Things that make you irrationally angry

Anonymous
1. Any doodle variation. Enough already
2. The fact that it's social unacceptable to dislike Hamilton
3. Canada goose coats. None one in DC needs a coat that's rated for -60 F temps in Antartica
4. Those goofy cargo bikes where the kids ride in the front bucket. These same like borderline child endangerment when on busy streets.
5. Liberals who drive Teslas

I have to mute these stupid Capital One commercials because I get so angry. She smiles while people who don't have her income get credit cards that put them in debt. She should be ashamed.

Toile.

I’m guessing it has something to do with a past life.

Last time she even argued with me about my weight.

Also before she cuts my hair she says things like “you have too much hair. We need to cut this - the hair overwhelms you. Too much hair!”
Is the owner of your salon my mother?

Customer service phone trees where you have to plug in your info to verify who you are to get to an agent, who then asks you to verify your info AGAIN

why’d you ask me the first time then??

Harley Davidson motorcycles. They are disgusting, ugly and loud.

1. When people say croissant without a French accent. #frenchitup
2. When people are walking and they cross right in front of me forcing me to come to a sudden stop, especially if those people are men.
3. People who listen to music or watch videos in public without headphones.

SAHMs who complain to me about how "crazy busy" their lives are ... like seriously? I do the exact thing they do AND I have a full time job as well!

All of the above.

It makes me irrationally irritated to see any toile…to the point I feel uneasy in a room with toile. I’ve put toile pillows in the closet when I’ve encountered them in a hotel or guest room and I’ve immediately walked out of stores.

People that chew loudly/smack their lips. Luckily I’m evolved enough to not actually get angry, it’s more an internal burn. Probably now healthy but here we are.

Jennifer Garner has a Capital One ad that starts with "You may know me from my other job, but I'm also a small business owner." Right away I'm irritated, because Jennifer Garner's main professional job is making commercials for Capital One. I know she's referring to her acting career, but the only acting she's done worth watching in the last 10 years is a small part on the reboot of Party Down, otherwise she mostly makes these ads and posts on social media. So no, Jen, I don't really know you from your other job. This is your job, this commercial I'm currently watching. Alias was ages ago.

But second, it makes me irrationally angry that Garner would describe herself as a "small business owner" and position herself as someone in a similar situation to the average small business owner, and thus capable of giving "advice" on how to take advantage of Capital One's small business services. As an actual small business owner, I would describe Garner as a "vanity business owner." Which is fine, but different. She's also, again, a paid spokesperson for Capital One, and has been for many years, so the idea that their relationship is premised on her business is ludicrous. It makes me really mad.

But the most enraging part of the ad comes at the end, when Jennifer is at the airport with her "colleagues" (a group of actors I am certain do not work for Jen's "business" and that she met on set the day this was filmed) waiting for the flight for their "business trip." She's extolling one of the perks of banking with Capital One, travel perks including access to airport lounges. She says, "I could get used to this!" in that folksy, guileless way she has of saying things. And then my head explodes.

YOU ARE JENNIFER GARNER. YOU USED TO BE MARRIED TO BEN AFFLECK. YOU HAVE A CRAP TON OF MONEY, LIVE IN A HUGE HOUSE IN MALIBU OR SOMETHING, AND FLY PRIVATE OR (AT A MINIMUM) FIRST CLASS WHEN YOU FLY. YOU DO NOT NEED ACCESS TO CAPITAL ONE'S SMALL BUSINESS PERKS TO GAIN ACCESS TO A FREAKING **AIRPORT LOUNGE** AND YOU ARE ALREADY USED TO IT. WHAT EVEN IS THIS, DOES THIS COMMERCIAL ACTUALLY INDUCE ANYONE TO BANK WITH CAPITAL ONE, WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS IS THE DUMBEST COMMERCIAL IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

/rant, thank you for reading


Same ad is played over and over ago 1.5 years later during World Series.

I find the Garner “small business owner” ad annoying too. Not irrationally angry, but I think it’s tone deaf and weird.
