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

Only somewhat related, but this reminds me of my last job where my coworkers thought I was weird because I didn't like the idea of going skydiving.
Oh yes, the notion of jumping out of a Boeing plane with today's DEI hires as pilots and Chinese bug half wits making my lowest quality parachute sounds like the safest thing to do next to performing fellatio on a sig p320 while jumping on a trampoline.

Especially if that kind of trash is being advertised. Hey guys! We're blatantly lying to you but with a broader audience!
And you just know there's going to be thousands of retarded Americans who's going to give that app clicks and attention, because that's the main goal. Just go and mislead people deliberately and get attention, see how many dumbasses start seriously investing in you and profit!
A couple years ago, I spent what felt like an hour trying to explain to my mom that the commercial she saw for June's Journey or some similar "game" that made it look like it was some cartoon about the protag character solving some mystery about a haunted house wasn't, in fact, a show she could watch. "Mom, there isn't a show, they're trying to get you to download an app- " "I DON'T CARE ABOUT AN APP Where do I go to watch this show?!"

Imagine working in marketing, you get paid to deceive people that don't know better.

Whenever I see a famous older woman, I can't tell if they naturally look that good or if they just had plastic surgery.

The dispensers for shipping labels and receipts on the machines at UPS. You're supposed to pull them downward to tear them off, like aluminum foil, but that shit ain't sharp enough to work. I've been sending some packages lately, and every time I always rip up the bottom of the label or pull what would be the next label halfway out before getting it off. The only way to tear it off cleanly is to spend 30 seconds carefully tearing it a centimeter at a time.

Could be wrong, but the paper probably just isn’t perforated for clean tearing. I say that because my work’s shipping label printer does the exact same thing.

"But Syrup, the character technically survived on the show."

Nah, that ain’t it.
I threw it a curveball about the first Mission: Impossible movie: who made up the original IMF team? And get this, it claimed Emilio Estevez wasn’t in the film. I had to remind it that Coach Bombay was the guy who gave Tom Cruise exploding chewing gum. But ChatGPT just doubled down, saying I must be thinking of Jean Reno. Total bullshit.

The local government will talk high and low all about how I should dispose of my old car fluids like coolant via the proper recycling methods. Yet when it comes time for me to get rid of my old coolant, the recycling centre refuses to accept it because it's not on the one day a year they allow. And god forbid you might have something on that day, I guess you're just stuck keeping bottles of waste in your garage for another year.

Edit: I guess to put it more generally, you try to do the right thing, but they make it near on impossible to do.

The only thing anyone cares about is virtue signaling about doing the right thing.
 
People that always cry whataboutism when it comes to animal cruelty. That, or just some fucktarded bullshit to try, and excuse it.

Think puppy mills are fucked up? But you eat meat!

Think zoo animals shouldn't be just stuck in nothing, but shitty concrete cages? They have it so much worse in the wild because of X, Y, and Z!

Think sports like dog sledding, and greyhound racing should be better regulated to help prevent cruelty? How dare you try to stop them from doing something they're bred for?! Don't you know it makes them happy?!

It's just so tiresome.
 
I don't understand the 'trend' exactly, but you can look at basically any YouTube video, Instagram post, and likely anything else on other social media websites, and there'll be some low IQ goober (usually some brown or black subhuman from the third world) saying 'this is AI.'

It's not funny, it's not entertaining, and I don't even get what they're trying to provoke by saying that. All it does is make me irrationally angry at someone being so mentally disabled.

An example might be the roof of Rouen cathedral, going into the detail on the carvings, carpentry work and whatnot, and Abdullah bin Shitstain will say ' I think this is AI ??'

Kill yourself.
 
recycling
Recycling grinds my gears because I found out it was a scam introduced to place the blame of excess production on the consumer.
Plastic with products in general pisses me off. Resealable plastic bags for one-and-done food items? Microwaveable plastic bags? Those shitty plastic tabs on everything that just fly off and disappear? Fuck off, China. Give me a paper bag or a box or something.
