Welcome to Thursday.

It’s of course time for another Complaints Thread, so whether someone is defacing your finest globe, Zoidberg is scuttling in anger somewhere, or you’re too busy being attacked by a vicious magnetic can opener, this is the thread for you.

Come on in and have a chat – what’s gone wrong this week?

  1. No complaints, but Tintin Fry confuses me and scares me.

  2. Nothing at work has worked this week, it has been exhausting and everyone involved is confused.

  3. 6am. The place opposite has received a delivery of what sounds like 10,000 empty glass bottles and a few hundred snare drums by air drop.

  4. I broke Dry January last night with one bottle of ale – I slept abysmally. I need someone to blame other than myself. Who shall I go for?

  5. Got a meeting with a parent to tell them their child isn’t putting the effort in, Which will be fun..

  6. Just annoyed I haven’t made near as much progress as I planned to this month—can’t concentrate no matter how hard I try.

  7. My newbie keeps whistling. It’s going right through me and exacerbating my tinnitus. I’ve politely asked they stop, but it’s not working.

  8. Sleep has been absolute dogshit for a fortnight now.

    Got my third bloody puncture in a month after a puncture free year so I’m up earlier to walk to work.

    Today I’ve got to present a piece of work I produced to the big service director level meeting. I’m relatively lowly and my direct manager won’t be there and I just know I’m going to give up two hours of my day to attend this meeting to present and have my work ripped to shreds in five minutes.

  9. The organisation I work at seem to love AI. I was asked to speak about it as part of a presentation this morning, I put together my slides about how wasteful it is, how hurtful it is for artists, how it’s creating laziness, the environmental impacts. I have been asked to either go back to a presentation I did last year before I’d researched the bad elements of it or to opt out all together. Feeling like I’ve been silenced and to be honest it’s worrying how protective they are of the bots. (I hate speaking in front of people, so being excused is a tiny win, but currently feels it’s at quite a cost.)

  10. Youngest is teething. Once it’s done, it’s done. But I miss sleep.

    Also some bastard stole my blue bin Tuesday. Got it back earlier as they left it outside my house this morning.

  11. I’m abroad and it’s about 1 degree too warm (it’s 25) in the afternoon. 😔

  12. My work colleague this week said she doesn’t like Red Dwarf because it’s silly.

    It’s supposed to be silly! 🤦🏻‍♀️

  13. I had gloves that worked with my old phone screen but don’t work on my newer phone which is a very minor annoyance.

    Also running is really boring. I do it because I need to do cardio instead of just weights and I do feel good afterwards and it’s nice tracking how I’m improving but it’s still so goddamn boring. Podcasts can only do so much.

  15. Had an unexplained sick and dizzy spell yesterday so I couldn’t go for a wild swim after my craft class. (I love how first world, middle class, newly retired my complaint is😅)

  16. I’ve been ill with this cough and cold going around and its getting pretty frustrating now doesnt seem like its getting better either so im just exhausted and frustrated

  17. The incredibly hard to find item I bought from Japan on the most expensive shipping available is on Day 7 of being stuck on “Dispatch from outward office of exchange” and I’m starting to get antsy that it’s never going to move from there 🙁

    I can’t understand how cheapo items from AliExpress get better shipping updates than the Japan Post service that I dropped fifty quid on shipping for D:
