Things that annoy you more each time you experience it (no politics)

Almost every time I take the elevator down to the lobby, the idiots that are going up just start walking in before letting people out. They have this surprised look on their face, as if they are just learning that people might be going the opposite direction.
This has always been a huge aggravation to me.

A corollary complaint would be the people who pause right in front of the door when coming out. They stand there oblivious to the fact that the doors are closing behind them before the folks waiting to go into the elevator have a chance to load.

customer service, or the lack thereof, amongst almost all service stuff- fast food, grocery people, retail, etc. There's just this don't GAF from the top to bottom in these places.

Hell, I had a 50% off thing for Uber to use at Fresh Market, so I ordered like 8 things- easy shit like 2lbs of chicken thighs from the butcher, single serve pot pies, chicken breast , etc. 8 things. 2 were correct. I recall the argument with customer support being circular "well it as charged correctly"- and just giving up. I got 2 family sized pot pies (cost like 4x more), and 2, as in two count, chicken thighs not two pounds. WTF am I going to make with .25 lbs of chicken thigh. Ugh

People who listen and watch a presentation and open up the Q&A with a question about something that was explicitly & painstakingly explained in said presentation.
Sitting through a presentation where they just read the slides verbatim. If you are going to do that cancel the meeting and send an email with the slides attached to save us all some time.
 
People having a conversation while blocking the aisle/door when you're trying to get by. To make matters worse, they give you the wtf look.

Barking dogs, dogs shitting in the parking, dogs brought to farmers markets, outdoor concerts, dogs off leashes in parks with signs that clearly state dogs on leashes only, dogs in apartments in violation of the leases, people with dog stickers on the car that say I heart my snapperdoodle, grand dogs on board or dog mom, weatherman giving the dog walking forecast, commercials with dogs tracking mud all over the house and the owner just pulls out the Bissel instead of beating the dog within an inch of it's life, the commercials to save neglected dogs because of their irresponsible owners...

So youre a cat person 😉
 
The interviews of the coaches as they're coming on or off the field during halftime of basketball and football games. Totally unnecessary and not informative.

I can't grab the remote fast enough.

Also, the Christina Hall commercials where she's pimping the Jacuzzi bath remodels. The uptalk at the end of nearly every sentence is like a rusty nail on a chalk board. Another immediate remote grabber.

I'll also add HyVee's mentality on checkout lanes. They gutted a ton of lanes, I assume fired/moved employees around in favor of self check outs and 90% of the time I shop there they refuse to have more than 3 self checkouts open
The hyvees around me have an armed security guard sometimes. It's the same guy I've seen every time and he rotates around the 3 stores. Pretty sure he gets paid the same as 2 or 3 high school aged checkers. So instead of having someone to actually DO the job, they replace them with someone with a full on tactical vest complete with taser and gun to make it seem like a ghetto grocery store and make sure everyone properly does the job themselves...

I like to make direct eye contact with him as I double-dip in the self checkout.
 
Grocery Shopping Center parking lots. Just a mass conglomeration of mouth breathers walking down the middle of the lanes, lazy ****s stopping in middle of lane near front waiting for people to back out who are not even close to being ready as they are just starting to load their cars, and people backing into spots with such terrible skill sets that they make others wait as they have to make three attempts. The perfect spot to observe the self absorbedness of 2024 Americans.
 
I work on the 6th floor of a pretty busy office building and I use the elevator several times a day. Almost every time I take the elevator down to the lobby, the idiots that are going up just start walking in before letting people out. They have this surprised look on their face, as if they are just learning that people might be going the opposite direction from them

I used to have an employer that was ahead of its time with DEI, learning about other cultures, debriefing what we learned about other cultures, celebrating each others' diversity, etc, etc.

We had an internal blog where each week somebody wrote something and there was a comment section at the end where your name would be attached to your comment.

99.99% of the time the posts were like "With Veterans Day coming up, here is a story about my grandfather, how have veterans impacted you and how will you remember them?"

Then one week, somebody wrote on elevator etiquette and it turned into a full on generational, sex, and race war.

Mine is pretty basic: people who don’t return carts to a cart corral. I’ve seen this at dollar stores, mainstream grocery stores, and Costco (so assuming a broad income range).

It shows a level of laziness and entitlement - particularly when carts end up in parking spaces or in a grassy area nearby.
There are 2 types of people in the world. Those who return shopping carts and those that fűck with other people's cars by just leaving them wherever they want.
 
Women over size 5 in leggings

Smokers

Men without kids that claim their wife’s kids as theirs

Teachers/coaches over 35 without kids

Anyone that drives drunk or on illegal drugs

Only people that graduate from tier one law schools should be lawyers, below tier one they are called lawyer jr.

Married men that are not able to provide for family and wife has to work

People that think journalist are important

People that are overweight

Anyone that does personal things while they are being paid to work

People that identify as things

People that tell you their pronouns or sexual orientation for absolutely no reason

Anyone that posts more than 10 times a day on a message board

People with lengthy criminal records and not in jail



Thankfully we moved outside the USA so we don’t have to deal with most of the above minus the should be called lawyer jr.’s.

Cart corals in general are a mortal enemy of mine. HYVee, you don’t need 69 cart corals in your parking lot. If people can’t walk their fatasses a few more feet, have one of your thousand employees “working” go out and retrieve the carts. @Greenway4Prez you feel me?
Word, brother.

It’s bad enough that their workers watch you check your items out instead of doing it themselves. And now we gotta make sure all the carts are neatly arranged? GTFO.
 
People who can’t pick a speed on the interstate and they pass you and you pass them multiple times.
It's the slow people that take forever to get around, and then somehow manage to find themselves in front of you again.

For instance, they are lounging in the left lane, you finally get around them, and then you get cut off by another driver and have to slow down, but somehow the person you finally got around cruises right by you and you have to try to get around them again.

My wife and kids do this all the time, at this point I’m guessing on purpose to annoy me. I told her at one time that if she didn’t clear the time it would ruin the LED display on the microwave. I think she seriously believed me but still didn’t care.

Left lane cruisers
Slow walkers (like they are window shopping) at the airport
People who throw trash out their cars
People who pay with checks at the express lane
Buying concert tickets from ticketmaster
Waiting in line to order coffee or food. People get to the front have no idea what to order when asked.

I could go on...
I couldn’t tell you the last time I saw someone write a check. Where do you live? The 90’s? Lol

I don't drive a SUV or truck. I drive a car. I hate it when soccer mom SUV drivers or little dick big truck people pull up at an intersection next to me, farther than me, so I cant see cross traffic to make a turn.

Easily my biggest driving pet peeve
Why do people associate vehicles with penis size? Dude drives a Porsche, must have small peen. Dude drives a lifted truck, small peen. Am I to assume poors who drive honda civics are all hung like Ron Jeremy? lol

Guilty. I would do it just to piss of one specific guy. Not because I didn't like him, but because he was just so easy to piss off

They’ve told me at work that they do it on purpose now. I said, “So it doesn’t make any difference”. Now I unplug it when I’m done. 👺
