I hate

Bananas in pyjamas.

You can't clean that mess off. They have to go in the wash.

Euph?

People who ride slowly on the outer 3rd of the road indefinitely, seemingly for no reason (ie no parked cars/bus to overtake etc ahead).

Meaning you have to choose between
1) Dick move undertake
2) Riding slowly behind them until they eventually move in/turn off
3) Overtaking into oncoming traffic

Also: Finding Nemo.

They have fixed the cookies, finally!

After Life by Ricky Gervais. If you don't actively hate this then you have the emotional maturity of a toddler and genuinely need to have a long hard word with yourself.

'EDC' / 'Every Day Carry'

It's having stuff in your pockets. It doesn't need to be a thing. Why does everything have to be a thing now?

And that's not even getting in to where it intersects with carrying firearms...

There’s a thread for that.

i think for some people these are important things. what multi tool do you use/carry etc, does it cover most of the small tasks you need to do? i live in the middle of some woods, so a small axe is also a really useful tool and was delighted when i was given a gransfors brux hatchet and belt loop for christmas.

just because something isn't relevant to you it doesn't mean its unimportant to someone else. most normal people could not give a flying fuck about handlebars, bar tape, rim profiles etc, but are probably not getting worked up and hating such things.

i find it fascinating there are so many niche areas of interest, all these little realms of nerdery

You're in the 'I hate' thread, squire :-)

I totally get the desire to have useful items of equipment on ones person in relevant situations. If I'm going to be out and about on my bike ('ride' or otherwise), I have certain things that I make sure are in my bag/jersey - tool pouch, lock keys etc. If I'm camping, I actually have a tool roll with stuff like a folding chefs knife, an Opinel, bottle opener etc.
I'm semi-fetishistic about all these little objects and also about the manner in which I carry them. I just can't bring myself to give the whole experience a name, when its just carrying stuff around to greater or lesser degrees of organisation. I'm not sure I could bring myself to arrange the contents of my pockets artfully on a log and take a photo with my Zeiss, either.

i am sure i probably feature in some people's "i hate" lists

Zeiss

It's an effective bludgeoning weapon, which is why it makes my EDC list.

Utilikilts don't accessorise themselves.

Why does everything have to be a thing now?

So it can be monitised.

people with poor lift etiquette, specifically scumbos that hold the door open with the express purpose of continuing a conversation with someone not in the lift.

daggers!

"EDC".

I just can't bring myself to give the whole experience a name

Concur, carrying things isn't the problem. Even if you do it every day. I mean I am a Mission Workshop client too.

Obsessing about it, and taking photos of it isn't the problem either, as long as it's behind closed doors.

I also accept America is a different place, where they do personal weapon fetishism, and tactical pens come from that culture.

And what red-blooded man doesn't enjoy the heft --and girth -- of a well-rounded torch?

It's the preciousness of using the abbreviation, and that the "C" is for "carry", not "carrying [things]".

It reminds me of a couple of years ago when bullet journalling was a "thing". What's a bullet journal? A fucking to-do list. Literally that's what it is, but it was all over YouTube as some supposed "life hack". And the worst part was every no-mark pissflap then decided they had to tell everyone what pen and notebook and fucking ruler they used to do their bullet journalling and how important it was.

They'll look back at this kind of thing as a symptom of a deeply rotten society.

The phrase "life hack". It comes from the geek idea that human social interactions are as ordered and predictable as computer processes. Also, as @fizzy.bleach observes, they're mostly really fucking obvious or really fucking stupid.

If Rapid Logging is language the BuJo is written in, Bullets are the syntax.

'BuJo'

Tasks can have one of five states

This example is known as the Daily Log. It's the workhorse of the Bullet Journal, and one of the four main Collections.

BuJo is a modular framework. Each module, or Collection, serves to
organize related information. You can mix and match, customize, or
even create Collections to best suit your needs. Let’s take a look at
the four core Collections: The Index, Future Log, Monthly Log, and
the Daily Log.

good grief, they want me to buy a manual too!

bullet journaling

Reminds me of "shooting" for taking photos of your shit brunch.

• "I shoot with a Leica".
  
  

Fuck off and die.

Indeed. I make notes on random bits of paper using whatever pen/pencil/crayon is to hand.

If they're really important I'll take a photo of them on my phone as a backup. If I can't find a pen/pencil/crayon I'll use the notes app on my phone (but this is a last resort).

The idea of having to carry around a specific favourite pen (all that "I've *always* preferred the Stabilo Boss 1.2mm floating ball unicorn blood gel pens. Once you've tried one you'll never go back to a normal biro - how terribly ghastly!" can get in the sea) and little notebook (Moleskin usually, poor moles) is my personal idea of hell.

Keys, wallet, phone, lint.

To be specific to this thread. I hate having to rely on too many things. Fewer = better.

It's "Moleskine" you insensitive clod.

The phrase "life hack".

There was one of these labelled as such the other day retweeted by a few people I follow about how you can make "4% of 75" easier by swapping the numbers and doing "75% of 4". Much amaze. So mental maths.

It's just mathematical commutativity you cretins, and that's a trivial fucking example. How much easier is 47% of 23 than 23% of 47 because of this life hack? None. Just learn to do maths properly.

Why is shooting a gun any more "shooting" than shooting a camera?
The gun reference is well embedded in photography. Photo shoot, canon cameras, trigger etc
You point it at a target and press a button, a lot like shooting IMO
