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

You're also making them lock things up behind glass, which makes people with money not want to shop there anymore because nobody wants to wait 30 minutes for someone who works there to come and unlock the glass so they can buy their razor blades.

My Walmart locks up all of the Legos and sex products. My Kroger only locks up the extra large condoms. It's weird what people will steal.
 
Beauty, just like the whole topic of it is annoying nowadays. There's two sides to this, there's the hyper beauty and the anti beauty. The hyper beauty is concerned with making pre-teen girls worry about thigh gaps and makeup and waistlines. Making it that you have to look like a buff/sexy model to be allowed to even exist, regardless if you plan to date or marry or not. Then there's the anti beauty that wants to fight the hyper beauty, but that's literally the problem. The hyper beauty is dumb, it's retarded, there's no reason to fight it cause it's not worth your time. You just ignore it, but the anti beauty won't, they'll whine and whine in article upon article about toxic beauty standards and how it needs to stooooooooooop stoooooooooop :( As if they can't literally just plug their ears.

I mean, I'm not dumb, the hyper beauty is genuinely harmful. I knew a lot of chubby kids who got bullied for it and you meet them again in high school and they're emaciated, thinning hair, and they're constantly fainting in class. But I rather see this as a sign that we need to stop giving kids the internet and also grow them up with confidence so if they get called braceface in school they don't run home crying trying to tear out their teeth with pliers.

This is by far my biggest gear grinder. Assholes who can’t drive. Assholes who deliver shitty customer service. Assholes who treat everything that doesn’t go their way as a personal affront.

The whole “if you run into an asshole once, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you’re the asshole” quote existed in the time before social media rotted everyone’s brain.

I am a dude and always thought that the worst luck is being born and growing up as a super-attractive woman. Not just cute or hot; like a 9+ on a 10-point scale.

Sure, its probably an amazing time sometimes, but dudes (not me) start getting really creepy around adolescent girls and, if she survives that part unscathed, her early- to mid-adulthood is going to be rife with almost celebrity-like treatment where everyone is falling over to help you, fuck you, scam you, or all three. while gaining no real life skills because you got by on looks, so your later life is a bit harder as more and more people leave you behind or die.

Thankfully, I'm an average dude, so I don't have to carry that burden.

I think the Internet is okay in moderation. But, without parents that give even the slightest shit, that's a tall order. Can't have kids growing up in an internet based world without being somewhat familiar with how to use it.

Thread tax - Politicians using kids as scapegoats to track you even further via all these ID verification initiatives.

Folks, politicians don't give a fuck about your kids; just that you have some. Stop blindly following them just because they say so.

Also, if something is being introduced to "protect you and your family," definitely run for the hills (but not before voting it down, first).

Finding a good stock image that you'd like to use for something of a project or for personal use. Then finding out it's from assholes like Adobe Stock or Shutterstock. I attest that these are some of the most parasitic services around. They charge absurd amounts of money just to even have the image or to have it licensed. Yeah, I have $65 laying around just to use one fucking image.

Or pay your aurtist friend to make you what you need using IRL shit like a camera or crayons. Mark my words - this gen AI will turn to such cum-glazed mush in terms of style that business will beg artists to properly make their brands' imagery again.

Pretty sure couple or even a dozen fuckwits who steal creamer and frozen nuggets won't raise much of a concern for a corpo like Wally. $500 of loss is nothing to their insurance policy to lock a problem behind bars for a long ass time. I agree with leaving dozens of nearly worthless people out of a job, but if you could only qualify to push shopping carts at a Wally - you're your own bigger problem than poverty-level employer.

I've personally been to odds and ends where the gas station and always-understaffed Dollar General make up the town hall, but nor that gas station nor DG with 2 clocked employees ever provided for the whole zip code of say 100 people and they all figured shit out or rightfully sit on unemployment (but that keeps em off drugs and on absolute pennies for canned beans, so I'm not mad at that eating some of my tax money).

Thread tax - and ALL those brokie-wokeys have that unlimited internet phone plan with a fucking "smart" phone which can allow them to blog, vlog, or outright learn some marketable skill and thus NOT have to depend on shit corporate mercy of the blue and yellow concrete overlord 20 miles away they can't reach without a car or a bus anyway.

Fuck them and their pet graphic artists. When they had no competition from AI at all, they saw fit to inflict this kind of shit on us.

Is it any wonder that normies started flocking to AI as an escape?

You know what grinds my gears? People thinking they have exclusive ownership of the term “art.” I’m sorry, when I live in a world where PissChrist and Banana Duct Taped to a Wall get glazed as *A*R*T*, then artists can go fuck themselves. Which is, of course, not to actually defend AI art. I’m just happy it’s making these faggots nervous. If was all fine and good when it would make Bob down at the auto plant unemployed, but now it’s threatening Lilith’s job making new “dads are fucking retards” card designs for Mother’s Day!

When your corpo client either doesn't care or worse yet tells you to draw in that family friendly African style.....you luck out and get paid 5 figures for slop.
 
Bicyclists. Spring is here, and while I very enthusiastically welcome it after a very long and gloomy winter-even by New England standards-now those assholes are out and about and resuming their time-honored tradition of being obnoxious cunts who flout the rules of the road.

Literally need a fucking ordinance to put all of em on sidewalks, if during certain hours and in certain areas that lack lanes for em, or something. Putting them in with cars is literally bad for paint, mirrors, and potentially getting suit by an egg that decided bumping into a stone is a good idea.

The problem is where there's no sidewalks or shoulders and they decide they want to crawl up the hill on the fun curvy road near me at 5 MPH. I know you fucks didn't bike out here, you drove your luxury cars out, parked at the parking lot and are now fucking up traffic for the locals. Stay home in the city and use the damn bike lanes you bitch about needing all the time.
 
How Twitter screenshots have fucked up the chronological way shit is read. It uses to be something like top to bottom, or less ideally bottom to top; these made sense at least. Now that everything is some fucking twitter nonsense, you start in the middle, then go to the top, then to the bottom. Its fucking retarded.
 
I hate interacting with people at the office. There's an epidemic of main character syndrome, they don't take into account the struggles of different departments and their actual job is secondary to social interaction and status.

I'm just glad AI art is making a lot of low-effort artists tremble as well. You just know in time, that they will normalize AI art the same way they normalize pretentious bullshit like Banana Duct Taped to a Wall. It's just going to be slower and we'll have to wait until the screechers who defend said pretentious bullshit art to die off so that acceptance can come sooner.

Then we're just going to see a lot of e-dick measuring contests between whose vision is more 'artistic' than another's. Then we can just conclude that humankind is officially bored, out of ideas and we're waiting for anything to take us out.

Get real jobs already, faggots. Your time of getting off of scamming people (who deserve to be scammed if the underlying intention was to scam people out of money over this kind of "art") are numbered.

I'd rather have every artist anyone thinks is lazy or overblown make a million dollars a day than for AI art to be normalized or otherwise to lose actual art to AI.

Low-effort art is either for the purpose of money laundering or gay retards trying to get attention and those grind my gears because it absolutely works.
