Good Question!

I am fed up with being fed this line. The first time I heard it I appreciated the acknowledgement. Now, I hear it all the time and I take it as an attempted calming mechanism.

Thank you for your question! I'm going to ignore it or provide an answer that doesn't address the issue but my acknowledging it should make you warm and fuzzy.

People don't know the difference between "transparent" and "translucent"

I see people all the time using those 2 words interchangeably, translucent means u can partially see through it, ex; regular white paper, and transparent means u can see through it completely, ex; a clean window

Have you guys ever been running down a flight of stairs and suddenly it feels like you tore your Achilles, but you know it's like a 2 minute sprain?

You know what I'm talking about. The little area above your heel just feels like it was pulled/snapped and you literally did nothing wrong but go down a flight of steps too quick.

Then you limp to the nearest place you can sit and wonder if THIS is the time you really broke it for good even though it's seems to happen a couple of times every year.

It's not just me right?

Stolen sandwich

In Sault Ste Marie Ontario I was helping with a course over the weekend. The course was in the conference room of a hotel. As the students were writing their exam, lunch was delivered to the hallway, those that finished could go and grab food before hitting the road. I heard something in the hallway and then a small laugh, I look out and there is a couple (I assume from the hotel), they are walking with their young kid and the dude is eating one of the sandwiches and walking out. It seems so minor but has been annoying me all week. It wasn’t like they needed the food, it was clearly ‘funny’ to them. They drove away when I tried to go and talk to them and I just get annoyed thinking of their smug faces. Thanks for letting me vent.

Slideshow articles

I genuinely can't stand those clickbait slideshow articles that the writers attempt to pass off as news one paragraph at a time. They always start off with the first few times you click that next button each paragraph gives you the meat and potatoes of the story. Then just as you finally think your gonna find out what happened, , suddenly the story to what the narrator ate for breakfast that day and how many blocks they had to walk to work as your forced to click 15 more times before they finally tell you that this dude was lying about his gf smelling bad and forcing her to shower 3 times a day to lower herself esteem and trick her into thinking she couldn't do any better

I get they're paid by the click, but IMHO this is by far the shittest thing to exist on the internet and these "authors" should lose their privilege of internet access for this trash they put out.

Boyfriend plays his coffee machine game to perfection.

I drink a lot of tea, but my boyfriend is a coffee fiend. He drinks at least 6 cups a day-and it has to be the BEST coffee (it costs nearly £30 a bag of beans). He has the most fancy-pants beans-to-cup machine. Can’t lie: the smell is gorgeous. However, he’s telepathically connected to his machine-and it’s mildly annoying.

He usually makes his own coffee, but whenever I make him a cup, his machine ALWAYS needs something. Just now I made him one: the water tank needed filling -and the grounds tray needed emptying (a messy job).

Somehow, my boyfriend KNOWS when his machine is just about to need something-and he manages to hypnotise me into making him coffee the next time, so I have to do it. The first indication that it needs anything is when it starts peeping just as I begin to make a brew.

The other day (I’m not making this up) it needed descaling, a new filter, the grounds emptying-and more water. He SOMEHOW KNEW that was about to happen.

And he’s just sitting there with his “I’m soooo thirsty, wouldn’t a lovely girlfriend offer to make me a coffee?” eyes unconsciously persuading me to do it.

Works every time. Irritating.

So inaccurate - the last two minutes of my washing machine's cycle takes literally 12 minutes

Seriously, why can't this be accurate?? Is it not minutes, but stages? If it's stages, why is it 30 for perm press and 45 for heavy duty? I'm baffled - anyone else with this problem?

Lack of professionalism on the internet.

You've seen it, some dick pulls rank by pulling his credentials, usually a P.H.D. or high paid business person. All to bolster a pissing contest on the level of a middle schooler.

You want to tell them to grow the fuck up, they should be smart enough to realize they're dragging theid credentials through the mud along with everyone else who worked hard to get to where they are.

Life, the universe, and everything.

One of my habits is to ask questions that I feel would be obvious to others, but isn't obvious to me. The questions usually touch on human motivations, realpoltiks, unspoken rules, established social norms and reasons for them, the necessity of authority, the steps taken to assure we can never have another fourth Reich, ect ect.

For you very basic things, for me they go well over my head as I fail to understand why, for example, a politician would lie and the public would accept these things. I certainly understand the need to lie, and the advantage of doing so, but my assumption is that the general public is well aware they are being lied to and accept it. And a further assumption is the best and brightest in a society are all completely aware of the games of social politics, and keep each other in line.

So yeah, that's my mild annoyance. Basic existential questions most people know the answers to and refuses to share with people like.me.

Corporate world now using TL;DR

and they aren’t even using it right! They have TL;DR at the top of an email followed by 3 paragraphs. Excuse me Sharon, that’s not how that works. End of my mildly annoyed rant.

People make snow angels without arms

Snow angels should have arms. Every snow Angel I made as a kid has arms because I made the wings small and pressed the arms in between that space. Seriously do people not have to the time to make a perfect snow Angel?

Links in Wikipedia

I wish Wikipedia wasn't so averse to having duplicate hyperlinks on it's pages.

For example, if a page is for a movie, the star's name might be hyperlinked in the first paragraph of the page, but it the cast list it's not linked. Or for an album, the singles might be linked at the top of the page, but not in the track listing section.

I understand not linking in every instance, but give us more links!
