People showing up in your office 3 minutes after sending you an email with questions and they walk in with "I just sent you an email....."

In my advancing age, I have decided that my immediate response is "I saw it but I haven't even read it yet."

If they persist, I maintain my stance. I do not know what the answers are yet.

They have tiktoks on dad behaviors that goes into these things specifically. Most are spot on.

My parents think every waiter/waitress is there to converse with them. My mom asks them all about their personal lives and then my dad tells childhood stories. If I try to tell them the wait staff just wants to serve us, get paid and GTFO, they get upset.




This or any situation when someone acts in a manner in which they act like they are the only person in the world that matters.

This new (to me at least) phenomenon of people stopping several car lengths behind the car in front of them at stop lights. This is especially infuriating in turn lanes when lights are short and lines are long.

Listening to a 3 minute long explanation about something someone did/said/etc but having to wait until the end to be told who the story was about.

(not that it matters as the give-a-frick meter never even twitched).

They do that to ensure they don’t rear end the car in front of them while they’re on their phone and not paying attention to the traffic or traffic light.

Golf carts, golf carts…golf carts. My inner Falling Down wants to come out every time I see these lazy motherfrickers jamming up roads.

I am guilty of this too but I get angry when I am at a red light turning right onto a hwy and a car ahead of me in my lane is going straight.

Being in a meeting and being asked to introduce myself and state my pronouns. I have started using we, our, and ours just to demonstrate the absurdity.


I would just state my name and that’s it.

Exactly. Prefer to have no pronouns, refer to me by my full name at all times. The gendered pronouns of our lexicon are relics of an epoch of patriarchy's laziness, they are abbreviations designed to segregate individuals from the spriritus mundi that will eventually bring us all together.

Truck towing a trailer (typically with lawn equipment) is gonna go 5-10 mph below the speed limit no matter if the limit is 70 or 45.
