What's the weirdest thing you're upset about? (lemmy.world)

The world is cruel and ugly. There are plenty of justifiable things to be upset and distraught over. I don't want to hear about those. I want to know what bizarre out of left field takes you have that infuriates you.

I'm still upset about Tenochtitlan falling and being buried. I'm a gringo, I shouldn't have an opinion about Lake Texcoco being drained centuries ago.

That vacuums are so terribly loud and whiny (and unnecessarily tiny space heaters). Older vacuums used to be bigger and run slower, but in my experience vacuumed as much or even better. Nowadays they put several kilowatt motors in there that somehow don't do as much but produce immense noise and heat.

If someone vacuums with their window open I can tell from over 100m away by the whine. Fuck that.

I used to hate vaccuming because of that. I'm glad to have an actually quiet vacuum now (a Henry). They're rare, but they do exist.

People who chew with their mouths open should be fucking euthanized.

Obviously, I don’t actually think that, but as a misophonic person who was brought up right, it drives me fucking insane when people do this.

Shit observational comedians harvesting this thread for material

So there's this discounter chain. Their toilet paper store brand is called Happy End. Goddam it. Just writing it ticks me off. I don't understand why anyone would do that. I go out of my way to buy TP elsewhere. Am I really the only one? I can't be the only one. It's such a terrible pun. Why are they not rebranding? FFS

The foxwq client isn't free software. It is a great injustice.

That everyone dies alone.

Really? Some people die in airplane crash while holding hands with a loved one sitting next to them.

The lovers who died in an embrace together in that Pompeii volcano disaster a long time ago

People die together sometimes in car crashes
