PASSWORDS!!!
Trying to remember them for so many different accounts etc. I have an OLD Hilton Honors account that is apparently tied to my email address. Trying to sign in - impossible because I don't remember enough info (contacted customer service) and can't set up a new account with my email address because it's linked to the old account.  
And that's just one example of how much "fun" you can have trying to remember which ones require a capital letter and a number and a symbol and 57 other requirements to make the password acceptable. Ugh!
OMG SO FRIGGAN ANNOYING!!!!!!! Or when you try to sign into something..for me my student loan account... and you can't remember the password and you try 3 times, it locks you out and then you have to reset but can't use one of your last SEVEN passwords?! which is why you can't remember it to begin with. I actually lost my shit a few months ago, called Navient and screamed at the poor customer service agent that this is completely stupid, it has higher security than any of my actual banks and if someone wants to hack into my student loan account...wait? what? That would NEVER happen! Who wants to pay off my loans??? And if they do, terrific!
I just had to change my Jetblue password. It said it can't be any of my last 20 passwords!!!  
I can't stand "feels/all the feels" or whatever the phrase is. Now there is a song with that in it. Horrible.

Stupid little things that piss you off
OK, I hate those FB updates that look like signs (red background with white letters, etc.). I read it thinking it's something important and then realize it's just your stupid update about the weather.

Stupid little things that piss you off
These are so funny!!!
Apologies in advance if anyone does this but here are is my list...
1 - Facebook posts that are so sickingly sweet you just want to puke. My cousin's wife wrote something like this on his birthday...."you are my rock, I would be lost without you....". The only thing I would say my husband and a rock gave in common is that they are both dense ??
2 - hashtags! I know this was said already but #idontwanttoreadhalfyourpostthisway
3 - people who take pictures and post them at EVERY social gathering they are at! Call me crazy, but at social gatherings I actually SOCIALIZE and don't have time or interest to take photos!
There are definitely more but I just realized that all of the above are tied to social media....maybe this is telling me something!

Fb related. My sister in law had professional pics taken of her son, and her dh and her. They've been shared by everyone under the sun.
My mil used to share all my posts, but she stopped doing that

Stupid little things that piss you off
People who post pictures/updates about their kids multiple times a day. I have a FB friend who, no exaggeration, shares every single thing her kids do. Them eating breakfast, them in the playroom, watching TV, going with mommy to Stop & Shop, a video of every dance class... it goes on and on. I know every single, painstaking detail, of her life. NOBODY cares that your kids ate blueberry waffles for breakfast and then watched Paw Patrol.

Bad grammar and poor writing skills.
Almost all of the slang / popular hashtags, expressions and sayings on social media. I'm a bit of hypocrite there because I've used a few , but I try to control it.

When people are pregnant and constantly refer to the baby by the name they chose for months before the baby arrives. Idk why, since there's no reason not to do that but for some reason it really irks me.
Yes!! I had a friend once sign x-mas cards from the baby (using the baby's name) and she wasn't due til February. 10 years later and it still irks me.

Going "Live" on Facebook.
Unless you are reporting the news there is never a reason to broadcast anything live. I don't need to see your shittyy cellphone video of the concert you are at live.

In this same vein, I absolutely abhor it when couples say "WE are pregnant." No no no. WE are not pregnant. SHE is pregnant. HE is just there... an annoying presence, staying in shape and not having his privates probed monthly.
Also, another stupid thing that irks me...when men have opinions on BFing. Um...I'm sorry? STFU. It's bad enough women judge each other and have the background knowledge to do so...a man has no business commenting on BFing.
And combining the two...my cousin's DH told me that "we are going to EBF the baby". Oh? Are WE? Fascinating. Please send me a photo of that. Thank you.

Mom law says your allowed the throats punch the guy that says "we are ebf the baby". No way I'd be able to keep a straight face if someone said that to me

Re: Stupid little things that piss you off
People who act like they have OCD because they like things to be very neat. If they only knew how crippling a disorder like that could be, they wouldn't go around acting like it's a cool thing to have.
People who call every headache a migraine. Same as above.
Adults who lack coping skills.
Children who whine all the time. I guess they turn into those adults without coping abilities.
People who post show spoilers on Facebook. Shut up.
People who immediately post every celebrity death on Facebook. I've deleted those grim reaper town criers. They are often the same people who post show spoilers. Again, shut up.
People who move out of the NYC area and go on and on and onnnnnn about how $200K can get you a huge-ass house in rootin' tootin' cowboy country. Yes, it can. But you're also stuck in East Bumblefck and if you were 100% happy there, you wouldn't make monthly posts about it.

Stupid little things that piss you off
When there are plenty of seats open on the train and someone has to sit right down next to me. There can literally be rows of seats available...and they sit...with me.

I can't stand "feels/all the feels" or whatever the phrase is. Now there is a song with that in it. Horrible.
Plenty of studies by security experts have shown that a lot of this "super-security" measures don't actually add any extra security, and potentially make things less secure. 8 character passwords are more than enough, and anything more than 8 characters is superfluous and unnecessary.
And putting unnecessary restrictions on passwords just encourages people to write them down somewhere, defeating the purpose of security....
I have a user account and an admin account on a lot of systems, so I wind up having twice as many passwords as most people, and the password rules are often different for user accounts and administrator accounts...

Stupid little things that piss you off
A new person just started in my office and there's some sort of sickly sweet flowery smell coming from her office. It's quite obnoxious and I just noticed that now I can smell it a hallway away (before it was just right near her office door). I'm really sensitive to smells and it's slightly nauseating.

I have a similar pet peeve with bathrooms. It's an unwritten "rule"... whenever possible, leave an empty urinal or stall between other people! Obviously, if it's full, you have no choice, but if there's only two of us in the bathroom, and 7 stalls... Don't pick the one next to me!

Omg! I was thinking of this, but didn't want to offend anyone if they do it. I can't stand it when I hear "we" are pregnant! You said it perfectly! I never knew this irked anyone but me lol. I thought I was weird!

This and this.
I suffer from migraines and I lose partial vision , get numbness, have trouble forming words, and throw up non stop. It's life interupting.
It's not a bad headache, it's a neurological event.

lazy people on LI who cant just walk the shopping cart back to the store OR to collection area. Instead they prefer to leave in front/back of cars, in empty parking spots leaving no place to park. LAZY people stop this!
PS I see as the case in the plainview, Jericho, Syosset area to be the worst

Stupid little things that piss you off
I hate when I go for a Pedicure to relax and either a) all the chairs are empty except for one other person and they sit me right next to them. So awkward. b) the annoying person talking on their cell phone really loud. I literally find myself sighing loudly and just staring at them like stfu!!
