Sounds like you need an ice cream eating partner.

I volunteer as tribute

Goddamn. LED. Headlights. Also the way different manufacturers have these tacky headlight setups to somehow set then apart from others so not only are they as bright as the fucking sun, they have way more diodes than is ever necessary.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There is a confluence of problems here. LED headlights are stupidly bright, but if they’re aimed correctly and the headlights aren’t too high up, they’re not as big an issue generally.

But the arrival of LED headlights coincided with cars getting tall as fuck. There are pickup trucks whose headlights are nearly as high up as my head. Which just compounds the problem, because even if those lights are aimed mostly correctly, they’re still gonna blind people.

It’s infuriating.

When people block aisles at the grocery store and you say "excuse me", but they act like they don't hear you and don't move. It's literally just you and them in the aisle, they don't need to have their cart in the middle of the aisle while they stand next to it. There's enough room for 2 people and their carts to fit in an aisle.

True true. Cars are outdated, fast reliable frequent 24/7 public transport is the future. Also not random

MONKEYS! I HATE MONKEY!

It's like God drew a crude Picture of you and said "Hehe thats you!". My God I hate Monkey so much. They are evil, they are gross and they are ugly.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

They are unsettling lol. Except Donkey Kong.

People who subscribe to the whole male power struggle culture. Not just in a political sense; people will say things about respect or posturing etc. and it physically disgusts me to be reminded that people live like that.

I really hate that California dropped all new shower heads down to 1.8 gpm. I feel very alone in this outrage. People are flying around in private fucking jets, and you want us all to take one for the team and suffer a shitty dribble of a shower every day. A generous hot shower is one of the few things that makes our lives far better than our great great grandparents. Taking out the flow restrictor is like having sex without a condom. A whole generation of suckers won’t even know what they’re missing.

I hate ordering a beer in a restaurant and it comes in a shaker pint (conical pint), which is usually a 13 oz pour. How can we have a government who verifies the measurement of fuel pumps, but not beer, when beer costs like 15x more than fuel. Fill lines are a simple, cheap, and good solution.

I hate metering lights. For those who don’t know they’re stoplights on the on-ramp to an interstate highway. Waste of fuel, don’t help with traffic.

I really hate advertisements. It seems the more I block them, the more offensive they are when one gets through.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I’m with you on the shower heads. I rip out the flow restrictors before I even install one.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

I just measured my showers. I was thinking it would be over 3 gpm but my downstairs is 2.6, and upstairs is 2.25. Pretty modest actually. My guess is that they’re designed for the national standard of 2.5 gpm without a restrictor. It just makes me so mad to squeeze simple pleasures from the poor through regulation. People are miserable enough for fucks sake, if they can afford a $0.50 shower let them enjoy 10 minutes of the day.

I really hate advertisements. It seems the more I block them, the more offensive they are when one gets through.

Bruh YouTube ads feel like I was called every slur ever made and pissed on by Hitler when my premium expired. Before then, an ad was just another ad.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

YouTube ads start playing on mobile YouTube and I recoil in disgust, "like fucking hell you do!", and swiftly retreat to ReVanced

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

YouTube is pretty bad. If I’m watching a video at 1.5x, it remembers this setting for the next video, so the same courtesy should apply to the ads. Avoidable in a web browser for now, eventually I’ll just have to youtube-dl anything I want to watch.

Dogs. I don't want to hear about yours and if I'm in public keep your dog away from me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I used to sit a dog who loved sniffing random people's feet lol

Plug in air fresheners.

If I rent an Airbnb which has them I will hunt every single one down and it's going straight out the window.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Ice in drinks, because I hate straws so I almost exclusively drink from the side of the glass. Ice slams into my teeth and makes me rage. What a first world problem lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I love ice, I finish my drink then I chew the ice until I get brain freeze. It's epic.

Yeeeeeees. Why would anyone ever want ice in their drinks?

  1. You get less of the drink you paid for
  2. It ends up watered down.
  3. Cold = less flavour
  4. It's too fucking cold

And yet they look at me as if I'm the weird one for stating no ice. And apparently I'm being difficult when they still give me a drink with bloody ice

I hate dish towels hanging on kitchen drawers. Do people just like picking up the towel every time you need a fork?
