Things That Irk Me

If I've watched all the "new episodes" that means there are no longer any new episodes. So, I dunno, maybe stop taunting me with your "New Episodes" banner until there are new ones again?

Actually no. Unlike you I was raised to be a decent human being and therefore have always done my best to recycle. . .

Also, why is it typically asked in a condescending tone? Like recycling isn't a "cool" thing to do.

Is being lazy and damaging the environment now considered the "cool" thing to do? Is ruining the planet for wildlife and your own future descendants "cool"?

This applies to a few things like elevators, buses, trains, subways and the like.

Why do a lot of people wait right in the way of the doors instead of out of the way just a little off to the side? You know that there's a likely chance people will have to vacate before you can even enter, which means your attempt at being first has now put you right in the way. Which is made worse by people who see you and don't fucking move.

I shouldn't have to say excuse me just so I can get off the elevator nor should I get nasty looks as if I'm the one who's in the way. They should understand that there are people who need to exit first and step out of the way before trying to immediately enter.

Let me tell ya a little story,

When I'm at work I have to take a cart with me in the elevator, this means there's generally no room for anyone else so when I see others waiting for the elevator on the same level as me I'll politely let them go first and wait for it to return-even though I have to get my work done within a specific time frame. One time I was running behind because the elevator was taking so long and when it finally reached my level a large group of people exited (all perfectly capable of taking the stairs btw; the elevator is the only one in the building and is mainly meant for the handicapped and people with strollers/carts) Well one of them felt the need to tell me that "You should probably wait-there's a man in a wheelchair waiting at the doors on the 1st floor."

Soo they wanted me to let the elevator go up empty (to the floor I needed to get off on I might add) so he could get on and bring it back down, just for me to return to the same floor? How pointless and wasteful (of time and resources) is that? Now, I understand they probably had no clue what floor I get off on and if I was going to a higher floor then yes technically it would be polite to wait, but only because I'm "staff" and therefore considered less important. If I was a mother with a stroller or another person in a wheelchair they probably wouldn't have said anything.

Furthermore- How did they know he was waiting? Clearly because the elevator stopped on his floor while all these perfectly capable people were in it. They saw him and proceeded to take it down just one more floor instead of exiting to allow him in and walking to the ESCALATORS that are so close they're literally within eyesight of the elevator doors.

When you're at home and you're not going to finish the coffee you've made- do you normally go to your garbage and dump it out? Because when you throw away your unfinished coffee cup (which is actually recycling btw, only the lid is garbage) this is essentially what you're doing. And if you're the type to do this, I guarantee the cleaner for your building can't fucking stand it. Pour that shit out in a sink then dispose of it accordingly.

I can understand a small amount being left behind, you can't expect the pump to get everything, but there was at least an inch left in the bottle when I went to toss it. Couldn't believe the pump didn't reach further down into the bottle. So much would've been wasted and St. Ives actually makes great lotions.

Why the hell aren't more of these designed like the Maxwell House K-cups? They've made it 10x easier to properly recycle the plastic portion and trash(or compost) the coffee; without it being a hassle or making a mess.

I hate this.

Like, I reeeaally fuckin' hate it.

This. . this method people have begun to use as a way to reach-or trigger-one's sense of empathy and compassion. . .
