In general:
- Control freaks, including people who want to make or pressure others to conform to their preferences, their lifestyle choices, etc.
- Obliviousness--people who don't seem aware of others and their needs when they're out and about (or at least people who don't care)
- Really hyper people and excessive worriers or people who see everything as a major disaster/sensationalizers
- People who are regularly, negatively judgmental, complainers/naggers/etc.

And the control freak one, too. |

contemplating that the national enquirer is the most read paper in the united states. and seeing the direct correlation between that and the election of someone like trump. i'm not sure i would lose my cool, it's more an enlightened awareness that orwell was off by thirty three years.

It's impossible to lose what you are.  You might as well ask me what makes me lose my skin color. |

People using trademark names for generic products (example 'Kleenex' to describe a non-Kleenex branded facial tissue, or 'Hoover' to describe a non-Hoover branded vacuum cleaner).   |

Did you know "Escalator" was actually a trademark name? Go figure. I didn't know that. With the non-household products such as moving staircases and internal loudspeaker systems, it's easy for the origins of the commonly used terms to become obscured. But I no longer refer to loudspeaker systems as "tannoys" and will no longer refer to moving staircases as "escalators". |

So you're gonna be like "let's take the moving staircase" and "there's a really big moving staircase in that mall". LOL, that sounds ridiculous. I think I'll start using that phrase too. I used to wind my brother up all the time by referring to iPods, MP3 players, etc, as "music boxes". |
