Just thought I'd say that being happily married isn't really a valid basis for judging the success of one's life. It's the sum contents of one's character rather than the contents of the ring finger. And if you are letting another person make you feel like that, you are giving them too much power. - Johnny Worthington

Welcome to my world, though most times it's like, wow, I made the right decision. Just sayin' - anna

:) Y'all are right, of course. He was someone I dated at a very VERY low point in my life and he made me feel even lower than that. I think it's the fact that he was such a cockface and is now smelling like roses that gets my goat more than anything else. It does crack me up though that his wife's name is also Amanda... - Amanda H.

Seriously horrific. My brother couldn't understand why the car still smelled after he'd thoroughly cleaned it for me. I drove home, undid the seatbelt, felt a little dampness on my sweater, and looked down to see gobs of puke that had been stuck to the seatbelt and were now all over the front of me. ARGH. - Amanda H.

What L4S said. Twice. - Eric @ CS Techcast

Was your thanksgiving really that bad? - J. Abdul-Qahhar

Jeeezus - sofarsoshawn

No. It was actually great. Oh, except for the huge tiff I had with KMart staff over their incompetence with a Sony BluRay player. But that's a whole tumblr entry in and of itself. - Amanda H.

Thanks for the graphic!!! - Jeff P. Henderson

Competence and KMart are terms that do not go together. When did KMart start carrying Blu-ray? - Eric @ CS Techcast

When they decided to be inconceivable douchebags and have a sale on them on Thanksgiving Day and put a bunch of 16yr olds in charge of their electronics section. The kind that waste your time by saying "We have one left, wait here and we will bring it to you" and then after you wait for 30 minutes, they bring it out and hand it to someone who ISN'T YOU. It's the only time I've ever lost my shit in a store. - Amanda H.

Oooohhhhh, FAIL! - Eric @ CS Techcast

Even worse...management refused to deal with me face-to-face when I asked to speak with a manager about getting a rain check. They kept sending the teenagers back to deal with me. Needless to say, a nasty e-mail to their corporate customer service was fired off later that day, detailing how their incompetence AND inability to deal with their own mistake cost them a $2000+ tv and home theater purchase I had also been preparing to make. Told them "have fun staying afloat in this economy with people like that scaring off your customers." - Amanda H.

But really? The puke in the seatbelt was still SO MUCH WORSE. - Amanda H.

Um, yeah. No argument here. - Eric @ CS Techcast

I have a worse puke story. But it's going in my book - it's made THE LIST! On a lighter note - does the car now smell better? And how much will your brother have to grovel even more now? - WorldofHiglet

No, the car still has that "sweet" smell of puke to it. I think it just needs a few days of direct sunlight and windows down to bake it out. And a bit of Febreze of course. He's going to have to grovel a WHOLE lot. Plus he will be buying me Dark Knight on Blu-Ray as a peace offering. :) - Amanda H.
