Get out of the way!
Stand in everybody's way, completely ignorant of their surroundings. Even worse when they start to congregate.
I swear some people have no idea there are other people. Zero situational awareness.
Have you heard of headphones?
GiphyListen to music out loud. I don't wanna hear your sh*t in the train.
Definitely not while hiking through the woods. I once passed a guy on a trail with a boom box on his shoulder. It was 2017.
People do this?
Litter.
Find a trash can dammit!
Litter annoys me on the regular but these days people are especially atrocious with gloves - every grocery run has us walking a maze between used gloves that people strip off and dump on the ground.
There are trash cans everywhere in this city, why is this necessary?
This is infuriating.
People coughing and not covering their mouth really pisses me off.
Had to pick up a prescription today from a store in town. The town centre was pretty much dead as expected but I was still wearing my mask - managed to get one with N99 filters a while back for cycling. Along comes a guy, wandering in my direction despite there being a lot of space where he could've walked and coughed at the exact moment he walked by me.
Luckily I managed to divert a bit to keep at least the 2 meters before he got near. He only half heartedly covered his mouth with his hand. Of all times, of all places to cough he choose to walk nearby and do it. Absolute f*cking twit.
Oh and the real kicker is that prescription was for my immune compromised partner. He needed the meds very quickly (sudden flair in his condition, which makes him even more immune compromised) which was the only reason I risked going out. If the phrase 'for f*ck's sake' could've been summed up in an expression it would have been the look I gave that guy.
These are the worst kinds of people.
GiphyRaging at waiters/waitresses at restaurants. That gives me mad second-hand embarrassment like chill.
Showtime!
Being pointlessly loud.
*sings on the subway*
"EXCUSE ME LADIES AND GENTLEMEN CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE..."
Nope! It's a sure way to get me the hell off of that train car as soon as possible though
Ugh.
Play music loudly on their phone, or loudly watching videos at a restaurant.
what would you like to order
Whaaa? I can't hear you
MAMA SHARK DODO DODO DODO
Yes to this.
GiphyTalking loudly on the phone.
...especially if they're holding the phone away from their ear using the speaker setting.
Adults do this?
Scream. Throw a tantrum.
Little kids? Whatever, kids are loud for a lot of reasons, you can be annoyed by them but you have to accept it's an inevitable consequence of sharing space with them.
Adults? What the f*ck is your problem? How have you failed so hard as a grown-*ss man/woman that you're shrieking and stamping your feet for all the neighbors to see? You're a nightmare, nobody should want to be around you.
Good tip.
The headlights on vehicles are too bright for my [apparently] sensitive eyes. Bonus points if they're blue or superwhite and being sported on a truck with a lift kit.
These are awful. Why blind other drivers?!
I got some yellow night-driving glasses to help with this. They help cut down on the glare.
EVERY. DAY.
GiphySitting down to do something (or laying in bed), and then right as you're getting comfortable realizing you have to pee.
Just like restaurants.
Having a ton of options and none of them sound good.
Having too many choices is actually harder than a defined few. In his well-known work, psychologist Barry Schwartz, calls this choice paralysis. He argues that more choices make us less likely to take action, and to be less satisfied with our eventual decision.
Reply all.
GiphyPeople that hit reply all to work emails that there is clearly no reason....
This is my boss. And then she needs everyone to respond with 'Noted' or some other confirmation and that has to go to everyone as well otherwise how will all 6 of us in the company be on the same page?
Yes.
Going to the bathroom to poop, but no poop comes out.
Or squatting forever and then having your legs buzzing afterwards.
It's infuriating.
That thing where you're listening to something in your headphones while cooking and the cord catches on a cabinet handle and they get ripped out of your ears and for some reason it feels like the most aggressive assault on the senses possible and you're instantly ready to square up with that cabinet.
Autocorrect is your friend.
GiphyWhen I make a typo, go back and erase, then continue typing and make the error again. By the third time I have to erase the typo I'll be slamming the backspace in frustration.
So this isn't going to sound like a real option, because it's basically idiotic, but try simply leaving the typos until you've finished writing the whole thing. I used to be viscerally against this, typos needed to be corrected immediately, but it turns out that this speeds up the first pass and helps keep your thoughts in order, and then you can fix the typos at your leisure.
We can solve dust.
That there's ALWAYS house work to be done. You can't get ahead, it's constant.
I despise any form of constant maintenance tasks.
Also my programmer brain can't accept the fact that there's no permanent solution to these problems.
Why is dust a thing? Can we solve dust?
