Innocuous things that make you irrationally angry (a list thread)

yeah I don't see what's really wrong with it. I mean this is a culture where grown men buy Cookie Monster T-shirts and wear them at parties. the animal stuff is cute. also, kind of sexy. but, not really.

I prefer full on furry attire. Don't half ass it.

L-R frogbs, Jeff

When that finally loaded on my phone I was drinking water and it is the closest I have ever come to an actual spit take.

hahaha omg

I can't possibly the be only person who wants to know the background on that Frogs hat, can I??

I mean on the picture of him and some other guy with the hats and the matching shirts.

hahhaha

Wow, I totally forgot about that movie.

I live right next to a huge university med center, and you can drive through/around most of it on regular surface streets, since it's right in the middle of a very built up neighborhood.

At least once a week if not multiple times in the week as I drive home from work, I get trapped behind the slow-driving not-know-where-they're-going people who are looking for visitor parking/emergency entrance/general admission (on the other side of the campus)...they ALWAYS come in from the wrong side and drive soooooooo grandpa slow and put on their turn signal and just about to tur- oh, wait, not there...swerve as they look at directions on printout etc...turn signal turning her- oh, wait, not there either...round the roundabout at least twice...zzzzzz

FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

--people who see an elevator filled with a decent amount of people but with still enough room for several more people to get on, grimacing, and going "ehh, I'll just take the next one" as if it's too full to get on.

--conversely, people who don't move all the way back when they enter the elevator so even though there's plenty of room, the elevator appears full because everybody is all bunched towards the front

— elevators

elevators are the new tube trains

--people already seated in the aisle and middle seats on an airplane who, instead of getting up and moving into the aisle and letting you in (if you have the window seat), just pull their legs up and force you to squish by them.

actually almost cut myself last time that happened cuz the space was so small I tripped on the middle guy and landed hard in my seat, with my arm smacking the armrest

plane crashed too iirc

eh it happens.

I don't get the irrational hate for people waiting for the next elevator since it seems like a win/win situation for all parties. (1.) Person who waits for the next one gets to roll the dice on a more spacious elevator and if they've got the time, what's the hurry? and (2.) People already on the elevator don't have to share breathing space with that loser and get to stretch their elbows they own damn selves.

The real elevator crime is when people call multiple elevators to the floor and take the first one that arrives, leaving the others to open to an empty floor. Only works when there's at least one that is on a separate system from the rest, but I see greedy and callous people doing this in my building often.

^^i would do this

I do this as my school bc I never know whether both elevators are working.

Today someone was running for our elevator and I went to push door open and instead pushed door closed and felt terrible.

I am the "never mind" person that balks at a semi-crowded elevator. It's mainly claustrophobia. The more people in an elevator, the more anxious I get, even if there's room.

Don't worry, Jenny--I think "Door close" is a fake button in almost every single elevator.

Yeah, BUT there were a lot of ppl in the elevator and I was really laying on that button to get the door for her so it looked like I was actually trying to close it in her face. My guilt is that I could have opened the door of I pushed the correct button and also I looked like a horrible person.

People who say "i-r-l" irl; etc.

Ha ha. I have started saying "tbh" irl.

tbh in full form isn't much better, but it's a few levels less annoying than starting a sentence with "actually"

I don't care what you do re: elevators so long as you don't take it for only one floor when you appear to be physically able to take the stairs that happen to be right next to the elevator.

(hangs head)

"tbh" is only one less syllable than "to be honest"!

I don't care what you do re: elevators so long as you don't take it for only one floor when you appear to be physically able to take the stairs that happen to be right next to the elevator.

I'm not going to start carrying a cane to make you feel better about my elevator use.

Not to be a bitchorama, but don't assume you know what the health needs of a person are just by looking at him/her.

Sorry, making ppl assumptions about strangers' health and getting indignant based on those assumptions is one of my big pet peeves. Not trying to pick a fight or nothing.

I just like riding empty elevators

oh god me too.

lololol

I'll take the elevator one floor sometimes. Depends on how much I've damaged my legs running that week. And for the most part I look able bodied.

I don't understand why I enjoyed that cartoon.

I stopped buggin over able-bodied-looking people taking the elevator one floor b/c like Jenny said, appearances are deceptive, plus really, if an a gold medalist in Olympic stair climbing decides to take the elevator 1 flight up or down, it's no big deal to me.

Ha ha. I have started saying "tbh" irl.

My wife is trying to start "fwiw" as an irl thing, fwiw.

She's actually saying "eff doubleyou eye doubleyou" or pronouncing "fwiw" as a word like Madeline Kahn in Young Frankenstein?

I don't care what you do re: elevators so long as you don't take it for only one floor when you appear to be physically able to take the stairs that happen to be right next to the elevator.

I thought this was America!

Maybe eff-dub-eye-dub (xp)

Don't we already have enough dubstep subgenres already?

the second "already" was for double the emphasis and/or ruining my joke

Just walked out of a luggage shop because the luggage proprietor kept chasing us around the luggage displays shoving luggage in our faces

i was crossing the street today at a marked intersection and some douchebag who was speeding actually honked at me like i was in his way. it was like "please stop doing this legal thing so i can continue to do my illegal thing."

you were walking and that was california
