I have so many bottles, jars and packets of food on the second shelf of my pantry that they no longer fit, so I have had to move some of them on to the third shelf where I keep our medications.
This really mucks up the storage system.

The kids can't seem to keep the pan cupboard tidy.
When I complain, I get told to 'put the flipping stuff away yourself then.'
There's no respect these days.

Surely you must know by now,that they do a rubbish job so that you don't ask them to do it ever again.It's the oldest trick in the book.

I have the pan cupboard done in a clearly logical manner... well, clearly logical to me, obviously not to my children who look upon it as a game of tetris...

Went to the club for lunch today for beer battered fish, chips and salad. The salad didn't have any dressing on and tasted too much like salad.

Ok let's kick it off 
Couldn't find my tomato ketchup for three days, finally found it tonight in the oils section in my pantry hiding behind the olive oil, peanut oil, ghee, rice bran oil, mustard oil and sesame oil bottles.
Edit: forgot to mention my seasoned curry oil and ethnic coconut oil as well.

Our fridge beeps when the door's been left open too long. However a sensor has gone so now it beeps as soon as you open the door. The guy can't get here until tomorrow afternoon and it's really really annoying!

Network shares on the media server (free machine I inherited from work and put to good use) keep failing and the smart TV in the bedroom cant see my vast library of illegally acquired HD video content....
....yesterday I had to get up, walk to the study, copy something onto a USB stick from the server, then stuff the USB stick into the side of the TV before I could watch the latest hit TV show

The inhumanity of it all!
