When someone has no idea what to do at a four way stop. Someone gets there first, she gets there second, and I get there third. She's dicking around on her phone, and does the most retarded left turn nearly getting herself and the guy into a wreck instead of allowing him to go first. Of course she gets mad and blows her horn at him.
 
Ya'll see the Cracker Barrel rebrand?
Do "ya'll" remember when the right wing griftosphere lost their shit because Cracker Barrel put plant-based meat on the menu? They didn’t even remove the meat, they just added one sad little veggie patty.

Every day my animosity towards github grows. I cannot even properly describe how much I fucking hate that website, its layout, and its users. FreeTube's been shitting out errors showing every video as "not available" due to API errors. Tens if not hundreds of people reported the same thing, not that you'd know, because some fucking autistic faggot has been locking every thread and hiding every post, sometimes responding with "this has been fixed by XYZ". What is XYZ? Who the fuck knows. There's a link, it has some gay nerd mumbo-jumbo in it, and nothing else. No download link, no "fix it yourself" instructions, just that and "promise a new stable version is coming bro" from a week ago.
 
While it pains me to say this, I have to defend cyclists on this point: the amount of dumbfuck pedestrians who walk or just stand still right in bike only paths. Its not like these things are hard to discern: they're painted entirely green with lane markings, bike symbols all over the place and there are constant signs saying "bikes here, pedestrians there". Its not even that they could be lost or unable to use the footpath because it runs parallel to the bike path only a metre or two away. Yet, every single time you're guaranteed to see at least 2 retards walking smack in the middle of it, ignoring all the bells being rung at them and shooting dirty looks like they're they ones being wronged. For once cyclists are in their own place where they aren't being an obnoxious hazard, so stop forcing then to have to swerve out of the way.
 
The absolute number of dysgenic freaks out there shopping. Why did I go outside today. Everyone is so disgusting looking. The people I work with aren't that good looking, but they're at least normal. Go into the retail shops and everyone looks like an alien shoved into a too-tight or too-loose human suit. And they're buying the ugliest poor quality clothes. I just don't understand what humanity is going for these days.
 
I want to punch the dipshit who keeps leaving shitty sitcoms on in the break room tv. I hate nearly all sitcoms and they never got better. Right now they left the tv on to 2 Broke Girls or whatever it is called. Stupid unfunny shit and has every sitcom stereotype you can imagine.

They play the audience laughing clip every other line to a weak joke. They play audience reaction clips to everything. This appeals to soulless and humorless people and I guess the person who left it on is one too.
I remember a few years ago when I worked a shitty job. Somebody left the break room TV on showing the female Ghostbusters movie. I remember the female Ghostbusters somehow punching ghosts dead, and shooting ghosts in the crotch. It was a pain sitting through break.
 
Ya'll see the Cracker Barrel rebrand?

To those uninitiated, Cracker Barrel is an American restaurant chain from the 70's onward. Known for it's rustic 'old-timey' Americana theme. Also, inside each restaurant is a gift shop carrying rustic 'old-timey' novelties and candies etc. If you're American and have been there, you certainly know the vibe Cracker Barrel goes for. Generally cozy, not too brightly lit, good ol' American comfort foods.

Old v New interior design.

So we can see the pattern here of removing the soul from Cracker Barrel. Probably the only chain food joint in the country that had an ounce of soul left in it still.
Let's investigate:

Leave it to a woman to fix something that ain't broke.

Thread tax: People who cross busy streets recklessly. I saw a couple do that earlier today while traffic was still moving-and they had a small child in tow. Mom and Dad were heavily tattooed, a detail that hardly surprised me.
 
I hate the political shills on Reddit constantly spamming posts everywhere about Gavin Newsom and Zohran Mamdani. I don't live in New York or California. Fuck these tards.

In my feed this morning I see this photo of Lorne Michaels trying to contort his embalmed face into something resembling a smile and it triggered rage in me, just thinking about what this bloated pharaoh did to comedy.
 
Every day my animosity towards github grows
I gave up on GitHub after declining MFA for years, even shirking the aoo they because of it, and finally got booted out of the session I'd been using for years only to be met with MFA login.

No thanks, GitHub. You're not that important to me.

Only problem is all the shitty platforms that are deeply ingrained with GitHub even going so far as to not have users submit issues through that platform instead providing any modicum of customer service.
 
Psychos that don’t peel the shrink wrap off appliances. They leave it on, then mount the thing six feet up so no human hand can ever reach it, "uhhh, it’ll keep it pristine, it’ll help the resale value.” It’s gonna turn piss-yellow, it’s gonna curl like an old toenail, it’s gonna collect dust like a haunted doll.

We had to replace the exit bar on the employee entrance at my job, right? Didn’t peel all the wrap off before bolting it down. Now? There’s this spaghetti wad of plastic poking out the back, fused to the steel door. Who does this? It’s like living in a house where every piece of furniture still has the tags on it.
 
Windows 10 insisting on organizing everything alphabetically by default. If there are just a little too many files in a folder, it organizes them alphabetically, no matter what I've chosen, and then has to take some time to display the files from Newest to Oldest, my preference. Exactly how long this length of time is completely unpredictable, sometimes it does it instantly, other times, it takes minutes.

I don't remember any of the older versions of Windows doing this shit, it drives me absolutely fucking crazy.

File Explorer is such a steaming pile of dogshit that after the 900th time it froze trying to display a folder with like eight JPEGs in it, I caved and downloaded some third-party file manager.
 
When you're loading your groceries on the conveyor belt and some troglodyte comes along and starts loading their stuff onto it well before you're finished. Respect the divider and move your shit, bitch.
 
Reddit’s officially a corpse now that they give people the ability to hide their post history, All those weird foreign bot accounts I have pegged have no history.
There's an upside to this in that power jannies are absolutely furious because they can't stalk someone's profile and ban them for not being PC in other subs.

Check out r/modsupport it's full of fatties seething.
 
When people try to downplay your phobia of something or otherwise treat you like a kid over it. I’m terrified of bees and always get told “Oh they won’t sting unless you bother them/that kind doesn’t sting.”

Motherfucker I know, that doesn’t make me any less afraid of them being near me.
 
The libshit reaction to the trope of the tough criminal who will do anything to get ahead but it's actually because he's poor and has a family. Like 90% of turd worlders would be gone if they realized that fiction isn't reality where villain bad because people mean so if people are nice to him he stops being mean. The only thing it gets you is a plague of ruthless upstarts who pull the ladder out from under your own children (obvious to literally everyone else.)
