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

[Chin of Campbell]

"fapping to loli is pedophilia"

meanwhile..

"Fapping to traps isnt gay"

top is true and bottom is denial but both is fake and overgeneralizing just to feel like your fetish is justified.

The final word on traps has been set in stone for a while.

 

[AnOminous]

Every person in my neighborhood who takes a shopping cart from the store and leaves it on the sidewalk. Just take the cart back.

What also pisses me off is carts that now have devices that lock the wheels when you get too far from the store because of these dumb assholes. And even with those you'll still see discarded carts blocks away because stubborn fuckheads force the carts anyway.

Potential employers who say "We'll be in touch" or something similar but don't follow through. The radio silence is really appreciated.

Just do your fucking job and tell me i don't have the job

no one cares that your a "kind soul" and don't do that sort of thing

You're watching an HBO series. You're into the plot, watching a thoughtfully scripted scene illuminate a character you've grown fond of when all of a sudden....

Spoiler

SMASH CUT TO VISUALLY REPULSIVE SEX SCENE.

They do this in every fucking show on the network.

Before internets, HBO shows were a big deal because they played lewd uncensored shit that you'd never see on a major network. The swears, gore and ass were a successful formula for a long time. It hooked people long enough to get them into the story. However... lewds don't matter for shit in this modern world, do they? So why have contemporary shows continued this tradition?

IMO these shows are using sex scenes as a dollar store emotional palette cleanser because they're staffed by shitty writers. To be more specific, these writers aren't able to fashion a smooth emotional segue between two scenes. They cut to ugly sex because the sheer incongruity between engaging exposition and straight up fucking makes the choice seem intentional.

TLDR - HBO shows like to drop grimy looking fuck scenes on you between scenes to cover up the fact that their show is little more than a 1980's soap opera with tiddies and gore.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

Whatever you call conversations like this.

"Bunny Tracks, can you give me money for cigarettes?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Okay."

-not even ten minutes later-

"Bunny Tracks, I'm not mad, but why won't give me money for cigarettes?"

"Because smoking is bad for you."

"But I need money for a car."

"...what does that have to with anything?"

"..."

"I'm not giving you money for cigarettes."

"I don't need your money. I have money." *slams door*

On that note, I hate smoking in general.

 

[Kacho]

Anything made out of turkey that isn't supposed to be. Turkey sausage, turkey bacon, turkey chili. It's all bland disgusting garbage. Just eat the thing you want to eat or don't. I don't see what's being accomplished by forcing yourself to eat a knock off that tastes nothing like the real thing and in fact tastes awful. Why waste the money on bad food? An actual turkey sandwich would taste better than any of this shit, so why not just eat that to begin with if you're so concerned about fat? This really aggravates me, as far as I'm concerned the whole turkey/chicken substitution industry is a scam.

 

[Midlife Sperglord]

People who try to talk and con their way out of paying the bus fare, holding up the bus in the meanwhile.

 

[murgatroid]

People who skip you in line and then accuse you of trying to skip them in line. Worse if they start making a huge scene out of it.

 

[yasscat]

Setting up a new phone. Even when I have everything transferred exactly as it is from the old phone, there's always something that feels slightly off, and it drives me up a wall.

 

[yasscat]

Also, a lot of the casting decisions for the new miniseries for The Stand. It's my favorite book and I want them to do it justice for once.

Not sorry for double posting.

"Will only swipe right if you have a dog"
Just go on google if you want to see a picture of a dog, stop shitting up dating apps.

 

[Fish-Eyed Fool]

Everything about Tor captchas.

 

[Recoil]

The fact that you can get food, clothes, medication, ass, music and a car service through your phone.
There are repercussions to that shit and a real human cost, to boot.

The convenience of it is an illusion.

 

[Ruin]

Incredibly mean and nasty elderly people. I don't give a single flying fuck how old you are, act like a civilized human being or do everyone a favor and fuck off into your grave.

Advanced age is not a free pass to treat others poorly.

With the exception of advanced dementia, I agree. Mere senility is no excuse.

"Uncanny Valley" is a dumb, clumsy and overused phrase. CGI and robotics are naturally unnatural so there is always going to be something a little "off".
