Spotify's DJ feature. I know how you work, stop telling me how you "work". "Here's a new song by a band I know you listen to. They didn't do any pre-releases because they wanted people to listen to the whole album from start to finish. Alright, here's [track 3]!"

I just hate it when I have a Spotify playlist set to repeat, I close the app, it turns off repeat, gets to the end of the playlist and “oh here’s some poo poo that we think you’ll like” It just annoys the poo poo out of me whenever a computer second guesses me.

One that I only just realized enough to put into words: when a piece of media I don't like, or just aren't interested in, is so algorithmically adjacent to media I do like that I can't escape it on certain platforms. I'm not interested in Final Fantasy XVI, and I think anyone reasonably sane and balanced who hears the things I like and dislike about games would recognize and agree that's not gonna change. ...but because I do like other Final Fantasy games, especially XIV, there's times where it's just completely impossible to tune it out on some social media or news feeds. (And then I have the reflex where the longer that goes on the less I can just quickly go 'I'm not interested' and feel like I have to beef up my reasoning, which nobody likes, but that's a me problem.) Recently it's started happening with Baldur's Gate 3, which annoys me less but I can't entirely say why just yet. I feel like this must be the same problem faced by people who like the Spider-Verse movies but not the MCU.

People that can’t take cardinal directions Especially bc this is the US. The whole city is a grid lined up with impossible to avoid water features. If you know “go to the River” you know “go south on st Ferdinand” but no motherfuckers gotta be like “right or left tho” You are 35 learn your directions  Slightly less annoying than in NYC where the literal East River couldn’t clue in some people

Thanks to this I've gotten very aware of the sun constantly. Just know the rough time of the day and look at your shadow. And it's kinda fun to be like "ok it's 3pm and I need to south so I should keep the sun there"

Related peeve: I hate that my directions have to include caveats like “look out on Saint Claude because someone in a lifted truck will aim for you because you dared to walk somewhere” Kill car culture and imprison anyone with a pristine truck

I just don't get it but I wish them well when they get lost while foraging for provisions at the costco Jesus. I have an absolutely terribly sense of direction, but even I am not THAT bad. I figured out last time this topic came up that I can keep track of cardinal directions if I pay attention, but it's just flat out not the way I learned to navigate and I'm sure the same is true for a lot of people. But motherfucker I can absolutely get to places I've been to a few times without a GPS. Double especially between work and home. I usually use the GPS in case there's really bad traffic and it would be honestly faster to take the side roads in certain places, but how do people live like that? How do they have so little awareness that they couldn't even get to a place that they go every stinking day without directions?! I have the worst sense of direction on the planet (so I thought!) and even I find that inconceivable!

My wife puts on the GPS if she's "unsure" but I hate it because it's on her phone which she also has plugged in playing songs, so a good-rear end song will be interrupted in the middle of the best part IN ONE HUNDRED FEET, TURN LEFT BY STAYING IN THE LEFT LANE

In Everquest if you wanted to know which way was North you'd just place a sword on the ground. It would always align itself pointing North Then again the entire planet was called North. Or something close to that.

If you asked me how to get to anywhere in my area I could point in the direction of it and tell you exactly how to get there, but I wouldn't even be able to guess at whether the destination is north or south of the starting point. I just don't think of things in terms of a map view.

I have mine set up this way and it would drive my coworker nuts that he couldn't understand the gps map. We also did a fair amount of mapping in our jobs. Some people just can't seem to get it.

We take our puppy to the park by the river every day before church. Foster puppy, she’s going to go to dog college and be a service dog. And every sunday morning, like clockwork, same dude lets his dog off leash and it charges and attacks her and he’s all “oh sorry no, no! Down! He never does this!” Yes. He always does. It’s been months of this dude. And just fyi there are giant signs explaining it’s a crime to let your dog off leash in this urban park. I’m not calling the cops but come on. If nothing else you should be worried about a car hitting your loving dog rear end in a top hat. And bc she’s a service puppy, every time it happens we have to submit paperwork to the organization in charge of her about her interaction with rando dog

There's a regular customer at my job whose dog is sacred because it has a service vest. It's one of those little long-haired lap dogs and it goes absolutely wild barking at random people every time she comes in and every time she, too, says "he never does this" Another work pet peeve is people who, instead of approaching me and asking for help finding an item like a human person, will stand somewhere up the aisle and proclaim loudly to nobody "I guess this place just doesn't sell [whatever poo poo they're looking for]"

I live in an apartment complex and thus have the joy of a parking lot right outside my residence. Both of my neighbors pull up into the parking spot as far as their wheels will take them, scraping the front ends of their car over the curb every time they pull in or back out. It's one of those sounds that sends a chill down my spine, and I just don't understand why you'd do that anyway? You save about a foot of distance. It's not nearly as annoying as the neighbor down the street who revs the engine of his deliberately noisy car every time he comes and goes, which is five or six times a day. His license plate reads "LOUD (name of car)", so not only is he a respectful neighbor, he's also a creative genius.

New peeve: being cancer dude Having terminal cancer in my 20s already sucks and hurts, metaphorically and literally it loving hurts. Ouch ! But what really annoys me is I can’t mention it without becoming Cancer Dude. I’m stupid and opinionated for so many reasons besides my failing organs. I appreciate sympathy but like cmon, mock me for being able to sing the whole of In the Heights or for dipping my pizza in ranch or anything but the cancer

Pretty sure I've bitched ITT about websites that make the new account button a lot more prominent than the login button, but now I'm seeing more sites that go a step further and have the login button link you to the new account creation form and another link from there to login to an existing account.

I don't care the Barbie movie one way or the other; its marketing has been obnoxiously aggressive from day one (Pepto pink everywhere). But thanks to the never ending culture wars, everyone "has" to have an opinion on it. My pet peeve isn't the movie itself but the fact that everything is another flashpoint in the culture war these days.

The only thing I know about Barbie are just the things Ben Shapiro and conservatives are offended by. I know not a single thing about the movie other than who is in it and that it has something to do with taking down the patriarchy, because the culture war drowns out everything else. I'm just adding to the conversation, I guess. This isn't a pet peeve of mine. I don't care about the movie one way or the other, but it looks fun! e: you know what is a goddamn pet peeve, is people who answer binary questions with "yes" because they think they're so fuckin clever and funny. Is Ben Shapiro a robot or just an insecure man? Yes lol credburn has a new favorite as of 21:49 on Aug 7, 2023 |
