Cars with with these new super bright LED lights - they may help you to see better but when you are behind my car I can't see a damn thing!
And the super bright bicycle lights also, m**********r trying to blind me going down the cycle path.
Well aimed factory lights aren't a problem -- LED's have a very sharp cutoff that's supposed to be below the mirrors so they shouldn't be causing any glare. The lights in my car are self-leveling, so even if I have a big load in the back, the LED's still still well aimed. The worst thing are people that buy LED retrofit kits for their standard headlights that are just an LED bulb -- since the LED beam pattern doesn't match the incandescent, they are never well aimed and cause a lot of glare.
People driving close behind you. Absolutely pisses me off.
I'm assuming that they mean it seems okay to the person who is driving too close, not the person being tailgated.
Load More Replies...I always slow down when someone is tailgating -- not to piss the other person off, but because now I have to allow stopping distance for both of us. Even if it's the other cars fault if he rear ends me and he has to pay for it, I don't want the hassle of getting my car repaired.
Tailgaters can be dangerous! They bring out the passive-aggressive in me.
Mentioned in another thread, but oversharing personal stuff on social media, I honestly just don't see a point. I'm ok with occasional pictures but some people (whose job isn't social media) upload several or more times every day.
When people hate on something you like. There are some things that are 'cool' to hate. For example a certain song or a band, a hobby. So if you like that, people just assume it's okay to laugh at it or point out how lame that is. Just wish everyone would appreciate the differences we have.
I was bashed on BP a while back for liking ketchup. Yes, I get that you find it gross. I don‘t force you to eat it, so why not let me have what I like? :(
Yeah exactly. And the other way around, if you hate something everyone likes and people make fun of you for it.
I totally agree, we should all be able to like what we want and not get teased for it.
I always appreciate others' interests. You never know what you may learn!
Lately, using social media to showcase "charity". It's not charity if you have to broadcast it to the world...you're just doing that for the likes. Give because you want to give and because you genuinely wanted to help, as my mother always said, "no one needs to know".
If someone wants to give to a charity and brag about it online, I don't have a problem with this, they are still doing good. Where it's more of a problem is when someone, say, films themselves giving food or clothing to a homeless person, putting that person's reaction online whether they want to or not.
If someone gives to charity, it is always good, no matter their reason.
It may inspire others. If someone gives something to a homeless, 1000 people see it, 500 will hate it, 400 will like it and 100 will do the same. I call it a win.
If others see other people doing good, they are more likely to do good as well. Also spreading awareness is important as well because it shows more people the issue at hand and they will feel more inclined to help.
Refusing to hear both sides of an argument/opinion. It’s great if you have opinions on things, your own beliefs, etc., but absolutely refusing to even listen to the other side or ridiculing someone who has a different opinion just makes you look like an uneducated ass. You don’t have to believe what they do, but you should listen at least.
I'm sorry but I will not listen to someone's "opinion" about how great a man Hitler was...no thanks!
Well that's the extreme side of things. That wasn't what I was going for, but I agree with you there. I'm talking arguments like politics, beliefs, religion, etc. I don't agree with a lot of things, but I will listen to someone's viewpoint without being insulting.
Load More Replies...Yes, this can be an issue for some people, especially when drunk, as I got older I have learnt to listen and not just wait for my turn to speak, it can take a minute to change a trait like that, regardless if you are dumb or smart.
Reality TV shows. Particularly those that only use really pretty people.
Funny story but I was once told by a producer of one of those shows that my real life story was "too real" for reality T.V. Just to clarify I wasn't trying out for one, it came up in conversation. A very very interesting conversation at that.
Yeah, it can be annoying. They do that to make T.V. moer interesting to watch. I LOVE drama. Like love triangle drama, or jealous ex drama.
Reality shows on The History Channel that have absolutely nothing to do with history. But some idiots are trying to erase history so perhaps The History Channel is ahead of its time.
Being offended at everything and anything.
I find it's quite easy to pick holes in their arguments and find easy examples of them being massive hypocrites.
What... does that offend you?! So no one else should be offended except you?
Motorcyclists or pedestrians who mistake 'right of way' with 'immortality'.
Having to have the "correct thing" for some task. Like i have an old root beer can i'm using to water a plant in my bedroom. Get made fun of for it and told to get a real watering can. Why, exactly? How is a watering can better than what i have? if it were hard to reach and i needed the longer spout, ok, sure, but what i have works just fine, so why is it not ok?
as long as you aren't giving the plants root beer, there is not a problem
When people will call you a simp for liking something. For example, Minecraft and Minecraft youtubers.
me who was literally fangirling over Georgenotfound meeting Tommy(i watched the vid ^^) during my lunch:😅 yep....I'm not a simp (;w; I'm just joking...i don't simp cause they are irl people and have boundaries ;-; please no hate)
Audible masticators
I don’t do it on purpose. Both sides of my jaw click when I chew. No wonder I live alone!
I had a friend with a clicky jaw. He went to see a chiropractor who did a thing called Activator Method (activator.com - to find one). After one session he said it was the first time he opened his mouth without his jaw clicking in about 15 years. Who knows, maybe it'll work for you like it did for my friend?
Load More Replies...This is my all-time biggest pet peeve. It baffles me how some people will loudly pop and smack their gum around other people, like how does it not even occur to you that it might be annoying for some people? I can't stand mouth noises.
Yeah noisy eaters are quite testing, my brother is one, he also breaths really heavily through his nose while eating loud, he's a nightmare.
My sister is the reason I posted this, haha

I don't think I'm smarter than everyone else. I know I'm smarter than everyone else. /s
Rap music being played everywhere, all the time. Like excuse me, not everyone likes rap.
And played so loud from cars that it makes YOUR license plate vibrate.
Yeah I don't music being played anywhere at anytime, preferably something a bit heavier and angrier than rap music.
Pointless debates over things like coca cola vs. pepsi honestly who cares.
you know that you're old when you don't like both of them (and all other sodas)
when someone asks someone something when they are in a bad mood It feels like setting off a bomb.
Or telling you, "If you would just put where it belongs you would know where it is."
People.
Men commenting on women’s clothes being too revealing. Like don’t look, and if you can’t help yourself then YOU have a big problem
Let's flip that. Women dressing provocatively and then being angry when men check them out.
Man buns.
#3 was just talking about hating on something you don't like isn't cool and you should leave people alone, same applies here really, if a dude wants a man bun crack on pal.
Idk I think man buns are fine, if they make the guy feel comfortable then its fine
People who start sentences off with "I'm not *insert phobia or racist* but..."
They are trying to make it sound like they are not a bigoted assh**e, Then they spout off with their racist crap
People with no manners. Listening to music full blast on their phone, no headphones. Talking on speakerphone. Ignoring someone who says hi. People who tailgate, those who refuse to use a blinker. If you’re in such a dang rush that you need to drive like a total jerk, try leaving the house earlier. Problem solved. Bottom line is have manners. Don’t be a jerk face. If you treat others the way you would want to be treated, the world would be much more enjoyable. And be patient for gosh sakes. No need to always be in an ultra hurry. It’s not good for you.
I have to agree about manners. I was taught about manners in a VERY strict environment, yet I am forever grateful to have learned them and carried them throughout my entire adult life.
I talk on speakerphone because I can't hear the person talking otherwise, no matter how quiet it is around me. Sorry that annoys you.
Pet names....ik most people want to be called baby or babe or babygirl or princess but that just makes me want to jump off a cliff like use the name that was given to me. I’m not a child so don’t call me one..
I completely agree. I used to have a partner who called me "babe" and I was really uncomfortable with it, but I was too socially awkward to say so. They asked me to call them babe or baby or something but I couldn't without dying inside.
I haven't called my wife by her first name for years, it's babe, hun, dude or stinky face.
I’m actually the opposite 😄I don’t like it when my boyfriend calls me by my first name... I cringe on that 😄
Same here. The only time my partner has called me by my first name is if he's trying to get my attention when I space out or I can't hear him. He calls me by my first name and I immediately think he's either mad at me or I've done something wrong, but that stems from my family only calling me by my full name if they're mad at me. It's always nicknames in any other situation.
Load More Replies...Small talk...like, "weather sure is nice!"
yes same, like just come up to me and tell me all your deepest traumas and why you like one parent more than the other, don't talk to me about the weather susan
As a Brit, this is in our DNA, we love to talk about the weather every single day.
loud chewing and bad table manners. also hatimg certain things, just because everyone does that
I can't stand when people insult tik tokers or tik tok in general. If you don't like people dancing or doing trends then just ignore it. Most people on it are teens that already have enough on their minds and they don't need a bunch on annoying people who have nothing to do with them put them down more. What have they done to you? Danced better than you? Looked better than you? Had fun without your consent? They aren't bothering you so back off.
I haveno idea why you are being downvoted you're just talking about u hating people hating on tiktokers it is so foolish to be hated for hating something that people hate on, im so srry i said hate ALOT.
True true, it can be bad sometimes but you can learn a lot of stuff there
Load More Replies...the whole vibe of the r/i'm14andthisisdeep can't we just let kids be kids i think it's better that they express sadness through social media than being harmful to others in real life
Sooo, are you 14 and this is you expressing your sadness through social media so that you won't be harmful to others?
A lot of the posts are kind of harmful- especially when talking about mental health. Besides, no one is bullying the kids, just the whole idea. I'm saying this as a teen myself.
Jeans that ends above a bare ankle but fully clothes otherwise including hat.
Do you mean waders or capris or pants that are intended to actually be pant length but worn incorrectly?
I don't know for certain, but I suspect they mean the 'look' of jeans that end above a bare ankle but are fully clothed otherwise including a hat regardless of whether they're waders or capris or pants that are intended to actually be pant length but worn incorrectly.
Load More Replies...The Government
so you're saying you hate the people of the united states!? (if referring to the US government, which is by and for the people...supposedly)
When people whistle. I can not for the life of me figure out how to do it. People tell me how but its just confusing and I still can't do it. It just annoys me when people whistle around me because I can't do it myself.
Yeah same. Sometimes I make a random whistle, and I'm so surprised when I try to do it again, I can't.
Load More Replies...Videos of people hurting themselves.
On like "America's funniest videos," where they jump and fall through a trampoline and you can hear it hurt. Yet the audience is laughing about it and applauding.
I have never seen a video of someone hurting themselves, unless you mean accidentally? Like fail videos where people fall off bikes and stuff?
People watching me draw over my shoulder, slow walkers, computers always dying, and people who think that they are way better than everyone else.
Experts and people in general hating on those who use essential oil diffusers. Not everyone who uses those are under the incorrect assumption that they will cure any disease and don't deserve to be treated as stupid for using something that can be calming. Think of a scent from a fond childhood memory. That scent is likely to bring back a warm fuzzy feeling. The same goes for certain oils, some are simply relaxing and THAT is why many people use them (yes, I understand there is a whole new age homeopathic society that refuses modern medicine, I'm not including them in the 'use oil for the smell' group).
Cherry and lemon are my two favorite scents because my mother always smelled like cherry (she passed away when I was twelve) and she kept a beautiful crystal bowl filled with lemon drops on the dining room table
aww this is basically the same reason candy corn is my favorite halloween treat. my great-grandma always had a bowl of candy corn in her house... she passed when i was six. i loved her so much
Load More Replies...Some scents can also distract you from nausea and things like that too.
Agreed. I love scents. I have a wax burner, a diffuser, incense, and I love candles. It just calms me and makes my room smell good. Scents also help me stay focused.
CBD supposedly has some health benefits. But some of the claims are dubious. One site said it cures acne.
I use them when trying to cover the smell of my medical Marijuana that my yoga instructor prescribed for me...
Having a really big friend group. Personally, I just like having one really good friend and then some acquaintances, I guess. It is just less drama and you get to spend more time with your one friend.
i have a best friend and her other friend that hangs out with us to
That's what I wanted, but then my friend got a bunch of other friends and we're all a 'friendgroup' but shes my best friend and i only have one other person in that friendgroup i really talk to at all but even though my first friend says I'm her bestie, she's been hanging out with that other friend more and more. Whenever I ask "wyd?" it's always "facetiming [her], doing homework with [her], talking to [her]" when she doesn't respond for hours it's "sorry i was at [her] softball game, sorry i was hanging out with [her]" ALWAYS. i am not a jealous person at all, but it makes me so jealous. she sends me text conversations from me and [her] that show how amazing their friendship is (probably better than me and my friend) and i fought through the lesbian awkwardness to tell my friend i love her (as a friend) for the first time ever, and what's the first thing she says? "me and [her] tell each other we love each other like 4 times a day" Anyways, sorry I just went on a rant. Didn't mean to.
Anyways. Good point froggy. I like this one. Wish I could upvote more than once.
Load More Replies...The phrase “do your own research.” When it comes to air conditioners, knee surgery, or plumbing, people will only trust experts, but for some reason when it comes to astoundingly complex subjects like disease or climatology, then it’s time to cast them aside and look for the smoking gun in some dark corner of the web or on some dingbat’s YouTube channel to prove them all wrong.
Snoring. I think it hurts me physically.
Seems good to others? I don't think it seems like a good idea to others, nor do most have a choice in the matter. Some medical conditions, illnesses, and physical defects can cause snoring.
Greeting customers when they enter a store. Why would someone make it company policy for their employees to greet customers as if they genuinely cared - when they do not care and the customers are annoyed by the intrusion?
I kind of thought it was to deter stealing as in, "I see you so don't even think about it."
Greeting customers create a positive impression right after entering the store. It's a bit like giving dogs treats when comming home. We are social animals and connect the positive feel of being greeted with entering the shop everytime we do it. Marketing 101. Less common in supermarkets here in Europe, but smaller stores do that
I actually like it in places I frequent, where they actually remember you. But walking into a chain store, where a stressed cashier looks up with a fake smile to say their standard greeting phrase because that's corporate policy makes me cringe.
Load More Replies...I was told that it's done so that the customer is aware that the worker knows they're there - for loss prevention.
*I'm uncomfortable with strangers asking me if I need help or giving me a fake greeting. Fakeness never got one extra dollar from me when shopping.
on a bad day, it bothers me enough to leave the store again
Load More Replies...Its called the 10 foot rule. Many companies require their sales people to do this.
1. People saying “no offence” and assuming I’m not going to be offended. 2. When people sing during musicals when you’re seeing it for the first time. Like, I asked you fifty times and I just want to enjoy it!
When people tell me "no offence" i just brace myself and get ready to get offended.
I know, they’re basically saying “Get ready, I’m gonna say something offensive”

People who feel the need to post constantly on social media, I get it you like to go hiking Susan, a lot. Or constantly posting thirst trap selfies.
People on speaker phones in stores... I don’t want to hear your conversations. Cops that park illegally just to go in a store or put lights on to go through a red light & turn off after so you know they didn’t have a call.
Oscillating fans. "No, of course I don't want to be comfortable ALL the time. It's so much better to have a tiny sliver of comfort every once in a while, so the contrast makes me even more aware of the fact that the other 80% of the time I'm just as hot and miserable as if I hadn't turned on a fan in the first place!" I just don't get why this has to be the default setting on the majority of fans on the market.
It annoys me that there are only three countries on the planet that use [ officially ] the Imperial system of measurement.
people saying you cant say your age on social media I can say my age if I want
I think this is more of a safety thing for those who are underage.
I mean, if you're older than 18, sure. If you're like 12 and you tell people online, people might think you're easy to manipulate because you are so young.
putting your birthday on social media is not a good thing. Scammers can use it with other publically available information to steal your identity
Well not my birthday just my age group sorta thing

Thats the biggest problem with radio stations. they play the same songs over and over again. And rules are relaxed on how many stations a corporation can own. Clearchannel owns 1225 stations in 300 cities and dominates the audience share in 100 of 112 major markets.
When you're playing a game and your friends tell you that they actually want you to fail so that they can win.

Boba fett. I'm ready for the downvotes hit me.
people buying ALL the gluten free oreos. my fam is gluten-dairy free since november 2020 and oreo just released a gluten free kind. people buy them all. i bet like 80% of them aren't even gluten free, they just want the new oreos to look cool. now, we LOVE oreos, but since we went gluten free, we haven't been able to eat them. probably same goes for every gluten free person. now there's gluten free ones, and people are buying them up for no reason other than they're the new ones. it's annoying to the people that are gluten free and wanted to enjoy oreos again and quite rude. ok this has been my rant
I hate it when girls say their fat, when they are actually really skinny.
