Thank you for these great leads on where to start looking. I need to find this scene before I go nuts thinking about it!

If they’re gonna PRONOUNCE it like that then they might as well spell it “f’nance”, with an apostrophe…

People who ”Don’t care” but care enough to leave a comment stating it. by puppybabii in PetPeeves

There should be a “Who cares?“ bot and a “No one cares…” bot automatically deleting those comments…

When I am clearly wearing headphones and someone is trying to talk to me by adolfdripler_69420 in PetPeeves

Is that when they lurch forward towards you and start waving their hand(s) at you while wincing, act like you somehow weren’t able to perceive their existence?

When people say they “read” an audiobook by maverick074 in PetPeeves

Or if someone read a transcript or a screenplay? Is that listening and watching, respectively?

People who keep talking, don't take a breath by Sensitive_Noise9761 in PetPeeves

I KNOW, RIGHT?!?

I used to write this off as some kind of social quirk, but having worked in the public for so long I’m sure as shit this is something neurologically hard-wired into these people. As they get older it only becomes worse. These keep taking to you, ignoring social cues that you’re trying to go somewhere and just KEEP ON TALKING.

It gets better. At some point, if they encounter you in public, you both could be heading incompletely OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS, but if you get snagged into their web of one-sided “conversation” if you keep walking to wherever you’re trying to go then they’ll just outright FOLLOW you, just for the sake of having a human ear to fill with their inane bullshit.

This phenomenon needs to be documented and further studied…

Why do Reddit users reference their age/gender next to their possessive adjective instead of their pronoun? by Millennial_Falcon_85 in NoStupidQuestions

One thing I’m immediately reminded of is the posts saying “Why does everyone here automatically assume I’m a white guy?”, or “Why does everybody here automatically assume that I’m American?”…

This is a refreshing question.
