"When I was your age I had put myself through college with a summer job!"
Yeah and did you ever stop to think about why that isn't the case anymore, you smug mongs?

Why is everyone so loud these days? No matter where I go, it's always a clusterfuck of unpleasant sounds. I just want a quiet life...

People who wait until my back is turned when I am cooking something to throw a whole bunch of other ingredients in that have no place in what I am cooking to begin with.

An old article from 2004 says similar stuff -- and more:
Cell Phone rant
(they even mention the then upcoming takeoff of smartphones)

The only boomers I respect are the ones that grew up not being brats like the hippie kids who harassed returning Vietnam vets for no reason.

What people are able to do this without being stabbed? When I am cooking I usually have access to very large knives and nobody would even think of doing that.

Family members who assume I will not stab them if they did that. Prison sucks, and they know I know that.

People who scrape their teeth on cutlery when eating, it makes my skin crawl and I find it particularly disgusting.

Agreed. When I was waiting in an office so many people around me were being loud on their phones. One guy near me was having an hour long conversation and a woman next to me was texting and I kept hearing those loud noises that come out when someone texts back. It got so annoying that I switched seats to get far away from those people.

Someone who lives next to me IRL is both a smartphone and cigarette addict, so I know what that's like.

People that can’t hand wash dishes correctly. In the job I work at, I have to hand wash dishes and the person that does the morning shift mostly washes the dishes, but not quite. This means I have to rewash those dishes again, because I don’t want people getting sick. I’m fine doing dishes, but it’s annoying having to rewash dishes I would assume are clean.

That one guy who's pissed off on the phone for some reason and doesn't have the audacity to talk out outside.

Tissue paper in gift wrap. I have generalized gift wrap anxiety and tissue paper exacerbates this. For one thing, it's a fucking waste. It gets wrinkled and torn the first time you use it, so it has to be thrown away after one use. I might as well throw away a giant jar of dimes every year. It only comes in a few colors, and if it comes in matching patterns, you only get one or two sheets of the patterned paper and a billion sheets of white.
I am not offended by the lack of tissue paper if someone hands me a gift, but everyone else is, including my human. My human has a stick up his ass about tissue paper and if I try to leave it out, he acts like a whiny little bitch because of the culture of mutual ass-kissing among his people. I even have to waste tissue paper on the fucking toddler. My human gets pissy about spending money on gifts but will make a special trip on Christmas Eve to go out and get the tissue paper if I try to sneak and leave it out of the packages. Oh my fucking god.

Ugh, I have a family member who does this. I swear she just pours some water on the dishes and calls it a day. Using a sponge to get the food remains out is not that hard!

Generally getting hit in the back of the head. Could be a piece of paper, could be a Nerf dart. A plastic head cap at Target fell on the back of my head once and I threw a box of hockey sticks down the aisle.
I cleaned it up, of course. It's only a moment of supererogatory anger.

- Idiots who use dystopian stories as real world comparison for politics and acting like they are clever philosophers who see the truth like "Haha this world is turning into Idiocracy/1984" when these idiots have never looked at the source material.
- Those jackasses who cut you off in line because there was a gap between you and the person in front of you.
- Parents who bring literal babies to R-Rated films because yes taking your child to go see Joker is such a smart move for you.

--Parents who allow their children to curse. Look, I know that they "eventually are gonna do it anyway," but if you let Junior drop F-bombs on social media and elsewhere and generally do not enforce standards of behavior, he's gonna grow up to be an antisocial twat.
