Sorry if I sound like a total Karen, but I'm at the age where I despise fireworks, most especially the noisy ones. They seem pointless to me and make me think that people who are obsessed with this crap that they are trying to compensate for something they lack

When someone calls me and when I tell them I'm busy they still want to rush the question and engage with me. I end up repeating - Did you not HEAR when I told you I can't talk right now?

People who don't say thank you when you do something very polite like opening and holding a door. This happened to me just couple of days, I think I stood there for like 10 seconds till that lady-mail-woman came in. She just stared at me and said - OK.

Well, b-tch, next time I will LOCK the door when I see you, not open and hold it.

Debbie Downers who can't wait to find something negative in every occasion and/or thing you mention. It's so off-putting and annoying. Life is too short to lose time with negative people.

People who tell things that we all know... like they are telling me the secret of life and the universe. You know those types that are so condescending... they think I don't know it's day and not night outside when the sun is shining.

A neighbor who is blasting EURO 2024 soccer in his yard right now at 9-55 at night. I think of calling the cops... I will wait till it's 10 to do it. F-CKING disrespectful animals.

When someone says they know something or they wish if they can share something, but then they stay silent. Why even hint at it at all, when you are not going to say it? What a pathetic attention seeking trick. NEEEEXT.

Too alarming alarm songs... I swear when my husband puts some alarming music, I can go into a near heart attack from his phone. I don't need to hear sirens in  5 o'clock. I wake up to gentle nature sounds that have to ring for at least 5-10 minutes before I even hear them.

This is not only a pet peeve, but probably a clear sign that I should be terminating communication with the person in question.

Someone staring at their phone, not paying attention while I'm having conversation/dinner with them. Happened yesterday... I was meeting a friend I hadn't seen for a long time. I would open my phone only to check if my husband has left me a message and that's it. For glimpses... seconds. Well, she started responding to texts from some Tinder match mid-dinner, which annoyed me, but she's grown ass woman and I wanted to see how more she will sink. And how much she will continue acting like an idiot. 

She did this for more than 10-15 minutes... completely not paying attention and just smiling and laughing with a fake voice, thinking I'm okay with her not listening to anything I'm saying... At some point, I said to myself - it's better just to go and not even give her an explanation. I left more money than my part of the dinner, put my coat on and left. She didn't even realize what was happening till I was going out... she probably thought I was going to use the rest room. 

Now I've been getting constant messages saying Sorry and that she was stupid to do this... How she realized she ruined our dinner. I'm not responding. Too little... too late.

Bye b-tch.

    • It seems like they may have been going in one direction for Andre and then changed their mind. He had this player/bachelor thing going at first where he was messing with Dani, seemed to be feeling Eva, and then somehow smitten by bland Ashley of all people. I feel like Ashley was supposed to be the one that finally made him want to be with someone and settle. The way he talked her up in those earlier episodes was really confusing. The wonderful, amazing nurse Ashley and conveniently she's unattainable because she has a partner, but he can't stop thinking of her and takes these busted pics of her. It was a mess. However, it all seems to have been dropped. I honestly feel like Andre can go. That may be an unpopular opinion but I don't need his breathy final syllable to be content with BTG. It's always like "There's gotta be another wh-ahyy"
    • This is where McLaibey falls apart. It becomes clear that McTavish had not thought past Brent/Marion...so the energy drops and she starts throwing things at the wall (Blakes twins, Lonatrat.)   Fans HATED this funeral. Everyone is mad at everyone else, which is fine, the death of a beloved community figure would give people a reason to come together...(Quint and Nola could come together at least for  a bit to support each other, Nola and VAn could finally admit they kinda, sorta like each other) Its just an example of McTavish's mean writing.   I have a feeling they were going to make Dahlia Frank's kid but they chickened out. Making Tina a prostitute didn't help, they could have been lovers when they were young but felt society pressure to part. Marcus took over David's role (you can't have two young black men at that time...)   Get used to it...this will happen, the same storyline over and over until the end.
    • Does anyone happen to have a recording or any footage of Jennifer’s funeral?
    • It's such a shame that the conflict couldn't be resolved in a mature way between the two actors.. especially since Albee was a bigger asset for the show in terms of character and his popular will they/won't they pairing with Deborah Saxon. One of the things about Edge was that it was just as popular with male viewers as it was with women.  It's one of things I think the show forgot in the final year or two with the deemphasis on the male characters.
    • Daytime Confidential did a podcast of the worst mothers in soaps and here were their lists.  5.Felicia Scorpio 4.Reva Shayne 3.Dina Mergeron 2.Helena Cassadine/Shelia Carter 1.Brooke Logan Dishonorable Mentions- Stephanie Forrester,Ann Douglas, Phyllis Summers and Joanna Manning Joshua 5.Anna Devane 4.Diane Jenkins 3.Ava Vitali 2.Shelia Carter 1.Brooke Logan Dishonorable Mentions-Alexis Davis, Felicia Scorpio, Eve Donovan, Heather Webber, Natalia Ramirez, Stephanie Forrester,and Ruth Martin Luke 5.Natalia Ramirez 4.Diana Coville 3.Helena Cassadine 2.Alexis Davis 1.Arlene Vaughn Dishonorable Mentions-Stephanie Forrester Now for my comments. Wonder what Ruth Martin ever did to this guy?!!! I mean Ruth Martin? I don't get it. Next, IMO they are just picking on Eve Donovan. Who is Dina Mergeron? Same question  Joanna Manning? Diana Colville Is that because of the bad DAYS retcon of her being Leo Stark's mother? All of the rest, CO-SIGN!  
    • Thanks! Looking forward to reading the rest!

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
