ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

when i try to sit, dance, or sing with a villager, they stop what they're doing and smile at me. its so aggravating!

Same, Julian was singing k.k ska and when I played the bamboo flute, he stopped, and said hi to Judy then had a conversation with her, then didn't sing agian until I came into a building
 
Here’s something super petty! It bothers me ever so slightly that so many people call the landscaping and waterscaping features “terraforming”.
For one, terraforming by definition is the engineering of a celestial body to be more habitable, like Earth. Hence the name terra meaning Earth and forming meaning, well, forming. We are not manipulating the land masses or atmospheres on planets in ACNH.
Secondly, the game never once calls it terraforming. They call it landscaping and waterscaping, which to be fair, the former isn’t a super accurate word for it, but it’s much closer than terraforming.

Ok this was longer than I expected and maybe belongs in the rant thread, but I mean, it IS pretty petty.
 
The sound that balloon presents make when they are floating in the sky gives me extreme anxiety for no other reason than they usually are a distraction for me from whatever I'm focused on, ESPECIALLY if I'm doing a big island design/landscaping project.
That 'windy" sound from the balloons is basically an act of war now on my island xD
ALSO, whenever there's a villager who I want to give a gift to and they won't leave the KK Slider concert for NOTHING! I just want to give you some cute glasses, Julia, it's not that big!

True and speaking of balloons, Is it just me or do the shadows of balloons look kinda... off? 🤔
 
My petty complaint: I’ve used over 100 NMT searching for ANY of these four villagers and STILL haven’t come across them! (Wolfgang, Judy, Sherb, Cyd). =(

RNG is a heck of a thing - I came across Judy THREE times in one villager hunt the other day, all within about fifty tickets! I was starting to think my console was haunted :LOL:

I swear they know what villager you want, and make it so difficult for you to get them. I'll get them easily, but when I want them. Nope, waste 500nmt for you
 
I'm so glad we have a petty complaint thread bc this is such a tiny thing but... Why do none of the new wedding items have the same colour variations as the old ones 🙈 they don't match and it's driving me mad lol

Really??? Thats annoying indeed lol
 
Why do we have to take wedding photos again this year when we literally took them last year? Wasn't Reese and Cyrus supposed to be married last year? I don't understand why they could not be married already. You know what will be cool? Having other NPCs who are getting married to take their photos for their wedding, but I guess Reese and Cyrus love their wedding so much that they want us to take photos of them again. I mean this is just an example of how this game doesn't evolve.
 
I don't like how the leaf and petal piles and some of the autumn weeds look so "square". I feel like it's easy enough to design a natural looking shape within the tile (especially with the leaves and petals) so the fact they look like they have 4 edges just drives me batty!
 
I'm not sure if this counts as petty, but I really wish villagers would ask to move out in a certain order...

Sterling has asked to leave 3 times now, whilst Claudia and Eugene, who both moved in much earlier, have never asked. Dobie won't leave either. Just all my permas constantly rotating their leave requests :(

It’s their anniversary, they do this every year (apparently)
