Woke up to a cold home, for some reason the pilot light on the boiler shut off. i Just changed the thermocouple three days ago, no idea why it turned off. Has been staying light all day now. Had a new cheap bench grinder, tried to true up the grinding wheels. After one hour of trying i got so mad i actually lost my temper and threw it on the concrete floor. Had some home made pizza in the freezer, through it in the oven, somehow didn't hear the timer, burnt the pizza. Working on my shop heating, had to solder in some pipe. After filling the system with water, one solder connection sprung a bad leak. Draining the system, re-soldering it, still leaking. Trying to take my mind of things, play some video games, kept loosing even against low level enemy. Noticed half my houseplants are dying, no idea why, bummed out about that. Tried to make some home made pancakes to cheer my self up. Couldn't get the pan temperature right, burnt outside, still raw on the inside. And with the persistent loneliness, i have no one to share this with except you fags on voat.
Last time i went to the local church, all i saw was single mom's, middle aged Karens, and old volk. Since then the church changed it's name and has become woke, gay flag flying infront of it.
The "local church". the local church where i live could be one of like 20 in a 2 square mile radius. Old volk have daughters and grand daughters, btw. But it sounds like you arent from the bible belt. Here in the Heartland, there are no gays allowed.
Lastly, soldering is so 1995. Shark bite that bad boy.
Hi Ragnar. Yeah, bro, I'm ancient. It happens, it happens. That's what it's all about. Just got up. Had my handful of cashews and am gunna mow the back lawn. Went to the beach yesterday. Probably will go today except we ran into a nutter yesterday and it's put the missus off a bit. No big deal he was harmless just a nuisance. I got to thinking, Ragnar, it's not lions and tigers who f..k our lives up it's people.

People only fuck your life because you are an antisocial vegan old bag of bones. If you are a vegan (mental disease) for ethical reasons, how can you fathom eating cashews??
As usual, Ragnar, you are correct. Cashews are apparently not sentient. I hope you've told your missus about your surprise christmas guests? We are looking forward to it. Christmas Day with a nice little American family.
[ - ] Ragnar 1 point 2.4 yearsNov 30, 2022 18:25:35 ago (+1/-0)
They are not sentient but have you looked into how they are harvested? If you are an ethical vegan, how do you justify mistreating humans and child slavery just so you can get your tiny pouches of cashews flown from miles away? Yet another hypocritical vegan, no surprise to anyone because veganism is a mental illness.
i call them 'Snowball days' only in my case it starts off with something tiny and insignificant, then someone less insignificant attaches itself to it, then something else again, until suddenly its 7pm and youre hanging naked off a third floor balcony trying to get away from the greys trying to zap you with their ray guns
I change my thermonuclear daily so I don't have these kinds of problems.
But seriously sorry you had a shit day. Nice thing about a day that bad is tomorrow is usually better. Maybe we'll get some good White people news or something?
Edit: lol at every other comment fixating on the plants
Meh. Don't worry about it. We all have an "off" day. I think of it in tolerances. When your day goes perfectly, I think of it as the is completely within tolerance, that is it's completely within specs, where one hopes it's always it's +/-0. But that's not realistic, and most days are going to be off spec. You just had a day was WAY out of spec. These things happen. Just look forward to tomorrow and later days when your tolerance will be closer to 0.
yep it always starts with the smallest details and can go in crescendo till at the end of the day you feel like you just have the shittiest day of your life.
sometimes it even happens when you try to do some good for someone. my advice tough it up because as others have pointed out it gets better until your next shitty day.
you are not alone it happens to all of us. view it as a test. your response will tell how mature you are as a human being
i know what you mean but when i get that angry i dont feel empowered but rather bad that i acted in this silly way.
i have done stuff like that out of anger that i had came to regret later on. sometimes its just comes out of nowhere as reaction of something that caused you frustration and/or irritation but yeah after awhile the accusations for your hot temper will haunt you for quite awhile.
its better to have self control than have a unseemly display like that
I am generally pretty stoic. No one has ever seen me loose control like that, it's far to rare i let it happen. This now cost me $150. not a bad learning price to not cheap out on equipment for my machine shop.

I have been in work environments/cultures where losing your temper is an art form. It’s kind of fun if you get good at it. I don’t know how to explain it, it’s going to happen but you can be aware of enough of it to…I don’t know. If you do it right it is a cathartic experience instead of an escalating process.
City water doesn't let the plants thrive. It has chlorine and other shit chemicals in it. Try to collect rainwater if possible and soil contents are extremely important.
I recommend taking a couple shots of some good whiskey washed down with one or two of your favorite beers. It won't change anything, except your mood , but sometimes that's all one can hope for
Tomorrow is a new day , hope it goes better than today mate.
Woke up to a cold home Noticed half my houseplants are dying, no idea why, bummed out about that.
Gee, it sure is a mystery. Also, if you're European, stop being a fag. I had to leave the heat off due to some issues with my animals, and slept through freezing temperatures without issue or discomfort.

It was 13C instead of my usual 17C. The plants should be fine in even colder temperatures. Most of my plants i have double, and one of each is dying, while the other is fine.
I'm a little offended that you think i some sort of faggot that gets offended that easily. It's not really that it was a little cold that bugs me, it's that now i cannot trust my boiler system. When it reaches -40 outside, i kind of depend on that to keep going.

When you have a day like that, always remember it could get worse. It's just a statistical quirk that happens occasionally, don't let it bother you too much. If it makes you feel better, you're failing at things I'm not even capable of starting to fail
My week has basically been completely fucked with a bad cold/flu. So I can feel ya in a very recent manner.
My best thing to do when bad days like this happen is to just call it for the day. Don't try anything difficult, don't focus/stew on it, and just chill out for the rest of the day and play with the dogs or something.
Then make plans the next day to handle each issue in turn, one by one, until they are all fixed. Many times I find that there's stuff I've overlooked as the day got worse and worse that lead me to failure after failure. Taking a day off to cool off and not worry about it lets me come back at it with a fresh mind the next day.

You said "loosing" instead of "losing". You even failed at starting this thread! Talk about a serious case of the Mondays. Good news is it's almost Tuesday.
They don't seem to ship to Canada. Amazon is out of stock, and local stores don't have any. Going to look a little harder tomorrow and see what i can find.

You will appreciate your next meal more....
