There are people who have a genuine problem breathing fully through their nose though.
Take smaller bites.
I admire your commitment to this. I’m onboard. Fuck em, take smaller bites.
Leaving things they decided they don't want just wherever in a store. It's annoying as a customer, because now I have to dig through their mess to get the product I actually wanted, and even moreso as an employee.
At least put it back in the right department. The underpaid employees who have been there since before the store opened for the day really don't want to have to play the game of "How long has this ground beef been sitting in a produce basket, and how much product did we just lose?"
I remember a story of a guy talking about how the store reeked and smelled terrible. After doing tons of searching at the epicenter of the smell, turns out some guy hid a 5 pound beef brisket on the bottom shelf, hidden behind a bunch of breakfast cereal.
"Passive income" if you describe yourself as having a passive income, I want nothing to do with you.
Passive income is a myth - all income requires labor... if you're getting income without putting in labor then you're stealing someone else's income.
People being shitty to customer service workers and utility, and people not being courteous to them.
Heck, I sometimes judge people for not thanking service workers and utility. For example: if a janitor lets you pass a hallway they've been busy cleaning, I'd silently judge you if you don't thank the janitor for letting you pass. Another example is in a fast food setting: if the person on the counter gives you your order, I'd silently judge you if you don't say "thank you".
Low curiousity/worldliness. Honestly makes me think someone is either dull or maybe depressed
Nothing depresses me more then leaving my basement and traveling far across the globe, and seeing the same people doing the same shit just like at home.
Desperate people trying to afford necessities, the exploiters lording over them, the corporations running things.
I was young and dumb when I went, but I will never again make the mistake of searching for something that just isn't there.
I'd rather stay in my basement and pretend there is a better place in the world. But you can only play pretend for so long.
Bonus: every time i struggle to make it, I get to think about the thousands wasted on that trip. I used to be a dumb ass. I still am, but I used to too.

How much time it takes for somebody in front of me in line to complete whatever the line is about.
Not using their turn signals if the only other traffic is pedestrians.
So many times I’ve been crossing an intersection to the opposite corner where I could cross either street first, so I pick the street that won't block the car crossing the other way. They’re not signalling so I figure they’re going straight, and cross the other way so they won’t have to wait for me—but seemingly every time it turns out the car was really turning after all. So they’re stuck because they couldn’t conceive of pedestrians as traffic they need to communicate with.
I don’t understand how people don’t indicate in general. It’s just so automatic for me, I’d need to make a conscious effort not to.
Sometimes I accidentally indicate because I’m going around a sharp bend that my brain registers as a corner 😂
Nosing (instead of reversing) into a parking spot. You always pick the conditions of your arrival, but not always your departure. Also, reversing into traffic is ridiculous and illegal in some places. Parking nose-first is dangerous and lazy.
EDIT: Love how you're all justifying your bad driving habits. Camera? Still can't scan for incoming traffic. Bad weather only on occasion? It's more than bad weather that can make reversing out of a door dangerous.
... and I HATE angle parking.
We get inclement weather about once every 6 years. I'll choose to live dangerously.
