Buying two prepackaged skin free chicken breasts and paying by the kg, only to find a big lump of usless fat hidden under one of the breasts that I obviously paid for.
This grinds my Xmas gears.

Something that grinds my gears: A doctor who comes back to work after a year and a half, expecting his accounts still work, then getting pissed at me when I told them that per national policy, they were deleted 90 days after they left the last time, and then claiming because they had the letters "MD" after their name, it should somehow entitle them to special treatment. Too bad common sense and planning ahead weren't taught in this person's med school.
What sucks is finding an awesome gadget, appliance, etc. that you think is the best quality and unique, recommending it, and finding out Wal-Mart sells it lolz... damn place has everything.
99% of "awesome gadgets" we buy are not from this county, or even state. But, just sweatpants, candles, Emergen C, TP, Lighter fluid, etc. we are stuck with that shithole. It's 40 miles away in Omak and it has driven virtually every small "ma & pa" store out of business.
A friend that lives in Seattle was telling me a horror story about WM, and all I could say to him was "why in the hell were you at a Wallmart!?!?" Every option available there. We are captives here. UHHHG!

Thankfully…we have many other options. Shopping at Walmart is an experience…a very bad experience. Although, I would trade all of my options for the snow, land and solitude that it seems you have. Unfortunately I would probably get divorced and not see my daughter anymore.
It's definitely a trade off, but worth it to us for sure. The nearsest traffic light is 40 miles away (in front of WM lol) and there are only 4 stop lights in the entire county. What I miss most about the city? Restaurants. Pike Place Market is cool, Shops are cool, even Malls are nice. But we are not bogged down with traffic, crime, or people. lol
And I don't know if you know this but CJ and I own a business and work next to each other every day. (there was a long learning curve haha) And we have no daughter.

Spending a lot if money to see your favorite band in concert only to have them play nothing but their crappy new material after they sold out and changed their genre. (This has happened to me and at least half the crowd walked out) I know you have a right to play what you want, but this is also your job, so to quote Joe Dirt, "It isn't what you want, its what the consumer wants".
^Now you know darn well it is too warm down there for your nuts to freeze to the porch.
On that note, be careful sitting on lawn chairs without adequate support. Don't need your boys hanging between the slats that spread out when you sit on them and getting pinched when you go to get up...
