Things that shouldn't piss you off, but do. - Page 668 - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

Today's Quora digest:

- I want to become rich. What should I do?
- How can young adults plan to be a millionaire?
- What's a strategy for me to realistically have a $10 million net worth by 40?
- What are the best ways to make money?
- What's it like when you first arrive to Wall Street, in hopes of making a ton of money?

Just **** off already.

I tried to unsubscribe a few days ago but I think I failed.

I had a nightmare about her when I was a kid (at least one with the Swedish Chef too) but she doesn't piss me off.

Successfully now unsubscribed from most of their stuff. Really want to just kill my account tbh.

I haven't been subscribed that long but I don't remember it being as bad as this a few months ago. It's turning into Yahoo Answers FFS.

Nice.

But it's because it's the default cooking oil by people who know a little bit about food but not enough.

When I hear that line

"I love you but I'm not in love with you?"

What the hell does that even mean?

"I want to **** other people, but don't want to **** you any more. We can still talk on the phone, though."

This should do much more than piss you off. This should make you positively ****ing livid with rage.

People that use the word actually often and in the wrong context. Example: I actually think that this is a good idea. No! Drop the actually and the sentence is fine moron!

You don't know the difference between 'love' and 'in love'?

It means "I feel bad that you feel bad that I don't want to screw you anymore."

It not only means "I don't love you" it means "I don't like you" and possibly "I hate you."

Doesn't the use of actually in that sentence add emphasis?

Microbet seems bitter. There's people that I love that I'm not I'm love with. Even an ex, though she tested that patience.

Of course there are people I love that I'm not in love with, but I sure as hell have never said that to them.

You love your parents, but you're not in love with them.

Actually, you could eliminate the first portion altogether. 'This is a good idea'

Don't actually know why you're striving for brevity tho, most conversations would actually annoy you if so.

People that post comments below online articles such as "We don't care" (who the **** is "we" exactly), "is there really nothing more important to write about", "and how much did "we" pay for that study", etc.

Most of the time 30sec after the article was posted of course, no chance the ****** read it before commenting.

Don't mention it and shut the **** up already if you "don't care". JFC.

God I miss the mid/late 90s internet

The rote follow up actually annoys me more

'If you didn't care why did you click on the article?'

Oooo you got 'em good, you've given them a lot to think about and now they'll change their stripes. Just ignore them ffs.

Never heard the term. You from Jersey?

In Cali, Type C we have occasionally, but mostly that's for freeways and involves bridges.

I assume you're talking about Type A, which is really weird and I don't think I've ever seen other than it also looking like a freeway exit which would again involve a bridge.

Looks really stupid. Left turn lane with left turn signal seems a lot better.

B seems kinda cool when it's hard to make a U-turn, but not really worth the trouble of building it.
