Edgar Allen Ho posted:My best friend in Germany texted me out of the blue that it’s annoying how people in the US call it America because there are two continents called America blah blah etc In my experience as an American people call it America pretty casually and nobody I hang out with is exactly patriotic.  What is annoying is when people insist on saying “USian” or act like it’s confusing. Sorry I’m not the inventor of demonyms but it is “American.”

I'll call the citizens of the United States of America whatever they demand because they can easily shoot or bomb me. When you have nukes you make the rules.

Being called a red state what doesn’t matter at all because we are all nazi assholes annoys me. Our mayor is a democratic black woman, our governor is a democrat and he’s kind of an rear end in a top hat but he’s not a republican so there is that. But I’m supposed to feel ashamed because some hicks in Garyville voted for a fascist?

The organisation I'm doing a cert3 with has some terrible email system where they can't send standard replies, so whenever I send them a question I get the response with a new subject line and without my email (or any previous ones) quoted at the bottom so I have to go back and forth between different email chains to see the context of what they're saying. And their responses are always extremely minimal, often to the point of not even answering the question, so I always have to prompt them for more information, which makes the issue worse because I then have to go back and forth between three or more email chains to keep track of the entire discussion.

Agreed Peeve: I love having longish hair but getting out of the shower and feeling like I have a big hat on is very annoying. Chill out hair. You will dry soon. Also I’m annoyed at myself for being annoyed at my hair bc MY WIFE’s is like rear end length vs my chin length and it takes days for hers to dry

I can empathize. As a kid i had waist-length hair and it could never fully dry by the time i left the house after my morning showers, so all winter my hair would freeze on my walk to the school bus stop

Also another very niche peeve: my best friend in this world likes to text me videos of Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of1812 Just loving read War and Peace sis (it’s a complicated russian novel, everyone’s got 9 different names) and I do in fact identify way too strongly with Pierre quote:Balaga is fun Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 02:13 on Sep 12, 2023 |

---{Graphics}--- ☐ You forget what reality is The first time I saw this template for reviewing Steam games, I thought it was adorable. It reminded me of when I was like 12 and writing reviews for video games. It tries to be funny and tries to be edgy and fails at being both. The spelling, grammar, punctuation is all inconsistent. They use the term "earrape." It feels like coming home to 2003 somethingawful. So I immediately followed this guy. He reviewed all his games with this awful template. But then I saw someone else using the template. What was this? But then another, and another, and I realized this wasn't just this one kid's goofy little style, it's actually a widely used template used by lots and lots of people. It really made me lose a lot of adoration for the guy I was following. It's a pet peeve because it's an objectively awful template even for lazy people but nobody cares. Nobody cares!

I dunno if this peeve just makes me a grouch or if I'm old. Probably both! Regardless, definite peeve: People who send me messages in pieces. Like Hey Heard back on the thing! Fantastic news! It's like just send it to me all at once, please! Extra peeve when they just leave it at the last line until I respond. My brother in Christ just tell me the thing. Don't make me pry it out of you. It makes me not want to respond just out of spite, to see how long it takes them to just give up and tell me.

It's getting more and more of a pain in the rear end to migrate to a new PC. I do blame Microsoft for a lot of it--the constant badgering to use a MS account for your user account, shoving OneDrive down my throat, etc.--but there's weird poo poo in the details, like a network card setting that just...turns it off when idle?? No, goddamn you, we use this as a mail/Website server! It has to stay online! I've been upgrading computers since the 3.1 days, and this is by far the worst loving migration I have ever dealt with, and it should be straightforward as hell. Luckily I only have to do it once every decade or so. Related, because I don't know where else to ask this in prose (and AI wasn't helpful): I have my old computer connected via cable to ethernet. I have an external drive connected to the old computer. Both are working fine and accessible remotely via my laptop. I have mapped Old and External as network drives on the new computer. I open a directory on Old and the corresponding directory on New. I select files on Old and drag them to copy to New. Windows says, "Whoa, 67 of these files have the same name. What should I do?" I tell it to copy anyway. It does the Preparing to Copy thing, numerating all the files. Windows says, "Whoa, you need to give an admin OK for that." I do. It does the Preparing to Copy thing again. Windows says, "Location Old not available. Make sure it's connected, online, etc. Or maybe it's been deleted!" Bitch, it's right here! We're both looking at it! I run a reapplication of access rights to all of Old and all of External (interrupted occasionally by New going offline to "save power"  ).Same thing happens, every time.  If anyone knows what I'm missing, please, please tell me. I have a bunch of poo poo to move from Old to New and no immediately better way to do so.

Luckily I only have to do it once every decade or so. Maybe something with network & sharing in Control Panel? I saw similar behavior at my job after we upgraded to Windows 11, some peoples' machines refused to map/connect to network shares. We had to disable offline file sync in Sync Center then enable network discovery & file/print sharing then reboot to get everything connected. Could be worth checking into.

I hate when you bring up that you want to start exercising to someone and the person just assumes that you're doing it to lose weight. There is nothing wrong with wanting to exercise to lose weight, but this is often followed up by a comment on whether or not they think you "need" to lose weight and then something about your body size. I know that this isn't always intended in a lovely way but it gets really annoying. Just be like "Hey, that's great!" or something!!
