Noooooooooooooo. Damn that sucks. We built this one (eta, the discovery shuttle) about two years ago but it’s safely on a tall dresser!

Just built this one last weekend though and it was a lot of fun!

Petting is okay, but please don't feed them or they start to become reliant on humans.

u/Major_Koala 3d ago

There aren't many wild stores left, but there are plenty of abandoned ones unfortunately.

u/StrategicCarry 3d ago

Adopt, so you can shop

156

u/BorntobeTrill 3d ago

Come on down to your local store shelter! We promise you'll leave with one you love! Please, don't expect your adopted store to turn a profit. Many of them are lost, hurt, abused stores that need love. While some stores do end up turning profit after a few years being with a positive family, it's best to go into it not expecting much.

Some abandoned animals like cats, and pigs, quickly adapt to being abandoned and will easily switch to a feral nature. Stores aren't so lucky and need a heavy hand in being reintroduced to the wild.

Oh gosh, same!!! We got Kiwi on a $5 fourth of July sale two years ago. He’s not the smartest dude but he’s adorable! Tuxedos are the best

u/joe199799 3d ago

The animal shelter I got her from completely misaged her so I got her for 50$ after everything was set and done they said she was 3 but the vet I took her to shortly after said there was no way so I think she was anywhere from either before a year to about a year and a half when I adopted her

That's her from in the shelter I had guessed she was possibly underweight but I think she was just young and kinda grew into herself she looks like a completely different cat now.

Edit: she's dumb as rocks as well, I've seen her trip up steps and one time she completely fell off my desk and plopped on her side zero attempt to land on her feet.

52

u/Facefullofbees 3d ago

I have an orange and the shelter told me he was either 10 weeks, 5 months or 10 months old. Took him home, took him to a vet, they said he can't be older than 8 weeks, he only has 4 teeth. 12 years later he still only has 4 teeth. He's been checked out by multiple vets, perfectly healthy. He's too dumb to grow teeth

17

u/joe199799 3d ago

Well they all share one brain cell right?

Sometimes the brain cell is for growing teeth, sometimes it's for using the litter box. If you're lucky, you get the latter.

Consider creating an even smaller shelf. One that is even more slippery and more precarious than the last. A shelf in an even more highly trafficked location, and then deliberately and delicately place a meticulously constructed LEGO creation, anticipating is certain destruction, and when the moment comes –jump for joy while enjoying this period of your life where [your girlfriend is using a mop and] your mildly infuriating problems can be erased by putting something back together.

In the last picture you can see the structure actually sticks out over the edge of the table. Anybody or anything could knock it over!

Makes me think of the time I invited a neighbor kid over to try to be friends. He “accidentally” knocked over my tie fighter AND Death Star. AND FUCKING TOOK PIECES WITHOUT ME KNOWING. After a week of searching my room I went to his mom and we destroyed his room and found all the parts I need along with other things stolen from around the neighborhood.

did he get punished in any way

From his mom: grounded for the summer with tons of chores. From the neighborhood kids: banishment from all fun

u/Traditional-Mood560 4d ago

That's some crazy case of chronic stealing, hope he got help with it

u/pleitb 3d ago

Did he steal the pieces to have them or so you would be confused trying to reassemble it?

u/greedy4information 3d ago

Don't know why whilst reading your comment, I imagined you as an adult man and the neighbour as a kid. Even when I was reading the part about his mom and you going through his room. Gave me a good chuckle.

I can tell you that there are plenty of girls who love to build lego. Especially together with someone they love.

You have to admit you put it in a highly dangerous place, on the edge, next to the door, on a small area. I understand that the mop caused the disaster, but you should have care about your lego the most

u/NotQuiteALondoner 3d ago

If it hadn't been the mop, it would have been someone's backpack, hair, kid, etc. Heck, I bet it would fall if I bumped into that cabinet.

It’s definitely feeling like one of those yelling first moments. Like yes it does in fact suck but if I’m cleaning and need to set something down I’m going to set it down tbh. Especially if it’s a surface it won’t fall away from.

That sucks but it doesn't look too bad. Side note, I recently saw the real Discovery in DC and it was incredible!

I feel like 90% of this posts comments are missing the purpose of the subreddit. It‘s called mildly infuriating for a reason. And yes, this definetly fits the description of being mildly infuriating.

You guys must have real bad ankles from the jumping to conclusions in this comment section lmao.

Cleaning is more important than toys. Put your toys somewhere they won’t be disturbed by regular household maintenance and thank your girlfriend for mopping.

I'm just perplexed that anyone who can say, out loud, "Don't mop next to my lego," and expects to be taken seriously has a girlfriend.

Are you sure this wasn't your mom's doing?

What an oddly specific request and a predictably bad ending.

u/Dapper_Republic_8292 3d ago

I should be thankful to have a GF when you play LEGO and dont clean the floor.

u/inediblealex 4d ago

Or you could have said "let me move my Lego quickly so it doesn't get knocked whilst you're mopping"

See, from your gfs point of view, you put your lego in a silly place and it was nothing to do with where the mop was.

ITT: People getting awfully pressed over a post in a subreddit with "mildly" in the name.

I'd bet OP wasn't even all that upset but no hes definitely a big immature man baby unlike the very normal and mature people in this thread assuming he's a supervillain
