Things that frustrate us all

Wanting a beer while I cook, but don’t know if I’ll be required to pick up the wife and friend later on.
 
5:20 am

That particular combination of Arabic, Byzantine, and Roman glyphs should NEVER be seen unless it toward the end of one's day and it's time to start winding down.

I am sorry but I have no idea what you're talking about.*


*And that's a little frustrating.
 
It’s frustrating when people constantly tell you they’re worried about you. When people say that it feels like like they don’t think you’re equipped enough to deal with your own problems.

Also it’s a little degrading as someone who has mental health issues.
 
I can only speak for myself, but when I tell people I'm worried about them, it's because they've demonstrated that they're not happy and I hate the thought of my friends not being happy. It's not that I feel that they can't handle themselves or that I think they're going to do anything detrimental to themselves. Lord knows I've had people "worried" I would do something to myself to the point that they've detained me against my will (and I'm not talking about sending me to a psych unit) to the point that I had to call the police to have them release me. For me, personally, it's an empathic thing. A sympathy thing. All I know is that a friend or family member has told me that they're suffering and that makes me very, very sad. I really don't like the thought of someone I like or love suffering inside, whatever the situation is.

Maybe because I know what goes on in my own head and I know how much it sucks.
 
Well, I was a little thrown off by the fact that you seemed to be wanting to see a morning time in the evening.

Ah. I get it. Yes, I'm a night person. I HATE waking up in the mornings. I would much rather be going to bed somewhere between 6-9 am rather than waking up at 4:30-6 am. I am the night.

I see. I have an old clock with a long pendulum that has hands instead of a digital display. Would that be less frustrating to wake up to that?;)
 
phishing and blackmail mails. I just got one of each sort. The first tries to bully me into to transfering half a month's wages at once or I'll be sued for not paying a bill I never made. In order to pay I am supposed to klick a link. Ridiculous, of course, but also annoying as they have my address and phone number - a breach of privacy. A copy of this mail will go to the police's cybercrime department first thing on Monday.

The other mail claims I got hacked and must pay some bitcoins into an account or my computer will get shut down. Even more ridiculous but far less serious. The delete button will suffice for that one.
