What cheeses me off

There are some little things that amuse me though some are CO by them.
There is a speed camera on the Nicklin way heading north at Kawana. Often the traffic is going at 70Kph which is the speed limit there. But most will slow to 60 going past the speed camera.

Its December, Aussie Post is hiring any one they can to get the Chrissy parcels delivered

Agreed - they throw a fishing net from the back of a bus and scoop up what they can get

My WCMO are people that toss their ciggies out their window. Its 2025, why are they still doing this? I feel like dobbing them in the to NSW EPA

..that really grinds my gears.. as if putting up with passive smoke and smelly clothes is not enough for us we have to risk a local fire

One of the residents in my apartment block (only 5 apartments) is a smoker and you can tell when he's been in the lift

I hate getting in lifts with people who have been drinking wine or beer. Or after people who have been drinking beer.
Stinks even if they are not drunk.

Is it the same brand AC unit in lounge and bedroom? Often the remotes are interchangeable.

Unfortunately no.

I find it hard to accept a week for an air con remote..you are not trying hard enough ...
Amazon prime will probably have a universal remote delivered in a day or less , local dealers and air con installers are all likely to have one..

People who discount mainstream medical science but pontificate on whether you should eat certain foods based on your blood group. Apparently strawberries are poisonous to people with O blood group and should be avoided at all costs. I said I'm O and love strawberries and they don't affect me and the response was well it doesn't apply to everyone FFS

I have a passing interest in archeology and pseudo-archaeology.
There has been a huge wall of noise created by the pseudo camp, mostly generated by unqualified folks with strong belief and a nice turn of phrase.
The rise of AI now means the conceptual constructs of an alternate dialogue may/will generally be much harder to counter as the AI has the access and the calculation smarts to present very believable output.
Down the track , average humans will have 0 hope of separating fact from fiction across most of their lives.. which cheeses me off a little...

Don't forget Erich Anton Paul von Däniken in the days before AI.

Erich Anton Paul von Däniken

The father of what has become a belief revolution in the history of the species.
Hard science has failed to win hearts and minds , partly due the the constrictions of it's religious belief origins
and the sad reality that they have mostly failed to build a believable history story.
The fiction lot have had a party, made squillions , won many hearts and a few less minds
