What (besides politics) irritates you?

Frock is just an abbreviated way of saying Fraggle Rock, right?

[GSUdawg521]

Well google it, I dunno why she used an outdated term. Also had to make sure she didn't say smock, cause I thought that was like what kids wear over their clothes at school when they paint. But sounds like either could refer to a dress-like garment. And then it looks like there's such a thing as a fuckin smock-frock

[scrock25]

In art we used to wear smocks?

That's what I was thinking.

Also, does smock + frock = scrock?

[snow1868]

After some Google sleuthing, I have discovered that a frock is another word for a dress. I am also gathering it's more of a Southern term as most of the Google results for frock were from Southern lifestyle blogs.

i get that with social media, we are the customers. there will be ads, and i get that. but what drives me nuts is that the ads are always the same. on FB, i'll click on an ad to hide it and FB asks why, so i say its because its repetitive. but clearly that doesnt do squat cause i keep seeing the same ads over and over

like, if the ads were always rotating i could deal with it. but seeing the same one(s) over and over and over and over and over and over gets really annoying.

anyways...FB...lol.

You are not the customer. You are the product. The customers are the advertisers that FB contracts with to serve up ads to the Muppets.

People who try to do B2B stuff on lunch hours. 11-1 should be off limits unless you know what that person's lunch hour is.

Don't call/show up and feign righteous indignation because the world doesn't revolve around you. This is why we schedule appointments.

Icing someone til about 1 right meow. They were supposed to do this at 11. Going to really enjoy lunch

Home fucking Depot.

Was supposed to have new appliances delivered. Dude calls from a few miles away, 'yeah, we're trying to deliver but it looks like your road is posted to a 6 ton limit... I'm in a semi-trailer truck so we need 13'.

Who the fuck makes these decisions to deliver goods to backwoods NH homes with a semi? Even if it wasn't spring with my road currently posted, good luck getting that thing down here.

Dummies.

[ExistenceNow]

So, y'all can't see it but there's a bot post above drop's promoting Lil Nas X's new song. So I guess that's one way he's promoting his music; spamming message boards with bot posts.

Wait, is it a weight issue or a height issue?

Weight... the ' was a lazy close quote.

Just about every road around me that's not the fucking highway has a weight limit in the spring at the very least... some are year round.

Me wondering if I can get on a piece of playground equipment with my 2 year old:

Also, I think it was you I told that 'I haven't seen a mouse in my house since getting a cat'. Yeah, I jinxed myself. She was chasing one around the basement last night. Fuuuuuck! I thought we were in the clear since I hadn't seen one at all in the fall/winter... fuck are you doing coming inside in the spring???

Good marketing. There's probably a huge overlap between DMB and Lil Nas fans.

Yeah I've been having mouse probs. Still not coming back in the garage, but I'm not sure about the basement. There's still a funky smell down there, but I haven't had a chance to clean everything. I'm gonna have to replace a ton of the drop ceiling tiles from all the shit and piss.

And I posted about finding one SEEING IT ALIVE inside my grill. So I'm going to be getting some outdoor traps/bait stations soon.

Love real oranges, but artificial orange is bad

Why is it that over the past year, I can only find Italian Parsley (looks like Cilantro)? I can never find good ole regular parsley, the circular bunch type, whatever the real name is called.

And what propaganda did Big Parsley concoct by calling this one Italian, as if you should choose it because "hey Italian cooking amirite?"

I just want some damn regular parsley for the soup I am making.

Interesting you can't find regular parsley. Could you use dry parsley from the spice aisle as a substitute?

[Tiduwho]

Eh, dry parsley doesn't do it for me. Just settled on the Italian parsley.

I feel like this has been the case for a year, I will check two or three stores anytime I am making something with parsley, and they are always out. Only Italian parsley.

[GSUdawg521]

Ya know, I feel like recently I too noticed a different looking parsley for the first time. I thought it was the Italian that looked normal and the one just named parsley that looked curlier than I remember. But I dunno what the difference is.

Do you know that they taste different? I think I've used both without noticing anything.

[drop2d]

I had to have someone from our tech support group help me get into my secondary work computer the other day. He texted me the encryption code to get in (if I leave it off for too long of a stretch, it locks and I need a key to get in). At almost the same exact time I got a spam text and have been getting them ever since.

I don't know if it's related but it sure seems to be.

There is flat leaf parsley (including Italian), and curly leaf parsley (what you want).

I’ll never understand why people that enjoy cooking and do it often don’t grow their own herbs. It’s so easy, saves money, and can grow whatever you want!

Fuck, my wife and I were looking to refinance and probably use her company, but we wanted to double check others didn't have better rates. I did one of those lending tree inquiries, and I kind of knew what I was about to be getting into. But literally the second I submitted my info, my phone blew up with emails, texts, and phone calls. It took about 2-3 days to make the emails and texts stop, but I still keep getting random calls a couple weeks later. I was ignoring them but now I'm trying to answer them to tell them to stfu, or block them.
