People Explain Which Minor Inconveniences Drive Them Absolutely Insane

Ask me what little thing pisses me off and... I wouldn't know where to begin. What does that say about me? Yikes.

You see, there's no shortage of things out there that annoy the hell out of us. There's a recent viral meme that I love because it proudly declares, "I hate going out in public because the people be there." It speaks to me.

But there's more out there to get on our nerves than just people, as we were reminded once Redditor mysteriouslycryptic asked the online community,

"What minor inconvenience drives you f**king insane?"

"It's a scam..."

"Ads about $350 dollar surveys on Instagram. It's a scam and it's annoying as hell."

DutchDude69

The WORST. And they're everywhere. Probably a major reason why I don't waste my time on Instagram.

"YouTube..."

"YouTube turning your whole recommendation page into a topic you've watched two videos of."

Quantum_Cucumber408

The YouTube algorithm is horrible. There, I said it.

"Buffering."

"Buffering."

"I work so hard and pay so much for good internet. Having 100/100 speeds and being plugged into the router should never have issues."

Allisvoid

Thankfully I have amazing internet... but when this happens, it enrages me. There are so many places in this country that lack it.

"People that stick gum..."

"People that stick gum underneath the underside of tables or litter literally anywhere."

Pineapple_Code

This is so nasty. Why are people like this?!

"A lot of people call you..."

"Not even telemarketers, but the scam callers. A lot of people call you like fake Apple call centers asking you to login because of 'security reasons' or whatever."

Adrenaline_Junkie

I don't even answer my phone. If it's that important, you'll leave a message.

"Thankfully..."

"Scientologists. Especially the ones recruiting where my doctor's office is. It's a couple of blocks from the HQ in LA. Thankfully they wear outfits that make them look like ushers at a movie theater back in the 50s and are easy to spot."

heathersfield

I have dealt with a few and this description is spot on.

"When it takes 15 seconds..."

"When it takes 15 seconds for a company to put a fraudulent or unwanted charge on my account but takes 5-10 business days to get it back."

ficey54943

I felt this in my soul. Why is this so true???

"Can't it just start realizing..."

"The human body's need to save EVERY GODDAMN CALORIE it can get hold of. Can't it just start realizing when enough is enough and pass the rest on?"

Liagala

Ain't that the truth! Curses!

"I was ice fishing..."

"Seeing people leave trash out in nature."

"I was ice fishing this winter and I saw these guys just dump their trash in the hole drilled in the ice. My blood was just boiling at the total disrespect given to nature."

jetodic829

Just don't litter.

Don't do it.

It's the quickest way to teach others that you're an ass.

"We've all been there."

"Poorly synchronized stop lights. We’ve all been there. Stuck at a red light, go a block, hit another red. Go another block, hit another red."

"Seems like with the technology today this should be extremely easy and cheap to fix."

Blastoplast

You would think, and yet I see this all the time! So annoying.

Okay, if reading any of these sent your RAGE-O-METER spiking in advance, sorry, dude. I'm just the messenger.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
