    What annoys you?

    Inconsiderate jerks who utilize their cell phones and other gadgets on max volume without headphones in confined places like buses. Had another commute ruined this morning by a Parent who let his kid watch his ADD-inducing crap on his iPad full blast. Funny thing is, nobody said anything. People...

    What annoys you?

    People who religiously follow trends because "everybody else is doing it". Sameness. People don't think for themselves. For instance, 12 year old girls started wearing lumberjack PJ bottoms everywhere they go, probably because their favorite teenybopper crooner was doing it so now everybody's...

    What annoys you?

    People who get REALLY close to me, literally inches from my face, when they want to chat or show me stuff on their phones. I get very self-conscious when that happens and just don't like it. Never did.

    I'm annoyed that I can't find peanut butter and jelly spread in any supermarket. Did they stop making it?

    What annoys you?

    Last night I was reminded why I hate shopping at Brick & Mortars. Aside from the crowds and long lines, department stores DO NOT accommodate the plus-sized among us unless you're in a specialty retailer. They never have. Everything they have on hand seems to be geared towards people shaped like...

    What annoys you?

    Those huge advertising decals they slap on the sides of commuter buses are supposed to be transparent from the inside so people can see what's outside the window. On my buses the decals actually obscure the view. Aside from getting my bearings, I like to look at the world passing me by on that...

    Ads for hair loss products featuring....drumroll...dudes with full heads of hair LMAO. Just saw one on Faceplantbook for something called "hims". All the men in the ad were in their 20's and all had full heads of hair. First of all, there is NO cure for baldness. The only thing that stops hair...

    What annoys you?

    I work in the Security field so part of my job as a Doorman is to watch who's coming and going. The chain smokers drive me nuts. How do these people get any work done if they're outside smoking every 5 minutes?

    I'm moving to Canada!

    What annoys you?

    1) I don't like sitting next to strangers. Do unto others and all that. 2) I said I was a big guy, not girthy. I, for one, have common sense.

    I'd hate to see your hospital bill :oops:

    What annoys you?

    Large folks who insist on cramming all their girth into seats next to me on my commute. I'm a big guy myself so it's doubly annoying, especially on those tiny loveseats on public buses.

    What annoys you?

    I find current fashion trends annoying. Ladies look like gym rats in their sleek tights. One-size-too-small suits, neon socks (or no socks yuck) and highwater pants are NOT a good look for Men, especially chunky ones. Where do these trends come from and why are people so sheepish to follow them...

    What annoys you?

    The USPS has a bad habit of scanning packages as "Delivered" when it's not true. 99% of the time it does get delivered eventually but that's not the point. What if a carrier "forgets" to deliver the package and it sits at a sorting facility for days on end - I'll have no recourse to file a claim...

    What annoys you?

    I went through hell earlier this year after I lost my phone and got a new one with a different number. I couldn't get into my Amazon account because the stupid 2-Step Verification thing, which I hadn't realized was turned on, kept sending the codes to my old phone. I was essentially locked out...

    What annoys you?

    I've pretty much given up on modern "music" so I stick with oldies, which, for me, are 1985-1995. This morning while buying breakfast at Mickey D's I hear a song on the PA system. All I can make out is what I assume is the song's title, "Trust Fund Baby". The rest sounds exactly like every other...

    What annoys you?

    Jersey City is one other such place. Packages just linger there for days without reason. It's like they get delivered to the facility, get dumped in a corner somewhere and someone just forgets about them. Then a few days later someone goes, "Oh, look, there a few packages laying around back...

    What annoys you?

    Endless waits for packages to arrive. A package from Shout Factory picked up by the carrier, USPS, on March 15th, still hasn't made its way to me. According to tracking, it spent 6 days in one facility alone. Is that crazy or what?

    What annoys you?

    Other than for attention-seeking purposes, what actual real-world applications does altering the engine of a car to make it sound like a motorcycle have? I live near a busy parkway and all night long all I hear are normal car engines zooming by, then once in a while a car rolls by that sounds...

    What annoys you?

    People who, while walking, stop cold to play with their phones and don't step off to the side, out of the way of pedestrian traffic People who play video games or watch movies/Youtube on their phones at Max volume without headphones, especially in the early AM or evenings on a bus or train...

    Can't wait until Winter is over. It's been relatively mild all season in my neck of the woods but I'm tired of seeing goofy hats with fuzzy balls :cool:

    What annoys you?

    I try not to wear shorts in public too much lol. They used to make me feel kinda naked in public any place that wasn't a beach, pool or park - these days not so much but I do try to avoid wearing them unless it's like 100 degrees. I wear them around the house all the time, though - even in the...

    What annoys you?

    Goofy trends (yes, that again). Grown men walking around in shorts in Winter. Temps in the 30's. Guys, seriously - what are you trying to prove? You look ridiculous.

    What annoys you?

    Why do news organizations even need a weather dept.? "Breaking" weather, like hurricanes and other life-threatening events are indeed newsworthy but anyone can access endless "regular" weather sources on apps or online 24 hours a day. The National Weather Service, the only weather organization I...

    What annoys you?

    People who drag their feet when they walk. They're like those people who like the sound of their own voices - they love the sound of their shoes dragging along the floor. It's the epitome of laziness.

    What annoys you?

    I don't even watch the news on TV anymore but if I ever get back into the habit, I'm going with PBS. No commercials and totally devoid of sensationalism. Wait, do they even still have the MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour? :-)

    What annoys you?

    Oh, not those caterpillars lol, talking about the fake eyelashes women wear. It's amazing how much influence musicians/rappers have on people. That's where these strange trends come from
  28. cineMANIAC

    What annoys you?

    Caterpillar eyebrows, people walking around in Summer attire in the dead of Winter (probably a Hipster fad), those same people lugging gallons of water around with them wherever they go, women who dress up in gym tights wherever they go. A lot of goofy human behavior has been annoying me lately.

    What annoys you?

    So many scary cold weather stories. But what boggles my mind is why people decide to venture out in such conditions. Does it have anything to do with holding on to your youth and being a daredevil? Lol.

    What annoys you?

    It's almost as if they're upset that I paid it off so they're "cutting me off" to prevent me from using it lol. I know, it's absurd, but I'm just flabbergasted. It's one of those low limit "second chance" cards.
