People

Lactose

People being rude to customer facing employees.

People who think they’re an island. I don’t know how to describe it. People who operate like little effort should be expended on the fact that other humans exist around them and they’re part of society along with some responsibility for that society. Doesn’t matter if it’s stopping in the middle of a busy sidewalk in a group and blocking it, driving the speed limit in the passing lane, or utterly destroying the use of spelling, grammar, and punctuation in an online post forcing the reader to translate it into something meaningful. People unwilling to return the courtesies and efforts those around them offer by default.

Chocolate! I have no idea why but if I eat more than a small bar of chocolate in a short time span I get this tingling sensation in my mouth, forehead and temples. It's not painful or anything just very weird and I've had it all my life. I've been tested for an allergy to chocolate and it came back negative!

Noise.

The sound of other people eating.

Littering.

Cars in cities.

You don't realize how insane they are until you spend time somewhere without them.

People who micromanage, either directed at me or someone else

Weed

Wood in my mouth; I struggle with popsicle sticks and chopsticks as a result.

People unable to pick up sarcasm through text.

People misusing words

Coffee :(

The "virus wombo combo" of mono and COVID fucked a lot of things up permanently, but most of them have rebounded to an acceptable state. Whenever I drink coffee it fucks me up, even decaf coffee. Makes me feel tired as hell, stressed, overstimulated. It also seems to last for almost a full day. Drink coffee in the morning, and I have a big chance of sleeping badly.

Not that it's guaranteed to hold me back...

Every now and then the sane part of my brain forgets to pay attention and my coffee craving gets the better of me.

AI

People who chew with their mouth open. Looks and sounds disgusting.

Starch. This limits what I can eat. Unfortunately I didn't know this growing up, so I ate a pretty carb heavy diet which caused health issues which caused me to be grouchy a lot. Took until I nearly 40 to figure out that I wasn't just an unstable asshole.

Inconsideration. Drives me absolutely crazy.

Stupid things like being at work, someone uses the last of something and just leaves the empty box and tells no one that we're out. To me that says "fuck you, someone else can clean this. I got what I need, the person who needs it next can say we need more."

Littering, especially cigarette butts. Nothing sends me into a blind rage faster than seeing someone flick a cigarette butt out their car window. Not littering is SO easy, the bar is on the floor, and yet so many people just don’t care at all.

_Everything _ for some reason I am super sensitive to drugs of nearly any kind

Bullying, weather it is physical, intellectual or emotional...it just grinds my gears.

At this point, everything.

Intolerance.

People who call putting an ipad in front of their kid "parenting".

Hypocrisy

Arrogance

milk

Intolerance.

Thanks karl popper.

Bigotry

Cars, plastic, capitalism and fascism.

Idiots.

Though sometimes that includes myself.
