I know, right? There's some sick people in this world.

Now if you'll all excuse me for just a second, I have to go buy yet another box of tissues.

I have this horrible feeling that somebody out there is fiercely masturbating to this conversation.
It sure ain't me, the thought of that actually made my eyes water. Of all the pimples I ever had I'm so fucking happy I never had that particular issue.

And here I thought you used a sock.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

Going out for a nice dinner with a pretty girl... And finding out two days later that she's got a boyfriend. Fuckity fuck.

To be clear, I'm not mad at her at all. It wasn't a date, and she had no reason to bring it up or tell me. I'm just mad that she's already got someone and I liked her. Oh well!
Oh, you take the high road, and I'll take the low road...

So in russian, there is such a thing as verb conjuction. Take the word Ходить. If I want to say I walk, the word is Я Ходить. However, the last three letters are ить, and in words like that, you have to change that to a Ю, since Я is behind it. In essence, any word that ends in those last three letters, after Я, has to change to Ю. So we are left with Я ХодЮ

 But theres more, Ю cant be used after the letter X due to spelling rules, so we change it to a y. giving us Я Ходy.

 And theres more, that word is also subject to consonant mutation, dunno why this happens, it just does, so д is changed to ж. Giving us with the final word Я Хожy.

 . Anybody learning Russian has to go through that just to say "I walk". Yeah, thats not messed up at all

That depressing moment when you get down to the depths of your coffee to find a bunch of undissolved sugar, and all you can think is "Noooooooo, the whole coffee could have been so much better"

The worst part is that the first person conjugation is the only one to do the whole "д"->"ж" alteration in the word.

Logic everywhere in this motherfucker.

EDIT: Noticed a small error in yer quote, just thought I'd point out for non-Russian speakers. The "Ю" isn't switched to "y" because of the "X", but because of the letter right before it. In this case, the hard consonants in the form of "д" and "ж".

I'm annoyed with the idiot who suddenly reversed out of a disabled parking space at Wegman's without looking - and reversed straight into me as I was walking back to my Jeep with a loaded cart. I wasn't even close to their fucking car.

Ouch.

I feel the same, generally with chocolate milk.

Still getting those annoying tech support scam phone calls, which means there are people out there still falling for them, thus propagating the annoyance for people like me who don't. GET A BRAIN! MORANS

Fire alarm going off from 3:30-4:30 in the morning. Apparently the fire department can't turn off the alarm, and it took the landlord an hour to get here. So I finally fall back asleep around 5, and then alarm clock goes off at 6. I'm not sure why I bothered going back to bed.

I get a recorded call about once every two weeks, telling me that they have important information regarding my credit card account.  This is interesting, as I do not have a credit card.

Hah, for the last few moths we get calls from the Australian Tax Department. No such thing exists.
