What irks you?

[Lethalia]

On a very small level. Nothing that drives you crazy or infuriates you, nothing you really hate, just a mild annoyance that doesn't affect your life much.

For me it's when people say "could care less" instead of "couldn't care less."

And tweens that think they're cool and mature for trashing their own generation of music for no reason.
"ALL modern music is trash, we need to go back to the 80s when music was REAL!1!!1!" Like kid, you weren't even alive in the 80s, who cares? It's just goofy to me. All eras had both good & bad music. Good & bad is subjective anyway, so it's not impressing anyone.

Groups of people who take up the entire sidewalk, yet move at seemingly the slowest pace possible.

Small repetitive noises. I can’t stand them

Walking around in my bare feet in the house, and feeling dirt all over the floor. Especially right after I sweep and it's like the broom didn't even get it all rip

Imo some modern music is okay, but I think the music from the 50s-80s is much better. I spent much of my middle school years listening to modern pop/rock and after a while I just got so tired of it, because most of it to me is trash. I'm not trying to impress anyone by saying modern music is bad, I really do believe that

People intentionally misinterpreting your questions or comments... Like if you remark something and they purposely misinterpret it for some dang reason. stop it.

Yh same. Even if they don't intend to

 

[Midoriya]

People who don?t know what they?re talking about annoy me.

People who post or say out loud subjective opinions about me behind my back or tell a story untruthfully with me in it.

People who don?t know what I?m interested in or what my ?likes? are.

People who talk publicly about how great their relationship with their partner is. Like, who cares?



I?ve had a lot of people betray me and backstab me on certain Discord servers for MMORPGs in the past year. Even though I?m past that, I prefer everyone to speak to me in an objective format, unless they are trying to be funny. I don?t need your opinion and I didn?t ask for it.

Yes it's like.. you don't have to do that i can tell if you do sigh.

Also people ignore what you say/write in a conversation, especially on serious purpose and go like "yes, yes" and then walks away like wtf don't talk to me then lol.

I get what you're saying, but it sort of annoys me when people treat their uninformed opinion as an objective fact. Maybe it will turn out to be correct, but it could also turn out to be incredibly wrong, and you need to be able to recognize when it is.

I am guilty...

I hate when people have a problem with me but they cannot say anything. Seriously, my back is not a voicemail. Say it to my face. If you think I?m annoying, tell me. If you think I?m clingy, tell me. If you do not want to be my friend, tell me. It?s not that difficult.

I also hate when people are nice to someone out of pity. That only ends up hurting the person more. Don?t become my friend because you feel bad for me. Being friends with me shouldn?t feel like a chore to you.

Yeah, that’s the other end of it and I understand that, but a lot of the time people are very subjective towards me and it just makes me not want to talk to them. At all.

Then there’s other people who do have informed and researched opinions, and use them against me in an argument, but they are really just acting like a smart aleck. There’s a saying that goes with that that I’m sure some people know. If someone is going to do that to me though they better actually be smart, otherwise I’ll retaliate.

I agree strongly with the thing about people who say stuff like "I wish I was born in a different generation, the music was so much better back then!". Because honestly, even if you truly feel that way, you can still listen to old music now, a lot of old music has been archived to be way more accessible than it would have been back then. A lot of music from previous generations is available for streaming, but if you were actually alive back then, then you would have, at best, been rich enough to be able to buy records/CDs/etc all the time, or at worst, had to actually sit around by the radio all day and hope by chance to hear your favourite songs or to call a request in manually. Being an appreciator of old music is so much easier in modern times. The other thing is that this sort of "I wish I was born in a different generation" idea ignores all the terrible stuff that would happen, like it would un-do a lot of progress we've made to end bigotry, or progress we've made with science and technology, for example.

 

[Loriii]

I value time so much so it irks me when people make me wait unless there is a valid reason and they aren't doing it habitually.

 

[thatonemayor]

?I?ll take these ones.?

It sounds so bad as a phrase.

 

[Alienfish]

“I’ll take these ones.”

...I assume you never worked re-tail?

Also re everyone being annoyed about those "born in the wrong generation"... well I guess you think you have it good with all the comfy tech and think everyone and everything is good? No, dude. Just.. no. Do you really want a hi-tech world with no actual cash and everyone being robots not fighting for democracy and rights?

Yes I'm proud to be saying I was born like 45-50 years too late and I'm not ashamed.

Totally agree, I wish I could've been born in the 70s like my parents were so I could grow up in the 80s-90s, that woulda been awesome
I personally don't think I could ever accept all the ways of society today...

 

[Croconaw]

What about the people that were born in ‘99, calling themselves 90’s kids? I’m not trying to start a war here, but that really irks me. I have never once called myself a 90’s kid or 90’s babies, so I’m not being hypocritical. I was born in ‘98. I don’t like the thought of having to label yourself. Being a 90’s kid doesn’t make you better than anyone else. I’m perfectly okay with the time frame I was born.

Yeah, I wish I was born in the late '40s/early 50s so I could be a hippie like back in the days

Same, dude.

Lmao cringe. A time where racism and sexism was accepted even more than it was today. And no one actually thinks everything these days is perfect. And we're not going to live in a futuristic robot world anytime soon.

Like I can understand having a fascination with those times and appreciating it but saying "I was in the wrong generation" makes it seem like you're putting yourself above everyone as if you're special.

Can't say it's much better honestly, unless you are by the norm sadly. Also lmao cringe at you, I'm not trying to better. I just dislike today's society, and it wasn't meant to taken all literally. And no I don't wanna be "special snowflake", I'm not a freak tumblr kid sorry.

Also what more irks me. Yeah, when people treat you like a bad/lesser human being just because you're not knowing of everything eg. LGBTQ+ terminology, culture, etc. Yeah sorry I'm not a queer agender demisexual british muslim that sits and read about it all day, you can just explain in a nice way and stop assuming everyone knows everything jfc.
