I'm annoyed by doors that are designed with a hinge that closes by itself, like the door that leads to my bathroom in this apartment. Trying to leave the door open while I shower so that the mirror above the sink doesn't fog up is always an ordeal, and I usually give up.

That's pretty much it.

  • When people argue about taste.
  • Music snobs
  • Film snobs
  • Food snobs
  • Snobs in general
  • Thread titles that begin with "so, let's talk about..."
  • When people end a first post with "discuss"
  • People who get super aggressive and obsessed with proving you wrong simply for having a different opinion than them in some inconsequential matter.
  • People who think they are better because they think they have the perfect couple.

Pretty much these things. Yes. I added the last one.

When people say "like" excessively or follow-up anything remotely controversial with "just sayin'" all to avoid defending their opinion if challenged

"LETS GOOOO"

I swear in any YouTube video or stream one of these doofuses says this after they do something good or win.

I just don't understand it. Why do they all say it? Where are you going and who are you telling? You just beat the guy so clearly can't be him.

People talking, texting, whatevering in the cinema during a film. Once the production company logos come up, the movie has started and you just shut the fuck up.

Another one that's becoming way to prevalent lately are steelbox editions of blu rays or special packaging for tv-series where the back with the info is a loosely glued on piece of paper you sometimes have to rip to access your discs. Seriously, that info is important, so why would I want to throw it out. It's even more annoying when they have cardboard versions of it, because the paper ones you can at least fold and place inside the case. My GoT season 7 box is the latest perpetrator.

Giant edwardian beard with hitler youth haircut and flannel shirt. You're not only not unique, that's the look they use to sell low end Chevrolet vehicles.

Definitely eating noises. I'm a misophone - even my own chewing sounds gross me the fuck out. Life is hard.

Couples who when walking cannot for any reason unlock their hands or walk in single file. Meaning you get pushed into the road because their bond is so strong.

Statements that end with a question mark. It's snarky and passive agressive.

Example.

I call this, "The Edge of WiFi"

Imagine leaving a place that had WiFi that your phone was connected to, and you're sitting in car your getting ready to leave...but the phone is still barely connected. It's showing practically no signal, yet it wont switch over to LTE data. You can't get a song playing, you can't get your gps app working. It's a hassle. Granted, you can just disable your phone's WiFi to get it to connect to LTE, but then you might forget to turn the WiFi back on.

This is a real irritation to me since I drive a lot for my job (contract technician) and often need to use the internet while I'm sitting in my car at a job site.

Slow walkers that block my path.

I don't want to be rude, so I'm awkwardly trying to get by them every time. Then I get nasty looks.

The door is meant to close by itself? It's not just an issue with the hinge? Because you can easily fix this

When someone orders something like food or a drink and then changes their mind midway through preparation and wants something else. You basically have to throw or give away what you were halfway though cooking/mixing because the person is a slow indecisive asshole.

People who don't take their backpacks off when on a bus or train. I'm sick of getting smacked by these idiots. This is a way bigger issue with millennials than previous generations for some reason.

People over 30 who still wear backpacks. Grow up and get a sweet messenger bag.

Two strapping backpacks for life. I'll take comfort over style. I like the look of some messenger bags but not worth the back bother. If I was doing short journeys, perhaps but anything that involves walking a lot of public transport, I'll stick to a backpack.

I basically despise everyone that likes these YouTube kids/hipsters/personalities or whatever you call it. I despise them and I despise their audience. This community makes YouTube more dumb as a platform. It annoys me because when I look at the trending videos channel I see all these insanely dumb videos. It could be an amazing platform with informative videos, discussions etc. however it is being degraded by videos of people pulling unwanted pranks on other people. I mean, what the fuck is funny about scaring people on the street by dressing up as an arab with a bomb? Jesus christ grow the fuck up. I dont care if you are 12 or 20. Go play videogames if you are bored. And no it has nothing to do with me being old.

This video literally almost made me barf:

When people talk about how great sriracha sauce and Chik-Fil-A are. No they fucking aren't.

Just thought of some more:

-People who say "guac" instead of "guacamole"
-"It is/isn't tho" and that's all they respond with.
-People who hate McDonald's and Taco Bell just to hate it
-"Sammich"
-When someone who doesn't speak Spanish says "cajones". Cajones are drawers, not slang for testicles.
-People who hate when their peas touch their corn. FUCKING EAT IT STILL YOU, YOU WASTEFUL POS

When Sony adds a new icon/section to the PS4 home screen so your old themes don't have their own unique themed icon for it.
It's fucking annoying.

I get annoyed when people reply to a question that they can give an answer to with "google it." Like, i'm obviously asking you specifically because I would like to know what your thoughts on the matter on and whatnot. I know I can just google it!

People feeling that the bad(?) ending of a tv show or videogame ruins the entire thing for them. I'm not going to let 5% of something ruin the other 95%.
Yeah this is something that annoys me. But I think it's often just hyperbole and hyperbole annoys me even more.

"Am I the only one" threads.

Hah! It annoys me when I try to google something, I find a forum where someone had the same questions and the answers are "google it".

Surprisingly a lot is about Instagram. Who would have known.
  • people not beginning a sentence with a capital letter, and just proceed to write the entire message without capitals. it reads really messy.
  • Instastories (Boomerangs) that consist of nothing but the user laying on bed with their pointy finger on their lip and only moving their eyes from right to looking straight in the camera. At that point i just think that you are bored and you need to get attention
  • People who only can post selfies on Instagram or want to act all high and mighty about it when being called out on it. You know what that is? Lingering insecurity and a lack of self-reflection.
  • That one person in a group at work who is slacking off but is also constantly trying to pick people off to irritate them. Goes without saying that person isnt liked by anyone.
  • Papercuts. The feeling is so fucking annoying, i honestly could smash something when it happens. Glad it never does.
  • People who never admit fault, but always blame others. Oh wait that's my ex.
  • Bikers who complain when you dont signal which way you are going. The one time that happens, it is really irritating. Especially when those people themselves never signal at all (And i usually do it)
  • Apping people on a bike. Not only does one not pay any attention on the road, they also move extremely slow. Your life isnt that important that you need to be online wherever you go.

"Foodies" and their pretentious belief that their opinions on food are fact.
Also, this. Or vegans that border on doing subliminal messaging with their highlights on ''look what i ate today''.

The amount of Nier Automata cosplay this past year was/is annoying.
It's a cool looking character but all the cosplays looks exactly the same. It's boring.

- The forum shows time in 12-hour format and in MMDDYYYY and I can't change it
- People trying to pronounce smörgåsbord. Kills me everytime to hear the butchered version.

"Fan service" to mean "including characters wearing skimpy clothing".

Feck right off with that. It's hijacking another term that means something entirely different. When I think of "fan service", I think of things like Final Fantasy that have recurring elements or callbacks to previous games that play on nostalgia. I often close threads in disgust on here whenever I see it used for the alternative meaning, which is merely concealing the seediness of the implication behind the veneer of another, pre-existing term.

As someone who gets a lot of satisfaction from fan service in its original context across multiple long-running series in many media, seeing the corruption of the term boils my blood more than it really should.

The phrases are "For better or for worse", "From bad to worse", "Things can't get any worse", "That's the worst thing I've ever seen", etc

Here's a chart I wish everyone would memorize:


Worst <------------ Worse <--------------- Neutral ----------------> Better -----------------> Best

I was at a McDonalds this morning and some guy came asking for money but I didn't have any on me, so I gave him a receipt that you can use to get a free Big Mac(I had already filled out the online survey and wrote the code number on there) and the dude just gave me a weird look and walked off.

Fuck you too.

That moment when you give food to a homeless person and they look at you like "I wanted money asshole" and you look at them like "I would have eaten that later myself asshole."
