What really grinds my gears #1
As I promised in my introduction post (an obvious call to action - visit my profile and read my posts, upvote and follow me xD ), my Steemit posts will be about, well, anything that makes me feel certain way. Right now I am introducing to you #1 of What really grinds my gears. You might already know that it is/was a popular meme, especially on 9gag, but the first time I saw it was on Family Guy. Instead of a TV show, I will just make lists of things that irritate me on such level, that I need to publish them.
I am very easily irritated. Must be honest. I probably irritate other people by being irritated by so many things. However, I kind of see it as an exhaust system for me, to simply state what bothers me that is. Sharing my thoughts really helps me cope with the flawed world. I seek perfectionism, even when I am aware it cannot exist always.
So what does really grind my gears?
- Media. Mashable for example. If its not a clickbait, it's a shared link on Facebook that in description has the title of the article! Thank you, I needed to read that twice, my life cannot be more complete.
- People joining a certain group on Facebook, and then asking something that they could have simply googled. Please, let me google that for you!
- Loud chewers, suckers (lollipop or bonbon) and chewing gum bubble poppers! I suffer from misophonia. I will write about misophonia, people need to know more. They suffer from bad manners. I will move to Malaysia.
- Amount of parents that post photos of their naked youngsters! Did you hear about the creeps? Protect your kids!
- Articles about how a plant you always had in your garden can miraculously take away your wrinkles, orange skin, grey hairs, diabetes, acid reflux, and debt in the bank. Oh, and it's the substitute for laundry powder! Even worse, when people actually share that. And believe it.
- Selfies 23x a day, with or without those stickers and filters with dog ears and tongue.
- Cooked onion xD Damn you, you remind me of worms!
- Some patterns. Well, they make me sick and nauseous, not irritated.
- Drunks under my window (we live in the city center) and their screaming at 3AM.
- Pink tax (worth writing about)
- Price of Fika in Sweden
There is more. But I will leave that for the next time something grinds my gears and I get inspired to write about it.
I am not a negative person. I like to improve things. I am full of ideas. But sometimes, I just need to whine a little bit.
Now I am inspired to write again about food! Venting helped xD
Thanks people, please vote and follow me. I will do the same :)
Cheers!
