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

Also yes i use the soap in my face but I was talking about on my actual body since I got fat guy pimples.

Try something with jojoba oil. Sanctuary stuff is pretty damn good and cleared the keratosis pilaris that has plagued me for years. The body wash/shower gel is very good. As is the scrub. Doesn't smell overtly feminine but smells nice.

I don’t care if it’s a feminine product, it’s not like my balls are gonna fall off if I smell like cherry pie every once in a while.
 
This damn head cold I have right now is grinding my gears. Sleep? What’s that? I wake up every hour unable to breathe because my sinuses have gunked up. And now it’s starting to go into my chest, producing lovely, barking coughs that hurt like hell.

I watch a lot of YouTube as I don’t have cable and seldom turn on the TV. Much ado has been made about the algorithm but it has completely shat the bed lately. I get constant videos showing up in my feed that I have NO interest in. I’ve never played Minecraft. I don’t watch MMA or football (either kind), I don’t give a crap about MrBeast and I sure as hell do NOT want to see any current day, “popular” music. I keep selecting the don’t show me this garbage options but it doesn’t make a bit of difference. The algorithm must see me as an average 20-year-old guy instead of an old broad who isn’t interested that crap.
 
Seeing obese children with their parents. It's literally child abuse and neglect, you're setting your kid up for a shorter life full of health complications.
They're also setting their kids up for food addiction, and bad food choices.
 
Someone telling me about a movie/book I haven't seen/read and then proceed to give a Wiki-level plot sypnopsis of every story beat, without any tangents or annecdotes... usually at 1:1 pace of if I had watched their recommendation.

I use pseudoephedrine for this (there are other remedies that are offered but most are scarcely better than a placebo). Obviously don't take it if you have a heart condition, and if you're in the US there's a federal limit on how much you can buy in a given time period. Some people think that the snot etc. is part of the body's attempt to heal from the cold and it would be bad to get rid of it, but in fact the opposite is true - the cold viruses exploit the body's reaction to foreign substances in the nose in order to spread.

Thanks for the info, especially about the excess snot. 😄 Seriously, I didn’t know that. I have taken pseudoephedrine before but it jacks up my sleep if I take it too close to bed. But then again, I’m not sleeping as it is.

Also beware because there are sites that let you download videos from Youtube but they could have viruses so just be cautious and download an anti-virus or something.

This is more a minor complaint than anything, but whenever I watch a Youtube video and get an add for the mobile game Hero Wars.

For some reason, every ad for that game seems like its someone's fucking fetish.

In general also, I've begun to miss the days when sexuality was repressed. Fact is, what turns you on is highly personal, and one person's kink is another person's gross-out. So it made perfect sense that this stuff was kept in the bedroom and not showcased in public. But of course we've normalized all sorts of degeneracy these days and the guys running all the media empires feel like they need to shove their kinks in our faces now.
 
I have this annoying habit of accidentally repeating myself when writing a post. I will sometimes go back to a previous sentence to add another thought, and I accidentally repeat myself, because I forgot a certain phrase was in the previous sentence.

So if you've ever noticed that I do this, know that I'm aware of it.

HOLY SHIT SOMEONE FINALLY MENTIONED THIS
I hope the faggot who made that is captured by a cartel and beheaded.
It's genuinely disgusting and they just think of it as a joke for some reason.

There's a degree where they'll show you something relevant to your browsing history and then there's what they want to push to all the cattle no matter what. I still sometimes get stuff about cars and reggaeton even though i never in my life clicked anything of the sort, its just what they promote for anyone on the caribbean region. I fucking hate reggaeton.
