Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 430

That sounds like more than a tiny thing tbh

 

Can you link me to the big things that annoy you thread? LOL

It's annoying that MacBooks are charged with USB-C but the magic keyboard is charged with an iPhone cable. Why!?

My mouse, earbuds, over-ear headphones, MacBook, emulation console, Switch, tablet, phone, etc. are all charged with USB-C. Just got this new keyboard and I'm so frustrated haha

 

There’s a guy I work with who has one volume with his voice - “loud as shit”.

A few months after I started at that job I asked some people if he was hard of hearing or something because even if you asked him to be quiet because someone nearby was on the phone or whatever he would say ok and then continue to talk as loud as he always does.

Pre-covid, he sat in a section of the office where 10-15 other people sat and idk how tolerated him day after day. You could hear him in the front lobby 50-60 feet away from his desk. Couldn’t imagine sitting next to him or anywhere close to him.

 

When I get acne near the tip of my nose and feel like Rudolph. And even if I wear concealer to cover it, that's like the oiliest spot of my face so it inevitably always comes off

 

I got a baggy-fit pair of Dickies shorts off Poshmark for cheap. I was stoked because they were cheap and they’re very in-style rn in my neck of the woods so I’ve been wanting a pair for a while. I try them on and…

…they fit.

But I look like a fuckin’ dork

 

When it comes to dating, people are really ever “good on paper”. No one is perfect, but some people make themselves out to be a different person than what they bring to the table

 

My phone doesn’t charge unless it’s very carefully laid down a certain way once the charging cable is connected. Annoying because there’s no rhyme or reason to it, sometimes I plug it in and nothing but repeating that 5-6 times finally gets it to start charging. I suppose that’s just how it goes when you have a phone that is 6 years old lol

 

Have you narrowed it down to the phone, or is it possible it's just the cable? Obviously the latter would be much better heh

 

that happened to me and the port you put the cable into got bent and it cost like $100 to fix, technology is fun

 

My previous phone did that and I had to buy a wireless charger. My phone cable for my car does that. It’s annoying bc when I need the gps I can’t touch my phone

 

Edit: I got them on stub hub.

 

this happened to me and it was just because there was lint in the charging port.

 

When I want to make a left-hand turn on a busy street and I have an opening but then another car materializes out of thin air from some random side street or something and kills my opening

 

I got an ad on Instagram recently for these very cool Ray-Ban sunglasses. Definitely something I’d like to own and wear. When I clicked the link, it just took me to a blank page. So I did a Google search for those specific sunglasses and it turns out, they were part of a limited run. Only 500 pairs were made and they’ve been sold out for over a year.

Now I keep getting ads for that specific pair and I’m irked because I’m basically getting an ad for something I’ll never be able to own lol

 

The grocery store near me turned all the self checkout lanes into 10 items or less and has someone standing there who will literally count your items to make sure you’re not over 10. Today they had 2 registers open and I had maybe 20 items. All self checkouts were available but they wouldn’t let me use them so I had to stand in line for 30 mins just to check out and the entire time I was there not a single person went through self checkout. What is the point???? I could have saved so much time just using self checkout!!

 

Flights being delayed by 4+ hours right after you get through security… followed by a cancellation once you order food at an airport restaurant.

 

That I grow really long hairs on my earlobes, and that I have to shave my ears every few weeks.

 

The sun visor in my car cannot extend. So 90% of the time I use it, the sun is still blasting in my eye

 

The amount of spiders by the entryway of my house/in the garage

 

My back has been in so much pain for the past two or three days that I have to move like I’m 200 years old. Big annoying, not tiny annoying, but I needed to vent somewhere.

 

My cat dug her nail into like the very top corner/crease of my dominant thumb deep and it fucking hurts so I put some neosporin and a bandaid on it which is wildly inconvenient, I know I use my thumb for a lot of things but you don't really think about it until it's slightly incapacitated.

 

Also I splurged on a Lego set I've always wanted that was on sale after a particularly bad mental health day this weekend but knowing we have a new income and are restructuring our budget, I haven't open the box because I keep wondering if I should return it. Every time I look at it, I just feel guilty.
