Minor vent for me: Why do people stick their tongue out in photos and think it is funny? I think it looks stupid and disgusting. There is nothing amusing or attractive about looking at someone's tongue and the goofy expression on their face.
Agree! I see it on dating sites all the time. That and women with just weird expressions. Who thinks that's cute???
Adding to blocked aisles... When the employees are stocking shelves at 7am, blocking almost every aisle with pallets and boxes. Why can't the stores have workers do this while they're closed instead of making it almost impossible for customers to do their shopping?
They do have them do it while the store's closed. Typically the merchandisers work all night long restocking and resetting shelves. Sometimes it bleeds over into open hours.
There are also aisles that are restocked by product reps instead of store employees. Those people come in when the store is open.
When people block the supermarket aisle with their carts and are oblivious to others who are trying to get by.
I encounter this often. Even worse is when two friends run into each other and they all decide to stop in the aisles of the store for a chat To add to this affront our local Kroger stores now have pick-up. Store employees go through the store with giant oversized carts picking up the groceries and blocking aisles without even trying.

RIGHT.
I have a very good friend who has the CUTEST daughter who is now a young adult in college. I have known them since the daughter was a little bitty girl. Anyway, she's truly a beautiful young woman - but in EVERY SINGLE PICTURE of her on social media, she's doing the duck lip thing. WHAT ON EARTH? I honestly do not get it. STOP IT.
Neighbor with a loud engine/muffler? who starts his car like 10 minutes before actually leaving. I can feel the vibrations in my body the entire time and of course hear the noise.
When I'm going somewhere, I get in my car and leave right then. There's no reason at all to keep a car running for 10 minutes, except maybe on the coldest winter day to warm it up, which is not the case now.
I've noticed this habit with other people with loud cars, trucks and motorcycles. It's mind boggling to me.

Just rest your mind, knowing that years from now, her kids and grandkids will be howling with laughter looking at those pics.
Maybe a not so minor vent; people that ask questions on social media that can be answered faster, and probably more accurately, via a quick search. I belong to a local FB group that focuses on stuff happening in our city/county. People constantly ask questions like, "Anyone know the weather for next weekend? and "What time does xyz open?" I have to refrain from repeatedly responding with "Google is your friend."
I have to admit, this one gets to me too. There is this community-wide software called NextDoor that offers a way for community members to communicate things of interest about the immediate neighborhood.
I get really tired of reading things like, “Anyone know a good roofer?”
One of the nice things about that forum is that it has an entire section devoted to rating local retailers, service providers, etc. Just search the word roofer and it comes right up with neighborhood rankings by number of positive referrals. I don’t know if it’s laziness, ignorance or what but it is irritating.

Welcome to Florida during season. I used to be nice and say excuse me. Now it’s, “ Hey Bernice, can ya get the hell outta the way?!?!” Yeah, I know not nice but you get fed up dealing with this every time you go to the store and it doesn’t matter what time of day you go.
