Odd things that you make you feel irrationally angry?

Post Reply New Topic

People making tiny grammatical mistakes.

I tend to get pissed off whenever I use the vacuum cleaner.
It sucks, haha.

People leaving the dishcloth in the sink instead of taking it out to let it dry.

People talking on speaker phones.
People putting air fresheners in closed rooms that I have to be in.
People changing plans at the last minute.

When I get this weird feeling inside my head, which I can’t do anything about except wait a few minutes for it to pass.

People asking if I am ok.

Being ‘caught’ listening to music.

People wishing me a happy birthday.

State sanctioned murder of people with Autism, dunno why but it just makes me so irrationally angry.

When someone has the nerve to comment on my intelligence, appearance, morality, or character

Good or bad

Just. Do. Not. Do. It

Is that so difficult

Homophobia

My mother.
She's an odd thing alright.

Some silly ones -
- I like watching art journal flipthroughs on YouTube, but start getting really annoyed when everyone, every page, draws or paints human faces. That was always one big difference with me and art / photography. I never draw, paint, or photograph people, especially their faces. It's always objects, places, animals, plants, abstracts. But it seems everyone else automatically depicts human faces ALL the time.
- The fact that I already can't read the "philosophy" forum here, because it's all always about american politics, and now am getting irrationally angry and not wanting to read the random discussion forum, because every topic in there now is this endless "what is the first thing that comes to mind when" topics. I'm not jumping on anyone's proverbial case - I clearly noted it's a silly irrational irritation - but it's just overkill to me now.

Someone else's "holier than thou" condescending attitude

High pressure salesmen

- Apple. I don't get why people think their crappy designs are so good.
- When I see a widescreen TV playing a DVD but the DVD player is set to 4:3 output.
- People who smoke around me. They can inhale that filth if they want but why make me do it?
- People who achieve things at a young age. They remind me that I'm a late bloomer.
- Advertising. Their tricks are so dumb I'm insulted that they thought I'd fall for them.

"Early bloomers" frequently fizzle out at a young age.

Not my uncles. Even my great uncle has more energy than me.

I once knew a 13-year-old girl who was so "sophisticated" that she lived with a 30-year-old man. She was an "early bloomer" in more ways than one. By the time she was in her late 30's, she was dead.

When people say things like "it doesn't feel like winter" or similar comments.

Use of the words "nobody" and "everybody" in a non-literal way.

Implications that younger people don't know about older technology.

When a group is judged as a whole instead of as individuals. For example, when a speaker calls for audience participation and then insults the whole group for not responding well enough, even though it was everyone's individual choice not to respond or not.

People who judge others on their spelling/grammar or whether they know things.

When people say that there are too many labels or judge others for using certain labels.

People who lack empathy for those who are upset or call others "too sensitive".

Snobbery over tastes in music, TV, books, etc.

People in books/TV/etc. who lose their appetites over every bad thing, no matter how slight.

People or book characters who think that others must reveal every detail about themselves and that keeping secrets is a bad thing.

Use of words like "disaster" in books to describe a minor bad thing.

When it's 15 Celsius outside, it doesn't "feel like winter" LOL. I can't help that. It really doesn't!

I hate it when people are judged as a "collective," too. It's a ridiculous way of thinking.

I don't mind it if people say I'm not knowledgeable about "older technology." I don't know anything about how to shoe a horse. I can't help that; I grew up in the age of automobiles. Just like somebody born in 2000 probably would have difficulty, at first, dialing a rotary phone or typing on a manual typewriter.

I agree with everybody else you wrote.
