Exactly!
Especially since it means the opposite of what people seem to be imagining it to be. It means “I was glad to do it, it was not arduous, not a problem, etc.”. As someone further upthread said, it’s my job, so “no problem” means exactly that! It is “no problem” because I do it cheerfully as part of my job.
I’m sick and tired of…
CEO’s getting ever-increasing million-dollar bonuses and salaries thousands of times more than those who do the “real” work for the companies, all while the same real workers are getting systematically layed-off or having their jobs given to overseas personnel.
Uncompromising politicians who are elected and paid to cooperate and compromise with their peers in order to pass legislation towards the improvement of the country’s many problems.
Any and all political and/or religious Facebook garbage.
Those who WATCH reality TV shows.
Street pot-hole fixers. Whoever you are, you are terrible at your job, and I hate you.
Kale. …cuz I wanna be one of the cool kids… so, yeah, F**k Kale! …all green and healthy and sh*t.
Yes, this. Please do not tell me how to speak, I’m having a fabulous time and I know exactly what I’m doing.
And the thing I’m sick and tired of is scrolling past shows on TV listings that look really, really good, and then realizing that they are on a channel I do not get (someday, Science Channel, someday…). They probably post the listings on purpose to entice me to purchase these channels, the greedy little shits.
I’m also sick and tired of Investigation Discovery (though I’m sure they’re not the only offenders) fetishizing violent crimes committed by women. “Look at these pretty girls! They’re just ~sooooooo~ bad! Doesn’t she look cute with her pistol and red lipstick and stilettos??” Folks, she MURDERED SOMEONE. The only thing I care about is that she is no longer on the street harming people. I could go on, actually, about the racist and misogynistic implications of this, but I’ll save that for my own blog.
(And yet I can’t stop watching that channel.)
I am sick of the insurance commercials and advertisements that have that little green man. I look away from the television every time it airs. On another note, I can not stand that expression “baby bump”!
Savannah Guthrie’s annoying voice. How did she ever manage to become NBC’s go-to reporter? Whenever she substitutes for Brian Williams, I have to turn off the TV or risk going into one of those Kramer seizures. It’s like she swallowed a duck or something.
They should have called it “Original Coke” or, playing off their slogan, “Real Coke.” A soft drink isn’t classic, no matter how old it is. Unless it was found in a sealed bottle in Pompeii.
There’s a weather person on the Weather Network here that I have that reaction to - I don’t know her name, but she’s a young blonde woman with a very screechy, very nasal, Toronto Valley Girl voice that drives me up the wall.
I have had it with these mother-fucking teenagers on this mother-fucking plane!
One of my recent assignments was with a small airline that ran charter flights; people don’t seem to understand that there are different, strict rules when you’re on an airplane, even if you’ve chartered it (which I see this wasn’t, just a regular flight). I can totally believe that a bunch of teenagers were getting rowdy and out of control, and the air crew decided they’d had enough.
Samsung Commercial with Kill it Kid singing “Run”
What a gawd-awful song.
