the trivial complaints thread

[Quinc]

finally got around to finishing up my wifes zxi1100 (that is what she wanted) So I bought one with issues and spent the last year doing fiberglass repairs, redid all the electrical with new connectors etc, new impeller, ride plate, worx sponsons, dry pipe mod, shaved head etc etc... Get the engine in the hull test electrics and make sure eveything is good bolt everything up, chase all the threads, new thread sealer, loctite, 1211 on all the gaskets.. Go to start her up and griiinnnnnnndddddddd. Damn starter is not engaging and making an awful sound.. doughnut me I am tired of looking at this damn couch let alone fixing it..

Demolished my toe pulling a 5# slab of steak out of the freezer. First world problems.

one of my tile installers dropped a 24" x 24" piece of Blue Stone that was about 2" thick on his toes. He was wearing Tennis Shoes............... They said you could see the bones in his toes.

Washing machine poop the bed. It's one of those fancy schmancy front loaders that the ex absolutely HAD to have. I tear it down to repair myself. The part that needs replacing is $501.61. You read that correctly. Five hundred bucks for one part. Thanks to the beauty of Facebook Marketplace I'll be picking up a washer dryer set (top loader washer FTW) that's 2 years old for $300.00 tomorrow. Anyone need any scrap metal?

Yup, That why you stick with the Analog Washer and Dryers...........

Between the mold and parts, top loaders are the only way to go... So far I have replaced 2 belts, one pulley and big arse rubber seal in my front loader..

Keep the stainless drum... add legs to it and it is the best fire pit type thing, ever!

Tried another starter and same issue.. Pulled off the flywheel and all of the weights had come out of the bendix... Replaced the bendix and she fired right up. On the positive I can strip down this engine and put it back together while inside the hull in less than an hour now..

Went back to my 'old' gym this morning after a two year absence when my new gym raised their rates thru the roof. I see this very plump woman who used to work out there back when I was a regular, with the same trainer she had back then. She was doing the SAME DAMN ROUTINE as two years ago. Trainer sits on a bench playing on his phone, while she does weighted lunges, they move to another part of the gym and the trainer is back on his phone and she is slamming a ball against the ground for a while. Move to another part of the gym and the trainer is back on his phone while she messes with the battle ropes...then onto the treadmill. Same Bat Time Same Bat Channel. Lather Rinse Repeat. Why does she pay this moron?

Is that a metric hashtag or standard?

Well my complaint is newer generations re-branding something to suit their petty social needs and then getting annoyed when it gets used for a meaning established decades before their asses were even born.

# = 16 ounces or a Standard Pound
£ = British Pound or Metric

Plan to go the lake. Your buddy was going to meet you. He has a busy schedule. Bails (No complaints, totally understand). You go anyhow. Take the SXR that you have been resurrecting and go ride and have a blast....... Still got some hiccups but it is getting there..... Then hop on your freak which is running perfect... And you ride a few minutes. Get worn slap out riding it. Come back in and you almost feel like you just got done having really bad sex. You know the kind where you get up and think. " Damn, That was not even worth it................." Yeah. That how I felt. Now to decide............ am I going to keep this relationship going or call it off.........

You could always look at it this way: At least you had sex???
