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

Got caught behind a tow truck that assumed it could just go for 10 miles 20 miles under the speed limit without making way because it had its amber lights on.

THE AMBER LIGHTS ARE TO WARN TRAFFIC YOU ARE MOVING SLOW. ITS NOT AN EXCEPTION TO BREAK THE LAW AND IMPEDE TRAFFIC DESPITE NUMEROUS FUCKING OPTIONS TO PULL TO THE SIDE AND LET EVERYONE PASS YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE.
 
The only reason I still post here because it’s the last website where nobody is like, “I’m 20 years old is my life over because a girl said I’m nice but...?”

They’re like, “How do I start a conversation?” They’re asking anonymous crackheads with anime avatars for life advice. "Have you considered becoming a high-stakes poker player" or "go fuck an escort”.

You’ve just described the genre. “This restaurant serves food.”

I just watch Matlock, the leads are fine. Kathy Bates and Skye Marshall (her name sounds like a fake Liam Neeson movie) are doing laps around these people. Everyone else is so bad they should Thanos-snap the cast.

When people say, "rip" rather than "R" "I" "P." Do they not know it stands for something, or is saying 3 letters just too much time?

I don't know why the very insane bad takes rampant on The Farms don't bother me, I really don't. Maybe it's because they really aren't that different than those opinions of an otherwise very lovable relative of mine. Whatever it is, it's more digestible than whatever the hell is going on elsewhere on the internet. At least I can complain here about bicyclists or homeless or getting old without someone insinuating that I'm problematic. Here, the same guy who gave me a tophat or garbage can will reply to something else to commiserate.

Thread tax: my usual freeway exit comes after a major downhill portion and the exit itself quickly loses further elevation. My poor brakes. And I hate the assholes behind me who aren't really thinking about theirs.

Kim K’s influence on fashion a decade ago is undeniable but she's at the end of the line. At this point it feels like inertia. She’s on TV for the same reason The Simpsons is still on TV.

Yes, I know about trashy reality television and how addictive it is, lol, I lived through Tila Tequila's shows.

Anyway:

Every time when I'm doing work on my computer and it freezes for the umpteenth time and I have to force a log out and start over again, I end up wanting to throw this damn thing through my window.
 
What if there was an unholy 5th season that was even worse than winter? ❄️

>it could be called cocytus (after the frozen lowest circle of hell from Divina Commedia by Dante Alighieri)
>the first month of cocytus is Smarch the 13th month (Simpsons reference)
>the second month of cocytus is Smapril the 14th month
>the third month of cocytus is Smay the 15th month
>during cocytus it is even colder and darker than normal winter
>arctic-like conditions in Western Europe and New England
>in Smarch the days get even shorter than at the December solstice
>in Smapril the days get even shorter still until around mid-Smapril
>at mid-Smapril there is super solstice
>then the days get longer again until the end of cocytus
>no major holidays to be celebrated
>at the end of cocytus is New Years
>cocytus ends with regular winter starting with another winter solstice
>then it is winter for 3 more months

Fall and winter suck ass (especially winter), but at least this world isn't that bad.

My elderly mother is getting more forgetful and it's no fun. Trying to remind her what I said to her yesterday again and again. Ugh

Also, I really want to visit a new country in the next 12 months, but with my finances being dog shit and having to deal with mum, I don't think it will happen.

I'm at the point I want to get a dry erase board for mine to write down the important pending to-do items and other important details because of how frustrating it is for her to forget various items.

I'd love to visit a couple of people I know who live in other countries but current logistics and finances all but ensure it won't happen any time soon if at all.

For whatever reason, my home office PC entering sleep/hibernation mode disconnects it from my network drives. This grinds my gears because it means I can't save anything left unsaved before the computer idles and any open programs run off the network freeze or abnormally terminate.
 
Artificial computer generated shit on YouTube thumbnails is my current annoyance.
I think YT is doing something copyright flavored about using people's images in videos? It's probably stupid, whatever is it.
If I see an image that doesn't match the video title, I think to myself, "That isn't a legit video" and I don't watch it.
I guess the bots can have fun clicking each other.

Bonus crankiness-
Ever look up how much iron a person is supposed to have per day, then look at the amount in most iron supplements?
For extra fun, look up what too much iron does to the intestines.
