Other than oversharing, I see a trend of people being who they wish they were in real life.  Fantasizing is fine, but not when it comes to the point of being a down right fraud.  I lost a friend of 12 years behind his social media shenanigans.  I lost so much respect for him and it changed my perception of him drastically smh.

I took an Uncommon Woman challenge a few years ago and it wasn't until then that I realized how ridiculous it looks to always have your head in your cell phone. 

It annoys me the way people use cell phones as though their lives depend on it...in every situation...at all times of the day...often when they are with friends or family and should be interacting with them...walking down the street and crossing it with hardly a glance for safety at times.  I find it really annoying and irritating!

Other than looking too absorbed into technology, having your head in your cell phone all the time distracts you from enjoying real life.

I can't STAND when people post pics of their food lol.  It's different if you're a photographer or food critic, but when one does it for attention it looks so desperate to me.

Yeah over sharing on social media. People taking  pics of their d9nut or sandwichave. I could give a flying  *bleep*.

People getting offended over everything when everyone doesn't agree with them.

People using their phones while driving. I don't give a crap how important you think you are. When you're driving a 4000+ lb vehicle, you keep your damn eyes on the road. It's infuriating.

For me it's social media.  People over share too much.  Not everything needs to be posted online for the world to see.

It doesn't "annoy" me.  I do not have to participate.  There are a lot of things popular today that annoy me.  I guess a lot of it would lead back to social media.  Too many people post way too much crap on the internet.  There is a woman at church that is constantly posting pictures of cars (WITH THE TAG SHOWING) and complaining about them. Mostly because when they pump gas they go inside the store before they move their car.  Well cupcake not everyone pays at the pump.  I don't.  Gas stations frown on you driving off without paying.

There is another woman sadly she is also from church who complains about the people at fast food restaurants.

I also hate the way everybody is such candy butt snowflakes these days.  No matter what you do or say some pansy is going to get offended and try to get money so they can feel better.

I could go on and on but there is most likely a limit to the number of characters I can use and I would surely run out. lol

I hate when people text and drive or drive with a phone to their ear when the law is clearly no phones while driving. Yes I answer the phone but put it on speaker and only for a minute I am not gonna stay and have a long conversation with someone.  :peace:

It clearly depends on where you live.  Most states do have a law saying no texting while driving. BUT it is not against the law to talk on your phone.

It is funny you complain about others using their phone while driving but then admit you do the same thing. What is the difference?  You probably do things while you are on your phone that annoy other drivers.

Facebook, too much drama.

Between that and the breeches....I deleted mine.  Deleted every post, untagged myself from everything from friends, and send a request for FB to permanently delete the whole thing.

I don't think they do it for attention.  It is just the way it is today.  No, I don't agree with it.

I know a woman who was posting on Facebook how she was so broke, didn't know what she was going to do, literally has one slice of bread in the house and it has mold on it, and I swear 2 days later she posted a pic of herself eating at a steak house and a pic of her meal.  I had no words.  Well, I did but I kept the comment to myself.

Exactly.  We do not have to agree.  I have my opinion, you have yours.  We continue to live life.  But too many people if you do not agree with them start an all out war against you and will try to get you fired from your job and everything else they can.

Texting while driving, or playing with the GPS while driving. It seems like when someone is doing either thing they slow down 20 mph, and when you are behind them it is very annoying.

Probably all the BS that goes on with the Republicans & Democrats....and most political nonsense.The media plays it up cos it sells copy and it makes for opinions.

The energy that goes into that its a shame that energy doesnt go elsewhere where it can do more good.
