You Know What Grinds My Gears? - Things that personally piss you off

People('project managers') who think that a project needs more meetings to be successful. They have now managed to allocate 70% of my time for this project to meetings. I really hope they don't expect me to do any actual work. My week has multiple projects, this one is only scheduled for a few hours to begin with.
 
Been three weeks since I filed my taxes and I still don't have a refund, fucking IRS.
Unfortunately, the IRS is still dealing with delays caused by COVID. When they first shut down for a number of months in 2020, everything that came in went into temporary storage. From what I've heard professionally, that backlog has not been entirely processed yet and is causing problems for some people trying to file their 2020 and/or 2021 returns. Certain credits that require a person's manual review also result in longer processing time.

That said, I feel for anyone dealing with IRS or state treasury bureaucracy when it comes to income taxes and refunds.

I'm not sure what thread I posted it to, but I once worked someplace that did something similar once we lost our biggest client. We spent more needless time on twice-daily status meetings and writing day-end status e-mails when all we were doing was little more than busywork that barely changed day to day.
 
The continued existence of TikTok.
Hope that 10 second video with your ring light and stupid dance was worth selling your soul and information to China.

Back in my day we had to get a shitty myspace/Facebook/my yearbook account to act like a complete narcissistic faggot. At least those sites taught basic page layout and customization skills and before the normies took them over you could have fun posting horrible shit to friends and enemies alike.

Ever watch those tiktok videos that some yt channels play of whining women about dating and just everything? It's been bugging me for a while now. If you take away some of CWC's ridiculousness, there's a lot of overlap between chris' methods like 10-15+ years ago and arrogance and delusion and these tiktok sluts today. It's frightening and uncanny.

They said the quiet part out loud.
 
Thinking about people who are cruel to anipals or disregard wildlife/do careless things like not cut their 6 pack rings to help out the turts or more grandiose offensives such as the ruining of habbotats or other shit that humans do makes me pretty angry if I dwell on it. more disappointed.
