Work is cutting back my hours. So now I have to find another job.
"Politician" is the occupational equivalent of "Florida".

The bald spot on the back of my head has gotten to the point where I need to do something about it. Either shave my head preemptively, start growing a ponytail and be one of those guys, or just keep my hair short like it is now and say the hell with it.

One of the earpieces in my headset, which had been on the fritz for a while but tended to be at least temporarily fixable, finally gave up the ghost.

Oh well, I can't complain too much; I got this pair under warranty from my last set, which became unusable shortly before the warranty expired.

It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

I love it when a "bug fixes" update for an app completely fucking breaks it.  How does this even happen, does anyone do testing anymore?

That's code for ya.  Fix one thing, and a dozen new, broken edge cases crop up.
Bug fixes for games even more so probably because there's more code hence more things that can bork.

Someone, I think my boss, let it out that my birthday is coming up. And now everyone is being all weird, asking how old I'll be and what day exactly and what I'll be doing to celebrate.

My phone keeps derping out, bout once a month, and setting my time ahead by four hours.  I think somebody's screwing with Virgin's time servers or something.  Not a major problem, but still, kinda irritating when my phone claims its 7 in the evening and I know its only 3.

Having to fix someone's laptop that they clearly haven't used in almost a year.

They broke the USB drive used to input the bitlocker PIN, an I ended up having to input the recovery key about a dozen times as hundreds of windows updates started installing and demanding restarts.

People with non-TPM laptops need to be culled for the good of the population.

Arsenal of Democracy crashes if you try and open the trade menu when there's no other countries left to trade with.

This means I can't set up supply convoys to the two remaining island provinces the last remaining enemy bequeathed me when I annexed them, in turn meaning I can't garrison them to crush their dissent...

I got my dates and times for my finals mixed up.  My calculus final is tomorrow.  At 8 in the fucking morning.  Good news, its not my chemistry final, which is on Monday at 1 in the afternoon.  This is good because I can kick calculus' ass with my fucking eyes closed, and I need prep time for chemistry that I realize I now have.

That quote from Tyler the Creator on cyber bullying.  It's not funny, it's not insightful, and there's always some twat ready to quote it when ever the topic is brought up.

Gonna take a guess and say it's probably this one:
