Shit that annoys you

[rideit]

Has anyone else noticed how everything is "super" these days? Everyone is "super excited" to do whatever...

that would be super-annoying

I find it super-irritating, for sure.

Social Influencers. What a crock of shit.... a self-important twat asking for free services...]

You're upset because no one's approached you yet with a similarly incredible proposal to help further your business.

Sadly it's not just social media influencers that are so obnoxious about it. When I had my Big Sky business, people come out of the freaking woodwork asking us for free goods and services, promising good exposure or future jobs out of the exchange. All of them were 100% full of shit. Tough life lessons to learn after getting hosed repeatedly. Lol. I can seriously relate to that poor hotel owner from KQ's link because just like him, after too long of trying to get taken advantage of, I got sick of it and finally started putting my foot down and denying people their requests for free shit, and just like him, they'd get super butt hurt about it. Got some minor temper tantrums when I'd have to explain that I was literally in the process of going under and thus could not accommodate their asinine requests. These rich assholes would be like "But what am I gonna do?! I have XYZ event this week!" I was like "Well, you can pay us like you would have to anyone else, or you're free to use any of my competitors. Here are their numbers. Now kindly GFY." The nerve of some people. Always trying to take advantage of the struggling young entrepreneurs. Sheesh...

But yeah, social influencers are a bunch of narcissistic, self-entitled twats that just can't go away soon enough. A true scourge on society if you ask me.

Hip flask - bourbon and ham go well together.

Just dodged a 5 day trial by the skin of my teeth.

I figure anyone is within their rights to asks anyone else for free shit, and the person being asked for the free shit is equally within their rights to tell them to fuck off.

Can I have a powder skirt?

Fuck off.

Went in to our crawl space to investigate a leak by our external hose bib, that is annoying. Got covered with cobwebs and dirt, annoying. Went outside to try to wipe all the cobweb crap off my pants, and my wedding ring flew off into the snow. Fuck.

[The AD]

Fuck off.

See how easy it is?

1n 1986 my then-girlfriend now-wife bought a new SAAB 900. We planned to take it on a long roadtrip around the country. I contacted SAAB and basically asked them to pay for it, telling them all about how it would be a great ad campaign, "SAAB Across America" would be the theme. Basically we'd drive around and go cool places and take pictures of ourselves and they'd pay for stuff was how it was supposed to work.

I was a proto-influencer, almost. I wish I still had the letter back from SAAB, it was classic. Very nice, very polite, quite sarcastic and very very firm is how I would describe it.

[dunfree]

influencers are just the visible tip of the hustle culture iceberg.

edit: if saab were still around in the US they'd probably pay you $10 a post for #vanlife and you'd be "living the dream"

"Dear iceman,
Kindly fuck off.
Sincerely,
