    People who think they’re an island. I don’t know how to describe it. People who operate like little effort should be expended on the fact that other humans exist around them and they’re part of society along with some responsibility for that society. Doesn’t matter if it’s stopping in the middle of a busy sidewalk in a group and blocking it, driving the speed limit in the passing lane, or utterly destroying the use of spelling, grammar, and punctuation in an online post forcing the reader to translate it into something meaningful. People unwilling to return the courtesies and efforts those around them offer by default.

    Cars in cities.

    You don’t realize how insane they are until you spend time somewhere without them.

      I don’t need to. I can feel the sweet death threat every time I cross the road on the zebra lines without traffic lights.

      It’s true. I’ve been getting back into religion just to pray that God makes humanity extinct.

      I have a nearly fully blocked nose, always have. As such I can’t really breathe through my nose at all (also my sense of smell is nearly nonexistent). I still eat with my mouth closed. It does take me a while longer though, since I basically need to stop eating in order to breathe. But I’d rather do that than the alternative, because I agree with you, chewing with your mouth open is disgusting and disrespectful.

    Chocolate! I have no idea why but if I eat more than a small bar of chocolate in a short time span I get this tingling sensation in my mouth, forehead and temples. It’s not painful or anything just very weird and I’ve had it all my life. I’ve been tested for an allergy to chocolate and it came back negative!

    Coffee :(

    The “virus wombo combo” of mono and COVID fucked a lot of things up permanently, but most of them have rebounded to an acceptable state. Whenever I drink coffee it fucks me up, even decaf coffee. Makes me feel tired as hell, stressed, overstimulated. It also seems to last for almost a full day. Drink coffee in the morning, and I have a big chance of sleeping badly.

    Not that it’s guaranteed to hold me back…

    Every now and then the sane part of my brain forgets to pay attention and my coffee craving gets the better of me.

        Not nearly as bad, if at all. I drink a lot of tea on work days (probably over a liter) and have never had issues with that. I don’t regularly drink energy drink or cola etc, but he times that I had them also didn’t have the same effect.

        While caffeine also doesn’t necessarily make my body happy, I do think that there’s something else that upsets my body when drinking coffee. Maybe something to do with dehydration or histamine intolerance. Idk.

        Edit: hmmm but apparently black tea and green tea are also high in histamine and I drink a lot of that. It remains a mystery

      Misusing them in what weigh? Like using an uncorrect word? Or using a word that has a different consternation than the one they meant to use?
