You Know What Grinds My Gears? - Things that personally piss you off

[Kiwi Lime Pie]

Companies assuming that they can send you SMS (text) messages. I cannot even call around for information about something with apparently agreeing to be put on a list.

Corollary: Companies assuming everyone has a mobile phone and/or the ability to text. I know someone who - for reasons - has a mobile phone for emergencies only and no texting service. So many places act shocked when this person tells them they can't get texts because companies seem to have the expectation they can spam you to death with text/SMS messages.

MFA (multi-factor authentication) on everything is another.

MFA make sense in some settings, but it's either misused or implemented horribly that it feels more like a curse than a blessing most of the time.

People who are always on social media and expect you to care when some nigger who played a side character 35 years ago dies, or they get upset when you won't engage in political talk.

Even though Pride Month is over, I've seen posts making the rounds this week about gay celebrities from the 70s/80s era. Sure, I recognized one or two of the names, but it's somehow bad to think of them as great actors or game show panelists because we have to instead focus on their bedroom habits that are somehow far more important when it comes to their legacy.

Thread tax: Road construction being so prevalent this summer that even the alternate routes and signed detours have construction.

It took almost twenty years, but niggers moved into my neighborhood. They've been playing their nigger music and hosting loud nigger parties over the past few weeks. I'm counting my lucky stars they don't have a dog so I don't need to worry about it digging under my fence to harass my cat when I let him out.

The area I live in is I think almost about 50/50 white and black, but the only trouble I've had with nigger behavior was when the black woman who lives in the apartment above me moved in. For the first few weeks after she did, she would blast nigger music loud enough you could clearly hear it through the walls and ceiling, and at completely random times of the day or night for often like 2 or 3 hours at a time. At one point when she was doing it I stuck my computer speakers directly against the wall and blasted Nyan Cat so loud I wouldn't be surprised if the entire building could hear it. Judging by the sounds and vibrations she made, it seems that pissed her off enough to turn her music off and leave the building entirely to, I don't know, go listen in her car or go somewhere else. I get the feeling she might have gotten some trouble from others besides just me because at some point she learned to quiet down and now the worst I hear is muffled nigger music for a bit around 10 pm once every couple months or so.

Well me.
Archive everything... And do it immediately.

Some time back there was this news story about junkie, of teen stabber killer fame, being on trial again for some stabbedy stabbing. I went and searched for this junkie's name, that for some reason was not in the news story even though he is adult already. Found it. Went and searched for social media. Found it. Videos of the degen smoking crack with his mom on Instagram. Damn I do have to archive this shit, but I just go to gym now. They are going no where, these are like 2 years old. Well forget it for couple of weeks, get back to it and they are fucking gone.

I must have been like first person watching them in ages or something as now their system was triggered to removing them. Or that news story about new stabbening got other people looking and those faggots reported them.
There still are some half worthy stuff in that instagram, but smoking crack together with mom for 10 mins is quite a lot better than film cutting just before you light the pipe as your mom hugs you and playing into your stabber killer fame by waving knives in every second picture, is not the same.
Fuck. But well I guess I learned junkie degens on Instagram exist.

People who talk about how past media is offensive, and how enjoying some movies makes someone a racist or bigot. Didn't think I was a racist until someone told me so because I liked Gone With The Wind

If, as the old saying goes, a politician’s lying the second he calls you “folks,” then the same applies to any shitheel who starts a sentence with “the REAL blackpill is…”

I’ll decide what’s a blackpill and what’s just your seasonal depression talking.

Guess the most problematic part is, where the domestic slaves despise and look down on the field slaves and on those who were bought by a ''worse'' family than their own masters'. Also that some of them stay with Scarlet instead of burning her at stake or something.

When someone has a problem. Bonus points if they created said problem. They do something to drag you into this problem or otherwise inflict its consequences on you without your consent. Bonus points if you actually said no. The steps up to this point are bad enough. No, what grinds my gears is the next step: "Oh well, no sense complaining since we're both in it now! Stop acting like you're the only one with an issue, *I'm* suffering too you know!" I DO know. YOU caused it. Everything happening here is YOUR fault.

I had one job that required a work phone, the default ringtone gives me Vietnam War-tier flashbacks.

I wouldn't even hate a work phone nearly as much, because if something doesn't work it's not up to me to fix it or spend money on more data for stuff that should be an email.

People who right the $ after the number. Yes, that does fit more how you say it out loud, but it's wrong and looks wrong. It's such a dumb mistake that would be easy to correct too. It's pretty much a sure sign that the person writing is either a lazy ESL or another failure of American education system.

Even worse, people who misuse homophones.

It looked write for the too seconds my I's where on it. Give me a brake, two error is only human.

This has also always annoyed me.

Something similar to this that's always driven me nuts is when people will talk about a score in sports, and say or write the losing score first.

An example of what I mean is something like if the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Dallas Cowboys 30-10 (or if you were saying this out loud, "Thirty to ten,") but someone says "the Eagles beat Dallas 10-30."

Why on earth would you ever write it, let alone say it this way? It makes it sound like the Eagles only scored 10 points and that somehow football (or soccer, baseball, hockey, basketball, etc.) scores are like golf where the lower the number is, the better it is. What if the game had been a shutout? Why would you ever say or write "We won zero to thirty"?

 

[internet friend]

Its not often, but people who come and start the conversion with "I don't like this". OK? What exactly do they expect me to do with this information? You don't like the band on my tshirt? Fine, why are you telling me this? You don't like that car over there? Well I guess I'm glad you don't have to drive it. What on earth are they possibly expecting as a response?

When I've handled sportsball score reporting and the data format requires a particular team to be reported first, (example: Team A at Team B), Team As score will come first even if they lost: Team A 10 at Team B 30. However, saying, "Team B defeated Team A, 10-30," makes no sense and I wouldn't do that.

If someone said this to me, I'd assume it was done as a prelude to shit on whatever it is they don't like and expect me to accept their comments without any sort of criticism or disagreement.

As for my tax: retail workers. I feel like a curmudgeon complaining, but I was having problems with my car. I'm not a car guy. I went to the auto parts store (maybe someone might know) - not only did the guy at the register not know, but he couldn't even give me a recommendation on any auto repair shops. I did research (luckily it was a quick fix), but this is the 2nd time I've had this experience.

We should do the horizontal shuffle because I also seethed like an old man when this first happened to me. My entire life the guy behind the auto desk was always some kind of enthusiast, with a million parts on the shelves - in stock - to match with the shit in my hand. Someone who knows more about things with wheels than I ever will, even if he's still in high school, because he loves wrenching shit and I don't.

Nowadays you gotta bookmark the places that still employ Whites because the nons know fuck all and will try the search engine. When it happened I said to him: "Buddy, I have Google at home. If I wanted to ask Google a question, I wouldn't have driven all the way to this store just for you to ask it instead. I'm asking: what do you think that sound from my tranny is?" He kind of just hung his head in shame and motioned that the old White guy next to him would be with me in a moment saar.

With Indians in general probably the most daily insult I suffer is their near universal lack of common courtesy, which for legal reasons I am not allowed to beat into them. I can pull the same shit on them: not holding doors/getting out of the way/moving objects into their path etc. but it doesn't register in their brains at all.

I don’t like this.

Thread tax: The ubiquity of 4-packs and 6-packs of beer in the US. I’m on vacation for a fortnight and I want to try half a dozen new beers, but nowhere sells singles and I don’t want to weigh down my checked bag with 20 cans.

Big wine stores like total wine or specs should have a section of misc single beers

 

[Cat tit bingo]

People who care about voice actors races. It's just another thing for retards to play offense at to feel like a good guy, but I've recently been seeing a sentiment that is driving me fucking crazy.
Recently the anime panty and stocking with garterbelt has gotten a reboot so people have been discussing the original's well loved dub. The thing is many people are calling it problematic because the black character garterbelt is played by Chris sabet a white guy. Whatever retards being retarded, except for the fact this is an anime dub WHICH IS ENTIRELY ASIANS BEING PLAYED BY AMERICANS! You could go on and on about the pointlessness, double standards and clear damage of this stupid idea that we need to race match voice actors but to get upset over fucking dub actors being the wrong race is just so incredibly retarded that I genuinely couldn't believe what I was seeing. Of course like all pc bullshit it only applys to various browns and no one cares about the Asians since their oppression wasn't drilled into our heads since childhood.

What grinds my gears is cowards/sloths like you going "Oh no, an imminent problem that severely threatens my whole lifestyle arises! I wish somebody would do something about it... What? ME?!" instead of, y'know, AT LEAST gathering every neighbour that lives closer or just as close to them for a meeting and then pondering on what legal measures you can take to, if not make their life here as insufferable as possible to drive them away completely, then at least to prevent any further baboon activities in their crib.
Genuine life advice, especially for the dark times of White replacement to come: UNITE. No matter how bad it is in your country/city/town, it CAN and WILL get worse unless YOU do something about. Get to know your neighbours, your work colleagues, etc - basically most people in your immediate social circle. Exchange numbers, create neighbourhood group chats - in other words, ACT.
I'm not saying you must pick up an AR, some Molotov cocktails and go full Tarrant on the nogs - you don't need to and absolutely shouldn't do anything illegal. Nobody can prohibit you from being a social activist though - there are always plenty of legal methods to deal with any given problem. I can't advise you what you can do exactly because I'm not a burger, but like I said - for starters, you should at least gather your neighbours and talk about the problem. Remember: the government doesn't have to deal with weak, atomized niggercattle because it only recognises power and force. Niggers are good at uniting into gangs/tribes, so, for the better or worse, the local law enforcement and government have to deal with them. A few lonely yt peepo are not a force to be reckoned with, but an entire neighbourhood of angry and morally courageous folk? That's an another whole pair of shoes entirely - they will have to listen to your grievances and demands.
If you don't want to be forced to sell your property and flee from your (yet) relatively peaceful suburb, then you are gonna have to act before it's too late. Best of luck and peace out.

After a decade of dunking on feminism, interventionism, and AIPAC, I’m now seeing the same people hijab-posting and whispering “one day Iran will be free” like it’s a wish they’re blowing into a dandelion. I think a lot of us (Anglos) are just Grateful Dead conservatives.

Guess the most problematic part is, where the domestic slaves despise and look down on the field slaves and on those who were bought by a ''worse'' family than their own masters'. Also that some of them stay with Scarlet instead of burning her at stake or something.

The movie is actually more 'woke' than the book. They cut out some material (the Klan doesn’t make their Avengers-style appearance) and the Lost Cause syrup is kind of restrained.

It's still full of stereotypes, but no more than anything else Hollywood was putting out in the 30s.
