Things that annoy you

Sometimes mere existence will do it. It’s certainly not intentional.
Perhaps it would make more sense if I said I’m annoyed by my “self”. Works both ways.
These bass gurus that claim you don't need theory to understand music....and then in the next breath tell you that they were classically trained and went to music university for 12 years.
People who use terms like “pea strainer, diaper brigade or early bedtimers”. In my 20s and 30s when I rode dirt bikes over whoops at full throttle or raced sprint cars I never thought that I’d ever be a 60 year old, grey haired guy that needs a cane to get around. But I am. And unless you die first so will all of you.
On a similar note....scientific studies that don't ever discuss why some people,like me, like complex,dissonant difficult music.
I just drove cross country. Half the places I stopped to make a purchase wanted an extra buck or two for a charity. Now I am a very benevolent fellow. But this somehow felt like coercion. How do you check the accuracy of the donation and if you don’t then you feel like a heal. That annoyed the devil out of me...
So does that mean that those who like simple songs are................?Nothing to discuss....
You're a complex, dissonant difficult person...
Several new bands I joined last year with the promise of shows and festivals......None came to fruition....Grrrr
Imgur. Great for hosting images, but it ultimately is an image hosting website masquerading as a social media platform. I uploaded some images of one of my basses, and some total stranger started commenting on the height of the action. All of this because I didn't set the image to 'private'. What the heck is this? What sort of losers hang out on an image hosting website all day?
The main page seems to be the source of this, with users upvoting photos. Again, pathetic. An obvious political bias on show, and clearly a strong tie to Reddit for whatever reason. The same sanctimonious pseudo-intellectualism that pervades Reddit seems to get all over Imgur as well.
Whenever I want to upload a photo to the web, I then want to take a detour via photos of random dogs, cosplay girls and ancient memes.... said nobody ever.
