Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 376

Stayed in an air bnb that was like that with 3 other friends and only I was allowed to have the app to unlock the door because I booked it. It sucked.

 

So if u lose your phone or it breaks you're just screwed?

 

Shark Tank would've shot that shit down in an instant. Barbara would never

 

The skin on my arms hurt and idk why. It feels like it got rubbed raw or sunburned except it looks completely normal and I didn't do anything to them. No redness or irritation. Except now as I'm typing I wonder if it was friction from dumb forearm planks. Which seems ridiculous but all I can think of.

 

Been getting a lot of very weirdly detailed spam emails and texts.

On one hand it makes it easy to decipher that it’s spam just from the subject line / first line of the email I see without clicking on it vs a vague spam email that makes me worry about something and wonder if it’s true but still annoying and dislike how many I’ve gotten the last week or so after barely getting any for awhile. Makes me wonder what company sold my shit or got hacked.

 

I'm so glad my phone auto archives spam texts, it's insane how many political ones I get

 

Last year my doctor told me I was pretty healthy, but my cholesterol levels were a little on the high side. So in the last year I’ve been eating just a little healthier and biking more instead of driving to try and get those levels down. Fast forward a year later and the doctor told me my cholesterol levels are exactly the same. All that for nothing.

 

Genetics are a bitch. Ask my kidney stones

 

Things being made smaller that are already small enough.

Saw a candy display for mini Skittles.

No one has ever looked at Skittles and thought, “boy these are enjoyable but I wish they were smaller. These are too filling/hard to eat at this size”.

But then again I feel the same way about M&M’s and mini M&M’s have existed for decades so what do I know.

 

Plus, mini M&Ms are fantastic

 

Give me a giant m&m the size of a soft ball

 

My wife's cousin and her husband are doing an affiliate digital marketing thing, the text is copy/pasted with emojis so I know it's some kind of MLM and it's literally all they post about

 

Got a "raise" but since I'm paid on production I'm not actually making any more money bc this new position means I basically get all the hardest jobs. They failed to mention that part to me when I accepted of course!! They said I would just be working on all accounts which I had been doing but ever since accepting the position, I have almost exclusively been getting work from our most difficult account. But they of course have excuses as to why that is happening. I'm gonna be poor forever.

 

Some ppl are being so loud it sounds like elephants running upstairs. I live on the top floor. Are they on the roof?? What is life?

 

Getting bird shit on my car right after getting a car wash

 

or when they shit on my windshield but just out of reach from my wiper blades

 

My coworker who has been hacking up a lung without a mask

 

I wish you the best. Happened to me a month ago and got COVID like 3-5 days later.

 

Hope you’re feeling better! I just got over a head cold too, fingers crossed they don’t have covid.

 

Thanks! Doing much better; I did get really sick but thankfully the worst of it only lasted like three days

 

When people Slack you asking you to read the email they just sent you. Oh, you want me to read your email Joe? I never would've thought of that!

 

or when people I never talk to just say "hey" on teams, I don't respond ever to that

 

or when people start a DM and then go MIA when I reply immediately to their initial message. if you want it to be asynchronous, then send me an email.

 

When you’re looking at shit online that is available in a physical store but then realize the site isn’t showing you inventory from the store in your city and once that is selected that item isn’t available at the store.

A lot of sites do this and while I guess I would rather have it this way vs knowing exactly where I am, for whatever reason Target’s website seems to be the worst/most annoying for me as the site never remembers my zip code and always defaults to like somewhere in western Canada even though I’ve changed it hundreds of times

 

There is an idiot coworker of mine who sends me 2-3 Teams chats a week every week for at least two years. I have never once even clicked on the message/chat so it’s just a wall of questions from him with no response / not even the icon showing I read the message.

finally about two weeks ago he emails me saying, “please see my question in Teams chat and let me know”.

JUST PUT THE QUESTION IN THE EMAIL.

Was going to just ignore the email entirely but decided to respond and told him to send the question via email and that I don’t use chat (a lie of course lol). And he did. And he still continues to send messages in Teams. His brain is simply incapable of putting two and two together.
