I hate the posts, memes, videos, of someone talking about something bad happening to their ex, but how they're happy about it because said ex cheated on them with their best friend.
It'll be something like a picture of their dog smiling with a treat and they'll caption it "rewarding fido with a treat for biting my ex who cheated on me with my best friend"

People seem to love them or think it's funny. In my head though I'm just thinking, "why the fuck are these the people you surround yourself with? Am I just supposed to assume you are not also a piece of shit?"

Idk how real the posts are, but I do know that I've known women who've been in similar situations, and they were just as shitty as the people who fucked them over.

I remember my wife had a hoe friend a while back who was dating a dude at the time. Dude was a piece of shit, and they had an on again off again relationship. I guess one day though he cheated on her or he had done something else fucked up where they broke up, literal next day dudes TWIN brother asks her to hang out, she accepts, and obviously they fuck. Her and original dude get back together, and somehow it comes up that this happened, and I guess all hell breaks loose.

Not totally sure what the end result of it was, but she was exactly the type of girl who would post this stupid shit, and also the reason I know this kinda delusional shit happens.
Any variation of:

Real tough men are chill and kind
Stand up to bullies and they'll back down
Bullies are insecure

Some bullies can be stood up to but the fact is many bullies are hard as nails and many hard men are brutal bullies. Stand up to them and you'll get your face broken.

Scott Steiner used to pin people down and stick pencils up their ass.
Both Sean Strickland and Nate Diaz are well known for being willing to fight literally anybody, at any time, for almost no reason at all lmfao.
I've seen the clips, neither of them give af whether you're 6'5 or 5'6, they will treat whoever it is the same, talk shit, bully, threaten, and fight if insulted or challenged.

At this point I hate Wojaks. When I see them I always associate them with manosphere incel doomers.
Some of them still feel relevant, but most of the generic ones are really only ever used for incel/doomer style memes. On the bright side they are starting to feel similarly outdated as the original troll face style memes
 
I hate like people who, like, talk like this like, because their brain like cannot like form a coherent sentence like, so they use like as a filler for like everything. Like seriously, makes my blood boil. Like.

Well yeah, that's why you shouldn't stand up to bullies. You should cheap shot them when they're not paying attention. Do you see police going honorable duel mano a mano against criminals? No, they gang up on them 10-to-1 if they can, cause why would you ever risk giving some violent degenerate a fighting chance?

Is there a single live-action show right now that isn’t just some half-remembered IP from 30 years ago duct-taped to beige network oatmeal?
 
Tourists. Dear god. I hate them so much.
I don't even live in a town with any reason for them to come here but the city people consider parking an RV the size of my goddamn house in a water and power supplied "park" behind a gas station camping.
Just the other day, i had to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting a passel of seniors on electric bikes, riding across downtown (no where near a crosswalk mind you) to go to the "bakery" (who just reheats frozen premade shit) at like, 9am. They literally went to the bike shop (which I also hate, i miss the old one run by the crazy doomsdayer), bought $5k bikes, just to go like 100ft over to get a snack. My god.
They have no respect for people who live and work where they glamp.
 
Poly and Open relationships - combined.

That's a combination that screams a whirlwind of instability and risk. Just be fucking single and flinging at that point, so that way nobody's feelings are getting hurt or mislead. That's just way too much liability to happen. I've not yet seen or heard of a single successful or long-running poly/open relationship ever. They always crash and burn because someone somewhere wanted more than they can handle or nobody covers everybody involved or miscommunication or this and that. There's just too much shit that could happen, that could wreck these relationships.

They're always made up by people who simply don't want to be alone and from just shitty parts of themselves that are as put together as glue sticks. They'll maybe make it a couple days at most, but a few months at best before inevitably crashing. I always hear "eh, we're making it work somehow" from someone I know who's in one right now and I'm just thinking to myself "for now".
 
Teenage zoomers that think the whole world revolves around them and their anxiety, mainly because they are raised that way. My friend has a 17 year old son who has taken a habit of running away for a week on occasion and always gives the explanation of ”I just had to have some time to think”. Like son, what the fuck do you have to worry about yet? He is just making his life harder for himself every time he does this and my friend is like ”oh he must have ADHD or BD”. Look, your son is being a little shit because you allow him to be one and the diagnosis for that is UMF (Ungrateful Motherfucker). He recently sold his expensive sneakers (that my friend bought him) so he could finance his drinking and god knows what else.

I know teenagers do stupid shit, it happens. But if you keep doing the same thing as in not disciplining him in any way when he tells you ”I am not coming home/facility for a few more days” aka setting the rules for himself, do not expect him to learn or change. Get mad, set boundaries. If a 17 year old skips town for a week when school starts, that is not anxiety; that is just avoiding responsibility and being a fucking retard. I wish I could say these things to my friend but you know how parents are about their kids, you can’t tell them what’s what.

have you ever been to jasper and/or banff? holy shit what a fucking gong show in the summer.

busloads of chinese people going in and out and crowding the fuck out of everything, then we get the dipshits who park their cars and create gigantic traffic jams on the roads going in and out of those areas to take pictures or some odd dipshit to try to feed them. I was there a few times, and the one year i went to jasper(i believe it was 2009), i watched some idiot get out of his car and get within 20 feet of a black bear to take a picture. i mean i saw inconsiderate dipshits literally park half-way in the highway lane with their shitty parking job so people had to awkwardly try to go around these assholes so they don't get smucked head on by traffic, all because they wanted a pic of an animal or be a retard and try to approach them like its some fucking petting zoo. so no. if anybody wants to argue Canadians are smarter and the problems that yelowstone and U.S national parks have, go spend a week in japer and banff and come back to tell me otherwise. tourists are fucking idiots.

the last time i was out that way was september 2023 to banff. day-tripped it from Calgary (only an hour's drive). it was busy in september, but not crazy busy, as in you can navigate around banff just fine and get in and out of the shops comfortably without having to get through literal crowds of people crammed into tight spaces, but still a lot of people and tourists around. i decided to take the gondola up the mountain. how it works is that you buy a ticket for a certain time to go up, and when the time is approaching, you que up and go around your designated time. well, a group of tourists literally formed a big group right at the enterences just chatting away . i asked one of them nicely twice to let me through, which got blatantly ignored, and it wasn't until the third time i got pissed did a couple of them got kinda scared and moved out of the way for me, but they stayed in front of the entrance and still chatted. security finally had to step in and tell them to move the hell out of the way because they were blocking the enterance.

I just have to take a deep breath and try to appreciate the money they drop. What really pisses me off is my location is not a camping one but they sure fucking try. Had a major campground get completely destroyed and it hasn't been redone in a decade because nobody can seem to pull off the engineering feats they were able to do in the 40s-60s, plus they're probably trying to find a way to turn this beautiful area into tiny homes and a needle exchange.
In the mean time fuckers park their RVs and Striker vans behind our house and we have to chase them off. Some of the vanlife types seem genuinely surprised we don't find them adorable as they film themselves making pancakes in my fucking backyard.
These types really crush my cogs because they clearly ARE NOT dropping money into our community so they can fuck right off.
 
When someone says they're just going to start pirating something because it's become too difficult to obtain legally, and some jackoff is like "Just get a VPN and then you can get it on Netflix"

Like that's still too much hassle goober
 
I hate people who try too hard to seem sophisticated. Some of my coworkers are like that. On one hand, they insist they don't care what anyone thinks of them. On the other hand, they also make sure people see how high and mighty they are. I get sick of their pretentious bullshit.
 
Installing old software on Windows of any fucking variation makes me want to switch to Linux more than any attempt at convincing anyone can try.
If I want to uninstall something with invalid certs it wont let me run the executable. UAC is already disabled and it still interacts with me. Great, thanks. You're protecting me from something already on my computer.
I'm glad I know how to use the fucking registry.

Fuck you Microsoft you fucking hacks take off my straitjacket I want tO USE MY MACHINE.
