10 Annoying Life Situations

Sometimes we have bad days; sometimes we have good days. Some days are a rollercoaster of emotions that make you wonder why you ever tried doing anything, ever. Yet, all of us are suffering or gaining from different situations. I recognize that the following list is one of First World problems. There are far too many people who do not have the opportunities or the tools to live the same lifestyle a lot of us can enjoy. We should always be thankful for the privileges we get that some may never receive. Never the less, there are things in this world that currently annoy the s**t out of me; as I'm sure it annoys the s**t out of others too. Undoubtedly, these are some of the most annoying thing out there:

1. Über drivers that ask you for directions to where you're going.

Über drivers literally (I'm using this word correctly) have a GPS system programmed into the App. Please do not ask me where I am going; there are directions... follow them. AND NO STARS FOR GLEN COCO.

2. Automated customer service.

Look robots are cool and all but not when you're trying to find out what's wrong with your Cable.

3. The chip/swipe checkout horror.

I'm okay with having more security, but please get your s**t together. We're tired of looking like idiots at the register.

4. NC-17 P.D.A. (Public Displays Of Affection)

We get it, you guys really love each other. Please, go and love each other in a room and not next to that five year old that's at a very vulnerable stage in her life. I know she's not you're problem but, to be honest, the rest of us are really grossed out watching you shove your tongue down your girlfriend's throat.

5. Public bathrooms with no hand soap.

The experience was already gross and now it's worse. Remember to grab some hand sanitizer when you're leaving the gas station.

6. The mysteriously missing socks from the laundry room.

"I know I put five pairs in there. Why do I have three pairs and only two other socks with different patterns?"

7. People that wait until they get to the front of the line to decide what they want.

Could you please wait by the side so the colossal line of patrons you've created with you're indecision can go on with their lives?

8. Company commercials that have famous artists cover their slogans with a song.

I really don't care how Rachel Platten tunes it; you're an Insurance Company, you can't fool me with her smooth voice.

9. Hovering.

Why are you still standing over me? The conversation is over. Let's part our separate ways now and enjoy our personal space.

10. The teacher's pet.

Now that classes are starting this one especially vexes me. I'm glad you know a lot and you want to have a special relationship with the professor. Please, save it for after class; the rest of us don't care and we're just trying to get through the day. Oh, and to to the one's that remind the teacher about our homework even though they hadn't asked for it - you suck the most.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

RBF, or resting b*tch face, is a serious condition that many people suffer from worldwide. Suffers are often bombarded with daily questions such as "Are you OK?" and "Why are you so mad?" If you have RBF, you've probably had numerous people tell you to "just smile!"

While this question trend can get annoying, there are a couple of pros to having RBF.

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
