Things that I find mildly irritating v.2

I'd rather be listening to all that great music while wrenching on my RC trucks in an air conditioned environment

I'm sure it was a good format back when they made that site in 1996.

That look was the rage back in the day, was it not?

I'm not sure it was the rage, so much as it was the only thing people could manage with their hand coded html and dialup internet connections. There are so many options freely available to create sites these days that didn't exist back then, at least for most people.

For real. I built this site on Wix in about 12 minutes. Is's weird though, they haven't received a payment from me in over a year and the site is still up.

You'd think the domain should have at least expired by now.
I mean, that site still leaves a lot to be desired, but for an oddly specific 12 minutes of work, it looks at least as good as anything from 1996.

When my laptop runs out of battery with no low battery warning.

i.e. all the time

Do you not have the options turned on for that, or is your battery dying too quickly once it gets that low?

I don't know where the setting for that is, so I'm not sure how it would've been switched off (or even why you'd want it to be switched off) but I wouldn't know.

I have seen the battery icon at around 6% before, where battery warnings used to be at 10% & 7%.

I've also had this computer for around 3 years, so I'd assumed it was just a system file corrupting or something. I have had to delete all my files before due to my user folder corrupting (3 days before an assignment was due btw, not fun  ), so I'd assumed it was related to something like that.

I'm using Windows 8.1 by the way, if that helps.

When someone is having a shitty day or shitty week and they just take it out on everyone around them, and act like a total asshole. This person is trying to pick a fight, looking for any chance to blow off steam and I'm not going for it.

All I am doing is counting down the days till I can move the fuck out of here and get my own place, which is just over the horizon.

When I comment or like something by a friend on Facebook, and someone from my family, who doesn't know who this person is or what my relationship with them is, suddenly starts commenting on it.

My friend from college (who I haven't seen in nearly a decade at this point) was posting some funny, NSFW articles up, I added to the joke, and an older relative of mine suddenly comments on it out of nowhere. That is so god damn rude it just infuriates me. Baby boomers ruined social media.

Why can they see what I'm liking? How do I turn that off?

[Kotowboy]

That one person who - no matter how happy or excited about some guitar or bike or whatever it is you just bought - they'll always go like :

Yamaha ? Suzuki ? Gibson ? Tama ?

Absolute rubbish... *SHOULD HAVE* bought [insert brand] instead...

My mother is the worst at this, but slightly different.  She has been saying happy birthday to people who I know she does not know, because they are people I hardly know such as friends of friends.  I have no idea how she knows its such a person's birthday or why she feels compelled to say happy birthday to random people, but its annoying.

My mother also constantly comments and likes posts from my ex who I haven't even spoken to in 2.5 years. 

[Kotowboy]

When people reply to a post with a GIF - as someone will now do - because they're so hilarious...


...mainly cause they can't think of a reply of their own.

[Kotowboy]

Haha. Ins't Jif a kitchen cleaner too ?

At least it was until they changed the name to Cif for some reason.

[Adami]

That must be a British thing because I have never heard of those things.


That or I am just awful at cleaning, which is very very likely.

That's not why people do that.

I love responding in Gif form.  It's funny.  I am certainly not short for words.  Misspelled or not.

I'm not on Facebook at all, but my daughter is, and my ex-wife (her mom) does that ALL THE TIME.   I get texts from my daughter at all hours... 'DAD!  Mom's liking my wall" or some shit (I don't know the lingo or the process) but either way, it kind of amounts to a 51 year old butting into the conversation between two 16 year olds and it's creepy and weird and embarrassing.

There is a subreddit called r/oldpeoplefacebook that's full of gems

When downloads stop on 100% and then.....nothing.....

I'm sick and I find it more than mildly irritating.

Following up on this. She's been feeling like shit since last Saturday and had a fever of 102 yesterday. She finally went to the doctor and found out she has the flu. If she went to the doctor's on Monday, they could have given her meds for it. Now she's stuck waiting it out and my weekend is gone because I have to play caretaker. I may be being a little selfish here, but I can't help it.

People who drive too slow in front of me. People who drive too fast behind me.

And the wind pisses me off.

[Kotowboy]

Yeah wind is annoying on a motorbike. I'd rather drive in heavy rain. At least I can go slow. Wind just pushes you around whatever...

OMG yeah. These people are the worst. It's real, too.

" I just bought a 5 piece Tama kit "

" Rubbish. They stopped making that model..."

ok ?

Hey, Kotow. I think we've found your soul mate.

Wind is annoying dammit! Who wants a faceful of hair and grit?

Give me pouring rain any day.

[Prog Snob]

Why are their grits floating around on the breeze?

I know a guy who took back an American Standard telecaster he bought for himself because someone important to him ridiculed it calling it a "toy guitar".

It's windy where I live. Airborne food is actually a major contributor to the obesity epidemic.
