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

[I Do Not Post]

Those sort of faggots who are probably <5% whatever kind of native, but go on about MUH HERITAGE and MUH CULTURE. They look like the whitest white to have ever been white, but sure, they're totally from the warraminjipinjipilli tribe. 100% believable.

Housetraining an easily distracted puppy. How hard is it to leave all the random rocks and bugs alone for a few minutes? It's raining, please take your shit and let's go play inside.

 

[Dam Dhara]

Modern games that only have certain languages depending on the region. I've been learning japanese for a few years and it just pisses me off that companies translate japanese games but don't let you play the game with its original text, usually only in english and maybe some other ones. You could argue it's for disk space but with modern platforms you could easily have every language options as optional downloads (Final Fantasy XVI thankfully does this). I'd rather pirate games than support these practices.

 

[Sugriva]

Mosquitos. The niggers of the insect world. My blood is not open source, and my legs are not an all-you-can-eat buffet, you winged faggots of death. I wish I could enlarge one to human size, cut off its head with a chainsaw, and leave it impaled on a pike in my yard as a warning to all those other bloodsucking NIGGERS.

I really fucking haaaaaaate when someone makes a videoooooooo and every sentence they saaaaayyyyyy is spoken like thiiiiiissssssss.

Those stupid climate change activists man, they are just insufferable. Why can't those retards just get off the damn road? And when someone attempts to "murder them", they still defend and pretend they did nothing wrong when they were on the damn road. I really wish a drunk driver would just run over these annoying cunts.

One of their main arguments is, "Well, they're protesters, they need to be an inconvenience for others so people care about the protest and for the higher-ups to be forced to do something about the problem", it's like no. No one's thinking of the problem when they see 6 faggots on the road blocking the way, they think of those 6 faggots and what their boss is going to tell them when they go to work late, and even if they did think about the problem, you really think they're going to be in support after you blocking their way?

I can also bet your ass that these climate activists have some shit in their house that's emitting greenhouse gases. Not a single of these people actually preach what they teach, they just want to be on the "good side" of history and get attention.

You know what else emits greenhouse gases. Blocking the road so cars are stuck in traffic and moving slowly or idling instead of going at a more efficient speed.

Also blocking an airport so planes have to turn around and go to a different airport, land, fuel up and then come back to the airport they're supposed to have landed at while adding significant time and fuel to the journey.

Farmers don't seem to put up with that very much, probably because there isn't a central dogma to begin with. Closest I've ever seen here is some men of a particular discontent with women expressing disdain at the influx of us broads and our nuisance opinions after getting booted from reddit and finding this place. But at least that was a real and noticable change, not just performative questioning.

There's a rule, or a guideline, written somewhere around here that essentially says: "If you're leaving this forum for good, just leave. No one is interested in why you're leaving, so stop making a big spectacle out of it."

People who do this are desperate for attention and want people to start paying attention to them. They want everyone to agree with their gripes, and tell them they feel the exact same way, beg them not to leave because things would be worse off if they weren't participating. It's a very narcissistic move. I was very pleased to see the warning, telling narcissists not to do it. I've seen people do shit like that on forums over the years and it never seemed to generate the disgust it should have in the user base.

Fully fucking agree there. I never understood how fucking over regular people in their regular lives is supposed to make them sympathetic to your cause. I mean if someone came and fucked with me trying to do my job or go to the shops, I immediately go to whatever the opposite of what they're supporting is.

I tried looking up something precise on Pornhub, but nowadays "male" means 50% pooners, and it recommends either them or gays.

 

[Inafune Fanfiction]

Ban-happy moderation staff. They often turn out to be some kind of mentally ill freak in a discord cabal responsible for the current state of any given site or platform. -and the enablers that act like they're some kind of modern day morally righteous saints.

God bless the farms for shedding a light on that crazymaking bullshit.

 

[Neighborhood Curmudgeon]

People who are only defined by their job and social life mildly irritate me. For example, besides some my coworkers, there are other people who happen to work for other departments in the same building who are nice people but they have very boring lives. They have no hobbies or interests whatsoever. Seriously. One such person I talk seems to wear this trait like a badge of honor. It also makes me feel sort of sad for them too because I get the impression their lives are empty. Another person I talk to only watches TV, cleans his apartment, and goes to work. Sometimes he watches Netflix.

I don't fault them for being lazy on their downtime. I do that too. However, other than just occasionally hanging out with people at places like pubs, parties, or concerts and watching TV or Netflix, they don't seem to have much else that interests them or anything else they like to do. Even when they have copious amounts of downtime, they don't have much to their lives besides going to work and hanging out.

I don't know why, but it just bothers me. It's their lives and they can do what they want, but I just can't imagine not having things to do outside of those very limited activities. It almost makes them seem like, dare I say, NPCs. Real life NPCs. They're not bad because of that, but it still seems very strange and a bit unnerving to me.

Are you even living in the same world as I am? Because I want nobody to know what I do in my private life. What I do other than what I am paid to do is none of your fucking business.

Redoing this reply:

I agree with you @AnOminous. What I mean is that my most of my coworkers, and the other people at my workplace, are nice people who want to visit with me, and I do talk to them; however, these conversations are boring because none of these people seem to like anything. I don't want to know their whole lives or want them to know all about me, but it would be nice to talk about something other than TV shows I don't watch or pubs, concerts, or other social events I never go to.

It's just frustrating having nothing interesting to talk with these people about. With that said, this is why I try to avoid having conversations at work as much as humanly possible. Sometimes, that's easier said than done though.

With all due respect, what business is that of yours? Most people would go to work TO work. Blending those two together can only invite conflict. With today's world, I'd rather live a "boring life" where I'm on a need to know basis and left alone than be known for some abstract thing. Besides, it's not like if every person you meet is an open book. That works both ways.

Good point.

I also go to work to work. But then sometimes something I dread happens: Required trainings and meetings! What happens before and in the middle of these required trainings and meetings? People at work like to visit and often want to get to know each other. Good intentions, but it often is awkward and frustrating for me because I have nothing in common with anyone at work. Again, they're nice people but I have little to nothing to discuss with them. I would like to, but I can't.

Then again, perhaps you and AnOminous are right. The problem is me. I'm an autistic weirdo.

 

[GothicGalLover]

I keep getting unsolicited """offers""" on my house by random phone numbers via text messages. Block and report + tell them to kill themselves but it keeps happening.
I hate these conniving fucks.

I get what you mean. I'm too much of a "edgelord", and I really don't bother to walk on glass shoes around normies that might be offended. I don't think it's your fault, or anyones really. They are more akin to NPC's and you would prefer to talk with an actual individual.

But I really can't see how these conversations can last that long, if you have nothing to discuss? Just say hi and the common sentences that mean nothing, and they're happy.

You'd be surprised. Here's the thing: Outside of trainings and meetings, I never have to worry about this. I just go to work, do my job, then go home. I love that! Normally, it's never an issue. I wouldn't care about this if upper management didn't have us attend trainings and meetings that have required in-person attendance. I love it when they're virtual because then it's a non-issue. But in person? People love to socialize. I wish just saying hi and talking about the weather was enough, but at least at my workplace most of the people who work there WANT to know each other.

I could try to be anti-social, but that wouldn't reflect well on me. I'm too old to act like that and it would just be straight up embarrassing.

And here's another thing: I'm just trying to make small talk. I don't want attention or anything like that. But when I'm in these forced social situations, it gets really awkward because in the process of getting to know each other, everyone likes to talk about what they like to do in their downtime. That's not bad, but I also don't have the same interests as these people. All the same, because I don't want any trouble, I try to encourage them to talk more about themselves. Even if I think they're boring. That's okay because it's not like we're required to be friends. To be very fair to them, I'm sure they think I'm boring too.

So thanks for hearing me out everyone. I regret bringing this up, but it was really bugging me.

In summary, I REALLY HATE mandatory trainings and meetings. Especially when they tend to be redundant, about stupid shit like DEI, or they're treated like social rather than professional events.

I feel the same way out of instinct. People just make it hard to connect for any meaningful reason. I generally don't bother.
