Things that suck

If it says 450g on the package, and it’s only 377g, then it is the producer, not the store ripping people off.

Unless the package have been opened by the store…

This is not good.

I’ve been to a couple of shops, and found evidence of tampering with foodstuffs. Unfortunately it was discovered well after the fact that I used the product.

I’ve learnt now, and will doublecheck any sealed container(s) prior to purchase, and make it somebody else’s problem, as I’ve got better things to do with my time than trying to follow up with the store/producer etc…

Once bitten, twice shy.

We can expect this sort of thing to escalate due to high food prices and a global economy that’s going down the dunny.

No doubt he’ll say “but this include the packaging…”

Just be prepared to chase this all over the place if it comes down to that.

It is possible for pressure-treated lumber to rot. Not all 4x4 posts are cut to the same dimensions. Now I have to rip out the concrete and a pour a new post hole.

Make sure to use non-shrinking concrete this time.
:wink:

Had the concrete shrunk, the slightly larger 4x4 would have fit. On the positive side, I was given a tip about drainage for fence posts. If you put rocks right under where the post is, any water that migrates through the wood will have an escape route.

I wish I had a dollar for every different way I have been told to sink pressure treated 4x4s.

My younger brother is on life support and we’re waiting for his youngest kid to get here from 7 hours away to say goodbye.

Meetings suddenly scheduled out of the blue on the first day of a new quarter rarely bring good news. I guess the bright spot is it wasn’t the first day of a new fiscal year. Those never bring good news.

Not Always Right isn’t updating the Bronies section of their site any more. Links to it have been removed from their navigational menus. If you don’t have it bookmarked, you won’t be able to find it. The link shows the very last item posted to it.

How come I only find about this brony thing now? :cry:

New BELA bill has been passed.

Apparently every Tom, Dick and Harry from our neighbouring countries will now be able to send their children to our schools without any proof of residence or identification.

Plus other Very Bad Things.

Still waiting to hear what is going to happen regarding homeschooling.

WELP i ended up having a tooth pulled in an emergency procedure.

Last Thursday, my tooth started hurting, and I figured I could go in to the dentist in a week from now.

Yeah, NO. Tooth was badly infected and was making me physically sick. that is the most pain I have ever been in.

the only time I have ever really wanted pain drugs was after I had my wisdom teeth removed. My knee surgery didn’t even come close.
