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

[The Curmudgeon]

I hate how people think they need to be important to be happy or for their lives to matter. Of course, I mean this in general. It feels like most people can't appreciate what they have. They can't accept themselves for who they are and just try to be the best person they can be. Put another way, you don't need to be the big fish in a small pond, 15 minutes of fame, or any measure of power or authority.

How the fuck does people sleeping piss you off? Up yours.

Barely noticeable, really

To be fair, that's a more extreme context and @AnOminous most likely thought you meant to include people who are just sitting upright and nodding off without so much as even leaning towards anyone. Some nogg treating the seats like their own couch at home after a late night out is a far cry from what I myself imagined.

I hate it when people yell when they talk. I shouldn’t feel the vibrations of your voice in the styrofoam cup I’m holding. Pipe down or learn sign language or get a hearing aid or maybe don’t bellow every thought as it emerges from the ever diminishing neurons in your brain.

nothing in life quite gets my blood boiling as "y'all".
i can't really explain why, but whenever i see that infernal word used in an online post i immediately move onto the next, memory holing whatever i had previously read.

People who get political for no reason. No, I don’t care if you are for trump. No, I don’t care that you for the “lgbt”. It’s like the old saying goes: opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one and they’re kind of shitty. People like that is the reason why I hate talking to others.

Only in text, though. People who actually say it irl because they're Southern or whatever are fine.

Some freaks were never taught the concept of "inside voice" as children.

And the snoring. Or if they fall on you and start drooling, invading your personal space. Not to mention they're holding up space.

People singing on the train

People sleeping on the train

People farting on the train

Pissing and moaning like an impotent jerk (e.g. making finger-guns and yelling "pop pop!") while on the train.

Still better than riding the bus, though

Trains in general annoy me.

People who play the victim-card or try to gaslight you as soon as you criticise them.
It's infuriating, time-consuming and just unproductive.

I agree! In my own experience, these same types of people are also quick to lecture you about judging, but of course they mean it's only wrong to judge them. It's okay when they judge other people though. They'll also remind you that no one is perfect. What they really mean is that everyone but them is supposed to be perfect. They can do whatever they want! Because they say so! Like you said, the moment you stand up to them or fight back they'll have their trusty victim card at the ready. Crybullies are awful.

Oh, piss off. Hugh Dancy deserves better than this.

Being hot and the fucking heat. Down here in gatorland its only febuary but winters already officially over and now were heading into our wonderful 10 months of disgusting swampass summer.

Hearing northniggers complaining about the snow is also annoying. Oh boohoo, white shits on the ground. Meanwhile our equivalent of snow is either palmetto bugs or love bugs.

 

[The Southwest Strangla]

older people who say "back in my day" even if it didn't happen/doesn't apply. "Back in my day, we went to school even if there were three feet of snow; you kids are just lazy and don't want to finish school" no, I'm sure you skipped school on snow days. truancy was a major issue back then. also, students dropped out a lot back in the day. It's much more common to meet and an older induvial who doesn't have a high school diploma/ GED than one who does. "People are lazy...back in my day" people were always lazy... "kids today" kids always acted like this...

 

[Persian Carpet Salesman]

People who say more in front of words that don't need it like more better or more faster, it's become very common and it really annoys me.

 

[soft breathing]

Slight powerlevel, but.
People who ask to see the designs/art I do, just to comment something along the lines of :
'can't you use your talent to produce something nice looking for me that I can hang in my living room?'

1) it's not talent, i wasn't born with any of those skills, it's decades of daily practice.
2) no, no i can and will not change my style for you.
3) especially not for free.
4) fuck you.

When expecting a functional product to be "high expectations."

Okay, then I'll say asking for full price is a "high expectation" as well.

Majority of streaming Culture / Twitch

Watching lonely touch-starved idiots fuel their own depression by participating in an emote-wave in chat after their favorite king of losers streamer does some mundane shit on camera IS A DESPAIR CHAMBER.

It's the worst reality tv show. It's losers profiting off of other lonely losers' mental illness. It's as gimmicky as Onlyfans when it comes to selling a fake sense of relationship or community.

Years ago I use to visit r/livestreamfail to watch people humiliate themselves on camera, and now it's filled with simps posting clips, hoarding over 5k upvotes or some at times, of the top streamers stuttering, screaming loud in their mic, or spilling their drink, or some other fucking boring tasteless shit that actually triggers me.

The whole anime vr girl larp also has some pedo element to it and you can't convince me otherwise.

Children with crusty lips

As well as their parents who don't teach them to drink water and use lip balm in stead of sipping on Mountain Dew all day.
