2:45 As someone who was a cleaner for YEARS we don't clear out/maintain your fridges and people do expect you to. The reason we don't is the second we do start cleaning the fridges and throw ANYTHING AWAY that's moldy or spoilt milk and literally ANYTHING we get complaints that the cleaning staff are stealing their food, even when we say it was off/moldy/spoilt they do not care. So typically, cleaners don't clean or maintain your fridges because we'd be accused of stealing and it's not worth the hassle and also, clean your own damn spoilt food, you're adults lol
I worked as a housekeeper in a nursing home and part of my occasional duties(we rotated responsibility for the task because it was inevitably disgusting) was cleaning out the break room’s fridge once a month. Take everything out , spray with 103, wipe down. Anything that was clearly moldy or expired like long-forgotten coffee creamer or condiments, or, rather unpopularly, food without a name and date on it after the lunch periods were over, was thrown away without care for whose it might be. There was clear signage, after all, and good luck taking any complaints about the policy to my old boss… she was vicious 😅
I cleaned a college and all the teachers had fridges. We had to do the same thing. Like I'm not stealing your moldy milk, Linda. So we just don't clean them, also to avoid them, because of their scratched they'll blame us to get a new fridge and the cleaner gets written up, so no touchy fridges. Or anything they own 😅
I think that if you really do want someone to clean specific places like your fridge you should ask them to if you're paying them or not ask them at all if you don't want them to
I feel that. I used to work at an assisted living place, and one of my residents had a daughter who started accusing staff of stealing things by putting them in the trash and then sneaking them out of her dad’s room in the trash bag when we took out the garbage for the day (weird-ass way to make that accusation, btw, lmao.) So our manager worked out a plan, WITH HER, that we would not be allowed to remove any trash from her father’s room without a manager present. Lo and behold, the bitch shows up one night well after the management had gone home for the night (I worked graveyards) and holds out a bag of trash from her dad’s room, telling me it needs to go out. I politely remind her that we aren’t allowed to take her dad’s trash out without the manager around because of the theft concerns. She gets pissy and stomps off down the hallway with the trash bag in hand, yelling about how “ridiculous” it is and how she has to do everything herself. Like…ma’am. It’s your own fault we have to do things that way. Wtf. 😂

15:01 I’m not surprised. I’ve told millions of people since working at Starbucks: they fired me because I refused to serve a 10lb bag of beans that spilled on the floor. I called osha over it and got served my pink slip because I used the restroom for the first time in 5 hours.
To clarify, I called after they fired me. Because they made another girl pour them into the hopper and were super mad I refused and walked away. I didn’t walk out and I should’ve.

i could tell you horror stories about my 4 months work at wallmart, or as i like to call it "hellmart". i worked as a cashier for 4 months before they sacked me because I “dared” to ask for sick leaves when I almost got Myositis on my wrists and left hip/leg for standing too long because they didn’t provide chairs for cashiers so we stay 9 hours standing and checking the products like madmen with a train of customers lining up with each shopping cart bigger and fuller than the next. I also got a warning for asking for days off for my college exams. Besides being told to arrive at 6 am in the middle of a tundra-like blizzard every 4 days during the winter, or the unnecessary mandatory fire drills where they force us to stand outside in the middle of January under -35 winter cold, I had my share of horrible, bosses, supervisors and customers. I remember pricing an item for a woman who came in with a blouse that had a smudge on it. it was very faint and almost unoticible. She said: “I want to take this one for free since it has dirt on it” throwing the blouse at my face. In a split second, I shielded my face with my hands as I couldn’t see what she threw at me because it happened too fast I thought she was going to hit me with a blunt object (getting hit by customers on the head is not uncommon in these cheap retail establishments). I stood there dumbfounded for exactly 10 seconds trying to process what had just happened. Everyone from the people behind her to my colleague in front of me to my supervisor who was behind me watching me like a hawk saw that. and no one did anything. In fact, they continued to look away at their phones and shopping carts and pretended they didn’t see someone was getting assaulted. I bet there are 3 or 4 copies of this blouse hanging on the racket that don’t have stains. but she deliberately picked the dirty one so she could pull off this stupid stunt. I tried so hard to swallow what little dignity I had and muster all of my strength to not attack her on the spot and calmly told her: “Ma’am, I cannot do that. If it’s not on sale, I cannot give you any discount”. She then looked at me like I had insulted her ancestors or something. I continued to check her items as I wanted to get rid of her as fast as I could. Come in the next customer who saw everything. Believe it or not, she wanted to pull THE EXACT SAME STUNT the first woman did! As I was checking her items she pulled off a shirt and said: “This one has a loose thread, can I get a 50% discount on it?”. I glared at her for exactly 5 seconds, dead in her eyes before she pulled her shirt away saying: “Never mind, continue” with a smug grin on her face. If there is any justice left in this world, I hope to live a day to see these retail businesses going bankrupt and obsolete. with the CEOs squirming in agony losing all their millions and instead gaining debts over debts.
I'm in a wheelchair. At work the cube halls were too small and I had to enter someone else's cube to get into mine. The only women's wheelchair bathroom was on the south side and I was forced to sit in the center of the building. I've been moved to permanent telecommute after it became a big hassle to get my behind-the-turnstyle parking access. That boss got moved after every one of us pointed out he only hired people who also went to his university. He was not ready for the entire team to call out his behavior. New boss is all behind my full time telecommute being permanent. The sad thing is, the most wheelchair friendly place I have ever been was a casino. Ramps and space everywhere, wheelchair stalls in every bathroom.
On the body armored bags: MANY SCHOOLS IN AMERICA WILL NOT LET STUDENTS CARRY THEIR BAGS AT ALL AND DON'T TELL THE PARENTS THIS I went to three schools that had lockers that were always placed horribly, and two of them told us we could not carry bags, jackets, sweaters, purses, or extra books of any kind, they insisted we use our locker every passing period but most of us couldn't get to the locker in the 5 minutes they gave us due to the lay out of the school. One of these schools didn't have heating and I have lived in Michigan my whole life, where it is cold most of the year. The body armor bags will do nothing to save your children if the attacker aims above the back and if your kid goes to one of these inconsiderate schools they are a waste of money, you would be better off sending them in an actual body armor vest
My high school has this, when the only middle school that is meant to go into it doesn't, and we can't even bring bags at all to some classes because the teachers get to decide whether or not to add on random ass rules.
Wasps are so weird There's a nest of them behind my window thingy outside and when you leave or enter the house, they come out and sit on it And it's like they understand what you're saying, if you say something nice they go back inside If you say something rude, they start flying If you say two rude things they fly straight at you and miss on purpose If you're REALLY rude to them, all 4 of them divebomb you and sting you

Actually, I’m glad Wendy’s has the baked potatoes, my grandma can only eat soft food, so it gives her an option of what to eat when we go there. She gets the one with cheese, and she’s never been disappointed.
55:32 The test isn't just about selecting the right squares. The test also calculate the cursor's movements. A robot or AI program moves in straight lines, and with efficient speed. A human hand hovers, jitters and doubts their selection. I often select and unselect a square or two on purpose. Never had an issue with these tests.
So funny story about the side walk, when I was a kid, our street didnt have sidewalks, so my dad decided to talk our neighbors into it and pitched in to get a sidewalk put in front of our houses, they got permits and everything. But because of that, we were in sole possession of the sidewalks and it wasn't city property. We have since moved so Im not sure if new owners now own it or if the city now owns it.
Recently we had a bunch of secular trees cut down. The not so funny part is that activists got angry at the company who did it (a public upkeep company that manages the city's integrity) and said they shouldn't be ever again in charge of trees. Come to find out from the local news that the trees were risk C or D of falling which is why not all the trees were cut in the first place but also why some had to be cut fairly quickly. Because we love trees on roads, yes so nice and cozy! But we don't love trees falling on passerbys, cyclists, cars, buses etc. In fact they said recently the trees are going to be replaced by new trees. I absolutely hated the "I was _xyz_ years old" piece of paper activists left over a genuine issue that could've resulted in plenty of injuries. Some times the excuses people give are stupid or shitty or made up. But I can hardly believe a tree falling can be an excuse or made up but a serious issue.
@@3_or_more_characters. they did. My mom was wondering why they cut only a few and not all and it was specifically as those were deemed at high risk of falling. The road still looks very full of trees in my opinion. With some bald spots of course but since they didn't cut them all entirely it's still nicely shaded.
10:00 So it looks like they miscalculated the 10% They calculated it as a 0.1% raise. If this wasn’t intentional, they need to go back to highschool math or it’s they did this intentionally. Basically they put the formula with 0.10/100 (0.1%) instead of the correct 10/100 (10%)
Apparently subscriptions were made popular around 2000-2010 with things like streaming and stuff. I mean, subscription service type things started in like the 17th century, but modern subscription services that are like they are now started in like 2005.
46:08 I wish the OPs in this subreddit would name and shame the companies doing this kind of crap. Because that’s the only way they’re gonna stop, and it’s not like you’re doxxing anyone. And correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t count as slander or defamation if you can prove it.
9:48 instead of taking the pay rate percentage and converting it to decimal (1+10/100), they converted it to decimal and then converted it to decimal again (1+(10/100)/100), which means that they instead got an increase of 1%, which isn't 10%. this is probably illegal
9:59 That's not how you calculate a 10% increase. *That* is a 0.1% increase, which is basically nothing. Instead, multiply the current pay (26.35) by 1.1, or 110% percent. This gives you 26.35(1.1)=28.985 or 28.98/hour (28.99 if they're nice but based on this, I doubt they would be).

Ups guy writes the notes in the car and runs to the door and back. Also delivery people don't actually answer to the customer sadly. They answer to their deranged managers usually
Yeah, my dad did that job for a while. 8 hours in the Texas heat, no AC in the vehicle, maybe a fan if you're lucky (but not in most). Literally seconds to make deliveries at points because they're given too many packages and terrible routes. They leave a note and run because standing even a minute or two to wait for you to come to the door could get them written up or lose their job. People shouldn't be blaming the delivery guy, they should be blaming the company that doesn't given him the time to do his job properly.
10:54 Also, I'd really appreciate it if they would stop censoring the prices of the burgers from their menus. This is fast food, not some upscale restaurant where the price is so high I don't even want to look at it. Knowing the price helps the line move faster, which is sort of the entire point of your business model.
I managed a McDonalds in college. Corporate told us that we can't give employees more that $300 as a gift. If the underpaid, depressed 20 year old can't give you more than a 1 time payment of $300, please don't blame them, blame the company.
Okay Robin, about the spiders: if you find a spider in your house, that spider will most likely be too adapted to living indoors to be released back outside. If it's not a harmful spider (like the daddy long legs in the post), what you do is trap them in a cup, and then release them into a corner of your home that you won't mind them being. They will take care of the annoying bugs for you
@@illegalopinions4082 I doubt it. The epa is pretty much non existent in the middle of nowhere. I will try to report it though. I hate it. It makes me literally sick every time. I get an upper respiratory infection.
@@willowpup360 in case you're curious, the reason they can't bite is because they don't actually have fangs durable enough to pierce human skin they also don't have venom they eat tiny bugs like gnats and mites
Their only defense if they are spotted by a predators is being able to drop their legs or leg segments if the predator grabs them. They can't even regrow them.
@reaganeidemiller7132 in fact, they dont even have fangs. They have pincer-like mouthpieces more similar to that of a scorpion. Theyre just funky lil guys :]
20:48 I had a friend my age do that, when the can wasn’t cold anymore he would get a new one and leave what ever was left in the can he had before to just sit. It’s not only a old person thing
Last Saturday I went to the beach and on my way home I decided to sit and wait under the bus stop thingy as two sketchy looking foreign guys came near me. This proved to be a very stupid idea. A spider that was light brown/golden came crawling on my tanning bed as it was resting against the plastic structure. I don't know what spider it was as googling it made me feel sick and scared and I didn't find any spider that matched. It wasn't super big like maybe half an inch or so if not smaller. Still pretty big for a European like me. And what was even worse is that the bus was about to arrive. It was some regional bus line that goes from my big city (Genova Italy) to a smaller town outside the city. So if I missed the bus because of this mofo, I would've had to wait 30 extra minutes. So I was debating between getting on the bus with this little fella on my chair hoping he doesn't decide to crawl over my hand and arm 🤮. Or make sure he leaves my chair. I tried the latter but this guy kept making spider webs to keep himself tied to my chair. Eventually before the bus came I was able to get him off of there, back on the structure and pulled the chair so hard to make sure any remaining web was destroyed so he couldn't be attached to my chair in any way. I had tried this before and this thing detached from the wall and was floating next to my chair and back on it. Sure my tanning bed is green but it's no plant you can leave.
16:10 have one of these cars in my area. It's vanity plate is "LOWPOLY" Wish I was making this up because omfg it's so fucking hideous to look at. Especially when the sun glares down onto one of its sides.
22:33 As someone who always gets the sour cream and chives baked potato from Wendy's, I can tell you that the sour cream comes in separate packets on the side. I've also had a few times recently where I got no chives on it, though it's not as big of a deal for me, as I just load the thing up with cheese and butter. I definitely understand the disappointment others would feel, though, especially if they're at the restaurant and can't go home to put other toppings on it.
Yeah, any subscription service for shit that doesn't need one needs to die out. For example, xbox. It started on the Xbox One where you needed a subscription just to play multiplayer on most games and there are some games that you pay for that you can't even play one bit because the game is nothing but multiplayer.

I looked up what age oak trees can get, because some trees legitimately don't live that long (eg apple trees), so perhaps this tree had to be felled for safety reasons towards the end of its life cycle. But no, oak trees can get anywhere between 600-1,000 years old, so this one would have had plenty of time left most likely :'(
Baked potatos were one of the original primary items on the Wendy's menu. They used to have a whole baked potato bar. It used to be, arguably, the best thing they offered.
To keep a daddy longlegs spider safe, just move him to a different part of the house preferably or outside. They eat flies and other spiders, here in New Zealand they are most known to eat white tail spiders and black widow spiders. Also Edit: In the case of motor oil not having pull tabs, you’re meant to make a small hole and use it to control the pour so you dont spill oil all over the engine bay or the engine. Or you could be a sane person and use a funnel like every other human being
For people noticing their amazon cart being short a few cents, there are lots of products on Amazon priced for under a dollar. If you don't actually want the item when it arrives then donate it to a charity. I like to get craft items as charity shops are frequented by folks in my area who buy up cheap art supplies and donate them to prisons or nursing homes.

9:00 on most unfuriating reddit posts im usually not commenting on for various reasons but at someone who is past the age of 25 and for many complicated reasons still learning how to be an independent person this infurriates me so much i just have to say something because it basically becomes personal. im putting in so much efford to learn things my mom should have taught me as a teenager and you cant look up anywhere because society just assumes once your an adult you know everything there is and people like her are out there, not even rinsing out with plain whater while im learning cleaning utensils and that women probably is also considerably older then me as well. its insane how someone can be old enough to have a child thats probably either teenager or an adult them self and she still cant look after her self, if it was a sudden change i have no idea what would trigger that but im even more dumbfoundled if it has always been that way. how can someone get up to 40 years old or maybe older and not know how to clean up after them selfs and then even specifically just the cups. its one thing if she never made food her self and doesnt know how to clean it up but the focus on the cups means she probably does everything else just fine but the cups which should be one of the most easy things there is for some reason arent getting done. im going to stop before i rant and angry yell even more but i hope it comes across how upset this makes me. a person who has a child unless they are elderly or have some sort of medical condition rendering them unable to do it should not have there own child look after them, more specifically it shouldnt be necessary.
44:39 It isn't actually necessarily A.I's fault for this, there have been popular TikTok trends of people gaslighting and damaging the information that A.I systems like ChatGPT contain and since A.I changes and adapts depending on it's interactions to further improve it, not to mention that if it's told enough that it has incorrect information it takes it incredibly seriously. Someone probably gaslit the system into replacing the correct information with the incorrect one which only causes a major headache for programmers, because for some reason, people think it's fun to stress things out inanimate or not.

Come in the next customer who saw everything. Believe it or not, she wanted to pull THE EXACT SAME STUNT the first woman did! As I was checking her items she pulled off a shirt and said: “This one has a loose thread, can I get a 50% discount on it?”. I glared at her for exactly 5 seconds, dead in her eyes before she pulled her shirt away saying: “Never mind, continue” with a smug grin on her face. If there is any justice left in this world, I hope to live a day to see these retail businesses going bankrupt and obsolete. with the CEOs squirming in agony losing all their millions and instead gaining debts over debts.
I'm in a wheelchair. At work the cube halls were too small and I had to enter someone else's cube to get into mine. The only women's wheelchair bathroom was on the south side and I was forced to sit in the center of the building. I've been moved to permanent telecommute after it became a big hassle to get my behind-the-turnstyle parking access. That boss got moved after every one of us pointed out he only hired people who also went to his university. He was not ready for the entire team to call out his behavior. New boss is all behind my full time telecommute being permanent.
The sad thing is, the most wheelchair friendly place I have ever been was a casino. Ramps and space everywhere, wheelchair stalls in every bathroom.
On the body armored bags: MANY SCHOOLS IN AMERICA WILL NOT LET STUDENTS CARRY THEIR BAGS AT ALL AND DON'T TELL THE PARENTS THIS
I went to three schools that had lockers that were always placed horribly, and two of them told us we could not carry bags, jackets, sweaters, purses, or extra books of any kind, they insisted we use our locker every passing period but most of us couldn't get to the locker in the 5 minutes they gave us due to the lay out of the school. One of these schools didn't have heating and I have lived in Michigan my whole life, where it is cold most of the year. The body armor bags will do nothing to save your children if the attacker aims above the back and if your kid goes to one of these inconsiderate schools they are a waste of money, you would be better off sending them in an actual body armor vest
at this point its probably more convenient to just carry the entire locker lol /j
i'm so grateful my school lets us carry backpacks and have optional lockers😭🙏🏽 but even w/ body armor it wouldn't do anything, as you said
My high school has this, when the only middle school that is meant to go into it doesn't, and we can't even bring bags at all to some classes because the teachers get to decide whether or not to add on random ass rules.
What!? As a Balkaner I am genuinely shocked. WHat kind of savages made those rules!?

So funny story about the side walk, when I was a kid, our street didnt have sidewalks, so my dad decided to talk our neighbors into it and pitched in to get a sidewalk put in front of our houses, they got permits and everything. But because of that, we were in sole possession of the sidewalks and it wasn't city property. We have since moved so Im not sure if new owners now own it or if the city now owns it.
Recently we had a bunch of secular trees cut down. The not so funny part is that activists got angry at the company who did it (a public upkeep company that manages the city's integrity) and said they shouldn't be ever again in charge of trees. Come to find out from the local news that the trees were risk C or D of falling which is why not all the trees were cut in the first place but also why some had to be cut fairly quickly. Because we love trees on roads, yes so nice and cozy! But we don't love trees falling on passerbys, cyclists, cars, buses etc. In fact they said recently the trees are going to be replaced by new trees. I absolutely hated the "I was _xyz_ years old" piece of paper activists left over a genuine issue that could've resulted in plenty of injuries. Some times the excuses people give are stupid or shitty or made up. But I can hardly believe a tree falling can be an excuse or made up but a serious issue.
I feel like the company would benefit if they put thier own sign up explaining why a tree was cut down. Even with the dumbasses
i hate them cutting all the trees but they could've kept the other trees that were less risk of falling on someone
@@3_or_more_characters. they did. My mom was wondering why they cut only a few and not all and it was specifically as those were deemed at high risk of falling. The road still looks very full of trees in my opinion. With some bald spots of course but since they didn't cut them all entirely it's still nicely shaded.
10:00 So it looks like they miscalculated the 10% They calculated it as a 0.1% raise. If this wasn’t intentional, they need to go back to highschool math or it’s they did this intentionally.
Basically they put the formula with 0.10/100 (0.1%) instead of the correct 10/100 (10%)
I noticed the same thing, so I did some math, and it turns out that if they were to actually give OP a 10% raise, it would be approximately $28.99/hr.
@@MTF_Unit_Alpha-1 Yep…

9:48 instead of taking the pay rate percentage and converting it to decimal (1+10/100), they converted it to decimal and then converted it to decimal again (1+(10/100)/100), which means that they instead got an increase of 1%, which isn't 10%. this is probably illegal
They gave a payrise of 10%%
Pay raise of 0.1%. DAFUQ
9:59 That's not how you calculate a 10% increase. *That* is a 0.1% increase, which is basically nothing. Instead, multiply the current pay (26.35) by 1.1, or 110% percent. This gives you 26.35(1.1)=28.985 or 28.98/hour (28.99 if they're nice but based on this, I doubt they would be).

Also delivery people don't actually answer to the customer sadly. They answer to their deranged managers usually
Yeah, my dad did that job for a while. 8 hours in the Texas heat, no AC in the vehicle, maybe a fan if you're lucky (but not in most). Literally seconds to make deliveries at points because they're given too many packages and terrible routes. They leave a note and run because standing even a minute or two to wait for you to come to the door could get them written up or lose their job.
People shouldn't be blaming the delivery guy, they should be blaming the company that doesn't given him the time to do his job properly.
@@hmnhntr yeah, agreed, it's awful work.
10:54 Also, I'd really appreciate it if they would stop censoring the prices of the burgers from their menus. This is fast food, not some upscale restaurant where the price is so high I don't even want to look at it. Knowing the price helps the line move faster, which is sort of the entire point of your business model.

Okay Robin, about the spiders: if you find a spider in your house, that spider will most likely be too adapted to living indoors to be released back outside. If it's not a harmful spider (like the daddy long legs in the post), what you do is trap them in a cup, and then release them into a corner of your home that you won't mind them being. They will take care of the annoying bugs for you
Yeah too many people release spiders outside but the ones you’re releasing have usually adapted and will pretty much die out in the wild
I dont want spiders in any part of my home

i was so curious, yet my arachnophobia stopped me from investigating onward. you are a lifesaver.
@@willowpup360 in case you're curious, the reason they can't bite is because they don't actually have fangs durable enough to pierce human skin
they also don't have venom
they eat tiny bugs like gnats and mites
Their only defense if they are spotted by a predators is being able to drop their legs or leg segments if the predator grabs them. They can't even regrow them.
@reaganeidemiller7132 in fact, they dont even have fangs. They have pincer-like mouthpieces more similar to that of a scorpion. Theyre just funky lil guys :]

Last Saturday I went to the beach and on my way home I decided to sit and wait under the bus stop thingy as two sketchy looking foreign guys came near me. This proved to be a very stupid idea. A spider that was light brown/golden came crawling on my tanning bed as it was resting against the plastic structure. I don't know what spider it was as googling it made me feel sick and scared and I didn't find any spider that matched. It wasn't super big like maybe half an inch or so if not smaller. Still pretty big for a European like me. And what was even worse is that the bus was about to arrive. It was some regional bus line that goes from my big city (Genova Italy) to a smaller town outside the city. So if I missed the bus because of this mofo, I would've had to wait 30 extra minutes. So I was debating between getting on the bus with this little fella on my chair hoping he doesn't decide to crawl over my hand and arm 🤮. Or make sure he leaves my chair. I tried the latter but this guy kept making spider webs to keep himself tied to my chair. Eventually before the bus came I was able to get him off of there, back on the structure and pulled the chair so hard to make sure any remaining web was destroyed so he couldn't be attached to my chair in any way. I had tried this before and this thing detached from the wall and was floating next to my chair and back on it. Sure my tanning bed is green but it's no plant you can leave.

My mom is guilty of releasing her dogs on a plane. I've tried to tell her to stop because of how nasty it is, but she's too stubborn. Sorry y'all
22:33 As someone who always gets the sour cream and chives baked potato from Wendy's, I can tell you that the sour cream comes in separate packets on the side. I've also had a few times recently where I got no chives on it, though it's not as big of a deal for me, as I just load the thing up with cheese and butter. I definitely understand the disappointment others would feel, though, especially if they're at the restaurant and can't go home to put other toppings on it.
Are we not gonna talk about the infector from dead space in the second post?
Nah, it's one of those little things that jump on Isaac's back.
Yeah, any subscription service for shit that doesn't need one needs to die out. For example, xbox. It started on the Xbox One where you needed a subscription just to play multiplayer on most games and there are some games that you pay for that you can't even play one bit because the game is nothing but multiplayer.

I looked up what age oak trees can get, because some trees legitimately don't live that long (eg apple trees), so perhaps this tree had to be felled for safety reasons towards the end of its life cycle. But no, oak trees can get anywhere between 600-1,000 years old, so this one would have had plenty of time left most likely :'(
The dog at the beginning had the biggest "and I'll do it again!" face I've ever seen
Baked potatos were one of the original primary items on the Wendy's menu. They used to have a whole baked potato bar. It used to be, arguably, the best thing they offered.
Netflix really popularized the subscription model. That’s where it took off.

To keep a daddy longlegs spider safe, just move him to a different part of the house preferably or outside. They eat flies and other spiders, here in New Zealand they are most known to eat white tail spiders and black widow spiders.

9:00 on most unfuriating reddit posts im usually not commenting on for various reasons but at someone who is past the age of 25 and for many complicated reasons still learning how to be an independent person this infurriates me so much i just have to say something because it basically becomes personal.
im putting in so much efford to learn things my mom should have taught me as a teenager and you cant look up anywhere because society just assumes once your an adult you know everything there is and people like her are out there, not even rinsing out with plain whater while im learning cleaning utensils and that women probably is also considerably older then me as well.
its insane how someone can be old enough to have a child thats probably either teenager or an adult them self and she still cant look after her self, if it was a sudden change i have no idea what would trigger that but im even more dumbfoundled if it has always been that way.
how can someone get up to 40 years old or maybe older and not know how to clean up after them selfs and then even specifically just the cups.
its one thing if she never made food her self and doesnt know how to clean it up but the focus on the cups means she probably does everything else just fine but the cups which should be one of the most easy things there is for some reason arent getting done.
im going to stop before i rant and angry yell even more but i hope it comes across how upset this makes me. a person who has a child unless they are elderly or have some sort of medical condition rendering them unable to do it should not have there own child look after them, more specifically it shouldnt be necessary.

Jack, I completely agree with you about front license plates. It is a state-to-state thing, but I am still surprised by cars that don't have a front license plate
