My husband stole my pillow. I climbed into bed, shifted my pillow into position, and was promptly treated to protestations of "Hey, I was using that!"

Dude, use one of your FOUR pillows to support your weak shoulder; you don't get to appropriate mine.

I have something on my pillow that keeps dh from stealing it, and it was something he gave me for Mother's Day.  A pillowcase with Captain Jack Sparrow on it. :):)

"At least 300 or more..."

Which is it? At least 300? Or 300 or more? This happens all too often from professional news reporters. Drives me up the wall!

There was a radio ad that ran for a while and the narrator said "if you need to lose up to 30 pounds or more then....."  So, basically, if you need to lose weight.

When baristas put the lid on coffee cups so the mouth opening lines up with or is really near the seam on the cup. Causes leakage and awkward coffee stains in the chest area. Not the greatest thing to start the day with.

OK I skipped to the end to be sure I wasn't resurrecting an ancient thread, but THIS, so very very much!  I stop every time to twist the lid around the right way so the coffee doesn't leak out.  Not sure why this isn't in the Barista training manual.

I am 7 months pregnant, and I currently have 5 pillows on my side of the bed.  Each has a stated use.  DH kept borrowing one of the ones that goes under my head while he was working or reading in bed.  I finally gave up and found him another pillow for his side.  It's bad enough that he borrows it, but then I fall half asleep, and have to wake up to get it back where it belongs when he's done with it.

People who anticipate the green light so start rolling forward...and forward...and forward...until they're well into the intersection before the light every turns green.
The problem with choosing the lesser of two evils is that you're still choosing evil.

When people put things up on facebook that are inflammatory and completely untrue.  Right now, someone shared a status that is bascially "This group sang this politically charged song, radio stations are banning it and it was never released to the public."  I know the song, I have a cd with the song on it around here somewhere, and Spotify lists it on at least two other albums.    Snopes also notes that the song was never released as a single, which is generally needed for radio stations to put it into rotation.  Unfortunately, with the amount of this type of stuff that comes from that particular person, I doubt that putting up Snopes linkes would do any good.

Before anyone says it, yes, I am going to hide this person's feed  :)

Why does Frontline and other flea preventatives I've seen only come in sets of 3?  I get that the package says "three month supply"-if you have a single cat.  I have a duo, so I have to buy two packages for the three month supply  >:(.

I've gotten sets of 12 from an online retailer, 1800PetMeds[dot]com.  Pretty good prices, too.

My 'up the wall' moment has been brought on by the new Star Trek movie.  It's TREK, people, T-r-E-k. Not 'Star Track'.  Rhymes with 'heck', not 'hack'!!!!!!
