    My dog died recently, and those freaking memory reels keep messing up my day. I can’t not look at them, and when I do, I’m in tears after a minute.

        That sucks, sorry for your loss man. Being reminded of that kind of shit is waaaay worse than what I’m whining about, and mine is bad enough.
