Telling any support staff individual

"It just says error."

Punishment compounded based upon the degree of detailed information you simply decided to not bother reading before seeking assistance.

Lol

No, it should be punishable to build a system that just says "error" when it fails.

A lot of very important things have already been suggested and I agree with most. I won't just re-state what others have said, instead I'll suggest a pet peeve of mine.

People who say "I love that for you". It's like nails on a chalkboard to me, it's always said in such a condescending and disingenuous way by every person I've ever heard say it, I just can't stand hearing it now.

Alcohol and gambling. The death and suffering these cause is unfathomable. Just within my small social sphere I've encountered numerous people that have had their entire families ripped apart or destroyed by these, particularly alcohol.

Park shade designers. All of them. Replace them with two guys from anywhere that have had a sunburn and know how to install a roof.
