What made me unhappy today ?

New high score for me. I tripped UP the stairs, fell on the landing, smacked my face on a laundry hamper, and lacerated by upper lip almost perfectly dead center through the part in my mustache where it meets my nose. 4 hours in the ER getting stitched/glued together. Could have been worse. An inch lower and I'd be missing teeth. So stuuuuuuupid!
 
I ordered a dress off of Amazon and what arrived was nothing like the pic in the advertisement. What I got was a thin ugly t-shirt dress that probably cost a dollar to make. So, let's do a refund. Got the return label - not only is it in Chinese, but I have to pay for postage.

@Homer Potvin - am I allowed to name the company?

They gave me a link to the seller, but I don't think I will click it.
 
Sorry to hear that! I hope it doesn't interfere with eating.
Eating is fine. It's all the way at the top where the lip meets the nose. Smiling and laughing hurts like a bitch, which is fine because I'm in the mood for neither.

I don't see a reason to mention to it, though let's forgo that, please. Feel free to skewer them in the product reviews, though.
 
I just need a hug. A lot happened in 24 hours. Family is safe and sound. But things are just stressful.

I'm not sure what happened, and it's none of my business. I'm just glad you and your family are safe. *hug*

My niece has always warned me - do not order clothes off of Amazon. Always directly from reputable sellers.

She's right. What if you order some clothes from some Joe Schmoe on Amazon, and when the clothes are delivered, they don't fit right, or something is off, or ... or ... or ... ???

Reputable sellers are best. *nod* :)

As I recall the protocol, you're supposed to grow the mustache after you split your lip, so as to cover up the scar. But glad you kept the teeth intact.

This happened to me a few years ago. Never again. I've learned to never buy anything from third-party sellers on Amazon, especially from sellers in China. I bought this cool shirt in an XXL size, but the shirt I received, well, it was Chinese XXL. I'm not sure if it would've fit me when I was a skinny teenager lol. And yeah the same thing - I have to pay to ship it back? Hell no. Just put it in the donation bin and ate the lesson.

That said, buying clothing from reputable Amazon sellers is fine. I do it a few times a year, including an order from a couple weeks ago.
