So, to elaborate (which is obviously very much needed here): my boyfriend having a cold and whining about it and trying to make me do stuff for him like walking to a store 25 minutes away when we have one just around the corner just to buy tea with a flavor they don't have at the store that's closer - when I'm sick too - is pissing me off.

Women are better nurturers so it's in your genes to take care of us when we're ill. My gf waits on me hand and foot when I get sick, it's awesome. Very comforting to have someone like that around.

I'm the same when my boyfriend gets sick. I'll try to fetch things for him or make him food or go out and get water not because he asks me to but because I want to do that for him.

Well I did offer to (and did) go to the nearby store to grab some tea and other stuff tho, so, you know, not completely cold hearted lmao jsyk

That's a good relationship you have. And it probably makes you feel good to help him out when he's feeling bad.

I think it works well for both individuals in a relationship to use their personal strengths and talents to make an overall better situation. Two people united in a marriage or serious relationship that have the best interests of one another in mind can be a powerful thing.

It was also because his coworkers kept coughing around him all the time and getting him sick, so I'd want him to feel better sooner because he'd still be at work. (With a mask on.) Which is another thing that pissed me off all the time. His dumbass coworkers kept making him and other people sick because they wouldn't wear face masks to protect the rest of the group.
 
The tech support scammers who keep calling my parents trying to rip them off. My parents know about the scam and don't fall for it. My mom just hangs up, and my dad, who is a therapist, tries to counsel them on their life choices that led them up to this. Usually they hang up on him.
People who are rude to others for no reason other than they think it makes them look tough.
Porch pirates.
Versions of me in other universes who have a better life than I do.
 
People who act holier than thou than others rambling how they have productive lives and are normal people yet at the same time regularly have an addiction to websites such as 4chan.
 
40+ year olds who managed to live four decades without figuring out that they need to fucking clean themselves at least once a fucking day. I'm talking about a very specific stink, the type of smell you get from someone who hasn't showered in at least two days minimum. I had a gross tardman ruin my lunch at work today because his rank BO wafted over to my nose. It's such a distinct smell, I call it "two week aged armpit crust" it's a haunting smoked scent of quadruple dried sweat that was layered over like a fucking japanese sword. Gross.
 
People who think the government is completely incompetent, but at the same time is capable of pulling off vast conspiracies without detection.

Whoever smashed out my back window on Halloween.
 
Sort of a dumb gripe and I may get shit for it, but I dislike when people say "Michael Jackson was obviously a pedo!" without knowing the truth behind it. (Extortion, people wanting to ruin his career)

Mostly because I was fan of his music as a kid and people somehow think you support a horrible person according to the media. When I did eventually look up the allegations on my own, it just seemed like a circus. The things they tried to accuse him of didn't make sense and the events didn't add up. I'm not going to deny that Michael himself was "weird" but mostly because he was reclusive and had been through abuse as well. I feel that people don't take into account how his own children were affected and harassed by weirdos that wanted to pry into his private life, looking for things to expose him for.

He's been dead for almost 10 years now and there's people still trying to claim he "totally had CP on him!"
 
BMW driver, and their smug asshole faces.

Don't you glare at me when it's your fault that you took too long to turn in the intersection and the light turned green, so you got honked at. Every BMW driver I've seen thinks he's king of the road.
 
When you're looking for something, say in a store, and it's literally right in front of your fucking nose and you know that it's supposed to be there because you've bought it multiple times but you somehow don't notice it until you ask a store employee and they point it out to you, and you have no clue how you missed it. I worked at a grocery store for a few years so I know it's not just me, because I've had to be the employee that points the obvious item out a few times, but it still infuriates me when I somehow miss something extremely obvious.

When I used to work at that same grocery store people would always leave their shopping carts right outside the door. For the love of god, it's an extra 30 seconds to just bring it inside with the rest of the carts, are you so damned lazy that putting in that tiny bit of extra effort is too hard for you?

There's a retirement home near the aforementioned grocery store, and since the grocery store is a mom and pop place they offer a 10% off seniors discount on Mondays, so all the old folks would come down from the retirement home to buy their groceries, and that's all fine and dandy. But the problem is that they all walked, so they'd load up one of the half-sized grocery carts with their stuff, buy their stuff, then trundle up the hill to the retirement home with the shopping cart, unload their groceries, and then they'd keep the carts there like they owned them. I get that some of them didn't have cars, or didn't see the point to driving for a five minute walk, but they could at least have one of the employees return the goddamn carts after they used them. We were perpetually down 30 carts at any given time as a result, and we barely had enough carts on a busy day as it was. It didn't even matter if we went up to retrieve them, since by next week they'd have accumulated there again. That really ground my gears during my time there.
 
People who chew with their mouths open and smack them lips. It’s a gripe of mine that ignites the anger of a million exploding suns inside of me. It takes every bit of restraint and every fiber of my being not to beat a motherfucker with a tire iron.
 
The fact that Pluto isn't considered a planet anymore. Like fuck off y'all, we named him, we watched him for thousands of years, and now suddenly some asshole desperate to get his name out but not willing to do any actual work just waltzes in and says it's not a planet because he feels like it's not.

Also the fact that meth labs and mad bombers have made it so that chemistry isn't really a hobby anymore. Always wanted to get into it, but these days it seems really hard to reliably get your hands on any of the components you'd need.
