2.) Bicyclists in general. Especially those cutting traffic in the most dangerous of ways and those who drive break-neck-speed down the sidewalk and almost knock every pedestrian over no matter the age and get pissy if you force them to slow down. It almost feels like once a decent human climbs on a bike they lose all of their brain and common sense.

Bicyclists piss me off, too. Instead of finding a park or something, they always choose the busiest of roads to go -5 MPH on. Why the hell should traffic come to a crawl just because one faggot wanted to ride his bike in a place he really shouldn't?

Also, when I was in college, you couldn't walk to any of your classes without some fruit nearly running you over without even an apology. The campus wasn't even that big, so it's not like there was any reason to ride a bike.

I actually almost hit one of those morons. I was on a crossroad turned roundabout on the separate right turn lane and was about to turn when the idiot, after passing the other cars behind me, passed me on the right side and gave me almost a heart attack. The guy was armored in the protection gear, which actually makes people willing to take more risks.
What pisses me even more off is the fact the government actually wants to give bicyclists even more rights but instead of just building more separated paths for them (which would be safer for everyone involved), they also want to put extra lanes for them on the streets like an additional sidewalks. As if the roads aren't narrow enough already.

Dude everyone hates these assholes. They ride on the sidewalks and scare pedestrians shitless, they ride in the streets and scare drivers shitless. City ordinance saying you have to walk your bike on the sidewalk in this area? Fuck that, they're gonna ride around on the sidewalk doing ~15mph, coming dangerously close to clipping some pedestrian who couldn't see them coming from behind.

Know what's worse than the bicyclists, though? The kids on those little electric rent-a-scooters. Scooter has a sticker on it saying 18+? Nope, Timmy the teenager's gonna take it for a joyride because apparently the app used to rent the things can't or won't check age. And he's gonna joyride it like a bat out of hell down the sidewalk weaving past pedestrians.

I actually live in a region where those scooters aren't around. I think there's only one major city somewhat close that has those, but thankfully I don't have to go there.

Even more ridiculous are those e-bike people. I once read a news article about an idiot who froze to death because the battery of his e-bike died and he was too stupid and/or drunk to use the pedals or just walk to the next town.

I honestly don't like weed. I tell people this and they all think I'm fucking crazy or woosh at it. Had a stoner roommate and all he did was smoke weed, nigga didn't work or anything; He would sit there, invest and sell on Cyrpto, which was fine, but he clearly didn't know what the fuck he was doing if he wasn't paying rent. Kept calling my landlord to kick his bum ass out but the dumb Rooskie bitch didn't do anything. Don't ever do business with Slavs.

Another thing I hated was watching my home city get ass blasted by Millennials and SJWs when they legalized weed. Californians and people from the Pacific North West started coming here in droves; bringing their gay ideology, politics, pollution, and homeless population. The housing market was already unstable but now its is so close to popping any day now.

I feel sympathy for homeless people who got dealt a bad hand in life, I was homeless myself, but their are some who are downright assholes. They do drugs in public, shit on sidewalks, leave used needles around, prop their tents in school zones, and commit crime while hurting local businesses. One time, some methed up nigger engineer, excuse me, tried to steal my shit in public and I was bout to tan his hide 6 shades lighter until some people broke us up.

<- dramatization photo of assailant,


Our politicians are weak, passing laws that enable their shit tier behavior. Then when they actually do something, they face backlash by troons and virtue signaling morons.

I've never been political, never cared for it, didn't even know the difference between Democrat's or Republicans for a long time; but I have a huge fucking disdain for the far left. All they do is bleed and consoom everything and then leave scraps for Junkies. Now my hometown is a gentrified husk, overrun by criminals in all sectors. Glad I left.

Sorry for sperging.

Those auto phone bot calls.

Something really needs to be done about them. Like @Meat Target, @Kiwi Lime Pie, and I said, they're ruining legit calls.

I miss the pre-9/11 days where the most annoying call was the occasional telemarketing call (in the '90s). Before then, pretty much the only calls were legit ones. In the '00s, telemarketing got really bad - just like advertising on the internet - but the Do Not Call list worked.

But now it's the endless cyberpunk dystopia that is Current Year Clown World, so pretty much every call is a robot making a scam call.

The best part is, that robo-spamcall shit is actually illegal but good luck enforcing that law lmao, they have spoofers and I've yet to hear about any phone scammers getting rogered by Uncle Sam for their trouble

Feels. Recently found out a manager at work tried to call me last week for somebullshit.gif but I didn't pick up. Like nigga, I get a dozen robocalls from some Chinese telemarketing service every week. How about calling me from one of the eight work numbers I already have saved? Faggot.
 
Insecure people who project their weird shit onto me and/or my relationship.

"But don't you think that other people..."
"Doesn't your partner care that you..."
"My partner would (never allow me to)..."

Yeah, cool, sorry that you and your partner are jealous/insecure fucks without a backbone. Not my problem.

I'm come to find this kind of funny by now.

"But don't you think that other people..." No, and I don't fucking care. I'm not interested in anyone else's thoughts on things that happen in my relationship.
"Doesn't your partner care that you..." If they have a problem they can talk to me about it, I'm not a mindreader and they know that.
"My partner would (never allow me to)..." Sounds like a you problem tbh fam you should address that on your own time

I get the occasional live yet clueless telemarketer calling my long-time job. Earlier this year, I had someone call two months after I originally told him we don't have any sort of copier machines that need servicing or supplies.

The live cold calls I despise most come from a landscape company that calls every 18-24 months wanting to cut the office property's grass even though there is none. I've gone from politely telling them, "We don't have grass/need your services, please stop calling here," to a terse "Do you guys not listen to what I've been telling you each time you call?"

At present, the biggest offender is some credit card interest robocall spoofing 555 numbers. For those not in the US, this exchange is generally reserved for information/directory assistance (555-1212) with 555-01xx reserved for fictitious numbers even though the rest of the block is often used for that purpose.

Spoofed numbers is a huge problem - especially "neighbor spoofing." If your number is 555-0101, you might get robocalls from 555-0150, 555-0175, etc. with the idea that people will be more likely to answer a call if they think it's someone local to them calling.

Efforts to stop spoofing have been unsuccessful. In one instance, a domestic abuse shelter objected to proposed legislation outlawing spoofing and admitted it used spoofing to conceal its identity and protect the victims housed within.

The other big thing is many of the worst offenders operate outside the US which makes it all but impossible to enforce US laws outlawing robocalls.

A couple of years back, someone tried to call me about making some extra money with my paying hobby. The number appearing on caller ID was clearly messed up, so I let the call go to voice mail. When I got and played the message, I quickly returned the call and explained that I didn't pick up because the caller ID was broken and made the call look more suspicious than legitimate. The other person explained that something happened with their phone system after their then-recent office relocation and they weren't sure when/how it would be fixed.

Most normies realize that what people in a relationship do with each other is nobody's business but their own unless someone is being negatively impacted.

To add something new, it pisses me off when people want or expect you to disclose personal TMI/PL details about yourself when you barely know them but refuse to do the same when asked similar questions in return.
