Things That Annoy Me, But Shouldn't

There was an old-school (early 90s) Nintendo aerial combat game called Stealth. My buddy had a big-screen (for the time) projection TV, and we discovered that if you put your plane in a perpetual loop and held down the fire button, eventually everything in the sky would fly into the path of your machine guns. The game could be conquered with two fingers.

However, the infinite looping method went poorly with the root-beer schnapps we were drinking and hilarity of the technicolor yawn variety soon ensued.

 

Web pages that jump around causing you to click on the wrong link.

 

Glasses with stems (arms) made for a child.

 

If you need three wheels on your 'motorcycle', maybe you should just drive a damned car.

 

Might have complained about if before but... people commenting on Instagram just to advertise their own shit.

"Great job! Now would you mine looking at my art?" No. Nope. I probably would've if you hadn't added the last sentence. Now I'm just going to delete the comment and feel shit about my art.

I guess that is how the platform works and I might've had more followers if I did the same... I just think it feels shitty and any compliment you give that ends with begging for attention can't be sincere so it means nothing to the person receiving it.

Or I'm just being bitter. Can't really tell.

 

I visited toilet 7 hours ago and there was this fabulous floater....

 

I agree.

Spoiler: I disagree

 

Oddly, when you put it that way, I agree...

Well played @Lemie, well played.

Not to say I didn't already agree, but that is very well put hahahaha.

 

And now you have to load Spider solitaire and chess from Windows 8

 

Microserft

Go linux, baby!

 

Iced coffee, but especially those dolts you see at the convenience store who put ice in their hot coffee to cool it down. Coffee needs to be drunk hot.

 

Gather round children as I tell you a story of my childhood...

Years ago, when I was young, we had one personal computer in our family home. Yes, one!
It had dial up internet, which meant you couldn't use the phone at the same time as being online, as it needed the phone line to connect.

Which phone?
The landline home phone.

Mobiles?
We had one, which belonged to my dad. Children didn't have such items, as there was no need for them. Who does a child need to ring, anyway?

Our PC had a fun little product on it called Paint. It had just one paintbrush, and you could choose it's thickness.
Yes, really...

We eventually had a fax machine, which had a phone attached to it. You could scan and print items of paper with it.
No, not in 3D.

This is an actual recollection of my childhood and technology.

 

As much as I'd like to watch Master Chef, four long commercial breaks in the first half-hour? I'm out.

 

The only reason I'm not refering to my co-worker as "the idiot" at work is because HR would have issues with it and I need to job until the end of August...

...but I have three more weeks with this moron who think he's the best even if he usually fucks things up...

I guess what annoys me are people with too high self esteem who are cocky and self sure. You're an idiot and everyone is sick of your bullshit!

 

Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith in particular, but modern, tuneless chav music in general.

How does anyone find this stuff pleasurable? Their pained, whining squeals makes me want to vomit violently over whatever devise it is they’re emanating from.

 

Burned coffee in cafeteria. I really don't like the taste of it.

 

But burned coffee anywhere else is totally fine, right?

 

Healthy eating.

I get it in principal, but unless your daily diet consists of only lettuce and water, it seems we're putting ourselves at risk.

In fact I call a conspiracy. I don't really know how that particular theory would go, but they're up to summat.

 

The ending of an old Western I watched yesterday. I know they were done in the '40s and '50s, and their time period was in the ye olde days of the 1800s but... LAW! DO Y'ALL NOT SPEAK IT, PARTNERS!?
