What's the weirdest thing you're upset about?
-
Reseed with clover and then plant moss and native flora. Its good for helping out bees and other pollinators and invites other wildlife into your yard if live up against woods like I do. I've seen rabbits, raccoons, deer, flocks of turkey, and even a bobcat once.
HOAs can eat my whole ass.
And today on Lemmy we learned that bees thrive on the right amount of the nutrient sterol

The world is cruel and ugly. There are plenty of justifiable things to be upset and distraught over. I don't want to hear about those. I want to know what bizarre out of left field takes you have that infuriates you.
I'm still upset about Tenochtitlan falling and being buried. I'm a gringo, I shouldn't have an opinion about Lake Texcoco being drained centuries ago.
People who chew with their mouths open should be fucking euthanized.
Obviously, I don’t actually think that, but as a misophonic person who was brought up right, it drives me fucking insane when people do this.

Those plastic bags at the grocery store, to put loose fresh produce in? Why the fuck do they never open easily? With all these whizz-bang technologies we've developed, you'd think someone would design/make bags you don't have to wrestle with to open.
paper produce bags enter the chat

That vacuums are so terribly loud and whiny (and unnecessarily tiny space heaters). Older vacuums used to be bigger and run slower, but in my experience vacuumed as much or even better. Nowadays they put several kilowatt motors in there that somehow don't do as much but produce immense noise and heat.
If someone vacuums with their window open I can tell from over 100m away by the whine. Fuck that.
I used to hate vaccuming because of that. I'm glad to have an actually quiet vacuum now (a Henry). They're rare, but they do exist.

I was talking with a guy at work the other day about this. Apparently he and I are both guilty of trying to exit insert mode and run vim commands in windows notepad.
I can't even count the amount of times I've sent some variation of "Yeah, so I think we should reboot the server:wq" into irc

Shit observational comedians harvesting this thread for material

Don't send me videos if the background audio is some asshat wheeze-laughing about whatever supposed funny thing is playing. It's never funny and it ruins my interest in watching the shit immediately.
I feel the same about videos with titles like "Try not to laugh challenge" - well guess what, I'm not watching your video and I won your challenge, plus I saved myself some time. Just... leave it to me to decide for myself what I find funny, okay?
-
How I feel about motorcycles.
Motorcycles are better than cars though. On average they get many more miles to the gallon and they cause less traffic than the giant SUVs that Americans are addicted to.

Timezones are fucking dumb and I hate them
I understand why we have timezones, but I've never heard an explanation for leap seconds that was particularly compelling.
I know that years and days don't exactly match up, but as far as I'm concerned, whoever it is that's being inconvenienced by the Earth being a few seconds out of rotation can go figure out their own workaround instead of messing up a million peoples' daily rollup scripts.

Came here to add this to the comment chain haha. It's never worthit.

Yep. If the video has to explicitly encourage you to watch it, just imagine how worthless it is.

I'm sick to fucking death of hearing about the quantum multiverse. It's a delusional fantasy, and even though I respect the hell out of Sean Carol, it's time for him to shut the fuck up about it and stop giving it air.
I'm tired of hearing about the quantum multiverse which is a fantasy, and I'm tired of hearing about quantum consciousness and all that other fucking horse shit.
wrote last edited by [email protected]During my quantum mechanics course in year one of uni the lecturer spent the entirety of first lecture essentially ranting about how all of these "interpretations" of quantum mechanics are a complete waste of time with zero practical application. So you're not alone on this one.
EDIT wait no lmao the course wasn't even on quantum mechanics it was on electromagnetism, the lecturer just had a personal gripe against all this quantum bullshit lol.

Hating daylight savings isn't weird, it's dumb and everyone knows it's dumb.
Timezones are arbitrary lines on the map that were made when trains were new and there was no good way to coordinate otherwise. We are way past that, everyone has an automatically synced and precise way of telling time on them pretty much at all times. The "time" is an arbitrary number. Noon is not when the sun is highest in the sky most of the year unless you live near the equator, midnight is rarely "the middle of the night", 9 to 5 should be deleted, and have one universal time would be one step closer to uniting human kind.
Timezones are fucking dumb, it's not the 1800s. I'll fight to the death over this.
I've argued for this before, both on Lemmy and elsewhere. Nice to see someone else with the same take.
Do you also get the impression that people who disagree with you almost always fail to understand the argument?

So there's this discounter chain. Their toilet paper store brand is called Happy End. Goddam it. Just writing it ticks me off. I don't understand why anyone would do that. I go out of my way to buy TP elsewhere. Am I really the only one? I can't be the only one. It's such a terrible pun. Why are they not rebranding? FFS

Bicycle drivetrains keep getting more complex and expensive. A 3x9 drivetrain is beyond adequate, bulletproof, and inexpensive. But NooOoOoOooo, it's nearly impossible to get a quality bike with 3x9 now, without a full custom, DIY build. Everything has to be 1x11/12, which is expensive, touchy, and very particular, all while still lacking the gear range of 3x9.
It all seriously sticks in my craw.
Agree with the overall sentiment: the trend towards more complexity is silly, but triples are terrible.
