Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 468

My wife and I went to a local shop a few weeks ago and two drinks with a pastry came out to like $20. I’m still in shock about it…

At this point, at most coffee places near me, the cheapest option for the smallest drink is like $5. I remember when $5 would get you a 24 oz. cold brew…

 

That said, that isn’t stopping me from going back lmao

 

The latest is a tiny hatchback Mitsubishi Mirage which is fun to drive and I like small cars but feels like the floor is gonna tear off once I reach 60-70 mph lol.

Before that was a giant ass Buick. Maybe the Enclave? Or maybe something discontinued as it’s a giant SUV but none of the vehicles on their website look big enough. Super bright 30” (exaggeration) screen that I could not figure out how to dim. Had to put a jacket over it to drive at night lol. Felt like steering a boat through mud, not that I have experienced that lol

And then I drove a Nissan Kicks for a day or so. I’ve never even heard of this vehicle before. wtf kind of name is that. Drove fine but the layout of the interior felt off to me for some reason. Buttons on weird places.

 

oh man those Mirages are like, literally the cheapest new car you can buy right now. insane lol

haven't ever driven a Buick, drove a Nissan Murano a month or so ago and it was a higher end version of it, so pretty nice

 

My first car was my grandmas Grand Marquis. Not a Buick but just as much of a tank.

 

I have a cordless vacuum (side note - highly recommend. Idk why but not having to deal with a cord just makes vacuuming so much easier and faster to quickly vacuum an area without the hassle of a cord, even on smaller sets without the giant turtle shell) that has a “power suction” feature but it literally kills the battery in less than a minute. I don’t really ever believe any of the added “features” on vacuums and such so I don’t use it often and it just sounds louder than the normal setting but the few times I have used it it’s amazing how quickly it drains the battery.

 

I saw a video floating around on TikTok of a cop singing Senses Fail at an emo night. The amount of people bootlicking really annoyed me. Is this a safe space to say that ACAB still applies to former scene kids?

 

Yes and it absolutely does

 

Thank you. And thank you Lisa Simpson for indoctrinating me in my youth.

 

when you are about to step into a crosswalk and someone pulls out right in front of you, looks at you, and continues to go on with their driving

 

Okay but then you lose out on a sick insurance payout

 

i was just trying to get my daily mental health walk in!!!

 

When I check Google Maps to see how traffic is before I drive home and it says “traffic is heavier than usual.”

Uh, no it isn’t. You say that every time I check before I head home from work. Traffic always sucks! You can’t fool me!

 

To me there’s nothing worse than when you hit traffic when you’re on a late night drive and assume there will be no traffic. And then BOOM hour in gridlock because of road construction.

 

traffic is one of the worst things of all time.

 

Traffic when you’ve been drinking lots of coffee is even worse than that

 

I’ve been there way too many times

 

I accidentally added too much water to my batch of quinoa and it basically came out like porridge :(

 

Goldilocks has entered the chat

 

That audiobooks are perfect to fall asleep to but then you lose your place and have to start over.

 

That is when you strain it, and then let it simmer in the pot for awhile for the remaining water to evaporate.

 

Same with podcasts. Sometimes I’ll play an old podcast I’ve already heard and fall asleep to that

 

This is the way

 

When people pronounce ‘sherbet’ as ‘sherbert’. Also ‘espresso’ as ‘expresso’, but thankfully Sabrina is helping to combat that

 

I’ve been guilty of the first but I’ve since changed my ways
