#825 When you need to erase something but the eraser of your pencil is already worn out

Instead of the delightful sound and feeling of an eraser snubbing out your unwanted marks, you are greeted with the screeching vibrations of metal or plastic against paper. You'll also be able to look forward to some nice streaky marks on your paper when you intended just the opposite to be there, absolutely nothing. Where's the Magic Rub when you need it?

It's just slightly annoying.

#826 Unknowingly leaving something destructive or fragile in your pocket before sending pants through the washing machine

Markers, pens, chapstick, money, important notes, electronics. If it's slightly valuable to you or it's slightly destructive when washed, you can bet that it will end up in the washing machine in the pocket of a favorite pair of pants of yours. It's fine, you can still where them, that ink blotch is totally "in" this year.

It's just slightly annoying.

#826 When the hand dryer in the bathroom turns off before your hands are dry

Not much needs to be said here, because this happens 100% of the times you need to dry your hands with in a bathroom with only hand dryer machine things. I'm all for going green, but I miss the paper towels in the bathroom.


It's just slightly annoying.

#827 When your wallet is uncomfortably thick

Seems like this shouldn't be a problem, right? If having too much money in your wallet is an uncomfortable problem, then I'll be uncomfortable all day, every day.

Let's not kid ourselves though. For most of us, our wallets aren't thick from too much cash. It's probably all those "buy ten, get one" free cards, it's those credit cards that need to be paid off, it's the several forms of ID, it's the insurance card, the business cards. Usually, anything but cash.

The more you accumulate, the thicker your wallet gets, and the more uncomfortable it is to sit on it. You'll have a permanent lean towards whatever pocket your wallet isn't in. One of your butt cheeks might even be a little sore after a long dinner.

It's okay though, when you get that free sandwich for spending over a hundred bucks at that fast food joint, it will be worth it.

It's just slightly annoying.

#828 Stubbing your toe

It's such a stupid and embarrassing way to hurt yourself. No matter what you stub it on, it's ultimately your fault for not watching where you were walking. It usually doesn't hurt enough to be extremely painful really annoying but hey...

It's just slightly annoying.
