    Shit that annoys you

    Yeah and I’ve never looked at it.

    Another IG thing that drives me insane. How people post like 25 clips in their Stories a day, basically documenting every step of their day (including videoing as they run, looking down at their feet!)
    How are people that self centered to think anyone gives a fuck about every moment of your day?

    the ones that crack me up are the running selfies where they run by the camera

    like, do you really interrupt your run to set up a shot and then run by it then come back and get the phone and start over?

    I don’t get it
    I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.

    People at airports with no situational awareness. Blocking the moving walkway this time... completely oblivious.

    I think it's very much a generational thing. Those of us of a certain vintage think something needs to be interesting or novel to be worthy of recording (and certainly to be worthy of distributing publicly). For Gen Zers documenting every facet of their lives is second nature.

    My next door neighbors told me some folks staying at an air B and B asked if it would be ok if they took some of my wood for their fire pit. Fortunately the neighbors were there and said no he uses that to heat his house. I hate the houses turned into air B and B. Owners don’t live their, folks come on vacation so up all night partying, driving fast up and down the street and my taxes have skyrocketed as folks buy houses just to rent by the week

    I'm getting there... The ads are one thing but the suggested reels with the fucking viral songs over stupid clips are insufferable. "Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no......" I have a small number of people I follow who I wouldn't be able to otherwise but Ive deleted most people I don't know. I still use it as a sort of trip report for cool rides Ive done more for myself than anyone else. No selfies, ha

    An old friend of mine and I use the beer and a burger as a metric for places. It's surprisingly accurate as to the temperament of the community, not to the temp of the beer, or the tastiness of the burger mind you.

    Exactly. If there are no cheezburga, I use the beer and a shot metric. If that's a fiver, then I think I'm probably in a pretty good or sketchy AF place. Both of which I do not mind.

    Holy shit, yes! Those are mind boggling. Do they not feel embarrassed at all? Like take a step back and think about what you’re actually doing.

    I think you mean “mind bottling.”

    How about those super annoying Insta 360 cams that people wear. How dumb do you look hiking or biking with a pole sticking up above you, recording the back of your head during your trek? Plus the footage is awful - the distorted fisheye makes it unwatchable.

    Old codgers complaining about how the kids do things.

    It’s not complaining. It’s laughing at the mind boggling narcissism.

    Let's not pretend like it's anything new, though...
