Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 92

When people leave a space between the last word in a sentence and the punctuation. How did this become a thing? Do you just not see it? Are you trying to be quirky ?

Also in the realm of punctuation annoyances, the boomer ellipses

 

yeah , that's annoying .

 

I hope whatever band that eventually names themselves Boomer Ellipses is cool

 

when people talk a lot without really saying anything

 

My mom does this thing when she texts me where it adds 2 periods at the end, so like 2/3 of an ellipsis and it's weird and annoying..

 

that's mom texting alright

 

My mother inadvertently hyperlinks every sentence by not spacing the period from the first letter of next sentence and has foreverrrr lol


"Hi.Good morning.Hope you're well.Miss you guys.See you soon.Bye"


So much highlighted blue text!

 

I have one coworker who always puts three periods at the end of the last sentence of his emails and I never know how to read it because it always reads weird to me as if he thinks we’re all dumbasses lol

“Happy Birthday Tina...”

“Yes, the inventory will arrive next week...”

“Thanks...”

 

just jammed the FUCK out of my middle finger wiping my car windows and now it gets that needle tingly pain in the tip when i touch something w it. luckily i can still extend it all the way so i can still drive tho haha

 

You should probably lock down that URL and buy it while you still can!

 

It links directly to my xanga where I've recorded all my lifetime mistakes and poor decisions

 

Guys who call themselves “very blunt” on dating apps. So... you’re medium key telling ladies you’re a jerk?

 

paperwork

 

I hate trainings that encourage participation and people to share. Either not enough people participate which results in an awkward silence or some people over share and just ramble on forever.

 

First day of semester in pretty much every class at the community college I attended

"Welcome, we're going to go 'round the room introduce yourself - name, where you're from, career aspirations, 3 hobbies, and an animal that best describes you"

Practically begged for extreme over-sharing, especially the 3 hr classes

 

I remember being a dick during two truths and a lie and being like "My name is Thomas | I am inside right now | This is an effective use of our time"

 

When somebody says “you can’t make this shit up” about something that could very easily be made up

 

A thread classic:

My spring allergies are murdering me daily

 

Enlarged taste buds

 

the worst

 

That's sensual

 

When there are several registers open that look about equally busy and I predict which I think will be the fastest and take a chance and end up picking the slower one

 

100%

 

Man, that makes me think of so many similar ones.

* when the person in front of you has a full cart, sees you have a basket or only a few things, and doesn’t let you go ahead of them

* using a self checkout and something goes wrong or doesn’t scan requiring you to wait for assistance

* doesn’t happen much anymore, but self checkouts that freak out when you out stuff in the bag and screams at you to remove the item or doesn’t register the item and doesn’t let you move on

* when a barcode on something doesn’t work

* “10 for 10” deals where it would ring up as $1 if you just bought one anyway and didn’t need to buy the 9 extra ones

 

THIS. DRIVES. ME. NUTS.

1) I specifically came to self checkout to not interact.

2) As a full functional person who has done this a thousand times, I do not need assistance now or ever. If I pressed the wrong button, I can correct my own mistake.

3) If I have to wait for an assistant for more than one minute it's clear that the assistant needs more assistance than I do.
