Plenty of forum banter up to that point. I could see you're cool AF as soon as we met in person. <3 right back atcha.

I didn't actually test drive his car though, I walked past your car and hit the unlock button on the key and somehow your car unlocked. So naturally I took that opportunity to crunch the shit out of your cabin air filter. I can't believe it took you this long to find it!
I knew it. You probably ruined my reverse light switch too. Dam.

Why does it look like there is fluid leaking from my sway bar bushing?

Miscommunication at work is such a pain in the ass.

Two different things with the same coworker today.

1. I'm having a bunch of errors compiling some code so they ask me to push it to the online repository so they can get a closer look at the problem. So I push the code with some other irrelevant changes I'm still working on. The coworker immediately starts critiquing everything instead of focusing on the thing I'm actually having trouble with.
2. Later on once they realize they did way more than I asked for, they suggested simplifying this one thing. So I tried it but the code wouldn't work because it currently expects the non simplified version. So I messaged them saying that and should I update it to expect the simpler thing. Their response was "we just need to simplify that and don't need to do what you're saying."

I literally already did this and instead of trying to understand what I tried they literally repeat the thing I said I already tried that didn't work.

Sometimes it's advantageous to switch to voice chat in those situations.
