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

This is incredibly petty, but all these fitness fucks who decide to fill up the national parks and state forests. I'm out here trying to enjoy a day in the bush, looking for birds and other wildlife to photograph, but an endless supply of half-dressed sweaty plebs keep barging past, being noisy and and scaring away any wildlife. Don't you have fucking gyms and shit for this?

It's so frustrating constantly being told that you're 'ignoring' people or 'too slow at replying' when in reality, sometimes I just don't feel like speaking to people. Or don't want to sit glued to my phone.
I also cant stand it when people interpret the lack of an immediate response as being disinterested or too slow. Never mind people may be busy or have reasons for the delay or they briefly stepped away to get a glass of water or do whatever.

It's also frustrating when people are logged into their social media/messaging platforms but respond with "Can't talk right now, I'm at work/school/wherever." Why be logged in at work, school, etc. when you know you can't or won't accept messages? I miss the days when people being logged in and marked available were truly available because they were sitting in front of their device.
 
You ever grabbed something only to immediately misplace it within seconds? Where did it go? I hate that shit.

Sometimes it'll show you're online but the app is not open. Ghost status, that's tedious. Or they're avoiding you.

On that note I hate when people try to start a text based conversation by just sending a "Hi" or "Hi [name]" and then expect you to respond instead of just telling you what they want to fucking tell you in the first place
 
I fucking hate WebP for being a terrible image type. I can't upload WebP files to many websites because they are unsupported. I can't even use image preview either, so they just show up as generic icons in the file manager instead of the pictures themselves. Fuck WebP. I always end up copying the pictures, pasting them in MS Paint/KolourPaint, and then save it as a superior PNG picture instead.
 
People in my neighborhood who want to park their decrepit RV on their lawn or behind my house. I don't want to look at this trailer park shit in a million dollar neighborhood when I'm out on the deck reading the Farms. Got some nice bird action at the feeder. Some flowers and vegetation still looking good despite the limited daylight hours, but in my line of sight there's a moldy Minnie Winnie with a caving roof and a bunch of bleached bumper stickers. Pay your fucking lot fee or take that piece of shit to the junkyard.

On top of that, add in the War on Noticing. "Leave other people alone!" "It's literally not affecting you!" "That's discrimination!" God, I'd move into the woods, but around here you're even more likely to have a tacky ass neighbor with multiple run down RVs on his property if you're in the woods.

The gyms are for asian fucks to do 3 curls with 25 pounds then flex at.
 
I fucking hate manchildren who won't fucking do anything for themselves and boss everybody around. Fuck those pampered manbabies.
I like helping people so I have experiences a lot of annoyance from people just like this, unable to do anything but you better do it right. I hate to say (because I like helping people) that I don't suffer these fools anymore.

People that reduce any amount of creativity or abstraction to "dude they must have been so high when they thought of this". Just because you need drugs to come up with an original thought doesn't meant other people are as pathetic.
And all the stuff that's legit cool AND the creator was high? Well let's just say my high school lab partner's weed-induced edgy doodles ain't got nothing on the Dumbo dream sequence.

In other words, talent is talent and a lot of practice.
