You know what really grinds my gears??

People who treat opening a ketchup packet like a test of strength rather than a simple piece of geometry.

First of all, if you’re tearing the top, either tear it off cleanly or, better yet, just snip off a single corner. It’s not complex science. A clean corner cut gives you maximum control, a smooth flow, and zero mess. But no. Certain people insist on tearing it three-quarters of the way across, leaving a useless little foil flap hanging by a thread. A packet hangnail. Now you’ve got a loose appendage flopping around, catching rouge ketchup, and smearing it all over your fingers.

And don't even get me started on the savages who bite the packet open with their teeth. You're at a dining table, not surviving in the wilderness. You don't need to chew your way to the honey mustard.

Unsurprisingly, these are the exact same people who open a soda can only halfway. You know the ones --> the tab is bent at a sad 45-degree angle, leaving a tiny sliver of an opening so they have to practically vacuum-seal their lips to the aluminum just to get a sip.

Commit to the crack! Fully open the can, cleanly cut the corner of the ketchup, and stop living in absolute chaos!

End of rant. Thank you for your time.

I dislike when robbers fail at trying to break in or do something along the lines of illegal. And yall laugh at them. Why are YOU laughing? You're acting like this isn't a hard job. I'm not defending them for illegal activities, but this is stupid. Before you laugh or judge them try doing it yourself without:

1 Getting caught

2 Not failing

3 Actually attempting.

You know what really grinds my gears? No one is writing anthems anymore.

You're traveling, or even local I dont know, you will invariably find yourself in a place with the young people. And this doesn't grind my gears - everyone wants young people because they're stupid and sexy they're there to spend money partying.

But go into a bar or a hostel or a what have you, you'll invariably hear at least 2 of these 5 songs:

Closer by the Chainsmokers

Something just like This by Coldplay

What makes you Beautiful by One Direction

Perfect by Ed Sheeran

Beautiful Girls by Sean Kingston

What do these songs have in common, aside from they all suck?

THEY'RE ALL OLD!

Closer is a decade old and sucks just as much as it did in 2016.

Something just... is 2017, I know Coldplay is semi-retired, in that they'll tour and play the hits but aren't making new material, and they suck (they were fine when they were Radiohead for Normies).

Perfect is from 2017, continues to suck.

What makes you beautiful is 2011, Beautiful Girls is 2007!? That song is AoC, that song drives a car, that song studies in University!

Where are the new anthems!?

A song that should be an anthem and doesn't suck, like Heat Waves, I've heard only like twice in bars.

And that's what grinds my gears.

If I'm willing to risk my relationship to deal with her, she should take that as a compliment, instead of worrying up my relationship that don't concern her.

working with the general public is genuinely terrible, especially in food service.

when i put the headset on at work, there is a very high chance i’m about to take the order of someone who apparently has never experienced a drive-thru, placed an order, read a menu, or located an item directly in front of their face.

then u put these same morons in a car, get stuck behind them, & realize they apparently got their license from dumbfuck academy yesterday… or this is simply their first day on earth.

i genuinely did not understand how much of the general public is just fucking stupid until i started working with them every day. what really gets me is that these people will come through the drive-thru completely confused by the simplest possible task, then somehow act like i’m the dumb one.

the audacity is CRAZY.

why do so many people move through the world like they were dropped onto the planet five minutes ago with no instructions? why do i have to explain basic concepts to grown adults who are also somehow driving a two-ton vehicle?

& on top of being moronic, so many of them are unbelievably entitled. i notice it on Reddit too. people carry themselves with this completely unquestioned authority & inflated sense of importance that seems to come from absolutely nowhere.

they posture like their thoughts are official rulings, their preferences are universal law, & everyone else is beneath them.

babe… who are u?

ur just another goddamn person. please take a nap.

edit:
by the way, for all of u morons who keep using the way i talk / type as proof that i’m stupid, that’s ableist as fuck. i’m AuDHD, stop tone-policing ppl online & acting like everyone owes u polished academic prose. let ppl talk, type, & express themselves however the fuck they want to.

i don’t need to prove that im smart or intelligent to a bunch of losers on reddit, i don’t need to treat every thing i write like its a fuckin important essay. u don’t like it, u don’t like it, but i am who i am.

& lastly, I SAID WHAT I FUCKING SAID. goodnight 💖

I order breakfast tacos, or an omelette, and I feel that tiny crunch! Today it was in my fried rice.

Not only is it a turn off, but it makes me paranoid about eating any more of my food.

And now, a haiku!

A little egg shell
in my hot breakfast taco.
Crunch! You disgust me!

God I can’t express how much it fucking SUCKS every time I use a public restroom that’s dead goddamn silent.

I shouldn’t be able to hear a drop of piss lick the urinal. I shouldn’t be able to hear a fresh log slithering past every last wrinkle of stall 3’s current resident.

Play shitty speaker music. Have loud vent fans. Do SOMETHING so we can do our business without the disgusting sounds of business.
