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

[McMitch]

Using cell phones at work is usually annoying. Great, I have to enter a couple security codes and hope I can receive some MMS messages.

The last pizza place I delivered for had an app for tipping/signing for the order of a credit card were used, I ironically rolling this out during Covid. The only reason I tolerated this was because I was delivering in an upper-middle-class white neighborhood, and even then there were apartment complexes I would refuse to use it for (‘cause the city needs to spread section 8 housing out to where it doesn’t belong).

Politics.

I was complaining about dumb bullshit in my own country and the person I was talking to was like "Yeah blah blah Luigi. Yeah blah blah Trump"

I am not American. I don't want to hear about fucking trump when I'm complaining about my government in my country. I cannot even begin to fathom any of that shit and don't tell me that "every country has its trump"

Yeah well fuck you he's not the first hated politician to exist and he won't be the fucking last and the issues plaguing my country has existed for decades so go fuck yourself. I don't want to hear about Trump, you fucking Cunt. This shit has nothing to do with him.

I'm so fucking over it, dude.

A lot of normies have no frame of reference other than shitty pop culture so they think Trump is some sort of nameless ancient ultimate evil like Voldermort or Sauron or something when he's just a normal elected guy in a suit.

Heaven forbid I fucking worry about my country and not dedicate my very worldview to Trump.

Sure issues that began here in 2007 is trump's fault somehow. Yeah we had our own trump almost a decade before he become president. Totally!!!!

Omfg I can't with these people.

The discourse has been profoundly gay for a long time but every time the government slips on a banana peel or sets another pile of money on fire, your feed gets instantly replaced with gender war TikTok edits and AI-generated 1488 slop. Like clockwork. Dig into it a little and it’s either fake, or overblown.

But good luck talking about real things, like how corporate food science made everyone gain 30 pounds or who actually bankrolled Wahhabism. The noise has made actual conversation extinct.

Good luck talking about another country. Everyone across this globe is so brainrotted, it's frustrating.

What's that? The government wants to cut 60k jobs and replace them with AI, yet also make getting work for those people more difficult because they now want to make it easier to import pajeets for cheap labor, thus fucking the job market while underfunding Healthcare that's buckling under its own weight from years of neglect?

Whatever, anyway, Trump? Have you Trumped today?

No I have not and if you ask me about it, I'll shove a Trump-et up your ass sideways.

One of my friends told me a few months ago she wanted to surprise her boyfriend with lingerie on his birthday so she went online and bought some.

She said the second she got the "order confirmed" popup she started getting flooded with adverts and recommendations for t shirts, coffee mugs, flags ect with slogans like "I choose the bear," "I drink male tears," "I'm over boys" shit like that.

She's never ordered any similar products, gender war shit is just so ubiquitous that the algorithm just assumes if you have a vagina you must absolutely despise men.

That's pretty fucked.

When someone dips their finger into the sauce to do a "taste test" when they think no one else is looking. It's nasty

 

[pyrinyx]

When autists and redditors melt the fuck down and reeeeeeeeeeeeee! When asked "so why do you want to work here?" In a job interview.

The correct answer is "because I aspire to work in x field and this position would be an ideal place to learn/master the skills to do so."

Cmon guys I'm a huge autist and even I can pretend to be human for five seconds and answer the fucking question without sperging out and having a soy meltdown.

Of course the real answer is money but you're supposed to lie and play the game.

My favorites are the ones who go on a spiel and go on a pretentious speech thinking they've said some of the most wisest shit that they ever thought. Anyone who runs job interviews know exactly why you'd want a job, it is not a mystery. They know you're there for money, an income and some financial stability. But what they want to hear is what they think fits the ideal company values.

It is the same people who freak out over test exams. I don't know about anyone, but I loved it when I was in school, gave me something to do and learn shit through it. I wouldn't have sweat a drop if I was in college and I had to deal with final exams. It would at least be telling the institution that I'm trying and I learned what was put infront of me to care enough to ace the exam. Anyone who has a mental meltdown over final exam, spent most of their time jerking off to furry porn and smoking weed. Any story that they tell anyone about how they were a deadbeat and still got great degrees and high paying jobs is a bullshitter.

I sure these types of people are everywhere, but the sheer number of Canadians in particular that I've noticed make up so much of the most ardent TDS sufferers on the internet is bordering on pathetic.

Couple more that have probably been mentioned before, but here we go again.

---

1.

Companies assuming that they can send you SMS (text) messages. I cannot even call around for information about something with apparently agreeing to be put on a list.

They just say to, "unsubscribe if you don't want to keep receiving messages," but then you're giving away that the number provided is active and a mobile phone number.

Folks, do you really need to be that connected to your gas station? Parking garage?

Car dealer you never purchased anything from?

Apartment complex you never lived at?

The answer is, "no."

Please stop just accepting this is as normal and push back a little. Refuse to sign up for services or start blocking your number.

---

2.

MFA (multi-factor authentication) on everything is another.

Thanks, (random, non-critical business), but my bank will let me know if any unusual transactions are happening on my account and if someone is accessing this account, I probably have bigger issues to deal with.

When someone dips their finger into the sauce to do a "taste test" when they think no one else is looking. It's nasty

I work as a cook and this absolute mong of a boomer had the forethought to grab a spoon to do a taste test (an essential part of batch cooking) but the retarded fuck dipped it again and held it out for me to try from his hand. I'm typically quite congenial IRL but "What the actual fuck is wrong with you" escaped my lips.
I take very few things seriously but the safety of my product is definitely one of them, also the weird as fuck idea that I want to taste something off a licked spoon held by another man. Never trust an old man, they have like 2% of the testosterone as a normal male and are very likely on some dl sus shit

The elderly.

There are several reasons why, but it mainly just boils down to "there's way, way too many of them, and they're taking up resources that the younger generations desperately need".

Death of the author. The creator of the story knows about the characters/setting they created from their own mind inside and out, therefore their interpretation is infinitely more valid than some arrogant redditor who will jump to the contradictory concept of "media literacy" when their cope falls apart.

It ruled watching a bunch of geezers shuffle out in walkers to vote down Medicare for All, now they get to sit there stunned as their own Medicare gets means-tested into oblivion.

Dear performing autists, most common clip frames clip inward and standalone display cases have frames, so leave some goddamn margins. I'm not fixing that shit.

[Brain Power]

I'm tired of the "dude latam is such a shithole amirite get me out of here lemao bunch of failed ex-countries haha" meme. Considering the current state of "1st world", I prefer it here. Most of the shittiest decisions governments have been taking is because they're trying to imitate so-called developed countries anyway.

 

[Rick The Stick]

Quit trying to force a "helper" on me. I don't fucking need some faggot who can't wipe his ass without asking me how to do it every single time. I dont need some cunt who's going to just eat through material even faster, leaving us with even worse bottlenecks than we already run into.

The issue is the fucking suppliers we buy from, and our in-house fab fuckers. All I need, if "help" is what you're trying to do, is for you dumb cocksuckers to triple my material orders and to hire some more goddamn machinists.
But noooo. Everything will magically be fixed if we get Sticky a helper and nothing else.

Fuckin kill me.

 

[pippy]

People who are always on social media and expect you to care when some nigger who played a side character 35 years ago dies, or they get upset when you won't engage in political talk. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHAT CUNTS ON TWITTER ARE SAYING
I'm so sick of social media culture war engagement bait garbage

also people who litter or don't bring carts back are subhuman

 

[Señora Airi]

Dear stupid reddit asshole smarmy atheist fucks who keep invoking "blessed are the poor" and similar verses to justify flooding my country with third world rapists.

Jesus did not mean materially poor, he is referring to people who are spiritually poor aka those with wounded hearts and souls.

Thanks for proving you never read the Bible morons.

I mean you could bring up 1 Timothy 5:8

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. - 1 Timothy 5:8

But of course they'll use the "well I dont believe" excuse anyway.

As for my tax: retail workers. I feel like a curmudgeon complaining, but I was having problems with my car. I'm not a car guy. I went to the auto parts store (maybe someone might know) - not only did the guy at the register not know, but he couldn't even give me a recommendation on any auto repair shops. I did research (luckily it was a quick fix), but this is the 2nd time I've had this experience.

Also, I hate how my computer just freezes up 2 minutes into booting up Linux. I've tried both Mint (which I'm used to - had it on my old laptop), and got recommended Lubuntu by a friend (before the feature of the sex abuser was posted).
