Nvidia hates Wayland. :(
Funeral Homes hate the Government.
They are incredibly rude to the families receiving financial assistance, it takes 3 months for them to pay us, and did you know that if you don’t have a will they cut your step-children out of the process entirely?
We had one gentleman in our care whose only living family was his step-daughter. Because there were no blood relatives and no will the Public Guardian took control of his disposition and the step-daughter had no say in anything that happened with him. Wasn’t allowed to keep a portion of the ashes, the Funeral Director had to fight just to allow the step-daughter a brief final visitation.
This is also true for children under 18. Your 17 year old child has no say in your disposition if you have no other living relatives.
Have a will people, if for no other reason than to allow your loved ones to decide how they will grieve rather than some indifferent bureaucrat.
Which country is this?
Canada
Anyone using a phone hates clankers.
There’s one automated system I need to call regularly at work that does not give me the option of dialing numbers and forces me to speak to it. It lists the options it can understand, but I can’t just press a number to move on. Then it asks me to say and spell my first name, then say my last name (which it guesses the spelling of incorrectly) and pretends to type while it’s processing. Why are we doing this?
Physical therapists hate motorcycles.
School bus drivers hate landscapers. And Amazon delivery drivers, but at least those fuckers move quickly.
We also hate children but I probably shouldn’t admit that publicly.
Arborists hate Bradford pear trees. They’re the ones that have white flowers and smell like cum. That’s not even why we hate them though.
I wrote a mobile app years ago for a company that surveyed power lines to figure out what trees had to be cut away. They gave me a list of something like 800 tree species and I was like “do you guys really know what all these trees look like?” They did, it was a very impressive knowledge set.
A fun fact about power lines in rural areas: property owners generally get compensated monetarily when their trees have to be trimmed for this, and the amount they get is dependent on the species of tree. So the surveyors would usually find all kinds of incredibly exotic shit planted directly under the lines, basically a cash crop for people living in the middle of nowhere. This is probably a huge and under-appreciated factor in the spread of invasive species.
Well, what is it?
It’s an invasive species and they grow with very poor structure so that they basically collapse in a pile or broken limbs after a couple of decades. And the nurseries marketed them heavily for a while so they’re planted everywhere. Pain in the ass to work with.
And palaeoecologists hate people that borrow our lab, leave shit everywhere, and try to take it over. For FUCKS SAKE.
Firemen hate pedophiles
Teachers hate pedophiles
Doctors hate pedophiles
Lawyers hate pedophiles
Liberals hate pedophiles
Conservatives hate pedophiles
Independents hate pedophiles
Where’s the fucking list Donny? Give us the list you fat orange fuck. We know you’re on it, and so do you. How did you think this was going to pan-out, dumbass?
Conservatives hate pedophiles
I wish this was really a blanket rule.
We can put “most” in front of all of these categories. Acting like there are no liberal or independent ones is the equivalent of enabling them. Put them all in prison no matter what political affiliation.
It’s in that performative superiority-complex way, like Lindsey Graham hating gays
From what we’re seeing in three US, pedophiles hate pedophiles… at least publicity.
Conservatives hate pedophiles
Unless it’s their own, then “he’s saving a young girl from extreme poverty”/“she’s teaching a lucky boy a special lesson”/“was a human after all, no one is perfect”.
Shitlibs that pretend Bill Clinton and Joe Biden aren’t pedos give me a fucking headache. Also Bill Gates and Alan Dershowitz.
Bill Clinton would be unsurprising. He might be just a run of the mill philanderer, though. I haven’t seen any legitimate reason to suspect Biden. Of course I spent 20 years thinking Michael Jackson was just a weird dude with a Peter Pan complex and might legitimately not have been a pedo, so maybe I just don’t have a very good pedodar.
I was never sure about MJ, but I know that he was physically and sexually abused by members of his family. Dershowitz tried to push for lowering the age of consent to 14. Bill Gates was on the “Lolita Express”. No one associated with Epstein that went to his island is not a pedo, or at least a pedo enabler.
Cell biologists hate contaminants.
Proctologists hate things without a flared base.
“An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but not this way!”
Software devs hate users
Software devs also hate UX/UI Designers.
And Product Owners.
And Scrum Masters.
And Software Architects.
And Security/Compliance Managers.
And QA Testers.
And worst of all… Software devs.Software devs also hate UX/UI Designers.
I would never be able to explain coherently the difference between UX and UI people. I’ve only worked for one company that even had a UX guy on staff. He was paid an insane amount of money (close to half a mil per year) and as far as I could tell did absolutely nothing except insist that certain procedures be followed rigorously. He never designed anything at all himself.
He was the only coworker I’ve ever had who ended up refusing to speak to me or even acknowledging my existence. This came about because I wrote a TV Guide-type app for Blackberry which our client loved and insisted on having added to their corporate app. The UX guy insisted that no app could be produced unless it was preceded by a formal design document, so he was forced into the situation of having to produce a design document for an app that had already been written, which completely broke his brain. Or rather, he was forced into ordering someone else to do this, since as I mentioned he never actually did anything himself.
He eventually left because he got a job offer for way more money lol. I guess I shouldn’t make fun of somebody who had the system figured out far better than me.
Damned software devs, they ruined software!
Software devs sure are a contentious bunch
You’ve just made an enemy for life!
And themselves from a month ago…
… when they said to themselves "This little piece of code is fine, I don’t need to change it now. I’ll just refactor it later. "
And technology. That’s why they all fantasize about living on farms
Software engineers hate MBAs. It’s like they live in a fantasy world where everything works perfectly and can be done in 3 days and can read your mind.
That’s why those fuckers love LLMs so much. They don’t understand anything remotely technical, and it makes them believe they can just cut out the grumpy, uncooperative middleman and push shit code in production they are unable to audit.
sysadmins hate end users because end users suck.
This brought to mind a collection of asshole admin stories from the early internet. With a bit of googling, it was The Bastard Operator From Hell. God, I haven’t thought of those since the 90s. I can’t believe I could even recall something like that.
Anyway, fuck users.
That thing spawned so many fucking great memes before they were even widely called that
They are still ongoing!
Hear hear
I know q-tips aren’t safe or whatever but man it feels too good to stop.
They’re perfectly safe. Just pinch it towards the end you’re using, can’t do too deep that way.
I bought metal earwax spoons. Sure, q-tips feel great and all, but pulling out the clod of wax actually responsible for the itch is divine
What do you mean, not safe? I always thought “do not use in your ear canal” was just a joke they wrote on the packaging. Like, actually good one, what else are you gonna do with it?
Q-tips aren’t meant to go in the ear the same way adult novelty toys aren’t meant to go in the butt.
They are called novelty toys because the countries they are made in have laws against adult toys but not novelty items.
That’s my point - Q-tips and novelty toys are both more commonly used for their off-label functionality because listing that on the label is inconvenient for the maker.
They’re also used as cleaning tips for small/targeted applications, especially when you don’t want lint from a Kleenex or paper towel lingering. Makeup application/removal and electronics cleaning, for example.
I think (not a doctor) the ear thing is because if you go too deep you can cause some serious damage, and they can make wax buildup worse by compacting it. If you stay close to the ear opening, and do circular motions to swipe wax away, and clean your ears often enough that you don’t get dense wax build up, and don’t “double dip” to introduce potential pathogens, then I think they’re pretty safe to use? But that’s too many caveats for lots of people, so I think ENTs often deal with people damaging themselves with them.
Dentists hate 1, 16, 17, and 32.
I don’t even have those anymore and now their absence is causing problems.
