The amount of ads on the internet is just so fucking unreasonable. Some sites have so many, including ones you can't even x out of, that is renders the site damn near unusable.

Fucking blood-suckers.

and pages where you can't access anything without disabling your ad blocker

even Amazon Prime is shoving commercials in and you now have to pay even more to not see them, FFS

Remember the days when you could watch a YouTube video without being interrupted with ads every few minutes? We didn’t know how good we had it.

This trend of people posting receipts and complaining about the prices of things, after they've already paid for it. For example, saw a post the other day of someone who ate at Five Guys and was complaining about the price. Anyone who's been there knows their menu and prices are posted very clearly at the register. Is it expensive for burgers and fries? Well it's not cheap, but spare me with the victim routine. You can easily turn around and walk out the door and eat somewhere else.

Or another tweet where someone posted their receipt from ordering room service in a hotel in NYC. You'll always pay a premium for room service in general, but in NYC? Of course it's going to be ridiculously expensive. Get the F outta here

Tipping in general has become frustrating.

I got some chinese take-out recently and the lowest default tip option was 15%. 15% just to pack up my order? I think 10% max is perfectly appropriate for getting take-out.

Preach.

It makes me feel guilty when I don't tip on a takeout order, but on the flip side the argument is "why don't you just pay your employees better?"

Tipping on a takeout order is just subsidizing a business who doesn't want to pay their employees proper wages.

I just had a Domino's open 20 feet from me and they do not have tipping. It's not an option paying online or in the store. And there is no tip bucket. I was shocked when I saw that.
