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

Can the gubbermint just decide something about permanent standard/daylight time already? Like, fuck, nobody knew what Juneteenth even was until it was 2 days away and they up and rushed it through being a holiday so fast that the day off threw a bunch of business off, but this clock shit everybody has an opinion about, most want to end it one way or another, and the gears of government grind to a standstill. Just do something about it already!

People who don't use turn signals when turning or changing lanes, or worse, not using turn signals when changing lanes and dangerously merging in right in front of you so you have to slam the brake so you don't crash into the retard.

Even better when the person you’re driving with isn’t using turning signals. Nigga, you’re asking for a death sentence.

I HATE the end of DST so much, like unbelievably so; it gets dark out by like 4:30 PM and it's fucking depressing already by that point because it's fucking freezing out. Just make DST permanent, and Marco Rubio keeps putting out bills to try to make DST permanent, but the worthless fucking niggers that run this godforsaken borderless hellscape we call a country refuse to put it through. But of course they'll keep sending billions to Israel.

I saw that box of sugarcubes has carbohydrates listed on it (it is 100 per 100grams ,duh) and it irked me, who even is dumb enough to not know sugarcubes are 100% sugar?

I don't care what time they pick as along as they pick ONE. But they can't even do that.

A kid asked me what time it was and I said, "A quarter past four". He replies saying, "No like, can you say what it is in numbers?".

It's not really annoying per se, but it does bother me in a concerned kinda way.

A lot of boomers will respond a quarter past when it's not. It'll be 4:35 and they'll say a quarter past. That grinds my gears.

One of the dumbest facts I've ever heard in my life that turned out to be true is that DST only exists because American cheap candy corporations bribed politicians into bending time itself just to sell more Halloween candy. I wish it were just another retarded myth, but I suppose it's just too stupid for someone to make up and expect anyone to believe.

The average sunrise at the equator (the actual center of our world) is ~06:00, that's where 00:00 should be, full stop. But no, our brilliant system says that a new day begins in the literal and figurative middle of the night. So much of our calendar is so fucking stupid, but at this point I'd settle for DST getting the axe.

Grown people who would be falling asleep, barely able to keep their eyes open, but will refuse to go to bed. This is behaviour that should have been grown out of by 10 years old, fuck off with this "I'm too tired to go to bed" bullshit.

Sometimes it's nice to kip on the lounge.
 
The fact that Spooktober is already more than halfway over is a bummer. Full as it's been, it always just feels like we've just scratched the surface. So many movies and specials to watch, so many pumpkin foods to cook, so many candies to make, so many DIY projects, so many events. I love it all and I hate for it to end.

I do hope that you all have been having fun that will only get better as All Hallow's Eve draws closer. It's the best time of year to have fun and I don't want people missing out. Keep is spooky, Kiwis.

“No SIM” error messages on my phone. These pop up every so often and it’s frustrating because there can be multiple causes. Usually the fix is either just powering my phone off and on again a few times or installing an update, but god I’m sick of seeing this shit.

May be carrier related.

I hate having to buy clothes online. Chances are they won't fit or they send you the wrong thing.
