Sándwiches that are too big to take a reasonable bit
Agreed I love a nice little bit of meat, cheese and a few veggies slop your favorite sauces and you're done. None of this weird making a sandwich bigger than my head business, life isnt Scooby-Doo.
Animal exploitation
idaho's really bad
montana's full of nazis or whatever too but at least weed and abortions are legal here, the idaho panhandle is a weird half hour drive through raw fascism between WA and MT

Scotland is one of my hobby horses.
Now you’d think that they were a poor uwu wittle baby who were conquered instead of willingly joining in order to get more of that colonial pie as they spectacularly failed at establishing their own colonies. Scottish people have deluded themselves into thinking that they went through the same thing as the Irish rather than acting as the attack dogs of the English for the last 300 years, ironically also in Ireland. Being marginally less bad than the English is no great feat.
As a Scot, it’s annoying seeing people think that we are a “colony” of the English, because they do have an assumption of Scotland and England as different nations with different cultures and (sometimes shared) histories but assume that England annexed us illiegaly. we only formed the Union with England because we fucked up in our own efforts at imperialism, which we massively failed at and fucking bankrupted us. I would say that deciding to try and join the likes of England, France, Spain, the Netherlands etc in colonialism was the single worst decision that we ever made. Although one argument could be that the 1320 deflation of Arbroath talked about the sovereignty of the people and the 1707 Union was done against the wishes of the people, but that doesn’t make Scotland a full blown “colony”. Especially if many of us still support this union and/or willing joined the English as British imperialists. In many aspects, Scotland and England are different. But in some, we’re the same.
okay i'll go with the first thing i thought of. people who gatekeep/fake claim other people's mental illnesses. especially if it's just behind official diagnosis (which is classism). doing that does so much harm to vulnerable people in service of trying to make it seem like people with your mental illness aren't "cringe" to weirdos who like eugenics
The whole culinary fancy pantsy trend really drives me up the wall
The movie "Pacific Rim." Shit was corny as hell
The only thing wrong with Pacific Rim is that it wasn't a four hour long cut of big ass robots clowning big ass monsters in every biome on Earth. I want to watch Gipsy Danger cut a Kaiju in half with the People's Elbow from the top of a mountain. Lemme see Striker Eureka smash a Kaiju into a railway so an incoming Shinkansen blows through its skull like a kinetic rod. Shit, one of them wielded a ship like a baseball bat, let me see a train used as a whip or a garotte. Midair Kurosawa blade jump that ends with a Kaiju landing intact and then slowly sliding apart in two pieces while the Jaeger slowly gets up.
