Stupid People. Not people who are naive, they can be educated. But actual stupid people. They will kill us all.

That we as a society just accepted that cigarette butts aren't garbage. It's something smokers are allowed to toss everywhere because they can't be bothered.
Whatever MS office turned into and that I still have to work with it.
And how governments of "first world" countries so openly shit all over the citizens they should take care of. It's not new but I feel like we're reaching a new low every day and no matter where you look at, it's the same just in different extremes.
Americans putting their thanksgiving in November.
WTF is wrong with you guys. It's 4 weeks to Christmas, you need to spread your food based holidays out better.
Easter, Independence Day, then fucking nothing until bam, Thanksgiving and Christmas back to back.
I don't want to hear about Labour day being a feast, it's a day off work to celebrate working. Stupid fucking holiday.
The general state of the world / our collective inability to learn from history.
Thanksgiving, cool idea but could we not celebrate genocide by murdering some birds whil living on stolen land, thanks π
I hate when people don't know how to act in a restaurant. I can tolerate it in tourists from abroad, that's excusable ignorance. But by the stars, some people never left the five hundred mile radius of where they were born and still never learned basic things like "don't treat service staff like trained animals" or "don't say you're ready to order until you know what you want" or "wait for a host or other staff to seat you instead of sitting down at the only dirty table and then complaining that you don't have a menu and your table is dirty" or "the number of people in your party includes all people, not just adults" or "you can't just order things from random people walking by".
Ugh.
I hate when you go to tie something down in a truck and the tie downs you have suck so they aren't the right length and you have to awkwardly tie them to the hitch and then you do a terrible job anyway
People that donβt use their turn signals.
Bots
Billionaires
Billionaire-bootlickers
Excessively talkative people who tell you everything about their life - but take zero interest in yours.
Companies that make you jump through hoops when you call them and force you listen to recorded messages about how you can get what you need on-line, before they finally put you through to a call-centre in India.
My lack of discipline when it comes to drinking and eating
The fact that my body has taken to waking me up at 4am
That new wicked movie. Itβs so bad.
That I can't find a job in America.
The fact that if you die tomorrow it will actually impact very few people and you aren't doing shit to change that
Human suffering.
I fucking hate SQL. Itβs βstandardizedβ, but not in a way that makes anything about it interoperable between vendors. Itβs insecure as fuck, unless youβre extremely careful. Every single SQL server has its own way of doing things, and you have to know it intimately to be able to use it effectively.
That being said, SQL is pretty cool. It kills aliens and doesnβt afraid of anything.
How shit a lot of modern tech is.
Gossipy people.

Recently and a slightly hot take: reckless drivers/cyclists. My take is that urban planning should be pedestrian-centric so... And yes, I did specifically include cyclists too: I would prefer to be hit by a bike rather than an automobile, but I'd much rather prefer to not be hit by either
The "Coaches" in Gran Turismo 7 on the licence tests.
Yes I'm having some trouble you smug fuckstain, I'm trying to gold every licence test. ITS HARD. I dont need to be constantly reminded.
Everything, in general.
If I could give the cosmos a good wallop I would, horribly monstrous thing that it is.
Fucking wifi. In fucking everything. Fuck wifi and fuck you.
