Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 349

When you’re sitting next to someone and they chuckle to their self and then (without saying a word) show you their phone to look at/read a meme.

And when that same person later says to someone, “my favorite memes are…” and “It’s like those memes where…”

 

Goofy shit like this.

 

Turn lanes for multiple turns inside them.

Hard to describe lol. A new right turn lane opened last week but there are 4-5 business parking lots you can turn into before getting to the intersection to turn right so you gotta hope no one thinks your turning before you mean to and cuts you off.

 

Pointless message board posts.

 

Being unable to hear your freaking TV because the AC is running.

 

Weather apps.

talk about pointless. There was no chance of rain today - light, heavy, etc. and for the last two hours it’s been damn near tornado like weather with winds/rain/darkness and my weather app still doesn’t show anything. Allegedly it thinks it’s 80 and cloudy, 0% of precipitation

 

I’ve always wanted to join a book club bc I love reading but every time I find one it’s at least an hour away and starts between 5 and 5:30 on a weekday. I work until 5! This is why I hate living here. Everything I want to do is always over an hour away!!

 

People who drive stupid slow in the fast lane. Stupid traffic taking me an hour to go 5 miles wasting all my gas (where I was going I only use about a half tank maybe less)

 

Or your Rumba

 

Haha the worst. And then we have a loud furnace next to our couch so the winter isn't really any better either

 

People who don’t know how to drive over toll bridges. Like where it says “don’t stop” and you either get an invoice or have a transponder, and people slow down as they pass instead of just driving

 

^ rip

 

Lol this used to be me. Idk why but it never really occurred to me to pause things until I started dating my bf. It took me a long time to get used to him rewinding things too. I always just used context clues to figure it out if I missed something

 

I've worked for my company for 3 years. I have consistently run out of work almost every Sunday. So when that happens, I email my TL and they let me know when there is more work and I log back in. Now for some reason after this happening for 3 whole years, they have decided that I need to now start making up any time I missed during the week. I'm fucking pissed. I already commit all this time to this job, I shouldn't have to commit more time bc they can't give me work to do. I really wish I had literally any other skills and could get out of this line of work completely bc I'm so sick of it.

 

Next Wednesday looks great! A well deserved cooldown

 

When someone says, “Hi, how are you?” to me but they don’t actually want a sincere answer. Like, if you don’t want to know, please don’t ask! I don’t want to do your weird little social dance

 

Hi how are you?

Me:

 

Right when I was gonna turn my light out and go to sleep, I see a big spider run under my bed. Now I’m terrified it’s gonna crawl on me and I can’t sleep!!

 

Using the word “run” instead of “crawl” makes me absolutely hate this happening and this visual so much more than I normally would / already do lol

 

It was moving so fast, run just seemed more accurate lol Idk where it even came from! Just appeared and then went straight under the bed. Then this morning there was a centipede in my shower so I’m really having bad luck with bugs!!

 

This is a terrible stretch of luck lol.

Not sure if I’m alone in this but for whatever reason when I see one bug - whether spider, ant, centipede, random other gross shit, I always assume they’re traveling in packs and immediately start looking around in panic wondering where the other two dozens monsters are. For whatever reason I never think it’s just a one-off solo trip, I always assume it’s the start of the bug war and that there must be more very close by lol

 

Someone tried to unsuccessfully steal my car on April 2nd and I still don’t have it back also every place is short staffed communication is awful and somehow in the process they destroyed my license plates while it was sitting on a lot waiting to be repaired. I don’t even know how that happens I never even got a call about it, had to find out on my own when I saw my car for the first time the other day (they told me my car was ready and it clearly wasn’t)

while process has been WILD
