I take it you’ve just had a poor experience?
Are we still talking about public toilets or are you describing my life in general now?
Now you put it like that, I feel a little uncomfortable.

When you look for a recipe online, you find it and ....
It takes you another 30-40 seconds to find the fucking recipe because apparently now it's the done thing to write essay after essay at the top of it explaining how you found it, what variations you can do to it, what uncle bob once did at xmas with it.
Seriously, I just want the god damned recipe.

@majorrage bro there's usually a button at the top "jump to recipe"...

Blame Google SEO's for that. The more words you write, the higher you rank in searches.

You know what I hate?
When you take a piss in a grubby public toilet urinal.
And you're contemplating whether to wash your hands or just get out of there.
You choose the right thing and hit the soap dispenser.
And nothing comes out. Fucking empty.
Now your hands are infinitely more filthy for having touched that dirty fucking dispenser than they were before having just handled your pristine weapon.
And no amount of water is getting that feeling off, that knowledge that 100 other unwashed knob-hands have pressed on that dispenser looking for cleanliness and being declined.
Fucking disgusting
Always have hand san in the car, better half has some in her purse bag thingy

I don't bother after a number one. I know my gentleman's region is cleaner than a dirty public toilet.
The design of them also shits me to tears - having to touch taps, dispensers and even doors on the way out. We're not animals, this can all be done contact free.

Or when you finally get to said lunch, which was a salad (GFY's), one of those ones where you get a couple of choices, and you open it to realise that instead of putting your 2 choices next to each other like ever other sane muthafucka in the world would do, the pimply little git decided to be a moron or a cnt and stick one on top of the other.

And then finding good acroynyms like TLDR which would be more useful as something else, like

We all love a workplace hack to speed things up. But what happens when shortcuts become difficult to work out. Here’s a breakdown of some workplace acronyms.

TLDR = Too Lagered, Didn't Root.Misuse of the word "acronym".
Edit: and yeah, I know - everybody fucking does it. That article did it. They started off well... defined it correctly, and then just ignored the definition. Fluffybunnies.

Just got off our morning meeting. I get really bored with the staleness of it, so always throw in some random personal anecdote to try and break the monotony.
So this morning - "Morning folks, great day here ... bit chilly, but turned on the radio this morning and Smells by Teen Spirit was playing, so I think it's gonna be a great day.
We've got a couple of new grads on our wider team. Here is the next part of the convo
Grad 1: "I've not heard of that, whose that by"
Me: "Nirvana, classic tune"
Grad 2: "Who's Nirvana"They can fuck off.
