Because I came in too late to the last one!

My friend will not. Shut. The fuck. Up. About Endgame. I'm not into MCU at all, and normally this is just fine in our friendship; we have other things in common! But she's super mad about this movie, and literally every single conversation we're having has to come back to it. And I just... I don't care! I don't care about any of it.

I've flat-out told her that I feel like she hardly wants to talk to me at all unless it's about a movie I'll never see, and she said she saw my point and she apologized, but she just. Keeps doing it. I'm at my wits end! I'm hoping this just cools off in the next couple of weeks, I know the wound's still kind of fresh, but like... this feels unhealthy? Something I hate just happened in one of my fandoms too, but it hasn't consumed my entire soul like it seems to have for her. I want to tell her to take a couple hundred steps back, because there's no reason to be this personally invested, but idk.

Omg, I have a friend who dies this too. It's really annoying when it's a shared fandom, because i just want to forget about it while she rants forever snd keeps bringing it back.

That's just it? Like... you can just forget about the upsetting thing and move on. There has already been so much fix-it fic for what she's so upset about, and idk. Having shitty things in canon 100% sucks, I get that, but that's what fandom is for.

She even has friends that are into MCU, so I really don't get why she keeps bothering me with it! It's like she's literally not capable of talking about anything else. I'm honestly worried for her, but I'm just... hoping she cools off soon. It's so aggravating.

Get one of those squirt bottles that people use for misting plants, and label it "Talking About Endgame" and every time you're around her, just put the bottle someone obvious and within easy reach.

LOL

I wanted to go to a Renfaire next weekend with a friend I haven't seen in a long while. Costumes and all. And my mother thought it was a great idea to get someone to clean our windows (something we can't do well ourselves because of where some of those windows are located) at the exact day and time I wanted to meet up with my friend at home to get dressed up and drive over to the fair. Now I have to see when I'll be able to actually do all the dressing up because that window cleaning person is super unreliable when it comes to the time he arrives and I really don't want to get dressed up/change clothes while a stranger is walking all over the house. And I'm a bit pissed because my mother knew all about my plans but chose to ignore it.

Could you change the time/date of the window cleaning? Or could you get changed at your friend's place or somewhere else maybe?

Unfortunately, no to both. The cleaning guy is someone who calls to ask if you need him when he's in the area which is only every few weeks and my mother wants it done now and not any later. Time wise, it's sketchy anyway. Depending on his schedule, he can appear +/- 2 hours from the time he said he'd come so that sucks.
And my friend lives quite a distance away in the opposite direction to the fair with my home being kind of the halfway point. I think I'll manage somehow but it's still really inconvient (I hate it when I can't plan properly) and kind of inconsiderate of my mother, tbh.

... how is it inconsiderate? She's not saying you can't go or stopping you from going. If the cleaning guy comes, just tell him you're going to be using one particular room for a while so he can clean those windows later once you leave.

That's what I was thinking.

Heck, depending on what one is wearing, it's totally possible to change in the faire parking lot (ask me how I know) without flashing anybody.

Yeah, OP is coming across as more than a little childish and spoiled here. It is, presumably, their mother's house, and their mother has the right to schedule maintenance on a schedule that is the most convenient for her. Besides, maintenance people understand that you need to do stuff in the house around them and do their best to get in the way as little as possible. I'm sure the guy would understand that OP and their friend wanted to get dressed and would stay away from that room while they were doing so.

Say screw the windows and go meet up with your friend anyways.

yeah, this!

It has been raining all day and will be raining all week. Of course it happens during the week I have my sister's dog.

Trade you. It was 87 degrees today in your home state.

You will never make me live in that humid, swamp ass creating state again! NEVER!

LITERALLY JUST TEXT ME BACK AND SAY YOU DON'T WANT TO HANG OUT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HANG OUT

I think we know the same people.

friends: we should hang out soon!

me: does next weekend work?

friends: ..... *crickets*
