    Not to get too too political here, but.....

    Poor, working class and middle class people more worried about "welfare queens" stealing 800 bucks a month and seemingly unconcerned about billionaires/millionaire bankers who just got bailed out for a cool trillion trying to repeal the scant and insufficient regulations that they still have to steal trillions more inevitably.

    It's pretty hilarious actually.

    Ugh, yes. So hypocritical and completely nonsensical. I have had so many talks about this with my in-laws and they refuse to listen to any sort of reason so I gave up.

    This is not in the least irrational to rage about. Everyone SHOULD rage about it. People that do this are the worst.

    Wow, what a bunch of babies! Get a thicker skin why don't you? Life is messy, smelly, gross and sometimes, if you're really, really lucky, you get to experience happiness. People are weird, and there's so many of us, so you better get used to it.

    My peeve, of course, is irrationality, but isn't that what it means to be human?

    People who complain about people being people over people being people is my pet peeve for the day!

    a lot of things irritate me and I don't find any of them irrational.

    stupid people. fake people. people who drive like morons. people who go to restaurants as a couple and then sit there staring at their phones the whole time. anyone who utters the acronyms OMG, WTF, YOLO or 'hashtag (insert something stupid here)' in a conversation...#hashtagprovesyou'reamoron. the bacon craze. vanity license plates - because everyone really needs to know you're 2HOT2HNDL or just essentially narcissistic, self-absorbed and oh so clever. close talkers. quiet talkers. loud, obnoxious people... especially women who've had too much to drink. rap music. the fact that 98% of recent hip-hop songs have some guys rhythmically yelling 'hey.. hey' over and over in the background. the fact that Disney stopped being original 15 years ago and that Frozen is one of the worst movies they've ever made and people eat it for breakfast... 'let it go' people, you're being led by the media. the word selfie. having to break apart my ice cubes to get them into my water bottle. phone trees. the IRS. people who stare. people who think you want their unsolicited advice at the gym. people who use the circuit training room to sit on the machines and text. people who tell me, you have such a pretty face... if you'd just lose that weight. stick figure families on the back of cars. religious bumper stickers. religious people who tell me I'm a blasphemer and need to find god (yes, this has actually happened). people who mistreat animals. sometimes people in general. useless meetings. women who bash all men because they had one bad experience. commercials that make men look stupid (which is the bulk of them...especially on women's channels). Broncos fans. bad graphic design work. black friday. media-driven holidays. people who never take initiative. complainers. drama queens. bullying. and pretty much anyone who can't mind their own business. :)

    Thank you saved me typing it. Apart from Broncos I don't know any so I can't comment.
  • This seems to be more of a male thing, than a female thing; it's disgusting. Being a human lawn sprinkler system & spitting lugees everywhere. If no one wants to see you put snot, into your mouth; after picking your nose/you really believe that we want to see snot; coming out of your mouth? I do understand having to spit stuff out, although I don't decorate my sink's mirror, wall and/or counter; when I spit out my mouthwash either. At least be discrete about it & have some couth about yourself!

    I tried to come up with something good for this, and I realized that most everything that kicks my trigger is rather rational... for me.

    But lately, mine has been shopping. I'm about sick of the catering to homogeneity. No, I don't have an Apple or an Android phone, and so the fact that ya'll refuse to support Microsoft means that I can't patronize your app, which you insist on being used than actually doing your job in the store. I ran into this at 3 stores in 2 weeks! Oh, well, you can use our app - no, I can't. And everything in your store is Samsung or Apple. So don't try to sell me an alternative.

    *rawr* I know I'm in the minority but that doesn't mean I don't exist. Kinda like my non-use of Facebook... I don't hear from friends for months, if ever, because I'm not on there. And when I do, all I hear about is FB drama. *ack*

    The school systems. I could go on with a tyranny of problems they have and my two kids have endured through. The one that bothers me the most is my daughter, who switches between my home and her mom's home three times a week. So, the school will only notify her mom. But wonder why she didn't do something when she was at my house.

    I had FB once... all the people i lost touch with posted cute little quotes and funny videos and wanted help with their silly little games. There were no posts about what was happening in their life or birthday wishes or any of that. So, I removed myself from it.

    And along those lines I really hate it when sites/apps want you to 'sign in' using your FB account. ggrr... I don't have one. I don't want one. Get over it.

    Go Fund Me. I see people setting up Go Fund Me pages for everything. It's not the world's problem to take care of every inconvenience that life throws your way.

    Right!! I had a (ex-)friend whose 19 yr old son died in a car accident. She then put on Facebook how her uncle, who owns a funeral home, donated the entire funeral. Then she set up a Go Fund Me account, benifiting herself, to pay for ????? WTF? You to make money on his death?
