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

People who try to apply modern day values (for better or worse) to people/art that existed in the past.

You like reading Lovecraft? Hurr Durr! He was a racist dude! You a racist also? It's problematic circulating his stories still!

Like a few Beatles songs? Durrrr!!! John Lennon was a shitty husband and father! How can you support someone like him!

Usually these re.tards get basic info wrong and spread misinformation to other re.tards as well. Mark Twain was a slaveowner and racist! A huge racist!!! REEEEE! Get annoyed and ask if they've ever read Huck Finn or even know one thing about Twain, their response is "but...but...he had Huck say nigger! That means he's a racist!"

I don't mind ignorant people. All that means is you don't have the knowledge of something but are willing to be taught. We're all ignorant on some degree. I fucking DESPISE stupid/willfully ignorant people.
Notice how they only use this "logic" on white men. They sure wouldn't use it on Mohammad, Margret Salinger, etc...
 
People that feel entitled to you bending the rules for them.

No, Karen, I'm not going to ignore the rule that it has to have been 48 hours since vaccinations to give your dog a bath, especially since you've been a bitch ever since you walked in here. If you were a regular who tipped well we might be able to work something out, but I can tell just from our three minutes of interaction that you're the type of bitch that if you find something wrong with my work, you'll use the fact that I did you a favor to fuck me over.

Basically the more somebody wants me to go out of my way (and put my job at risk) to help them, the less inclined I am to actually do it.
 
Forum sites with power-hungry mods and admins, I think that might be one of the few problems that will piss me off. where the admin has such shitty opinions about politics, gender, etc., belittles his own moderators, kicks and bans people who dare to disagree with his decisions, and lets his bootlickers ignore the rules.

In my experience, the guy/guys one rung down from the top are always many leagues worse than anyone above or below them

Yeah petty tyrants tend to be the most tyrannical. It's like a manager at a retail place, so many of those idiots have such high opinions of themselves. "Explaining" to customers why they're wrong not to know some dumb store policy... It said buy one get one free and I just wanted the free one asshole, how was I supposed to know you consider that "stealing"?
 
Everything about vaping. I mean yeah, cigarettes are much worse and I'm glad people are getting off of them (though it does feel like someone wished for this on a monkey's paw), but it's still aggravating when you're around someone who vapes constantly and that weird-ass smell gets all over your stuff. Or when you're on the phone with them and they decide to huff on the thing right there, giving your ear a blast of white noise in the process.

People named Karen.

I'm fucking serious. Every Karen I've ever had to interact with in a professional capacity? Cunt. At first I was like "just coincidence" but according to friends apparently having the name "Karen" is like some kind of eldritch curse that turns the bearer into an insufferable bitch. What the actual fuck.
 
Bits of transparent zip ties on the floor when I'm pulling a pallet jack. Fuckers are stealth shoulder dislocators.
WHO WOULD WIN: A loaded pallet jack carrying nearly half a ton of boxed, palleted merch with big hard rubberized wheels

OR

A stupid fucking zip-tie made from shitty plastic from China

Or even better, when some shitty fucking pallet splinters off and get stucks under the wheel. Or if your job has old ass concrete floors that have tons of holes in them and you get stuck. Bonus points if you have to get an electric pallet jack to come and pull you out.
 
Allergies. I've been woken up by a sinus headache for the past four days, and it's driving me crazy.
Fuck histamines man. Fuck them up the ass with a 20-inch unlubricated dildo.

This also works for Sherry.
 
...My point was (and it seems you agree with me) is that people who can't seperate the artist from their work...
ok, so not separating Lennon from his work, you get things like this from Imagine, "Imagine no possessions...Sharing everything..." and then you get his wealth at the time of his death in 1980, 200-250 million and his apartment full of possessions at the Dakota, which was built to cater to well-to-do people. What do you call a person who says one thing and practices another? Hypocrite.
Yeah, hypocrites piss me off.

Or you could just enjoy a song without being an exceptional sperg about it.

Black Sabbath had a song about an occultist getting dragged down to hell. Guess that means the evangelicals were right all along and Ozzy really is a pawn of the devil. What a hypocrite right?

Ice T wrote Cop Killer, if someone listens to that, it certainly just couldn't be they enjoy the song and nothing more. They must advocate murdering officers. Won't someone PLEASE think of the children!?

Speaking of pallet jacks

When people keep telling you "just use a hand jack" to load 800 pounds of product sideways uphill, because the electric jack won't fit sideways and they can't be bothered to remember the trailer only holds 22 pallets until an hour before you need to be on the road
