"Hate" is a strong word, but I very much dislike it when a website that I can access on my computer only allows phone users to actually use it, or when certain features of a website are hidden for desktop users but available for phone users, such as Instagram Stories. I just don't agree with desktop/laptop users being restricted or offered the barebones version of a website considering that the internet has existed long before smartphones were a thing.
Every article lately using the word "quietly" in the headline to drive clicks, to trick the user into thinking they're getting in on some controversial secret. It's the new "slammed".
When people let their phones ring endlessly. For God's sake - either answer it or mute it, don't just ignore it!
This infuriates me to no end. I dont understand how these people live. Every few seconds is another notification. If its a Snapchat notification its even worse and I dont know why.
I hate getting my feet wet in the bathroom because someone else dripped all over the floor/rug because they didn't dry themselves before they got out of the shower. Especially when I have socks on. Dry your entire body before you take any body part out of the shower. 😤
Especially when I have socks on.
Living dangerously there, aincha?
People who wear sunglasses indoors. I get fluorescent or bright led lights bother some folks, but it still screams asshole to me.
This was a pet peeve of mine when I used to work customer service. The biggest douchebags were always middle-aged men with sunglasses on.
Second only to the ones who have them upside down on their hat. You could just leave them in the car but then we wouldn't get to see your $80 big boy flex.
Perfume and cologne. Makes me wheeze. Also long dirty fingernails, people who work with soil or grease or something excused from that.
Glad to hear that workers like me have an exception. Always feel a little insecure about my dirty nails (I'm a woodworker and the grit from sharpening gets onln my nails and hands).
Also hate super strong perfume. Sometimes there are old ladies, who I assume have little sense of smell left, utterly dowsing themselves in perfume. As soon as they open the door the smell hits you like a brick. Honestly I dont know if I hate the smell of BO or chemically perfume more. One grosses me out and the other makes me winse. Sometimes its so strong my sinuses and nostrils burn.
Sometimes old ladies shop at my work and the lingering smell of perfume transports me back to childhood, lingering in the hallway while my mom got herself ready to go out. That's about the only positive thing I can say about most perfumes. I do like my wife's sweet vanilla scent, though.
