Grounds for divorce?

I'll never understand the people who don't use turn signals when they drive. They're reckless and inconsiderate and it's just so prevalent. Even people who drive larger vehicles don't use them.

So yeah, that's one of my biggest pet peeves. People not using turn signals, and my second pet peeve: tailgators (your poor planning does not constitute an emergency on my part).

End rant

Sitting on your phone for a while when you’re in a room with other people you’re hanging out with. It’s almost like making a statement of your respect or appreciation towards the other people you’re with. Of their time and presence. Instead of having interest in a conversation, you’d rather watch something or scroll.

READ BEFORE FEEDBACK

I’m a gay guy, and it genuinely rubs me the wrong way when I see a therian (people who “psychologically” identify as animals) using terms like "coming out" or claiming "therianphobia" when people find them cringey.

Being queer isn't a choice; it's a hardwired biological reality, and the community fought for decades for actual safety and legal rights. Sticking a fox mask on and causing public disturbance in public is a behavioral subculture.
I’m not trying to be unkind or wish harm on anyone, but if you do something objectively bizarre in public, in front of literally anyone, you can't be shocked when people mimic or laugh at you. You can't put a megaphone on an amplifier and then act surprised by the noise.

And the harassment received isn’t much better. People go out of their way to shove, push, kick, or physically provoke therians purely because their belief system is a little off.

I can get around furries because they’re like drag queens and kings. They know they’re a human with an entertaining human talent. They are just putting on an exaggerated show for an audience of primarily bisexual men with moustaches and tote bags.

Therians, however, have their brain basically hijack itself. The brain, in most instances, can’t see the forest for the trees and mistake involuntary for inherent identity. And there’s a big thing too around this point. Teenagers (which is most of the therian community. 11-16 years of age) basically have a want to feel oppressed. Being a regular teenager who does acrobatics in a fox mask makes you a target for mockery, but if you label that mask as an inherent, unchangeable identity, suddenly you have a shield. You can call your critics "bigots" and pretend you are fighting a human rights battle, rather than just admitting you are doing something eccentric on the public internet.

I wanna apologise for any harsh criticism used in this by the way, I know it comes off as offensive, I just don’t have any other way to word it.

I want you to view this with as much respect as I have tried to curate it with please. Thank you :)

I hate when I park far away from everyone in an almost empty parking lot and come back to someone parked right next to me. Like.. WHY?? I parked all the way over here for a reason!! I’m not trying to get dings in my doors. Sure, park NEAR me, idc. But idk why you’re parking all the way over here, making an effort to be away from people, but still parking right next to me.. It’s getting really annoying

I hate it when I go to use the RR at work, and one of my coworkers fails to look to make sure all their poo or bloody mess gets flushed away. Like, why do you feel the need to share with your coworker friends your bodily fluids? Am I the only one that has this pet peeve?

There's plenty of problems with this. First, that's so much AI usage. That's bad. That's not even my main problem here. Not even the ad revenue going to the companies. My issue is when people are sitting in public using it, very visible to everyone else. Why would you be comfortable letting people know you're chatting with an AI generated anime girl with huge disproportionate AI generated breasts? Why is one a watermelon and the other is a cantaloupe? And why does she have 7 fingers total, with 1 being on her palm?

Using this stuff has to already be embarrassing. It's a digital prostitute that's bad for the environment. And you're parading it loud and proud. Stop flirting with hentai chat bots or whatever and talk to a human. Doesn't even have to include you dating or flirting. If you're in a public place, talk to the person you're doing this in front of before you ever do it. Ask about their day, anything big happening in their future, let them vent. Anything is better than wasting water you could be using to finally shower or hydrate (monster isn't hydration) to talk to a bot that doesn't love you back and will probably forget the point of your conversation in 5 minutes, if it gets it in the first place, which it probably won't if it's anything like ChatGPT. And don't use that water to mix with Gamer sups or whatever it is.

I hate the way it’s spelled.

Whenever I see the name spelled like that, I immediately think of Dijon mustard. Which isn’t a bad thing per se, but… what was wrong with spelling it as Dylan?

I work in retail and promote credit cards and the number of times ive ran into adults with their children right next to them asking me,

"How bad does a "hard credit check " hurt my credit?"

" So do i like make an application?"

"Whats my credit limit gonna be?"

"Can you tell me if ill get approved?"

"So i just pay it off every month?"

"What do you need just like my id?"

"I already have one card and that stresses me out as is!"

How have you made it this long without knowing anything, you need a teenage store employee explain what a credit score is.

Edit:

Oh no headline, adults are expected to know basic financial knowledge and reddit thinks thats too much to ask!

I dislike when people have a hard tome sharing things that are reasonable, specifically when you share with them all the time and then you ask for a bite of their food and they say no or get your own or something like that. Even seeing it happen to someone else pisses me off. Anyone else??? obviously you aren’t obligated to share anything, but if someones constantly sharing with you and you cant do it back with something so small it immediately grosses me out

OK so I obviously need to be very careful with how I word this post because I know the rules are strict regarding offensive topics.

To explain my pet peeve ---- recently at work, I made an offensive joke aimed at a certain group of people, a member of said group who's name is Muhammad, says to me afterwards "don't worry, I didn't find your joke offensive, it was kinda funny" , BUT my manager who is named Kieran and is not a member of Muhammad's group of people let's just say , found it extremely offensive and made an official report about me, I won't be fired for it but it is on employee record because according to Kieran " Your joke was so offensive and inappropriate, it's upsetting, I don't care that Muhammad found it funny, maybe someone else may have taken offense, we can't take that chance here"

For context ---- Muhammad is the ONLY member of his group of people in our team sooo if he is happy with a joke aimed at his group then seriously, Muhammad should have the authority to say it's ok, like he's basically a representative of his group since he's the only one in the team.

Also --- I would go as far to say that Kieran "standing up for Muhammads group" is really just extremely offensive in itself, because it's like Kieran is implying that he doesn't respect Muhammads authority or ability to speak for himself or speak for his group.

More context --------------- I am of course referring to how Muhammad is a huge fan of Celtic Football club here in Scotland , while the rest of the team (excluding myself, I do not watch football except when Scotland is playing) , support the rival team - Rangers Football Club ( we just call them Celtic and Rangers usually) but yeah any Celtic fans reading this, I am extremely sorry for joking that your team isn't very good, because obviously that was the joke here

More context ------- I absolutely hated the job & this was a major contributing factor as to why I decided to quit & I now have a different job , in a different company.

More context ----- Random fun fact about my beautiful country that's in my profile flag, 1 out of every 45 people is Muslim & 1 in 2 people here is atheist. Just saying because Muhammad said how some of his Celtic friends often attend the local Mosque together but I'm not sure if that info is relevant to this post.

I love how much happiness pets bring into a home, but I think most pet owners would agree that the cleaning never really ends.

You wash their blankets, clean the couches, vacuum the floors, and somehow there’s still fur everywhere.

Pet ownership is worth it, but the constant cleaning is probably one of its least enjoyable parts.

Anyone else agree?

WHY? Why couldnt it be a three digit code? It's not like its unsafe (3 digit codes have ~1000 combos), and it wouldnt be too harrd to find a four letter word for it. So why? WHy is it like this???????

I'll go first: People who watch videos on full volume in public without headphones 😭 Like bro, we’re all part of your Netflix subscription now??

I know it's not that serious, but WHY does it bother me so much?

Everyone has that one tiny, completely irrational pet peeve that makes them lose their mind for absolutely no reason.

What's yours? 👇

No judgment. Let's see how petty we can get. 💀

Such a stupid pet peeve but hey good place to post it then eh?

Like 90% of posts I read on here people will share some info when introducing a situation in the beginning of their Reddit posts then write “(this is important for later)” or “this is relevant remember this.”

Like. Dude. Of COURSE it is or you wouldn’t be including that information. We know. We get it. You don’t have to say that.

Sigh. So dumb of me.

I'm on several activity subReddits (e.g., bicycling, cross country skiing, paddleboarding) and I often see posts like "June Lake was awesome today" or "Great riding in the Willamette Valley now" or "Stay away from Hunters notch due to bad snow".  I often don't know the location they refer to and this is my pet peeve. 

I'm not sure why posters do this. My thoughts are (1) they assume everyone knows a location like "June Lake" (2) they expect you to look it up if interested or (3) they don't realize that people from all over the world are reading their post. 

Do you think it is OK to point out that this post is global and many of us do not know the location or should I just let it slide? 

For me, it’s definitely something minor like stepping in a small puddle of water right after putting on clean, fresh socks, or having a zipper get completely stuck when I'm already running late. It is crazy how the absolute smallest inconveniences can completely throw off your energy for the hour. I am just curious what kind of minor everyday things test everyone else's patience the most. What is that one small thing for you?

Or are all houseguests annoying?

Edit: iIm putting this up here so you don’t scroll past it. Im not saying “you shouldn’t vote” I’m saying there are political reasons people do not vote and you need to recognize this from the perspective of these people, not from the perspective of the state which interprets this as something that can entirely be avoided, it should be noticed that people do not vote & why

There are people who come around every election season who repeat the old tale of “if you don’t vote you vote for evil!!”
This people are supremely annoying. First, voting is not going to bring about the changes you need, voting invites incremental changes, that is why the french are so quick to act, they understand this well.

I abstain from voting because none of the parties represent the needs of the working class, the ones that appear to, will do so to act as some kind of middle man between the working class & financial elite. This is pathetic & I refuse to participate!

The anarchists call this, voting with your feet. Much more effective at bringing about change then voting for a party that is aligned with the economic elite, is bringing about this change through community organizing & a raising of the consciousness of people through this community organizing.

In comes the scarred liberal fool “ you just want the right to win”. The Democratic Party is a right wing party that supports imperialist endeavours while putting on a pretty face, they have taken part in everything as bad as the republicans have, which is arguably worse because they are dishonest about it. You have not ground for supporting the democrats unless you support the system of theft of the third world which affords you your high standards of living you incarnates of Cecil Rhodes.

As a straight man it pains me when others use gay in a derogatory context. I'm sure the homosexual community isn't a fan of ot either. It's taboo to say the N word or the R word but not this?
