The people with high "personal" ambition that ruin this world for the rest of us. I am sure at least one of them was sitting at the table on that first thanksgiving thinking about how to exploit the Native Americans.
Exceptionalism.
The kind that says “I’m special, but you aren’t”
The kind that lets billionaires exist and fuck with national politics and laws. The kind that lets rich people or corporations off of crimes with little or no punishment. The kind that lets a religious person use their religion to be shitty in any way, as a shield or a cudgel. The kind that lets someone festoon their pickup with LED lights and a squat so you’re blinded at night when they’re coming at you or tailgating you.
All of them think they’re special and the rules don’t apply, they don’t care how it affects those around them - or others are to be exploited.

Mine is drivers who act like there aren't other people on the road. IE turning into your lane doing greatly reduced speed right in front of you, Doing well below speed limits in faster lanes and refusing to get over, etc.
my city is kind of known for bad drivers. 7 times out of 10 when you're joining the highway, the idiot in front of you is not accelerating and you have to join the 100km/h road doing 50. almost died today because of one of these idiots, they didn't look and there was someone coming from behind and we all had to slam the brakes. oh and it's snowy and icy here, and today it rained.

Every single person now thinks they're smarter than everyone else. No matter what their political leanings are, they're all smarter than everyone else. Smarter than:
- Doctors
- Scientists
- Engineers
- Economists
It's absolutely ridiculous and it started sometime around the 90s around when Ross Perot first ran for president and it just got worse with social media.
That's the real problem right now. Everyone thinks they know more than people who spent decades studying and becoming experts in their field.
To be fair, there are a lot of bullshit economists and Doctors.

MAGA and Assfuck Trump..
Ads. I am so fucking sick of ads. I have ad blockers on many things and my next network project will be adding a pihole to my network for network ad block. Sick of it.
My husband has set up a pihole and it’s the best ever. It used to run off an actual raspberry pi but now we have a home server and he got it set up on there. Literally yesterday he also added Tailscale to our computers and phones and it seriously rocks my socks. I don’t even exactly know what it does but suddenly I’m not getting any ads while at my in-laws house on their WiFi so, score! I am not tech savvy enough to know about these things, much less set them up myself, but I am super thankful that my husband aggressively hates ads and I get to benefit from his crusade against them.

Yes! Let the hate flow through you!
Feel the true power of the dark side!
Depression
What the fuck
What the actual fuck
What the actual fucking fuck is this stupid ass bullshit
It's outrageous! It's unfair!
So you're telling me, I could just live a normal life, but a part of my brain is getting rebellious and won't cooperate, spreading negativity propaganda to the rest of my brain?
What. The. Fuck?!?

I hate how a lot of men make the rest of us look bad. Can we just chill out for a bit? Like, can guys stop beating on their wives, molesting children, raping, and murdering? Please? Idk what to do besides just be chill myself and try to encourage others to be the same. Let's just read some books with some piano in the background.
It's an absolute shit show.
Women have it bad. Honestly I don't know how how you all have the patience to try to figure out which guy isn't a psycho.
As a cis het man, I know that alone is enough to make some women say "pass".
I feel like if men learned more about consent and empathy and stopped listening to assholes like Andrew Tate or Joe Rogan, we'd be in a much better state.
Had my first creep encounter at night outside after transitioning. Nooot fun lol

Turkey is fucking DRY and flavorless.
Only if it's not cooked properly. Anyone that feels this way has an open invitation to enjoy brined, compound butter seasoned, spatchcocked goodness at my place. Treat a turkey with love, and it's delicious!
While it is incredibly difficult to keep the breast meat properly hydrated (even I find the best turkeys seem dry with their white meat), another commenter is absolutely correct - a properly done turkey will have absolutely succulent and tasty brown meat. To the point where adding any garnish or gravy is almost an insult.
A thermometer and using foil to protect the breast during cooking is really helpful! I'm a dark meat fan, generally, but some mindful cooking can produce juicy and tender white meat.
You've been eating incorrectly cooked turkey.

It'd be quicker for me to list what I don't hate these days, but I guess the main stuff that makes me tilt is:
Capitalism, billionaires, billionaires' bootlickers, ~~conservatives~~ fascists, state surveillance, bloated anti-user and anti-freedom (i.e. modern) software, anti-intellectualism, being in a "post-truth" era, AI slopaganda, and the relatively general apathy to all of that and lack of solidarity amongst us working people (at least where I live).

Daylight Saving time, Donald Trump & his supporters, the US healthcare "system", mosquitos, Christmas music, babies on airplanes, hangnails, bigotry and intolerance of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

Selfishness. It's the root cause of many things that plague the world: people putting themselves/their immediate circle before others, lack of empathy, greed, xenophobia, homophobia, misogyny, racism, fascism, or pricks listening to stuff through their phone's speaker in public.
Stupid People. Not people who are naive, they can be educated. But actual stupid people. They will kill us all.
Nazis
That new wicked movie. It’s so bad.
Willful ignorance.
Unjust justice systems designed to rob citizens.
An example: NYC cops will ticket you for not displaying a parking receipt on your dash even though you paid through their fucking ParkNYC app.
When you dispute the ticket they don’t give a fuck and just say “guilty” then charge you anyways.

I hate when people are needlessly negative.
Hey, fuck you.
