    A cyst in your ball sack.

    It gives you just a bit of a numb hurt that goes on all day long, and gives you all kinds of other bad thoughts and feelings on top, and all you can do is wait until it decides to go away after some weeks or months.

      Hey Bones, this is Jackby, it’s about 2 AM on Friday and I was just calling to chat. I guess you’re asleep. Guess that makes sense. It’s 2 AM. I was just talking with the others about something I couldn’t remember the name of and thought you might know, what’s that thing that’s really annoying? You always used to talk about it. Yeah, yeah, I’m leaving them a voice mail! They didn’t answer. I think they’re asleep. Crazy stuff. Sorry about that. Anyways, what was I saying? HA! You can’t hear me, I’ve got to figure it out on my own… Hmmm… OH! Annoying stuff! You used to be annoyed by something. I was trying to remember but I couldn’t do I called you. Anyways, call me back. Thanks! Bye!

      No matter how many times I tell my father that I will not listen his voicemails he still does it. Hi crackhappy. This is your dad. It’s ummm let’s see. Friday the 20th at about… 10:15 am. I’m here at the hardware store and I there is this tool I was looking at that I wondered you could help me get a cheaper price on. This tool is just like my dad used to use in 1954, with my uncle hap. Hap was a sailor in the merchant Marines in world war I, and the name of his boat was… Hold on a second I’ll get it. Oh right, it was the Jenny Marie. this is but a small sample of the voicemails he leaves

        Do you ever listen to the end to see if he tied an onion to his belt? It would be hilarious if he was doing a bit from The Simpsons

        When he dies you’re gonna miss that shit. I’d reccomend saving a couple of those voicemails.

          That’s a good point. I have a few videos I’ve taken of us sitting and chatting by the pool in Bali, camping in the Sierra Nevada, christmas in St. Croix, and thanksgiving at my grandma’s house, but I think you’re right, I should save some of that super mundane stuff too.

      Where I live gas powered ones are banned but if you say anything you’re racist so I keep my mouth shut.

      But fuck do I hate them, without warning they just crank them up and I have to go all around closing all the doors/windows I have open; the gas smell still comes inside so then I’ve got to run an air purifier for like six hours.

      I cycled past some communal workers blowing leafs with an electric leafblower and holy shit the difference to a gas powered one is monumental. It‘s so incredibly quiet it didn‘t bother me at all.

    Everyone already posted what I initially though so: Toxic positivity, the whole “no criticism allowed, only good thoughts” crowd. I’m not going to directly point fingers, but some instances on Lemmy have a severe case of this.

      That’s funny, I would put that in like 5th place, and was going to say constant complaining. We had to go back to the office (hybrid if you want but at least 3 days a week they said) I expected some degree of complaints but the 2 men who sit next to me complain incessantly all day. All day.
