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

Millennial nostalgia fags.

It seems like any time I check instagram, I'm being bombarded by recommendations for these 30-40 year old dried up bitches, caked in makeup and dressing like it's 1999-2005 going on and on about AIM, the mall, shitty bands and anything else to desperately cling to their wasted youth.

People are getting just more aggressively dumb and quick to offend, for example, explaining that just because they had a thought, it doesn’t have to instantly leap out of their mouth. You get a constant, loud dumb commentary all the time from some people as if they fear their mouths will quit working if they’re not running them nonstop.

When trying to fix a computer problem, you make a series of increasingly retarded decisions that wreck even more shit over a couple hours, so you just say fuck it and reinstall which is what you should have done in the first place.

I hate how vapid and entitled people are who’ve had some shitty experiences happen to them thinking it gives them an excuse to act like an asshole to people, Like you are not special you entitled snowflake, millions of people have terrible experiences, abuse, shitty parents, terrible injuries , mental health conditions and deaths of family members and loved ones. The difference is, good people don’t use that as an excuse to do terrible things, they find help from guidance counsellors, trained professionals who can help them with their issues and sort themselves out.

I can understand people that may be under huge amount of stress who act out and try to apologise If they’ve been stuck up and condescending due to their difficult circumstances, but so many people whine as if saying ‘It’s not my fault I’m a shithead, I have XYZ condition BAWWW!

It’s an awful social trend that humanity have adopted in this Social media revolution of the 2010s/2020s, I wish it would stop and people would just own up to their flaws and try to work on fixing themselves, Although it a fools dream at this point considering the state of the modern internet and how self-obsessed society has become. It’s infuriating. 😞

People who kind of just assume everyone is the same religion as them?

Not sure if this fits here or the retail horrors better because it's mild. But I had a lady come into my work today going "I just want you to know how glad I am you're closed tomorrow. In today's godless world (insert something about no one being religious and good anymore)."

I made a polite neutral sound since I'm at work but like, lady you're talking to someone who's not Christian. I know thats the default here but it always feels narcissisitic for people to talk like they assume everyone is. If I wasn't at work I'd probably say "oh, indeed, I hope you have a happy Ostara/Beltane* and may Cernunnos bless you too!"

*Those don't really fall on Easter this year and I don't know if she would know who Cernunnos is, but it'd be fun to see her reaction.

Companies - Big Name ones that start to reintroduce old items or product lines that charge a premium for that product and cheap out every where they can, despite making more profit than the originals ever did using cheap Asian labour, you could go all in and finish them to an impeccable standard and still make an obscene profit margin.

It goes one more step than that, have you ever seen how those people seem to revel in there ignorance? It's one thing to be ignorant of a subject because you've never encountered it before it's another to actively mock or take offence at those willing to at least try and learn it before making a judgement, they are always the kind of people who never stop chattering away.

Fucking Wasps.
I am allergic to a lot of insects - not the "ram an epipen in or you'll die" kind of allergic but still unpleasant.

I was minding my business, carving some wood outside listening to an audiobook and this fat fucking wasp came and always sat so I couldn't smack it and the "really strong" spray just made it mad after being gassed for 5 seconds straight.
Had to pack up and write this seething forum post. Fucking hate them.

Is this one of those Big Japanese wasps that's started invading places? I've never seen one but they look fucking nasty.

Have you tried a pine resin candle or something like that, it tends to fuck insects off in short order one of them by where your working helps I've used them when fishing in Scotland and it kept the midges away but if it's windy it's not worth it.

Nah it looked like one of the common german wasps just bulkier. I've already put packaging paper into the corner so they won't nest and keep away more. Apparently they mistake it for a nest.

I should try the pine candle, I usually use lemon candles to keep the mosquitos and horseflies at bay.

Coomers are why we can't have nice things. It pisses me off to no end that they try to insert their degeneracy into absolutely every possible space and topic. All-ages games, children's cartoons, pregnancy groups, animals, historical whatever, food, plague doctors, doesn't fucking matter. Rule 34 is real and it is a plague I wish I could cure.

I can't get into new places because of coomers. A vast majority of coomers are men and I don't want to see massive tits and arses because I'm not into women.

I really hate it when I point out that when people consume so much porn, they look for more extreme stuff and that's not a good thing, I'm met with a judgemental look or told, "You hate what you don't understand". Man, if you feel attacked for pointing out that fact, you need to keep it in your pants more often.

I'm not against 18+ stuff rather that I'm a fan of "A time and a place". I don't want to go to a public Super Mario group and be met with fetish art of Peach, Daisy and Roslina.
Random fact, I've hardly seen any normal art of those three. Coomers GTFO.

People on the highway who feel the need to rev their shitty sports car's engine as loud as it'll go.

We may be able to hear you 5 blocks off, but you're just being a nuisance, not being cool like you're still in high school or some shit.

I especially hate when they do it at night. Good grief.
