A Few Things That Would Make Life a Little Better and Easier

​Written by Shae

I feel the need to apologize for this blog right off the bat. It has been the weirdest week at work, ever. Like, I can’t even begin to start with what has been going on. Through the madness, however, I got to thinking of things that would just make life easier. Or things that could make life better. Like free chocolate with any sad movie ever. P.S. I Love you would go a lot better with some Hershey kisses. Or better yet, a free box of tissues right before an episode of Supernatural. That show hurts your feels. If you have watched Supernatural without ever crying, there’s something wrong with you….and we should probably be friends, because you have a cool superpower.
 
Netflix needs a “Leaving Soon” section. I shouldn’t have to read about what shows and movies are being taken off this mystical place on some internet site. I should be able to get onto Netflix and see a “Things you probably never were going to watch, but now they’re being taken of the site, so watch them all now” section. The title needs a lot of work, but you know exactly what I mean. Netflix also needs better categories. Like an ‘are you sure?’ section. Or better yet, they need a privacy mode. Nobody needs to log onto the Netflix account and see that I literally binge watched every kids movie on here. Which, I’ve done, with little shame. Nobody should know that I watched every Tinkerbelle themed movie! That’s privileged information, thank you very much.
 
Amazon really needs a ‘Drunk’ or ‘Sad’ mode. I like to shop a lot when I’m either down or might have had a few drinks, because I’m 30 and a human and that’s what 30 year old humans do. Amazon needs to have a set limit, and when you have added more than that, it automatically puts them on a wish list so if you do buy some things, it’s not as bad. Why did I need 3 wig brushes and two BB-8 pillows? I’m not sure. I also ordered a new wig and probably some dishes….for real though, drunk Amazon ordering is the weirdest thing ever. It’s like Christmas when the packages arrive…and then you look at your bank account…
 
iTunes needs to personally text you when new songs are released by artists that you’re obsessed with. I don’t have time to sit and pay attention to when Lindsey Stirling is releasing a new album. I hardly remember to get on and download new music once a year. But if iTunes could send a “hey, the violinist you’re weirdly obsessed with just put a new song up for sale” text, I’d gladly buy it. Same applies with any Epic Rap Battle song. Because….they’re enjoyable.
 
And finally, Pizza needs to just automatically be prescheduled to show up at my house. It is Sunday or Monday night, I just started my work week, I am not about to cook dinner. I should be able to order a pizza and preschedule the next delivery. Why? Because pizza is life, and is probably not helping my whole “Let’s get healthy for me!” thing. But who cares. Pizza places also need to start offering milkshakes. What’s better than pizza? A chocolate and peanut butter milkshake.
