40% of my work day is deleting all of the one word or one sentence Reply All emails intended for someone else because people need to be SEEN telling someone "congrats!" I don't know really. #Netiquette #PetPeeves #ReplyAll

Email ads even from companies I already shop from that act like 3rd rate spammers and use re in the subject lines really annoy me to no end. Why you shouldn't use 'RE' in your Subject Lines https://sendcheckit.com/blog/why-you-shouldnt-use-re-for-your-subject-lines #PetPeeves #lame #stupid #spam

If you order a Caesar salad to be delivered, do you like to have the dressing on the side or do you like it already mixed up?

Why does nobody, on Facebook, make their own #AltText it's just bot-generated, nearly useless stuff. #PetPeeves

#PetPeeves - folks who have zero original content. Silly clout chasing olks who try to gain more followers here - by posting professional photographs from people they've never ever connected with on any platforms & they post images without photographer's consent & don't include proper credits/link to photographer's site.

That's not fucking cool.

Please stop boosting posts from folks who exploit creative works from visual artists. It's disrespectful & unethical to boot.

Hey! Is there a technical reason why printer paper trays don't hold a full 500 sheet ream? It's bugged me forever that I have to have an open pack sitting around.

Thanks!

#PetPeeves I get irrationally, "punch-a-wall" infuriated by - #MagicTheGathering Edition

People who call instant and sorceries "spells." 😒

"I drafted Izzet Spells" 😠 "I have 14 creatures and 9 spells" 😡

Everything that's not a land is a spell in Magic! "wHaT aBoUt ToKeNs Or EmBlEmS?" shut it, nerd! 🤬 those aren't cards!

Yes, I know people get the meaning

Yes, I know there's not a good name for that subset of cards

It. Bothers. Me 💢

But, y'know, it's not a huge deal or anything 😇

Bookish pet peeve: When literary authors skip using proper punctuation. Once I learned Sally Rooney doesn’t use quotations for dialogue, I decided she probably wasn’t for me. I’d spend the whole book annoyed by this.

I’ll give McCarthy a pass for not doing it in The Road because it made sense in a way. If it’s a normal novel about life? Bugger off.

Why don't people include days of the week in announcements? Why?! :lego_sad: I have no idea what day October 14 is, or even June 14 for that matter! Just tell me, so I immediately know whether I can make it or not, why is that so hard Aaaaaaaaaaah /rant #petpeeves

I can’t believe that in this the year of our Lord, 2023, we are still defaulting to using masculine pronouns for the general case. I’m reading a book about writing technique and the writer is always referred to as ‘he’, the character is always referred to as ‘he’, the audience (if singular) is ‘he’. It’s not that fucking hard to use ‘they’, jfc.

One thing I was taught to never say when I #write in my academic background was "in depth". Now it annoys me even when I know it doesn't hurt anything. 🤣😂

I really, really don't like clicking a link to check out a site that sounded interesting, and finding it has been translated into my native Swedish by a computer. It's invariably awful. It's reason enough not to explore the site.
I get its a useful help for a lot of people, but it's painful to read and sometimes pretty confusing.

Great. Another house in my neighborhood is flying a Cantaloupe Caligula flag, this time it says "Trump/Nugent 2024."

Here I thought I lived in a respectable part of town, but I guess I don't. Trash everywhere, stinking up the joint. Fucking Christ. #politics #petpeeves

Oh great. Now even young boys wear these boring as fuck beige coats for the changing seasons. Cause it wasn’t boring enough with 70% of the female population wearing it.

#petpeeves

The #weather today is absolute shit. It was over 80 yesterday and sunny. Today? Low 40s and pissing rain. PICK A SEASON, PLEASE. #petpeeves

Some people type on their keyboards like they want to fucking break the thing.

While I think hashtags are a great idea, ffs, lines and lines of hashtags just makes your post look like spam. Just stop.

I was thinking about publishing a book of sketches that confess my many pet peeves as an artist. However I’m not sure anyone would be interested in seeing what irks me so I guess I’ll keep on with the status quo for commissioning my illustrative services. #art #illustration #sketchbook #pendrawing #petpeeves #artíste #mastoart
