Re: Things that PISS YOU OFF!!!
People with a few thousand subs on youtube who think they're celebrities piss me off, especially if they delludedly think they're some kind of hero or it's a job (no less useful to society than the 'real media' i guess). 'Friend invites' from spambots piss me off.
The conflation of a bunch of unrelated concepts under a single umbrella pisses me off; the predictability of human action has nothing to do with weather it's caused, and neither of those have anything to do with weather deterrent or retribution (which have nothing to do with each other) are valid, but they're all confusingly labelled free will. Deduction from evidence can qualitatively answer all the individual questions, trying to jump from some instinctive / debate / introspective / traditional idea about one to the other is nonsense. People's inability to admit when they don't have enough evidence to come to a solid conclusion (when they don't need to come to one) leading them to blindly leap to conclusions they'll defend tooth and claw pisses me off.
People who think being "open minded" about an idea after it's been tested against evidence and failed the test, piss me off. People who think they're better because they refuse to have an oppinion, or put their money where their mouth is.
Philosophical bull sh*t pisses me off (especially when the person doesn't behave like they really believe their claims) weather it's arguing against the need for evidence, acting their BS idea is true because it's slightly less BS than the traditional competition, arguing weather a meaningless word applies to a bunch of facts they all agree on, especially when that word is one of those umbrella terms for unrelated things that piss me off.

I'm sorry, Cynthia, I'll leave you alone then.

I hate that my direct report has to watch me a like a hawk yet she can make personal phone calls all day long and not work.
At least I can multi-task...

Probably a remnant of that not too long ago time when we were a farming society. Stuff left over from a dead time pisses me off almost as much as summer. People who say day is the best time of the (um) day piss me off just as much, for the same reason.

Every season has its ups and downs. I'd like it to be colder, but not winter, as we get snow up here. And we had a particularly harsh winter this year. Snow pisses me off (still)!

Amnesty International
Acting like sending letters to people will elicit change pisses me off, as with any symbolic victories. I tried joining the one at our school, it told us to send letters to politicians in Dafur to tell them genocide is wrong!
That and the gender and race specific targets of it's campaigns forced me out - injecting identity politics into things that make people of all stripes suffer is a sure fire way of pissing me off.
Penalties piss me off, not death. If killing saved more lives than it ended, and no alternatives were around, go for it. Prisons piss me off as much as execution, if justified retributive way.
Emotions on both sides drive people to discard facts, but it's facts that hurt and help people. The BS philosophical justifications for emotions that make people feel logical and justified piss me off more. Makes it hard to see objectively what the effect of death penalty is.
"You do the crime, you do the time" and other attempts to strip society of responsability for the consequences of punishment, by making it 'natural' and therefore not in need of justification, piss me off, as most of this status-quo is less than 100 years old!
Blaming the individual 100%, focussing all effort on rehabilitating or punishing them, and ignoring the social factors that lead them into crime piss me off as ignoring the role of individual difference. As dealing with the social problems would help in other ways, and as almost everyone focuses on punishing individuals (being the devil's advocate) I have to focus on society.
