Have you everr gotten so frrustrrated at something (usually something intrricate, like putting cotton thrrough the eye of a needle, orr trrying to scrrew them little glasses scrrews in), so frrustrated that you almost crry? You stomp like a child and almost shed a tearr.
Today I was trrying to peal a harrd boiled egg and rratherr than the shell coming off in big chunks, little tiny chips werre brreaking away, and when I thought maybe, just maybe a big bit would come off, a bit off egg came off with it and so my egg was getting smallerr and smallerr and the amount of shell on it neverr seemed to go down, and I was heating up and almost crrying thrrough sheerr frrustrration.
Is it just me?

I ONLY get mad over little things. Big, life changing situations will hardly phase me... but if I can't beat a fucking Xenosaga boss without keeping all my characters alive to collect the experience, I just want to lay down in the middle of the street and die.

i can really relate.. when.. my computer loses everything i've been working on, or freezes up, or when i was a really young lad, trying to build lego sets that were too advanced for my age.. with the misleading instruction manuals, and all..
little things suck.. it's funny though, that annoying-assed "good charlotte" song that talks about "little things" just came on as i was reading this post..

I get pretty mad/loud when playing capture the flag in Red Faction 2.
"it's funny though, that annoying-assed "good charlotte" song that talks about "little things" just came on as i was reading this post.. please shoot me.."
For some reason, that reminds me of a time when my friend blew out a tire on his car, flew off the road, and banged his head really hard on the window. Once the car stopped, he fell out and lied there on the ground. The radio was still on and that stupid Jimmy Eat World song "It just takes some time!" came on. He said at that very moment, he believed he was in hell.

you should throw your hard boiled eggs into really cold water immediately after boiling them. the egg inside will shrink more than the shell. as a result, the shell is much easier to peel off.
another egg peeling tip: peel a strip around the circumference of the egg in the long direction ( see picture) then the two side halves of the shell come off really easy after that.

I fuckin hate it when I can`t find my keys before I go out but usually i`m pretty mellow about shit and just talk to the egg. Build trust with the egg. then it`ll peel away.

Being a mechanic i know how frustrating things can be and im normaly under pressure or time limits . plus there is nothing worse than haveing someone look over your sholder while you struggle your ass off trying to get a bolt started with your hand down the back of a hot engine in the pouring rain .... AAAAAHHHHHHHHH *turns into the hulk and smashes everything*

gently hit the hardboilded egg with a spoon, so that the egg shell gets broken up..then hold the egg under water, while peeling (rubbing) the shell off with your hand. it'll come right off! :)

Nah I aint never get frustrated...if I were to be having trouble getting the shell of an egg I would simply swollow the egg whole, crush it with my spine and regurgitate the shell out...I saw it once on a program about snakes, and it works real good.
