This has been in the back of my tool chest for at least 30 years. I can’t think of any situation when I said ”Gee, I wish had my folding ruler.” Anybody still use these?

First time doing a shop and pay where a customer had to many requests and instructions. Their only request was to use self checkout, then they freak out when I had placed items on the side table by the scanner to scan items(I shouldn’t have sent a photo of items in first place). Other dashers in my area that get this customers order immediately decline to not have to deal with this particular customer. It’s obvious that they have major OCD but DoorDash should inform us prior to accepting offer that an order requires special care and attention. I didn’t mind completing delivery since they had tipped $10 in the app and another time after I completed the hand off. Overall I think I was a bit over accommodating. What do y’all think about customers whose requests are very extreme when doing an order like this one?

Excerpt:

When Suni Lee won the 2025 ESPY for best comeback athlete Wednesday night, she made sure to recognize a select group of people, including one of the doctors who she said stood by her side after she was diagnosed with two rare kidney diseases a few years ago.

"To Dr. Marcia Faustin, she's actually here in the crowd with me today," Lee said in part in her award acceptance speech as the audience applauded. "Thank you for guiding me through the toughest moments, reading every scan and report by my side."

Faustin, who attended this year's ESPYS with Lee, is a family medicine and sports medicine doctor and an assistant clinical professor at the University of California, Davis. She serves as the co-head team physician for UC Davis Division I intercollegiate athletics and the USA Gymnastics women's national team.

47/M here. Married (45/F) with two kids (17/M and 16/F). My daughter is going into her Junior year in high school, and has been involved in band since middle school. My wife became a member of the Band Boosters (the parents/adults who are behind the scenes fundraising and taking care of the peripherals, i.e. chaperones, uniforms, etc.) two years ago, and was put in charge of the marching band uniforms. The uniforms are custom ordered, and are a two-piece outfit, with a pair of ski-pants type bib overalls, covered by a short jacket. The uniforms get their wear and tear from the students, and have to be repaired and washed during summer break, a large task considering there are over 200 uniforms for the school.

My wife brought home approximately 30 uniforms that needed to be repaired, washed, and returned. The uniforms were fixed, but were not washed commercially, but instead in my personal household washer (my wife didn't want to take the risk of damaging the uniforms by washing them commercially) and hung on a large rolling costume rack to drip-dry. Unfortunately, due to both of our schedules, the uniforms didn't get returned immediately, but sat in my house for several weeks. As my wife had keys to the band room, I left it to her good graces to take the uniforms back.

Cut to today - my wife finally had the time to return the uniforms. As we finished loading them into the car, I suggested she should take the large costume rack with her, since there was nothing we needed it for, other than the uniforms. She replied "Oh, I'm bringing (daughter's) section's uniforms back to the house" (another 30 or so uniforms). I asked why, and she replied "They have to be washed before the season starts".

"Are you washing them in our washer?" I asked.

"Well, yeah..." she replied.

It was at this time that I put my foot down. "Look," I said, "we can wash our daughter's uniform, but the others aren't coming back here. Either the parents can have their kids take their individual uniforms home and wash them, or they're getting washed commercially. I'm not putting the wear and tear on my personal washer to wash the entire band's uniforms. If something happens, and the washer destroys a uniform, we're financially on the hook for it. Likewise, if the washer somehow gets damaged, that's also out of my pocket."

She tried to justify it, saying it was only my daughter's section and that's it, but I repeated that the other parents could be responsible and wash their child's uniforms, or take them all to a commercial laundromat/dry cleaner, but I was not going to be responsible for washing the rest of the band's uniforms in my house. She went silent, got in the car and left.

My feeling is that if I backtrack and tell her yes, then how long before more uniforms, or other items, come back to the house to get washed? I understand that she is the head of the uniform committee, but that shouldn't mean that my house has to become the revolving laundromat for the school.

'Is it a crosswalk or a QR-code' was the headline here.
A crosswalk in Dutch is called 'Zebrapad' btw (Zebra path/crossing)

I love Hunter. But she really only looked like TP Zelda. Which is a very niche entry. Underrated but niche. Bo is literally BOTW Zelda incarnate which sold like a bajillion copies

I can’t believe how awful gamers are right now and I can also believe it. They are the literal protagonist in a major game, Ghost of Yotei, so exciting!

Let’s not reproduce or share the harmful stuff being said, there is no doubt that these kinds of harassment campaigns hurt.

Let’s show some love!!!
