Things That Annoy Me, But Shouldn't

You probably couldn't shorten, except maybe something like 'aych' but that's ambiguous. Unless they just declared the phonetic spelling 'H' but that's only acceptable for vowels.

 

Zed's dead baby. Zed's dead.

 

And really that's just an exhale, like 'huhhh'.

 

Wait, I know what it is!! When my mom would sneeze, she'd over-pronounce it (she used to over-pronounce a lot of things) and it literally sounded like she was shouting 'Hate-Choo!' all of a sudden and shockingly loudly. I think it scarred me.

What part?? I’ve only ever heard it pronounced ‘Aitch’. The only people that sound the ‘Huh’ do so because they don’t know any better.

 

I must admit that for the first 30 years of my life I pronounced the 'Huh'. I was brought up with it (Preston, UK) It was only when I was doing the alphabet with my kids that my wife held an intervention.

 

Avocado.

Why the heck does every sandwich place insist on putting avocado in everything?

I DO NOT LIKE AVOCADO. I like bacon. Coupling it with avocado does not make it better.

And what the hell is "smashed avocado"? I mean, do you eat "smashed potato"? If you're going to call it smashed, then I demand to see some proper smashing, with sledgehammers.

 

You mean it's not just called guacamole? Or people eat mashed avocado differently than guacamole? Just pure avocado smashed?

 

Nope, it's not eaten as a dip, unlike guacamole. It's used as a sandwich filler. E.g.:

I made the mistake of going to the Avocado Mexican Restaurant in Kyoto. I expected avocado. Avocado can be okay when used correctly.

Every. Single. Dish. was made with avocado.

All of them.

Down to the avocado ice cream for dessert.

There can be too much of a mediocre thing.

 

Somebody needs to tell Rob Ager that, because he's English and that's how he pronounces it. I don't remember where he's from, but he says he gets called a 'scouser' (sp?)

 

That means he's from Liverpool.

 

The fact that we’re asked to give an opinion on something on Reddit, but then if that option gets too many down votes it gets hidden.

I won't read anything where anything other than an attack on a computer network or an incompetent writer is described as a 'hack'.

 

One life hack I would like to share with you is... Now Earp is no longer reading I want everyone to know that I agree with him 100%.

 

People who say something, "Takes itself too seriously," when speaking of some work or endeavour.

What? What does that even mean? I should hope the thing, whatever it is, takes itself seriously. I'll never understand people like this. So, Schindler's List is a bad film? Dostoevsky is bad? Schubert is terrible? It's impossible to count all the deep and serious works of film, music and literature out there. Apparently it's no good thing to be serious.

I'll admit this was a "critique" I received. God, it pisses me off.

 

Don't take the comment too seriously. Some folks are more interested in making a clever statement than in offering any useful feedback. One might think they take themselves too seriously as critics.

 

It annoys me when a business i need to contact for work ONLY has a facebook and want you to contact them via facebook.

I hate using my personal FB for work...i want a separation of the two. Its bad enough my coworkers and people from organizations ive collaborated with in the past are friend requesting me (i feel obligated to accept their friend requests because i dont want them to think im snubbing them).
-sighs-
I feel like i cant be "me" anymore. No weird/dorky/goofy memes. No more existential/morbid/serious humor.... I have to be "professional"

 

I rather not... I'd rather not have to keep track of another account. I already have like 5 emails i monitor....
