RANDOM THINGS YOU HATE

I heard someone at the tube station referring to women as “chicks” earlier this evening. I wasn’t at all impressed. How very DATED!
 
Also it usually presents as deliberately making choices which will have the worst possible outcome. I used to have sympathy for this but NOT THESE DAYS :)

And something else I hate: MARTYR SYNDROME (usually combined with being a VICTIM)

“Look how much I give and look how badly I’m treated.”

Oh FUCK OFF!

Self martyrdom at work is the worst. I'm sure some volunteer for all sorts of extra shit solely so they can then moan about how much they do. And then it becomes expected that others will do it as well.
 
When a DEAR COLLEAGUE randomly copies you into an email chain that has been going on for TWO MONTHS PRIOR requesting an urgent creative brief for the end of day that you have no prior warning or knowledge of :hostage:

And of COURSE, instructions in SAID EMAIL are in no way clear or especially coherent in regards to what the DEAR COLLEAGUE's expectation of said creative is :hostage:

*Buries head in sand and listens to Motomami all day instead* :disco:

Oh God, I hate that!

Another variation is when you send an email to multiple people because they’re all needed in the conversation but then some of them only replies back to you. :evil:
 
I went to TWO shops today to buy my signature fragrance (well, one of two: the other one is a €1K limited edition bought for me by my very dear friend and man’s man Pippi Kirkirov) only to be told that there are issues in PARIS and they’re OUT OF STOCK

CAN YOU IMAGINE THE TEMPER AND EXHAUSTION
 
The following happens every Christmas:

"What aftershave are you wearing?"

(It varies but it's generally) "Terre d'Hermès."

"WHAT IS IT?"

"Terre d'Hermès."

"CAN YOU SAY IT HOW WE WOULD PLEASE."

:argh::argh::argh:

Honestly I really shouldn't have ideas above my station (an accusation which has been thrown in my direction on more than one occasion) and just wear DAVID BECKHAM HOMME
 
Are ashtrays and corksrews comparable? I don’t own an ashtray, but I don’t want people smoking cigarettes in my home anyway
 
Me on 15 March: I will send out a zoom link on the day of the meeting, 23 March.

Them: ok, thanks!

Then on 22 March: why haven’t I gotten a link for the meeting yet? Is it cancelled? Why am I not being communicated with? Please respond now even though it’s after work hours.

Made worse by getting fact that you know damn well that if you HAD sent a link for the meeting in the original email, you'd be flooded with 'I haven't had the link yet!' emails about 10 minutes before it was due to start

Yes!! That’s why I thought it would be better to send it the day of
 
I mean the usage of the term “100%”. I did not mean to imply I was in absolute agreement with RJN

How people don’t say their opinions like they are opinions anymore, there are no subtleties in the language now, it’s always just MY OPINION IS FACT.

It could be as simple as “That’s shit” instead of “I think that’s shit”, all the way through “Let’s face it” to “I can’t get my head around people thinking that”

I don’t think it was always like that, and it makes the internet a bit of an aggressive read these days

Oh God, yes, THIS! And then you're the bad person for sending it early "I mean, I get so many e-mails, it's easy for me to miss these things". Oh, OK, no worries, next time I'll hire a plane to fly outside your window with a banner displaying the link and a fucking firework display, how's that?
 
Also:

"I need an hour with you for a meeting tomorrow"
Sure, when's good?
"About 2pm?"
No worries.

The following day:
"I am out of the office on annual leave until 28th March"
:argh::argh::argh::argh:
 
People who describe other people's bad behaviour like "I've been gaslit by her so many times, it's so clear she's a narcissist, and I need to cut that toxic energy out of my life."

And their own bad behaviour like "I'm a Scorpio lol."
