I made cookies. The recipe said it yielded 40 cookies. I got 68 rather large cookies! I will have to sacrifice and eat them, I guess.  | | The following 4 users would like to thank 3Wishes for this useful post: | |

Our facilities manager at work writes stern notices and warnings in a "Comic Sans" font thus detracting from their authoritative tone.

Everybody is switching in or out of daylight savings time at different dates, and so I have to keep looking at the "World Clock" app on my phone to figure out if it's an appropriate time to call my family members and loved ones in Europe and South America!  | | This user would like to thank BokerTov for this useful post: | |

I ordered my co-worker's McDonald's wrong, so now I have to blame the employees.

I got given a KitKat to go with my coffee, but I'd have preferred a Penguin.

I hate getting out of bed to switch the lights off at night.
I replaced my bulbs with ones I can control via my smartphone.
Now I don't have to get out of bed any more.

I have a problem finding a good enough reason to get out of bed in the mornings. Well, eventually I do get out of bed, only because there`s no-one to bring me my coffee! I find this a very good reason to get out of bed.
If I make the bed, then I won`t be likely to return to it.
If I wash my face and brush my teeth, and my hair, and get dressed, then it`s almost guaranteed I`ll not return to bed.
But once I`ve drunk my coffee, I have a problem deciding whether or not to turn on my computer, or do something else.
My life is SO difficult, with all this control I have to exert daily.
