Having to make a social media post about everything. Just enjoy what we’re doing together. Not everyone needs to know we met up for lunch today. -u/M0ck_duck -
7.
Lack of spatial awareness, especially in stores while shopping. Constantly knocking into shelves and not caring, being oblivious to people walking around you, etc. Pay some attention to your surroundings! -u/leemurray98 -
8.
People acting like experts because they watched some video online. -u/toKenblaKKman -
9.

Looking at your phone instead of the person with you. -u/JohnGaltsWife -

People so geeked up on social media, they don't even ask you if you want to be in their latest upload photos. Just snap and go. Highly annoying. -u/LurkingAintEazy -

Why is it so acceptable for job adds not to list salaries/wages. -u/A-Tie -

16.
If someone is in a crisis, you are recording it. I think that's so disgusting, imagine being at your lowest or finally snapping and it just happens to be in public, and you look over and someone has their phone pointed at you. -u/worthlesswreck -
17.
Watching people in traffic with their eyes on a phone and texting making other drivers wait. -u/UseforNoName71 -

21.
People taking their dogs inside anywhere and everywhere and, businesses just apathetic about it. -u/ALTITUDE10K -

Vaping, all the f**king time. Sure, it's better for others around you but jeeezuz people treat them like oxygen inhalers and just do it anywhere, where they usually wouldn't smoke. -u/zerosuneuphoria -
23.
People using the word "woke" incorrectly just to describe anything they don't like. -u/Shot-Inevitable7483 -
