The ‘tfw’ topic

tfw you put on a brand new pair of socks.

[PluMGMK]

tfw your lovely new socks that are soft and stretchy turn coarse and brittle after a few washes

I really hate this.

I wonder if I should just buy new socks every few weeks, they feel awful once they go all "bally".

[PluMGMK]

I got some lovely purple socks in Dunnes a while back, and now I want to get more but they don't have that style anymore

[Steo]

It's really annoying when that happens and they discontinue something you like. Next time my socks end up going hard like that, I might just go down and buy a lot of them in Dunnes myself too. There's one not too far from here, and I don't really see the need to buy expensive brands of socks like Nike when A. nobody sees the logos, and B. they just get destroyed (especially if you end up walking in a puddle when it's raining ).

tfw you wake up to the alarm, tell it to stop, and proceed to fall back asleep for a few minutes when a dream immediately starts back up... then you wake up shortly after thinking "Oh crap".

tfw you don't want to be living the dream in the literal sense, huh?

I ended up buying two packs of these, one in each print: https://www.dunnesstores.com/soft-touch ... 2-606480/p

Hoo yeah, I know that all too well!

Ah cool. I wonder if my local one will have these. They probably do since they're on the website.

tfw you reach home, about to sleep when suddenly you need to go to the bathroom

[Steo]

tfw you make the same mistake you did 4 days ago while out at a relative's place.

[Master]

tfw you don't have a cold but your nose is stuffy af and you really could do with something to purge your nasal passages...

[Reese Riverson]

I'm sorry you're dealing with that, Master. I hope that clears up soon. I know it sucks, as I've been dealing with that from the cold I've had.

tfw you get woke up by the dog barking downstairs.

[The Jonster]

Yeah having a stuffy nose sucks, especially when you’re about to sleep, coming from someone who had a cold two weeks ago. Hope it clears up soon.

tfw you go to bed and wake up much later than you expected.

[Greengoop]

Tfw you’ve listened to one of the two albums you were meaning to listen to, and it’s now your favourite album.

[Steo]

tfw you're looking up maths equations and finding it interesting.

[Reese Riverson]

tfw you get into a bit of a rabbit hole regarding 486 processors, especially the AMD AM5x86 133MHz chip that apparently is quite the chip. Seems most if not all can easily hit 160MHz with minimal effort.

[The Jonster]

tfw you have to update your BIOS so the option to function toggle appears.

[PluMGMK]

Which function are you toggling?

tfw you start using a benzoyl peroxide gel on your chin and you're expecting it to hurt like hell… but it doesn't really hurt at all

[Master]

Hmm, if I'm reading it right, is this relating to the function keys and the fn modifier? I know for laptops, they have it so you can toggle between having default function key behaviour, and pressing fn to switch to the alternative manufacturer functions (vol up/down is a common one), rather than having it do the alternate functions by default (so you'd need to press fn to get the normal f1-f12 and so on).

I would've thought that sort of functionality would've been the BIOS at release mind, so maybe I'm getting it wrong?

TFW you want to call it a night, but are procrastinating on the wind-down routine.
