    I've always been spooked by spiders, even if they were common in my area.

    What Annoyed You Today?

    Like one post that's about lizards and snakes, and social media thinks, "You like reptiles right? Here's some videos of spiders." I'm a little arachnophobic, so I don't want to see spiders ever. Furthermore, spiders are not reptiles. Didnt think this needed to be said.

    What Annoyed You Today?

    Singer quit. Had a show in around 2 months, now coming up on 3 weeks and they haven't learned the whole set. I also got blamed by them for not showing up to practice because I had a cold, because they apparently relied on me. They were saying to help, so I said, "We have professionally...

    That... can be quite nuanced, and depends on other factors, and how often it happens, and where it happens. Gotta love complexity right? If it happens every day, combined with impulsivity, getting easily distracted, losing track of time, and you "procrastinate" things you actually want to do...

    What Annoyed You Today?

    Well, if I can ease things. Procrastination and laziness are conscious choices. You know you should be doing something, and you actively choose not to. What you're feeling I wouldn't exactly call procrastination though, as you said you don't want to do it, but it still happens. I know that...

    Insurance still hasn't processed the prior authorization from my doctor for my medication. Gotta love bureaucracy.

    Malfunction? That's a... weird phrase.

    Prior authorization is ****ing ridiculous. Can't just believe my doctor, insurance? He wrote a specific prescription for a specific and legitimate reason.

    What Annoyed You Today?

    The quickest way to piss me off, besides obviously violating the law and doing something reprehensible, is to say one thing, then do the opposite thing. Case in point, don't say you want to take guitar lessons from me, and I give you my contact info, and you don't even text!! What that tells...

    What Annoyed You Today?

    I swear every vocalist I've worked with suffered from LSD. Lead Singer's Disease. It seems all of them get preoccupied with drama, bull**** extracurricular activities, their next romantic partner, instead of investing in vocal lessons, practicing, or improving their stage presence. Seriously...

    Insurance decided it was a good idea to not cover the combination inhaler prescribed by my pulmonologist, my wife tried asking why and they said they need to talk to me. Do they REALLY WANT to deal with me? I'm not exactly in the best of moods when this **** happens, especially when I wasn't...

    My singer is asking if I have spare XLR cables, even though I told three weeks ago to buy three of them, even if he only needs one. For the record, I don't have any XLR cables.

    Okay, last show we were supposed to do an outdoor gig, but there's several things that were wrong. We ended up leaving as soon as we got there due to general unprofessionalism. First things first, finding the venue was a nightmare, first because exits to the town the venue was in were closed...

    Another way to view this: they simply are supporting you, and want you to succeed with your art. Granted, yes, the advice the way it's given is too generic and not really helpful, but at least their heart is in the right place. Some people don't even have a support system. What I think would...

    It sucks because my two favorite teams are the LA Angels, and the Pittsburgh Pirates. My dad also gets frustrated since he's been a San Francisco Giants fan for like, his whole life.

    I've worked for DirecTV before, and I know why blackouts and why areas buy exclusive rights to broadcast sports, but for those who's favorite teams aren't local, or who don't have a local team, like Idaho, you get shafted and have to dig and hunt to watch and support your favorite teams.

    Somebody told me to fabricate myself a life when he suggested that when paleontologists cast fossils, that they're fabricating missing parts. I chimed in saying that's horrendously misleading, because the word "fabricate" has the connotation that these fossils were created, not naturally...

    Well, one silver lining is that you can abuse that to get into places way cheaper. Or, you can be me, 6 foot tall, bearded, long haired man with a deep baritone, I get no discounts whatsoever, so I have to pay full price, lol.

    Mario is actually Japanese. His surname being Itsumi. And in Japanese, the surname comes before your first name. So it'd be Itsumi Mario. :D

    I see a post of well-wishes, donations, and such for my friend and fellow bandmate that died recently, and that warms my heart. But some piece of f*cking filth decided to use his death to talk about substance abuse issues in the area, literally implying that my close friend and bandmate passed...

    I hate pharmacies. Doctors are fine, but I've had to yell at a few pharmacists before, same with my wife, because apparently, it's too difficult to read what the doctor prescribed.

    My whole side of mom's family is Mormon, and I get constantly judged by them because my dad and I are very outspoken about our feelings on Mormonism. ... Let's just say we're not too fond of it, in fact, my dad and I aren't too fond of organized religions just in general, even though my dad is...

    Seems like assholes are in full swing, because one guy didn't like it when I said you shouldn't be using fingertip protectors when playing guitar, and I cited Yngwie Malmsteen as an example to follow, because he doesn't need them nor would he use them, and cautioned against using Tony Iommi to...

    Exactly. Couldn't continue doing business with him. What's worse, is the band he said that to was the punk band with the lead singer dressed in drag. So I feel he's projecting a bit when he says we musicians are the homophobic ones. It's not only that, but he's extremely flaky, such that other...

    A guy trying to run a music festival started talking unprofessional sh*t about us and the other bands, artists, and projects we're friends with because we pulled out of his festival for his unprofessional behavior and attitude. He told a band that we're good friends with that, "They f*cking...

    Some jackass is blasting god-awful auto-tuned country music so the whole neighborhood can hear, while working on a complete pile of crap with peeling flat black paint that he thinks is cool to revv the engine with no muffler, so you have that noise combined with Florida Georgia Line, and lemme...

    My back's been in pain ever since the last show I played. Maybe I should insist on help every time I haul my gear, because my lower back's been killing me.

    UPDATE: So thankfully after hearing our concerns, he understands, and him and another member are already in talks with a different venue, and I didn't know this prior, but any entry fees or ticket sales, as well as merch sold is ours, so that softened things a bit. Still though, he understands...

    I just found out last night that our guitarist decided to schedule a New Year's show without discussing it with everyone. Even worse, it's a venue where you have to pay to play a show, which they're asking for $100, but we get $50 back. He tried explaining it to me when I asked, "So we're...

    I practice meditation already for anxiety. For anger, I'm gonna look into different ways to help with when I get angry at a situation and how to express and deal with it better. Which I never thought I had to do, because I never thought I was holding onto things.

    Update: It's been four goddamn days without heat in the dead of winter. it's 59° Fahrenheit in the house, and the furnace guy was available while we weren't at home, so I left work to become available, and now I'm on his schedule. I texted and called him for him to say, "I'll let you know when...

    I'm not sure. They did get entirely new maintenance staff when the new owner bought up the complex where I live, so somebody's trying to fix the mess, but I haven't had to call upon them yet. Let's just say that based on prior experience, I expect the worst.
