Shit that annoys you

Does she park in blue spaces? That’s bad karma. If it’s just to save on feeding meters I’ve got no issue with that.

Yeah blue spots right up front.

A Monday morning inbox filled with reminders and tasks that I didn't get to last week. At least it's a 5 day work week right? Ugh

There's still meters where you are??

Well I just found about Highland Falls NY where my family lives. Massive flooding but they are OK

"Use your google account to sign in to whatever.com"

Those popups annoy me.

2023 is annoying me so far.

I live in SF. Every square inch is covered w meter or permit only parking

[Meconium]

Work parking lot is just a lot. It kind of annoys me that people always park in the same spot. I just pull in at park waverer, annoying the employees habitual habits.

It's all on-line apps around here (Davis) e.g. Park mobile; it's almost more work than dropping quarters, but I do not miss having to have 5 rolls of quarters in my car.

You monster. I park in the same spot every day because I shut my brain off at work and if I'm in a different spot I will still walk mindlessly to the usual one.

not calling this a "10 day forecast" annoys me

[Ted Striker]

The notion that tv stations can predict the weather beyond three days both amuses and annoys me.

[old goat]

I drive my mom to the bank. She insists I park in the handicapped spot, even though I'm the only one going in. She has the card and she's damn well gonna use it.
The guy next door used his mother's for years after she died. Now he's old enough to need it.

There aren’t any TV stations here, but our local forecaster is the first one to be like “Jeez, I don’t fucking know, it’s the mountains!”
But he’s a legit BC skier/forecaster, lol…

God I sometimes wish I could punch app developers in the face. Our office just had a software update to Outlook (maybe other stuff too). I open Outlook and my quick links to mail and calendars and tasks, that used to be at the bottom left of the screen, are now in a vertical bar along the left side. Why? I suppose it's not a big deal but I have a lot of muscle memory and don't know why that had to change. Right clicking to move toolbars or whatnot doesn't yield any results. Going into "Options" doesn't point to any obvious choices. Eventually, I find -- in the "Advanced" option tab -- a thing called "Outlook panes". The choices there still don't seem to offer any solutions, except there's a checkbox for "Show Apps in Outlook", with a little "info" icon next to it. Hovering over that says something like "turn off this setting to snooze this feature and return to the classic Outlook navigation bar". Still isn't clear from that, but yes, turning off the feature, closing and reopening Outlook, returns me to the usual screen setup.

Just typing that makes me want to punch the app developer a second time.

"Outlook pains"

lol

Pane pains?

Codicil to this: people who seem to think the weather people on TV are actually predicting weather. They are simply regurgitating data from other sources.

[Jax]

I've had to revert back to the 'classic' outlook at least 4 times the past year. And that annoying thing they did with each sender's initial in a brightly colored circle- wtf, it's doubly-annoying in dark mode. Looks like a children's game or some millennial app crap.


And, I'm not sure what mailing list I got on, but I keep getting solicitations for Medicare Supplement in the mail, even from my insurance company. Like giant flyers and shit. Doesn't my insurance company know how old (young) I am? Late 40's but I'm still in my 40's. Ugh.

That's not necessarily true. Chris Tomer is a TV weather guy and most certainly is predicting the weather, not just regurgitating NWS forecasts. I have no idea if he is a big exception though.

[highangle]

lol

Gone that route. When you finally crack the badge codes and work your way through the Microsoft Campus in Redmond, you get to a very average little workspace and there's a little guy from Regina Saskatchewan you can't punch in the nose because he's spectrum disordered.

Yeah, but he's certainly starting from the NWS forecast or some other weather modeler. He might be adding some minor touches based on local knowledge, but he ain't just winging it.
