White men. Other thing: people who can't take a loving hint that you're not interested in what they're talking about. Went with my boyfriend to a silly card game thing at the local gaming shop, but the people we ended up playing against would not stop loving talking about the really dull nuances of magic the gathering. Bruh, I am here to play this stupid gnome game. I don't wanna hear about card triggers or whatever. And no amount of changing the subject would deter them. Awful.

I've got dairy intolerance but I still eat it because I hate myself and love cheese. Farts for the fart throne. That said, I also hate people who claim to have allergies for things they just don't like. Had a minor panic attack the other day because an aquaintance said they were allergic to shellfish as they were eating my fried rice, which I make with shrimp. Turns out, no, not an actual allergy, they're just not super fond of shrimp. And that's why they're not invited to hang out anymore.

All cheese, I can't drink milk. Lactase (sp?) does nothing. Of I eat or drink anything with dairy in it, it's cramp time. And horrible farts time.

Personal little thing: people who make a HUGE loving PRODUCTION over small problems easily solved. I just had to break up a fight between two grown-rear end women because the tv remote's batteries died, and instead of just going and getting new batteries, they decided that screaming at each other for the better part of an hour was a better solution. S'not that hard to do problem solving. The TV isn't responding to remote! Change batteries! Is problem solved? GOOD.

Then you actually do that and are immediately bombarded by half a dozen popups and random bullshit that's at best aggressively annoying (like those that load a full-page ad into your current tab and displace the original page into a secondary tab) and at worst straight-up dangerous (crashing your browser, being a potential risk of virus infection) and you quickly remember why having an ad-blocker is pretty much mandatory these days. yeah I don't mind unobtrusive ads like the ones on the LP archive, but very few places use nice, unobtrusive ads. I also hate the stupid sites where it's like "SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER/MAKE AN ACCOUNT TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE" well, I'm not going to do that, and now I'm also never going to come back to this site.

Pretty much. Also, from life experience- hanging around creepy people who make you uncomfortable in an effort not to rock the boat isn't worth it. Life's too short to spend time around people like that. Currently, I do not spend time or allow my own BF's bestie in my house, because he sends me into a seething rage within five minutes of being around me. My BF is free to spend time with him whenever he pleases, just not in my home. It works out pretty good.

I don't use my given name so when I tell people (who don't need to know my birthname/deadname for filing purposes) what it is, they always insist "No, what's your name". I just told you it. That's the name I use. I don't wanna use my deadname. Quit making this awkward and annoying.

BioEnchanted posted:I think it's for emphasis - don't call me x, x no longer exists. It's not a matter of preference, x is dead. There is no x anymore. Going with "preferred" name or something less drastic may result in people not quite 'getting' it. Pretty much this. People view it more like a "oh they won't mind if I use this name, they just like the other name better" instead of "if I use this name I'm being a giant shithead and misgendering them".

I don't speak for all trans people, obv, just my experience. It's mostly about gently convincing cis-people to take you more seriously. That sounds harsh, but that's the long and short of it. A lot of cis people, even if they're not transphobic assholes, don't get a lot of what trans people do to feel more comfortable in a world where most people want us dead or to "suck it up". So in order to get across the seriousness of the transition and the need to be recognized as the person you are, you use terms like "deadname" and the like. Yes, there's always going to be some dick who will misgender you/misname you, but for those that are more understanding and supportive but maybe "don't get it", it takes a little impressing about the seriousness of the situation. It's not that these are my preferred pronouns or my preferred name, These *are* my pronouns, this *is* my name. And to some trans people, that person they were is "dead". Personally, I'm working through how I relate to myself both through the lens of trauma that's happened to me and through the lens of transition and coming to terms with my gender and presentation. I wouldn't say that the old me is "dead", but she's not here and is gone at this point. On top of that I identify as nonbinary which has its own can of worms, so there's that, too. As for legally changing names, in a lot of places it's very difficult for trans people to get their documentation to be changed. There's a lot of lovely gatekeeping and practices. Some people can't get there, or it's taking a while. Some people just don't feel the need to get their documents changed/name changed. It depends on the person. Personally, I haven't settled completely on a new name yet, so changing my name at this point would be iffy on if I'd keep it. Better to wait until I'm sure.

People who won't loving listen when you're trying to tell them how to do something. I don't mind showing someone less computer savvy how to fix a problem on their computer, unless they're an rear end in a top hat who will not listen. "Okay, you click here, then click this. There you go, that's how you get to your email." "It wasn't there before!" "yes, but now it is. so from now on-" "BUT IT WASN'T THERE BEFORE"

I've never gotten that, either. I'm not good at math and it haunts me every day. I don't like feeling like an idiot because it takes me twice as long to do simple problems.  The numbers always jump around on me, so 32 is 23 or whatever. Takes me ages to do simple maths because of it. I always feel like the biggest idiot and get all flushed and flustered and it takes even longer andit's just miserable.

This is one of the things I still foster resentment towards my mom for. My mom's a fairly awesome lady, but she smoked both while pregnant with me and as I was growing up. As a result, my lungs are absolute trash, even after a surgery that was supposed to fix it. I get sick constantly with bronchitus, pneumonia, general chest colds... Also I got bullied constantly as a kid for smelling like cigarettes because she did (and still does) smoke like a chimney.
