Wait, is this that one AI British voice? If so, I can hear it in my head…!

No, it’s This thing.

Some subreddits have some really weird and stupid rules users gotta follow.

For example, r/Presidents has a rule where you're not allowed to mention Trump or Biden because r/Presidents rule 3 says so. Apparently, this rule was set in place because r/Presidents is a historic subreddit and any recent or future politics aren't allowed to be discussed.

I feel kinda bad for the users there because they have to censor people such as Trump and Biden as "rule 3s" because they're "too recent."

When someone makes up a statement and phrases it falsely as 'SkyKnight said ______"!

Then I have to be like 'No, I never actually said that'.

It's usually intended as a joke, but the person hearing it doesn't know that. Then I'm the one who has to speak up and correct it.

Oh it drives me crazy. When someone makes a habit of that it's one of few things that can actually get me annoyed.

Assuming everybody my age is into Harry Potter, Like no Sarah. I have only read the first book and could not get into the series. So I could care less.

My mom however absolutely adores the franchise. She will binge watch the movies on TV if there was a marathon.

People who expect every single piece of media to cater towards them. When it comes to media, there's plenty of fish in the sea. Some things I like might not be your cup of tea and vice versa. It's not a bad thing, it's just preferences. Everybody has them.

Parents acting like there's something wrong/you're weird just because you have different food preferences than them. I don't appreciate being treated this way and I have heard some people had it even worse where they were forced to eat things that made them sick. This isn't how you get kids to eat healthier. You need to find an alternative that is something they actually like.

Thank you for this I've been thinking this for so damn long omg. Yes, kids need to eat healthy, but forcing them to eat food that makes then sick or throw up is really not how you do it.

I like a lot of dark humor and edgy jokes (as long as it's not straight up being a bigot and covering it up by saying it's "dark humor") but it annoys me so much when other people get called "too sensitive" when they don't find a dark joke funny. No, YOU are the sensitive one for getting mad at someone when they didn't find your ****ty joke funny, YOU are the one who needs to move on, and YOU are the one who needs to grow some thicker skin.

Reading the room and thinking before you speak is VERY IMPORTANT for dark humor and if you fail to do that and just word vomit distasteful "dark jokes" that come to your mind then don't be surprised when nobody wants to be friends with you.

“Transvestigating” is just straight-up bullying and I wish people called it that. There’s nothing wrong with being trans, but calling cis women trans as an insult feels like immature high-school crap.

Heavy breathing and loud chewing. They make me nauseous.

Also people who lie when it's so obviously false. Like if you're gonna tell a lie at least make it make sense.

I keep getting YouTube ads for WWE toys. Like of little boys playing with them. OK so I AM watching more of that stuff, but it’s the older stuff. And hon…I’m a young woman; I think a lot of these beefy, shirtless men are hot. I’m gonna watch the sport for sport’s sake but also the men. I don’t want a toy, just the video, please!

 

[Chronos314_XD]

Why the hell doesn't YouTube let me use the miniplayer for music. Why does it just immediately close when I try to look at something else on my phone.

 

[SkyKnight03]

I'm fine if someone I speak with online doesn't talk to me for a while. I normally just carry on with my own life.

I don't think it's something that needs to be explained to me. I have a friend through social media who tends to vanish for weeks or months at a time. I don't really bother asking her for a reason and honestly the sincerity makes things way less awkward.

The only drawback is that I usually won't send anything else during the 'off period'. That can be a friendship killer on both ends.

I hate how the word "poseur" is used when it comes to music (though I imagine it's similar with other forms of media). I've gotten called one a few times for stating I like popular bands such as Metallica. And??? Who cares how underground/mainstream your favorite artist is. You can still like them regardless of popularity, so using those descriptors to determine if someone's music tastes are "good" or "bad" is pretty stupid and ignorant.

As someone who listens to songs from random unknown musicians I think those people are so god damn annoying. Like bro if somethings popular it's popular for a reason cause its usually GOOD lol.

The first version of “Freek-a-Leek” I found on YouTube cut out like half the lyrics and it ruined the flow of the song lol.

In-flight wifi. I miss the magazines. And for me it’s a nice break from the internet and the phone. It forced me to do other stuff. I still only want to use my phone on a flight to take pictures out the window.

Don’t quote this please.
