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

[The Last Stand]

Being told to wait when you could be doing something, then they get mad when they catch you doing something else while you wait.

My ceiling fan causes a flickering effect on the light in my room, so i can either be cool or not have eye strain.

Twitter also has a tendency to highlight or recommend tweets from people who seem more like "literally who?" types than anyone worth interacting with. The bad part is, these sites either disallow the ability to stop these BS recommendations or make it so difficult to find the right settings in the options that the path of least resistance is to do nothing and try to manually ignore/dismiss them instead.

Facebook doesn't surprise me, though. The site inundates people with ads for online casinos the instant online gambling becomes legal in their jurisdictions. Hiding ads from these casinos seems futile as it seems like ads for 2-3 more new casinos pop up afterwards. I get that online ads may be inevitable, especially on free services. However, too many tends to annoy users and cause them to use said services as infrequently as reasonably possible.


I once had an employer that appreciated short, to-the-point status reports and questions regarding projects. The ability to communicate effectively with as few words as possible may be a dying art, but t here are those that still appreciate it when it's appropriate.

The best way to use twitter is to follow who you want to see tweets from and then use tweetdeck. no ads, no algorithm shuffling of your feed, and you can even turn off retweets.

Having to get up at six in the morning every morning. No matter how much I sleep, I still feel exhausted waking up at six.

i have that same problem with my job, why can't they get someone else to cover the morning shift instead of me to come in every morning? at least gimmie the whole weekend off if you're gonna make me get up early and not just sunday.

Thursday. Why? Because it's the day before Friday, thus delaying Friday from happening. I wish the work week could skip from Wednesday to Friday. It's an extra, meaningless day that makes the work week longer than it needs to be.

Whenever a so called friend makes plans to hang out and go somewhere, but then they just ghost you every single time. Then pretend they never even made plans in the first place.

Had a friend like this and it wasn't a 50/50 chance he would do this. It was 80/20. Stopped getting disappointed because I would just say sure and then just do whatever the next day, because he sure as hell wasn't going to show up or even say that he couldn't make it. Glad that gaslighting, fucker narc moved away and out of my life.

I accept my top hats now.

That's not a friend. That's an acquaintance that has your contact info, knows where you live and considers you an alternative for entertainment or utility when his other plans fall through. You're much better off without him.

Lazy, crooked, corrupt, incompetent, disgruntled or overworked staff and officials would be my guess.

We should have a 4 day work week. I used to work them, but moving from 8 hour workdays to 10 hour workdays still kill me.

This may seem an odd one but people who stare at you when they're driving past while you're walking. Not a casual glance but a weird as fuck stare for no apparent reason as if you're the first person they ever saw walking. I don't do anything weird or dress weird. It's just baffling.

I usually just flip them off.
