Re: Things and Sayings That Annoy!
Antifa...is very annoying, considering they are hate filled Pro Fascists!
Vegans are annoying, because man they don't want to kill animals for food...well, when's the last time you ate a big old medium rare steak? Me - Last night! Deeeeeelicious!
One of my wife's friends, who is an old fashioned hippie type, (she's no dummy with an advanced degree in math) tried to convince us to also be vegans. Claiming she wouldn't eat anything with a face. Ah, until she tired of eating rabbit food and rejoined us omnivores by eating massive quantities of meat...

Thing:
People that wait until the cashier tells them the total to whip out the wallet.

It is what it is.

I'm annoyed by people preaching tolerance while practicing extreme intolerance towards anything that differs from their own beliefs.
The word "surely" that sounds like the name "Shirley". But this doesn't stop me from enjoying old movies starring Shirley Temple.

Don't call me Shirley.

Re: Things and Sayings That Annoy!
Being employed in corporate America, I'm guilty of using using the business speak lingo, but I still find it odd when I sit down and think about it. If I talked to my wife the way I do my co-workers and those I manage, I think she'd have me committed.
I have to admit I don't care for the slang that younger people use these days but I try to remember the older generations didn't like mine either.

A 2nd vote for "It is what it is." Hate it.
Ask for a progress report: "How's your project going?"
"It's going."
"Per se"
Over 30 with a baseball cap backwards and sitting in a chair backwards.
People who go out to dinner in shorts and flip flops. Not McDonald's. Texas Roadhouse.
"Vaping" and talking about flavors, etc. incessantly. Chew your tobacco like a man.
Hipsters. Don't even like the word.
Rude people.
How much longer do I have?

The word “melty”
It’s not a word, and if you use it to describe your restaurant’s food, it’s probably terrible.

Watching football today I lost count of how many times I heard the word physicality and the phrase “lost contain”. Both annoy me greatly.

Texas Roadhouse isn't exactly the paragon of fine dining....

Now excuse me while I go to the head, not to shave (I like stubble), but to sweep the deck.

Re: Things and Sayings That Annoy!
3rd vote for "It is what it is".
Also things that annoy me:
"Ok"
As in, 'Hey, would you like to meet for dinner around 7pm?'
Reply: Ok.

OMG, it seems everybody is "reaching out" to someone or something?
Re: Things and Sayings That Annoy!
Parents who don't let their children evolve into adults by completely supporting them practically into perpetuity.
Example: My brother in law who lived with and was supported by his parents into his mid-forties. His Mother even still made his bed for him. Finally, he left the nest, got a job, got married. Then got divorced, fired and committed suicide. He was unprepared to endure the sometime hardships we are sometimes faced with...
Had he been allowed to suffer the slings and arrows of growing up, he probably would've handled hardship without self destruction.

People who wear their shorts/long pants too, below their butt.
This I not only find annoying it has the added effects of creating disgust and contempt for these loutish sub-humans.
