Yeah, sometimes it's because you said something dumb and bad and people are screaming at you. And other times it's because you said something dumb and good and people are laughing about it and it's now the thread title and this is the closest to internet fame and fortune I will ever get.

One driving one of mine is when people take highway on ramps way too slow. If someone is hitting the highway at only 20-25 mph it makes the person in the right lane need to brake, or they merge into the next lane making that lane go slower, and it generally causes an annoyance for everyone. It’s why I can’t get mad at someone going the speed limit, but the people who drive 50 in a 65mph speed limit highway are among the most annoying drivers to me

Yeah people going too slow suck, but I’ve gotten bullshit speeding tickets one too many times to just habitually go over the limit on the highway. Just stick the cruise control to the limit and deal with it imo. Yeah, limits are usually set deliberately low and matching traffic is usually ideal for safety but like... Going 5 or 10 faster isn’t going to make a meaningful difference on the highway anyway, and me cruising along 5 or 10 below what you’re doing isn’t dangerous unless you’re already driving badly. I mean gently caress I’ll risk my life to avoid paying Podunk County, Shittington any more 200+ dollar tickets for going 80 in a 75 e: peeve: I don’t care about pit bulls (although it’s dumb to pretend your poorly-trained pit is equally as dangerous as grandma’s poorly-trained toy poodle) but people who advocate for them annoy me. You’re just a different sort of dumbshit as people who want to maintain breed purity for dog shows, with an extra helping of dumb because your specific breed (not an actual breed) was and is bred largely for blood sport, and still gets lovely buyers clamoring for it because it is “dangerous.” Be nice to currently-alive pits because they are Good Boys and Girls, yes they are, but we don’t need more of them.

Er, did you mean Jessica Rabbit? I mean, whatever floats your boat, but... For content: I've been bothered by people eating food/lunch at their desk right next to me at the office. While the more obvious aspect of this does certainly annoy me (gross mouth sounds, fork scraping, crunching, heavy breathing, smells, etc.), that's actually my secondary annoyance. My primary peeve is that I feel like it sets a bad precedent that we can't even enjoy lunch anymore and feel the need to eat lunch at our desks while still working. You should be allowed to enjoy your lunch! Go chill in the breakroom, have a walk, whatever: don't let yourself be tricked by the same gross office behavior that forces sick people to come in when they should be resting! I'm overthinking it, obviously, and it's probably not always the case that they are eating at their desk because they don't want to be seen as a slacker by uptight bosses: they could just be eating at their desk because it's comfortable for them. I just hate the thought of how every bit of luxury is slowly being shaved away by subtle coercion until it becomes the norm.

When you open up a box of saltines and all four packs have that one dark brown/burnt edge. Also if you get a box that goes super light on the salt. Worthless trash.

When somebody uses up a roll of toilet paper and puts a new roll in, but balances the empty tube on top of the fresh roll instead of throwing it away. What the gently caress? WHY??? "I'll just leave this here in case someone needs a sploof later."

That actually sounds pretty good if you use regular butter. I'm going to try it later. Butter on salty soft pretzels is extremely good so it's probably pretty good with some salty saltines as long as you get the ratio right.

Young, healthy, able-bodied people who crowd into the lifts at train stations instead of walking up the stairs. It's slower and you're getting in the way of people who actually need the lift. You're inconveniencing yourself and everyone around you. How is it even possible to be that lazy and inconsiderate?

The next time an american goes “ugh I hate american milk chocolate, gimme that Cadbury’s” or similar, I swear to god, I am going to silently judge them so hard. There is other chocolate to have! The lowest-hanging most mass-marketed lovely british chocolate on the planet that your canadian friend gave you once is not as sophisticated as you are pretending to be! Like eat whatever crappy chocolate you like, I love lots of crappy food, but don’t be all elitist about it

I think that chocolate in particular gets a pass there, because American chocolate actually tastes like vomit to me. I'll sit down and eats tons of garbage food I know doesn't actually taste good to me like Funyunns and poo poo but at least it doesn't make me feel like I I threw up a few hours ago and can't rinse the taste out. It's not about quality, it's fundamentally different in a way that's bad.

You can get american chocolate that doesn’t have that Special Flavour. You can get lots of foreign chocolate in the US too. But nope, it has to be the one massive well-known company that’s famously got Hershey manufacturing its US product.

Ok, yeah, I'm behind that. The only way I can describe what I feel when I'm around bad chocolate is that it's similar to when I throw up in my mouth a little and then have to spend the next few minutes staring at the wall trying to focus on nothing because I don't know what my stomach is going to do next.

I don't mind people standing on the escalator as long as they stay on the correct side (there are usually signs at the airport so you know which side is the standing side), but when people stand on those moving walkway things it just doesn't make sense. Like with escalators I kind of get it, nobody likes climbing stairs because it takes more exertion than regular walking, but the moving walkways' entire point is to help you get across giant terminals fast. If you stand on them you'll be going slower than you would by just walking normally. And people never stand to the side in them, they always treat it as a time to dig through their carryon or just put their suitcase to the side and browse their phone and huff and act like you're a massive dick for saying "excuse me I need to get by".

Yeah the solution to oily cheese is to buy the processed pasteurized cheese food product that is even more oily but has a chemical emulsifier to hold it together.

I was actually about to post that article as a point against you. American cheese used to be an actual cheese made like any other cheese. After Kraft came along American cheese just became the name for the leftover byproducts from making cheese mixed together and congealed. It's not that the chemicals themselves are bad it's just the fact that it's used as a cheap and fast substitute for making actual cheese which gives the fake stuff the weird impossible texture.
