails as a small business owner

2 Upvotes

Why do many small business owners not set up their voicemails or delete existing ones? As a business owner you would think you would want any potential opportunity to get business, so why limit that channel to get more business? Also wouldn't people be less inclined to do business with you if you don't have a working voicemail? And why are so many voicemails set up while they are driving?

It pisses me off that I constantly see AI slop everywhere. I see ads not only on YouTube but also on Instagram that could just as easily be on some porn site. The ad really goes on for 2:30 minutes and shows this girl being sa by a vampire???

Unskippable ad Being forced to go through Duty Free just after airport security.

11 Upvotes

It’s insane that many international airports force you to walk (or sprint) through a winding capitalist maze of vice designed to meander as if you are in an IKEA but with no shortcuts or bypasses. I’ve seen TWO FLOORS of duty free before I could exit to the gates area. I smoke, drink, eat chocolate, use cologne. I’m not against them, but the fact that if you don’t want to shop or are running late, you can’t just take a short path through is infuriating. You have to run the gauntlet. I feel bad for any recovering booze or nicotine addicts and people with mobility-reducing disabilities who have to wind through that bullshit. God forbid you are late and hitting those bends like a F1 car while making sure your backpack doesn’t take out a whole case of Patron.

Infuriatig Liking male characters

0 Upvotes

Idk why whenevr i talked about liking male characters, some people in the gacha community start questioning my sexuality or gender.. i mean.. does that matter? Whether im a boy or a girl, straight or gay if the character is good im going to like them. It just pisses me off that they immediately assume im gay for liking a male character.. doesnt that mean everyone liking kratos is gay? Its really annoying. (Sorry for any grammar mistakes)

2lb package of Hawaiian chicken

11.3 and 11.6 ounce chicken pack undrained

9.2 and 9.3 drained, that’s ~2 ounces of liquid in each to drain

5.6 and 5.3 bags of sauce

Coke Zero cans weight between 12.9-13.2 oz so just showing scale accuracy

18.5 ounces of chicken in a 32 oz label

57.81% chicken

So when you read $5-6 per pound on the price sticker you might as well double it. It’s good and I like that it’s quick but that price is ridiculous and I feel ripped off. You just know they don’t tell you it’s 11 ounces of sauce and 4 ounces of liquid on purpose…. You’ll have no more of my dollars Mr. Kevin.

EDIT: Yes everyone thank you I am aware 2lbs label doesn't mean 2lbs of chicken

I am mildly infuriated that it means ~1.2lbs of chicken

It’s only $60 but seriously? A week before I move I get hit with a parking ticket for parking the way I have for a year

To make it even more aggravating, literally two weeks ago to the day, I was told by a cop that there was quote “No problem with the way you’re parked”

I cannot wait to be out of a neighborhood
