So glad I bought tickets so I could see them live and not have to deal with a festival, especially Bonaroo.

Wait....when did Bonaroo decide to have their festival this year? They just decided to change it up, and rather than have it in the spring, they chose September.....September 3rd! The same date as the show that I bought tickets for. End result, Deftones cancels their show to play at Bonaroo. Beyond pissed off!
So where does that leave you? Will your tickets translate into Bonnaroo entrance for the day the Deftones play?

Negative. I'll get a refund for the cost of the tickets. Bonaroo tickets are around $300/person for general admission. We had damn near the best seats in the house that weren't on the floor directly in front of the stage.

I have no desire to go to Bonaroo.....at all. If we were to get transferable tickets to go to the bonaroo show, I'd sell them.

Bought new golf clubs. The bag I want has been out of stock for months. I got a “back in stock” email notification, jumped online and ordered it within 30 min.

“Please allow 5 weeks for delivery.”

What in the fuck kind of definition of “back in stock” is that? Are they having Forest Gump run it to me on foot?

First World Problems

I have so many BMWs that the weight of all my key fobs cause my shorts to sag below my waist.

The more trivial the better!

I'll start.

1. My vehicle only has front heated/cooled seats but only heated seats in the back.

2. My robot vacuum only has 100 minutes of battery life so it has to go back to recharge and come back to finish cleaning.

3. My heated steering wheel only has one setting.

The clock on my microwave has started gaining about 30 seconds a week. How does this happen?

No. It just gains a minute every two weeks. I know because I did the math. Took me a couple of months to work it out.

That's nothing. The touch panel switch on my microwave hood/vent light no longer works. It's no longer responsive; leaving the cooktop light on all the time. I had to go by an LED bulb so I won't waste a lot of electricity.

Oh dear, I hope you don't have to carry around that big Display Key around. They are the size of a TV remote.

Cool. I'll keep an eye on my alcohol processing abilities. Sounds like they may be increasing.

I'm still rocking an i5 7600k and a GTX 1080. I want this LG38GN950 but my 1080 would likely struggle with it a bit at least on newer games. Although, I'm currently on a 27" 165hz G-sync and the 38" isn't a 4k so it could probably do ok-ish at least.

I figure if I'm going to upgrade though I'll go whole hog and build a new rig entirely. Waiting to buy a house too so I can see what the future gaming area will look like first, don't want to buy something and have nowhere to put it when I move.

I can't be bothered to cycle or walk my 2 mile commute, so I get fat and my cars do too many short trips.
