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

[AnOminous]

I have these little brown flies in my place it of nowhere and I don't know where they came from or how to get rid of them.

Sound like drain flies. Pour bleach down it. If not, it's possibly fruit flies attracted by some hidden rotting thing. Good luck if you're in an apartment and they're from somebody else.

George Soros is without exaggeration an evil human being.

Bit of an odd one but it irks me so much when I go to parties.

I patiently wait for the mic hogs to stop singing on the karaoke machine so I can have a turn. When I pick my song, someone else tries to butt in and sing so off-key, it makes me sing bad as well because I can't concentrate!
One time I did karaoke on my own, there was so much feedback that I was tempted to just quit halfway through the song.

Why can't I have a good karaoke sesh? I have a much better time singing when no one's home.

People that insist on correcting your pronunciation of the word Nissan if you say it any other way than the "Japanese" way of Niece-ahn.

If you're THAT insistent, would you like to know how you pronounce Mazda?

That's right. MATSUDA. But you don't say Matsuda because that's not a pronunciation which would naturally come in English, so stop being a retard.

"Reaction channels" and how successful they've become because people are too lazy to watch something on its own.

 

[Marcus Tullius Cicero]

I dislike when people assume the worst with others, be they strangers or supposed friends. A recent example is my grandmother assuming the reason a friend of hers hasn't spoken to her in a number of days/weeks is because she spoke ill of the church we attend. It irks me that despite knowing this woman for decades, she's not willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Another thing I hate is when people only see the negative aspects of something. Whatever good might exist is ultimately ignored.

I have restless leg syndrome. It pisses me off, but it also worries me. I just want to sleep dammit.

Try washing the legs with hot water (like, a bit hotter than you usually can tolerate). Setting the temperature is tricky as you do not want burns, just the shock.

My brain does that, it pisses me off warring with it.

how to get rid of them.

Mix vinegar and dish soup in a bowl and leave it out. That'll trap the flies.

I can’t wait to see some screeching libtard being held down while xir’s “faucie ouchie” tattoo is skinned off of xir.

That's a really odd fantasy.

About a month ago I was actually able to re-construct a video that got taken down because the "reactor" was so stupid he didn't even know his mic was muted so all I had to do was remove the bits where he would thrash his cursor around and google things.

How there are people on here writing walls on how lolicon is ok and nobody ridicules them for it.

Thank you for the advice! I'll try that.

There's nothing pissing me off today, but I did bump my foot earlier and that was slightly irritating.

Adding in to this, people who have a tantrum because you ended up singing “their” song.

I love going out to bars for karaoke night, and there’s always some dipshit there who thinks he’s Dean Martin or whoever the kids think is cool these days. Still remember going up and singing “Modern Love” by David Bowie and after I had finished this guy comes over to my table, trying to act friendly but you could tell he was upset. Said I did a good job but he was planning on singing that song and I kinda stole his thunder. Guy actually told me like the next four songs he was planning to sing and offered to buy me a drink if I didn’t pick any of them.

Lmao whatever dude. You’re singing for a bunch of drunk people, you’re not auditioning for American Idol

People who hit on food service workers are animals and should be publicly flogged for being in the way and creepy

Working in food service should get you time out of Purgatory.

Today it's how close the abyss is to the edges of daily life. Like it takes not even one search to show you how much horrid shit is out there and no one cares. People go on in their day to day like it's all fine and treat me like an asshole because I can read. Literally the other day I was at dinner and there was a conversation about how different psychiatric laws were from state to state, and my first thought was not "how horrible" it was "no shit stupid". Of course, both these people are blue voters, not like it would be any different if they voted red mind you, and I know for a fucking fact in spite of all of their lip service to (((activism))). Neither of them are going to shit to change it because they don't want their life to be harder.
I'll get of my soapbox now, thanks for listening

I was going to post something else, but it didn't work. So I'm changing my post to .webp file format. That's what pisses me off.

My friend met her husband like that and is now happily married with children with him.

Around 10 years ago, for fun, I managed to reassemble the near-entirety of Ace Ventura 2 purely from short clips uploaded to YT to see if it was possible. Some had hardcoded subs, some were camera recordings off of the uploader's TV, but in the end, I was only missing around 8 minutes of stuff, mostly credits-related. Shows how much of a joke copyright law is.

Holy fucking shit I've never heard of those and I'm 99% sure I've been trying to get rid of them for weeks. Thought they were just fruit flies and tried the usual for them, but there's still one or two always hanging around my sink.

I am going to rain righteous basic justice on those little faggots.

Perhaps you don't run into them being mocked because most of those of us who mock them get tired of their retardation and degeneracy pretty quickly; it really is just the same stupid shit over and over from their hivemind. The pedos have occasionally also been getting their posts chucked into the Thunderdome lately. There was one who was relentlessly shitting up the Mad at the Internet thread last week(?) and Josh banished him to his own little dedicated thread where he can scream all he wants about how much of a chad he is for jerking off to children while not being able to attract women. I stand by my assertion that anyone posting about how much they want to fuck kids should get banished to their own board called "Nonce Patrol" and get an ID tag that says "nonce" or "pedo" or something.

The sudden resistance to Eminem by Zoomers, who are calling his work "mid" and whose favourite artist probably got shot to death before he turned 21. It started on SXN80 and r/HHH about 5 - 6 years ago, but it really kicked up a notch once Revival released and Fantano rose to prominence.

I could write pages and pages on this weird phenomenon, but this comment covers it better than I could have:

As an artist and as a human being, there are many things you can fault Eminem for. Getting drugged up and nearly dying in front of his own daughter multiple times. Failing to manage his record label and letting many of his talents go to waste. Making Revival. Letting Paul Rosenberg and Snoop Dogg convince him into the NFT con. But being a bad rapper is not one of them. Were he actually bad, the public and critics alike would have let him know decades ago.
