Coming out of left field, I'll have to go with the number 22. Absolutely hate that number to death. Used to show up all the time when I was growing up, so I've learned to be a 22 hater. I'll go to war with that number and nuke it to death before admitting it's a good number.

Plug in air fresheners.

If I rent an Airbnb which has them I will hunt every single one down and it's going straight out the window.

Perfume and cologne. Makes me wheeze. Also long dirty fingernails, people who work with soil or grease or something excused from that.

The color brown, especially in clothing. I can't quite put my finger on why that is.

Wood is mostly okay, though.

[–] TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's overdone especially decor and furniture. Same with beige, navy blue, black, or other neutral business casual "adult" colors.

You'll love Anthracite Grey then.

Biweekly and bimonthly each also meaning their respective reciprocals.

(Every two periods, or twice a period.)

If a technical term such as a frequency specifier has multiple incompatible meanings then it has no value and needs to stop being used entirely. Or one of the meanings chosen as correct and the others rejected forcefully (good luck with that)

Schizophrenic people are very likely to do this. I work in mental health and this was mentioned in our training. At my location maybe 1/3-1/2 of folks wore one or more puffy jackets all summer long.

[–] USSEthernet@startrek.website 2 points 2 days ago

Had a lot of teens walking around with the puffy jackets or hoodies on and ski masks over this past summer. Don't think we have that many schizophrenic people around here.

Dogs. I don't want to hear about yours and if I'm in public keep your dog away from me.

Got misophonia, the sound of dog licking triggers me

licks his dog, loudly

Every article lately using the word "quietly" in the headline to drive clicks, to trick the user into thinking they're getting in on some controversial secret. It's the new "slammed".

the way yoga instructors speak, for some reason. I don't hate Yoga itself, just that fake calm voice makes me pretty mad. I could relax much better if the instructor just shouted like a drill sergeant all the time

I used to work in an email heavy industry, so people who don’t use email or more specifically what I call “threading” right.

Changing the topic (so that the discussion no longer relates to the subject line), replying to add someone in without reattaching the relevant attached files, not using redirect email functionality, including screenshots that either lack relevant information due to poor cropping or forces the recipient into retyping its contents by hand all make email super annoying to deal with. And what’s with being expected to confirm you received each and every email? Ever heard of read receipts?

Also, people who don’t read error messages. As a web developer (or more broadly “computer person”) I cannot count how many times someone has sent me a picture of an error asking me what to do. 90% of the time the error itself tells you exactly what to do. Why do I need to read it for you?

The smell of coffee. I don't know what's wrong with me (or alternatively the vast majority of people) but it smells as disgusting to me as a steaming pile of dog poop. I learned to ignore it to some extend but I still hate it in all its variations: The powder, freshly roasted beans, freshly brewed coffee, cold coffee, coffee breath, ...

I personally hate it when people get weird about the word 'hate' and try to use the word 'despise' instead.

New year's eve. I'm generally not a depressed person but new year's eve just reminds me of the unstoppable passage of time and how I have one fewer year left here and haven't achieved a fraction of what I want to. Just really depressing stuff, generally. Being at a party with cheerful friends and alcohol helps a bit.

Same with birthdays a bit, but not as bad.
