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

Wind chimes. If one person in the neighborhood has one wind chime, the occasional tinkle of chimes on a relatively still day can be soothing. On windy days, even one wind chime becomes an annoying source of noise pollution. If every old lady in your neighborhood owns multiple wind chimes each, every slight breeze brings with it an ungodly cacophony of tinkling, dinging, pinging, rattling noise that's nearly impossible to tune out. I want to open my windows on a nice day and air the place out, but if I do that, I can't hear myself think over the fucking wind chimes.

This dumb motherfucking son of a bitch I just nearly had a road rage incident with. He decided to park his shitty pickup in the middle of the goddamn road. There were plenty of other places to park, like the goddamn parking lot ten feet away from the stupid bastard.

So I see this stupid bastard, blocking my right of way, and just calmly stop there. For a full minute. This stupid motherfucker actually looks at me, does nothing. Finally I start honking. The prick moves his shitbox vehicle, and I would have let this whole thing slide, but he just had to give me a nasty look while doing it, as if I was the asshole. You are the fucking prick blocking a public thoroughfare.

So I rolled down the window just so I could stick my arm out as far as it could go and give him the bird, while yelling FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!

It made me feel better at least. I'm honestly still mad about it. I expect this kind of bullshit in cities, people here are usually much more polite.

I personally find it quite charming hearing a mid-westerner say "Alright folks" or "Okie dokie folks".

When approaching a group of people I usually will just say 'Folks' because that's what I grew up saying. Depends on the context. Mind you I also don't sprinkle black-isms like most people do online.
 
Every time YouTube makes a design change it's always for the worse. Always less information, more clutter. It's baffling. And I could forgive all that if their search algo weren't, with no exaggeration, the worst of its kind on the whole fucking web. That one's a double whammy because it used to work great and they went out of their way to break it.

They recently just outright removed the option to sort videos by oldest first. That's how desperate these cunts are to make us into mindless consoomers of just the newest bullshit and nothing else. Now it's such a goddamn pain in my ass when I'm watching a channel from start to finish when the channel has a massive vidlog that goes well into the hundreds. Oh and it gets even better. I just found out yesterday that it seems as though they've disabled the use of the down arrow key to scroll down on a channel's videos page, so I can no longer just hold that key down and wait to get to the beginning. When the videos page gets reloaded for whatever reason, it's so annoying.

Youtube's desperation to control our media consumption is pissing me off more and more on a very regular basis.

That's one thing that inspired this post, yeah. The other was opening a channel's video tab and finding this:

Three columns. Three. Buttfucking. Columns. In desktop mode. Look at all that empty space. And like you said all the sorting options are gone now so get to scrolling you fucking drone, you thing.

People who are *already* late, then call and say they'll "just be a few minutes late!"
Bitch you're already twenty minutes late and you're really calling me to say "tee hee you'll be here a little late, just a few minutes!"

She ended up getting here almost an hour late. I'm livid.

My employer is making me do my actual job today, which cuts into my goofing off time, but that's not the bad part.

I sold some crap on ebay, it's big enough it needs to ship UPS and I can't get away to drive into town before they close. So I paid for a pick-up. $27... $13 for the pick-up($8+ $5 same day surcharge) plus $4 for fuel, $5 because I don't live in the city and $5 more because I REALLY don't live in the city. Oh well, at least the sales price of the junk justifies it.

The fat acceptance movement is one of the biggest copes I've ever seem, The copium is on a whole other level.

Being a fatass is not simply a matter of physical appearance, it's actively killing you. It's seriously unhealthy, you fucking retard.

Even if it somehow was only related to your physical appearance, it's still terrible. When I look at you, all I see is fat and it's disgusting. It tells me that you don't take care of yourself and you're not worth my time. At the end of the day, you're a gluttonous shithead.

I want to jump in on this.

Fat acceptance is a good concept. Just because someone is fat, doesn't mean they need to be publicly shat on most times. 8/10 times, we get it. We're fat, we're working on it. On this level, I'm down with fat acceptance. Similarly, a fat fuck isn't always an unhappy one. Be it because they are legitimately a glutton, or (and fuck all of you fat faggots for ruining this term) genetics fucked them hard*. And for those fat fucks that just shrug and go 'yeah, I'm fat, and I'm gonna die 30 years before my time. But I don't give a fuck, I'm happy.' Good for them.

But much like any decent idea, it's corrupted by fucking morons. It's turned from 'fat people aren't a side show.' to '1000lbs life is a goal!' No, you fat bitch, you shouldn't be on a billboard. No, you tub of lard, theme park rides don't have to accommodate your triple-wide ass. If you're fat, you're fat. Accept it, and shut the fuck up, or get off your ass and lose it.

Personally, I blame niggers. All of these dipshits 'I WANTZ ME A PHAT AZZ WHYTE GURL!' spread like ebola, and fat bitches started thinking they were hot, and as any woman who thinks she's hot, demanded more attention. And since niggers get everything handed to them, they got it.

*: I need to point out that this is not an excuse, you fat fuckers. Yes, it is a fact that a genetic pre-disposition to a lower metabolism rate, or a higher rate of belly fat does exist. That does not mean 'genetics' are slapping the dumbell out of your hand. It just means you have to work harder. Trust me, I fucking know.
Related to the above, people using 'Thicc' to mean 'fat ass'.

A thick ass is not fat. A thick ass has bounce, but enough tone and shape to be slappable. A thick ass makes a nice satisfying crack when slapped, and bounces maybe once. A fat ass doesn't make any noise, because, like a thick bag of tapioca, it's just absorbed the blow, and is currently absorbing your hand into it's congealing mass.

Also, when they misuse "curvy." Curves are attractive, obesity is not.
Most curves you have to work for to show off properly. With fat, you don't have to work at all.

I notice that it saves where i am at in the video completely at random. Sometimes i open my browser and the video is just where i left off last time i opened it but for some videos it never does and i completely loose track of where i was. I thought they at least had this figured out.
