15 "Why Do You Do That" Things That Make People So Mad, They Have Steam Coming Out Of Their Ears
Look, we're all human and get mad at certain things every now and then. So when I saw that Reddit user chi-bacon-bits asked: "At your age, what instantly pisses you off?" I thought it would be relatable to share their opinions below:
1."People with ZERO spatial awareness."
—Collt092
2."When ONE person at work fucks up and instead of sitting that person down and fixing it with them, EVERYONE has to go through 'training' to know not to do what they already don't have a problem not doing. Bonus points for sitting in that training and looking over at the ONE person it is all for and seeing from their slack-jawed vacant eye stare that they aren't learning a damn thing."
—varthalon
3."People not listening/paying attention to you when you are speaking because they are distracted by their phone."
—rorofish33
4."I'm 32 and what instantly pisses me off is internet illiteracy. I'm not talking about little kids; they haven't had the chance to learn. I'm referring to people around my age and up who have used the internet for a good portion of their lives. It doesn't matter how many times they're warned, they still click links in emails, invest money into online 'businesses' without asking important questions, click suspicious ads, and accept whatever image they see as real. It never ceases to amaze me how many people fall for all of this time and time again. Then they complain about their computer not working right or being angry about something that isn't real. It's just so maddening."
—trickster9000
"I agree with this, and to add on, when people (especially older ones) say things like, 'I don't do computers' or 'I don't do email.' It's a thirty-year-old technology for fucks sakes. You kept yourself in the dark on purpose."
—Whateveryousayman0

5."Loud anything: neighbors, cars, conversations, music at restaurants, you name it, it'll piss me off."
—YounomsayinMawfk
6."People who judge people off false assumptions about their age."
—Kshi-dragonfly
7."People who think being 23 means I've got unlimited energy, no stress, and 'my whole life ahead of me' so I shouldn't be tired or anxious. Like bro, I'm 23, not a Disney Channel character. Rent is due, my back hurts, and I have to Google how long to boil eggs. Let me be tired in peace."
—Future-Surround

8."People who talk on the phone on speaker setting, or people who listen to music in public on their speaker. Rage."
—None
9."Parents who let their children run amok."
—BnCtrKiki
10."People who finish using something and just leave it. Like making a bowl of cereal and leaving the box on the side and not putting it back pisses me off. Same with milk being left out."
—bigfootlittefoot
11."When the store changes its aisle placement."
—merlin318
12."The rising cost of living, that's just getting more and more wild each year, while the super rich worldwide spend billions on nonsense."
—MichelVolt
13."People staring at their phone while driving and driving like total shit."
—Lizard_State2500
14."People standing in the middle of the sidewalk, so you either have to walk through them or into the street to get around them. Share the effing sidewalk people!"
—youaresuchajerk
15."Everything. Now get off my lawn!"
—Ok-Dot-5344

Are you a victim of ‘dry begging'? Here's how to make sure passive-aggressive manipulation doesn't ruin your relationship
Even in the healthiest of relationships, conflicts are bound to arise. But how you deal with them speaks volumes about the strength of your bond. Passive-aggressive phrases like 'I guess I'll just do all of the laundry this week' or 'most people would be happy their partner does this' are prime examples of 'dry begging,' a phenomenon that couples counselors, therapists and other mental health experts are starting to call out. 'Dry begging operates by exploiting social cues and emotional signals rather than making direct requests,' explains Darren Magee, an accredited UK-based counselor, in a YouTube video that has since amassed almost half a million views. 'It usually involves dropping hints, displaying some kind of need or vulnerability, or making emotional demonstrations,' Magee elaborates. 'All of these are aimed at creating a sense of obligation in others.' Whether the person dry-begging realizes it or not, the tactic creates a situation where the other party feels compelled to help or agree — essentially preying on empathy. 'The key to a healthy, long-term relationship is the ability of a couple to communicate and understand the other on a deeply vulnerable level where each person lets their guard down,' relationship therapist Hope Kelaher tells Brides. 'Taking a passive-aggressive stance is the exact opposite: In worst-case scenarios, I have seen it not only leads to communication breakdown, but to increased conflict, partner withdrawal, mistrust, confusion, poor self-esteem, and, in the worst cases, the end of a relationship.' Though it's not an expression you'll find in psychology or counseling textbooks, it's a surprisingly common move that you or your partner may not even realize you're doing. On a Reddit thread that broached the topic of the relatively new term, one user was shocked to find that dry begging is more common in relationships than many would assume. 'When I saw this a few days ago, my reaction was, 'Wait, there's a word for that?!?!'' they replied under the original post. Magee suggests that while sometimes dry begging is unconscious behavior that stems from a fear of rejection or worries over coming across as a burden, it is also a tactic of emotional manipulation that narcissists often employ. 'Narcissists generally have a fragile self-image that they want to protect. Asking for help directly might make them look or feel vulnerable, weak or dependent. These are traits they might associate with inferiority. 'Dry begging allows them to hint at their needs without compromising their sense of superiority or self-sufficiency,' he adds. That being said, in many relationships — whether they're platonic, familial or romantic — people are unaware of their own red flags. Dry begging 'is not always manipulative — it certainly can be — but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. First, look at what's the intention, and is it a pattern,' Aerial Cetnar, a therapist and owner of Boulder Therapy and Wellness in Colorado, tells HuffPost. 'It's common that people are not really taught how to ask for things in a way that's really clear and direct,' Cetnar continues. 'Sometimes they resort to dry begging because it feels like it's a hint and they'd rather it be a hint that gets rejected than a clear ask to be rejected.' Experts agree that when a pattern of manipulation arises, even if it seems as subtle as dry begging on occasion, it may be time to have an open conversation about the issue and seek help from a professional to resolve it. Any pattern of behavior is difficult to break, but whether you or your partner is the dry beggar in question, experts advise, it's an important step to recognize that people can't read minds. Communication, in other words, is key. Identifying the presence of dry begging in a relationship is only the first step to mending damage done by passive-aggressive manipulation. The Bay Area Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Center suggests engaging in a grounded, calm conversation that can prevent triggering a defensive reaction from either party — avoiding blame is important, according to experts at the center. From there, Magee and Cetnar both emphasize that setting boundaries, engaging in direct communication, seeking personalized professional guidance, and, if necessary, evaluating the status of the relationship itself are excellent next steps to preventing future dry-begging incidents.
