Thing that personally piss you off. - So, yeah as the tittle says, what pisses you off

podcasts have become pozzed

I might have mentioned it elsewhere here, but a now-discontinued podcast I largely enjoyed had an episode where I stopped listening before it was even a quarter of the way through.

The host chose to interview a black person for this particular podcast, which in itself wasn't an issue. However, George Floyd had just died and the ensuing rioting had just started, so the host decided to abandon his usual format and topics and ask the guy for his opinions which quickly turned into a spergout over DWB, BLM, and white privilege. This ended up ironic, if not hypocritical, to a degree when the guest admitted he had been adopted as a kid by a white couple.

It's one thing to ask a guest for their quick thoughts on current events. But to let that become the main topic in a podcast discussing apolitical topics is too much.

I'm not sure what the situation is in the states, but here in Bongistan the amount of scam emails, text messages, phone calls one receives today is nothing short of absurd.

It's pretty bad in the states, too. Ignoring the clueless telemarketers and sales people that just can't or won't take no for an answer, there's robocalls, text messages, and live operators calling from Southeast Asia. These calls either come and go in spurts or a come in a never-ending deluge. What's scary to me is the number of scams intended to commit identity theft, especially against senior citizens in the form of phishing attempts for their private Medicare information. Even though I'm not old enough for Medicare, my former boss was. Ever since I took over the business after her passing, I stil get regular calls from foreigners whose opening line is some variation of, "I see you're on Medicare..." They usually freeze and hang up when I tell them, "Gee, you must have bad information because I don't have that."

What's worse is that the people behind these junk calls tend to spoof/forge different numbers each time which makes it rather difficult to block their calls with the usual blocking techniques. Equally horrifying is the fact that both ignoring the calls or asking live operators to stop calling seem to have little if any impact on reducing the number of nuisance calls.

Honestly horny lonely men should be mercilessly ridiculed, harassed and shamed for watching and especially funding titty asmr/streamers/gamers whatever shit. If not for the sake that you are being taken advantage of so some bitch (and her bf that btw isnt you) can live nicely while youre still molding on momma's basement, I really am tired of finding this shit when looking for some decent content to watch/listen. Like you are pathetic, kill yourself or stop it. Stop enabling this fucking shit content.

This guacamole has the fucking avocado pit in it just to be a dick and purposely waste space.
If anyone has another explanation for this, please enlighten me. This is the first time I’ve heard of this.

The pit reputedly reduces oxidation and prevents the guac from browning.

I'm not sure which is worse; the women who use their sexuality to tease horny/desperate men into bankrolling their NEET lifestyle or the men that shower these e-thots with money and somehow think it buys them the right to do whatever they want with them (protip: it doesn't and @BATHMETHAMPHETAMINE is right that many have a bf/husband and still grift).

It's probably easier and simpler to say they deserve each other and the resulting drama.

My mom loves to turn the TV all the way up to the point where I can feel the bass from outside. What pisses me off about this (aside from letting the whole house know what lifetime movie she's watching at 3 AM) is that she has the audacity to complain about her poor hearing and not being able to understand what people are saying. I tried explaining to her many times in the past that maybe it's because her TV's cranked all the way up to 11 like it's a fucking movie theater, but she just doesn't understand that and just blames it on going to a lot of concerts when she was a teenager, therefore she has to crank it up so loud so that she can hear what B rated actress says to B rated actor at generic dinner scene 12. I keep telling her that her hearing will keep going down when her ear drum is subjected to loud decimals, but she just ignores it.

She's said many times in the past that she's going to get a hearing aid, but never does.

Personally, both. The only thing that makes me smile is that they leech off each other. Actually, I'll give the slight edge to those types of women. You so much as criticize them, they have an army of incels and simps to jump to their defense.

Idk, does rapists broadcast they're rapist?

I found another thing that pisses me off. These people hold these signs with a smug smile on their face like they're DOING something.

I hate that shit too. On the same note, I hate people who think just going to protests or demonstrations is equivalent to them being on the front lines. A former friend of mine thought like this. He unironically saw himself as a "frontline activist" because he marched, picketed, sang at the protest or rallies, donated money to and voted for the Democrats, and faithfully watched CNN. Never mind that he lived a cozy life detached from the causes he rallied behind, he was one of the wholesome good guys because showed up for protests! He also never did anything beyond showing up for protests. Honestly, it makes me both cringe and seethe when I think about what a smug, hypocritical asshole he is.

"This is super serious business, let me smile like I'm holding my fucking birthday cake in my hands." Mate, at least try to hide the fact going to slutwalks gives you the happy feelings.

 

[Coelacanth]

The one phrase every goddamn person on twitter, tumblr and other sites use when making a post/"hot take": Y'all.

The smugness that radiates from this particular phrase almost makes me want to punch my monitor. To them I suppose it makes them look like they're acting sassy and can take hits - but as soon as I see it I know that it's only going to take one naysayer who disagrees with their opinion to send them into a complete meltdown and howl out for the hivemind to make the bad person with their bad opinions go away.

I can't wait for the day "y'all" is replaced by another obnoxious phrase in the social media lexicon. It will not be missed.

Tangential to this, but seeing someone who simps hard for just such a streamer (to the point where they've dropped over $2000 in one month) while at the same time constantly complaining about how they're the only one who takes care of things in their household while also complaining that they're having employment issues at the moment and they really need to cut back on their spending despite making no attempt to do so whatsoever just confounds me. Especially when they make themselves emotionally involved in the streamer's affairs when they definitely have more important things to be worrying about themselves, what with their steadily destabilizing means of income and livelihood.

I suppose it would be better to laugh at their hubris instead, but I can't help but feel irritation and contempt for someone so thoughtlessly and eagerly destroying their own financial security just to prove that they're the biggest simp and curry imagined favor with a streamer.

EDIT so I can tack on one more thing, which is, again, tangentially related to the overall topic of streamers: I've also been developing an increasing disdain for this mentality that a lot of content creators keep fostering on the internet where they discourage any normal, healthy social interaction and instead want to ensure that their following serves as nothing but a hugbox and is completely masturbatory to the creator's own ego. Suddenly, bantering in a community is a touchy issue, and giving feedback is also a total grey area because why the hell would an entertainer ever want to hear your opinion? Either praise them while you watch them or stay silent and keep watching them, you fucking ungrateful plebe.

At least, that's the attitude as it comes across to my interpretation.
