Things that irritate you - Part 4

whos the top karen posters in this thread?
According to ChatGPT:

🏆 My pick: Creag


He is the strongest overall Karen candidate in the thread.


The giveaway isn't that he complains a lot — that's literally the thread's purpose. It's the type of things he gets irritated about and the seriousness with which he approaches them.


For example, very early on he objects to fireworks specifically because they're apparently illegal under municipal bylaws and because of proximity to “protected locations.”


Then there's the increasingly Karen-esque pattern:


  • concern about other people's behaviour affecting his environment;
  • municipal/bylaw awareness;
  • irritation with neighbours/complex behaviour;
  • strong opinions about what other road users should and shouldn't be doing;
  • and, later, the delivery-motorcycle rant, where he describes the riders as having “zero skills or cognitive ability” and predicts Darwin Awards for them.

And here's the clincher: in another current thread, when someone tells Creag “you sound like a Karen,” his response is essentially to explain why the behaviour in question is actually despicable and why his irritation is justified.


That's almost meta-Karen territory.

[x] doubt we need list of posters that posted here, + post counts
 

Yeah and update the season. We still sitting in 17/18.
 
Are you sure you're qualified to operate pills?

I bought some new CR2023 or whatever flat round batteries the other day. To protect against children eating them they now come inside an inner layer of plastic that's pretty much unbreakable.

Maybe there's a secret to it, but it took me like 10 minutes to get the stupid thing out.

A paring knife or a pair of scissors would have worked very well, you would have had the battery out in less than a minute.

And it’s a CR2032 battery. The naming convention comes from the battery having a 20mm diameter and a 3.2 mm thickness. That’s why you can use a CR2016 or CR2025 battery should you really need to use whatever device you’re inserting the battery into and you can’t find a CR2032 battery. Just put a type of spacer (like a folded small piece of paper) in to keep the battery in place.
 
R800 call out fee for messing around for 2 hours in the roof. Madness. Next company wrote the geyser off in a few minutes.
Great now insurance wants me to pay another R870 because the geyser was replaced after hours (they never said there's an extra charge for this). Never a dull moment lol.
