1. Repeating a rant from the GBS OSHA thread: Dickheads who can't tear themselves away from their phone for five minutes when they're driving. Either come to a complete stop somewhere and fiddle with your loving phone or put it the gently caress down and drive like a grown adult. 2. Dickheads who put everyone in danger on a two way road because they're such VIPs with so very important schedules that nobody is driving fast enough to suit them, so they cross the other lane (for traffic going the other way) like a colossal loving rear end in a top hat. No, I'm not talking about when there's a legitimately slow driver, but passing every single person who dares to be driving in front of you because you didn't grow up past the age of five. gently caress you.

My pet peeve is the word "populism." It seems to be entirely a tool for saying "policies people like" but in a bad way. Did we lose track of the idea that adopting policies that are broadly popular is the loving point of democracy, or did we just finally accept that the US isn't a democracy, or...?

How do so many youtube shorts still manage to be too loving long? "Did you know [video title]?" followed by an overly long elaboration. One I just watched didn't use pronouns for some reason. It said the same persons name about 7 times in 40 seconds.

It’s deliberate and a cynical way to associate ring wing assholes with actual popularity. It’s also erasure of the very real and very cool post-civil-war Populist Party, which started as an integrated Farmer’s alliance against usury and capitalist exploitation and for fiat currency (as there wasn’t enough actual currency available, leading to abuses by those that had it) and direct election of senators. Farmers used to be radicals in the US, but that history is intentionally ignored. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farmers%27_Alliance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People%27s_Party_(United_States) The Ocala Demands posted:

I always hate when I get a nosebleed in a public place and people start giving advice as it's always the same terrible advice, like "Lean your head back" - no, I hold it forward as otherwise I get a ton of blood running down my throat. Also it feels like it clots faster towards the front of the nostril even if it is annoying. I have had so many nosebleeds throughout my childhood that I've kind of got the hang of it.

Nosebleeds loving suck. I got one on the second day of my new job, in a meeting with a bunch of senior internal and external people. I had to dash to the toilets and wait for it to end, and I'm pretty sure I managed to style it out but still... It sucks so much to just be sat there normally and then, oh whoops, there's blood gushing down your face, sorry about that.

No joke, lots of nose bleeds as a teenager. One uncomfortable treatment later and I haven't had a spontaneous nosebleed since.

People saying, "I've been a loyal customer," to a brand. I think usually what they really mean is just that they haven't changed to another service provider in a while, but that term, "loyal customer" is so fuckin gross.

Flying an airline where everyone gets two checked bags for free and still everyone's fighting for a place to put their carry-on. Why do you need 30 pounds of poo poo for a 2 hour flight? Check that bag and get a backpack that fits under the seat. I mean, if you have a lovely boarding group it's probably going to get gate checked anyway.

If your side rear-view mirror is angled so far in that I can read your lips from directly behind you, you need to angle it out more. Your center mirror is already showing you what's directly behind you, the side mirror is supposed to show you what's behind you and to the side! Hold music shouldn't exist, and ABSOLUTELY shouldn't be interrupted every 40 seconds by a smarmy message telling me how much my time is valued and advertising some new service. These things combined make it all but impossible to do anything else for the 60-90 minutes that I am on hold, unless it requires literally zero attention at all. Just give me a low tone, or at the most something extremely slow and ambient. Muscle Tracer has a new favorite as of 15:09 on May 2, 2024 |

Checking a bag costs 50+ dollars and their size chart for carry ons are criminal. I bring a backpack and use a space bag to turn a weeks worth of cloths into a tiny little compressed thing. gently caress yoh frontier and your evil ways

I've been a not-entirely-consistent vegetarian for the last few years, and for some reason in that time I have developed an intolerance to beef. Like, even trace amounts of beef or beef fat in what I eat will give me awful indigestion and stomach pain for hours afterwards. This has led to two peeves : 1. Turns out lots of stuff is made in restaurants with beef fat (e.g. roast potatoes) that they don't tell you about, so therefore ; 2. I have to tell waiters that I can't eat beef, and this is almost always met with a funny look or a laugh because people think I'm joking and/or being weird.
