The word "poop". It sounds so disgusting and I can't bear it if anyone over 6 years of age uses it. Say shit or crap or manure or even stool, just not that stupid nauseating word.

Whenever I poop I try to say the word "poop" with my butthole. It always makes the perfect poop. Not a lot of people know that.

I hate dish towels hanging on kitchen drawers. Do people just like picking up the towel every time you need a fork?

Newspapers who use the word "ouster" but as a noun, not a verb.

"With Torres conspicuously absent from City Council and committee meetings and events in District 3, the mood quickly changed from offering Torres due process to calling for his ouster as many residents and organizations felt Torres was in no position to effectively represent his constituents."
—Devan Patel, The Mercury News, 6 Nov. 2024
"Niccol’s surprise hiring in August — announced alongside Narasimhan’s ouster — was greeted with widespread praise from the Club and Wall Street, with Starbucks market capitalization soaring by $21 billion in a single day, to nearly $109 billion."
—Kevin Stankiewicz, CNBC, 23 Oct. 2024
"The news of Hinton’s award comes weeks away from the first anniversary of Altman’s brief, stunning and ultimately unsuccessful ouster—as well as the second anniversary of the launch of ChatGPT at the end of November 2022."
—Christiaan Hetzner, Fortune, 9 Oct. 2024

The habit of people to skip any or all nuance in assessing a situation because it's "more palatable".
A good example of this is familial relations. Family is more than just "parent", "child", "sibling", "friend", and/or "spouse", you could have grey areas where something would come off as not quite one thing or another thing. Age-gap siblings can develop into having an aunt or uncle who is younger than you, or you might be older than your step-parent, or you might manifest a relationship in a way that contains some aspects of a friendship, etc. But there are people who don't want to hear any of the buts about it, they just want a one word answer.
The color brown, especially in clothing. I can't quite put my finger on why that is.
Wood is mostly okay, though.
It's overdone especially decor and furniture. Same with beige, navy blue, black, or other neutral business casual "adult" colors.

I hate when people use my shoulder as support, as I'm showing them something. Simply... don't, okay?

~~I'm sorry, but why do you care if people wear hot clothes in warm places?~~
For me it's enshittification, stupid policies in any institution or just overrergulation in general.
