pet peeves / lil stuff you cant stand

It bothers me how so many places (particularly restaurants/cafes) have removed any semblance of comfort in favor of just getting people in and out as quickly as possible. I noticed it last week when I went in somewhere to sit with my sister while she ate and the seats were rock hard and curved in a way to make them intentionally uncomfortable, and then I realized that's kinda the norm now. Not only is it really inaccessible but I feel like it adds to the loss of third places and it bums me out.

Bring back coziness!!

Continuing with the restaurant theme I do not want to scan a QR code to see your menu, give me a damn piece of paper I can hold or I'm gonna just leave.

Idk why this has become so common, and idk how people haven't realized it's exclusive in so many ways. like yeah let's alienate people who can't afford a smartphone and the majority of seniors from eating at our restaurant, great job guys good idea.

Not to mention, people who don't have a lot of data. I only have 5gb worth and I sure as hell am not using some of it to load the website the QR code leads to. If the company is too cheap to print menus, I can only imagine where else they cheap out on.

I feel bad when I make a post and suddenly a moderator comes in and issues a warning about the topic derailing.

Even if it's not directly towards me, I'm the last one who posted and it does feel like I'm being scorned.

I just deleted a post over this (not on this forum though).

The dunking booth on this season of Drag Race is getting old. I wish it had been a one-time thing, as the novelty has faded. Also, a lot of former contestants say it’s freezing on set, so imagine how cold Michelle is there!

"I think (insert show) is overrated. I didn't watch past the 3rd episode".

I'm not interested in hearing any further opinion if you only watched the first few episodes.

Most first episodes, let alone seasons, are used as character setup.

"I wasn't feeling the show and stopped". That's fine. Calling something overrated is used for too often in these instances.
