TV ads used to be quite fun. These days, they seem to want to irritate or provoke rather than make us laugh. (See my list below, especially the "I put too much sugar in my spaghetti sauce" one, after which Galaxy AI comes up with an utterly disgusting tomato biscuit recipe.)

It makes me want to avoid any products they're selling. (Definitely the cremation and funeral plan ads I get served a LOT. Thanks.)

I wonder who comes up with that stuff and how much they're getting paid for it?

My bugbears:

- Domino-hoo-hoo
- Tesco-Whoosh
- GalaxyAI - "Too much sugar in my bloody spaghetti sauce"
- All hygiene products
- All perfume ads

Anyway. Which ones could you do without?

It has been one of those days. Everything that has happened today has rubbed me the wrong way. Well… maybe not everything, but most things. Why? Is it because the Bruins were shut out last night? It could be. Is it because the fucking Yankees are in the World Series? It might be.

Here’s hoping the drive home will be a turning point. Granted I will have to stop for gas before I get home, but I am finally going to finish my JRR Tolkien deep dive/audio book re-read. Well… I listened to the Silmarilian (boy, was that rough) and about 15 minutes into tonight’s commute I will complete The Lord of the rings (much better, except for all the singing… ouch). Up next in my Audible queue is Stephen King’s new short story collection. That should be a nice palette cleanser after all the Middle Earth fantasy. I guess I should read The Hobbit too, for completeness, and anything else that Tolkien may have published that I have never read. Naw, let’s get into some King for a while.

Once I get home the plan is to make a quick dinner for me and the love of my life. Burgers (fried on the stove) and fries (fried in the air fryer). Then we’ll sit down in the living room and enjoy a quiet night together making fun of our clinically insane cats. As per usual.

Here’s hoping for a fun, quiet night tonight and a less stressful work day tomorrow.

Hear what’s #irritating #Trump after watching the #DNC

#CNN's #KaitlanCollins reports 2024 #Republican #presidentialnominee #DonaldTrump and his #campaign are irritated by the #references to "#Project2025" during the #DemocraticNationalConvention in #Chicago.

i haven’t seen anyone else riled about this, but i *hate* that the last iphone OS update changed the buttons on the right side of the calculator app from orange to red — why?? And to make it worse, on the app icon, they are still orange! Steve Jobs would fire people over this sort of thing, lol. #Rant #Irritating

The irritating gentleman (1874) by Berthold Woltze (German artist, lived 1829-1896). Tch. 😔

#Antitrans #attacks aren’t the #winning #election strategy that the right thinks it is.

#Republicans keeps #losing #elections and #irritating #voters with its #antitrans #attacks but it still can't quit trying to use them.

— It's because they are out of real ideas that matter to voters!

Most #Irritating thing about #WatchOS 10? Losing the easy way to swipe between Watch faces. Used this a lot when out and about to change the info displayed, quickly change colour schemes, and to do a quick check of info displayed on other faces.

Overall though, the new look UI is a really refreshing upgrade to what had become a very boring looking OS. The colour especially has added a much needed new feel - Weather app is a big improvement looks wise.

@yurnidiot Sleep in the basement with a covered window well diffusing the light - summer is 5am, winter is 7. #irritating especially since I try not to wake the others.

Shell tries to quash air quality fears from Beaver County chemical plant | Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

When a #terrible #odor blanketed the area around the #Shell #Oil #cracking plant earlier this month, residents had only their noses and sporadically high readings from public air monitors to assess the situation.

Many were left wondering what they were exposed to and whether it was dangerous.

Shell officials hired a senior toxicologist from the consulting contractor #CTEH — the same company hired by #Norfolk #Southern in the wake of its derailment in East Palestine — who told the community that it was safe.

The levels of #benzene, a known carcinogen, detected at the fence line of the petrochemical plant in #Beaver #County PA were too low to “be associated with even transient discomfort or irritation,” said Christopher Kuhlman, the toxicologist that #Shell #hired to review air data and assess exposure.

But Anthony Pizon, chief of medical toxicology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center’s Department of Emergency Medicine, who reviewed the air monitoring data on Monday, said “You can #smell something and it can be #irritating.”
“From my vantage point, it’s hard to go off those numbers,” he said. “I would look at the patients themselves.”
He encouraged anyone who thinks they were #exposed to anything #toxic to call the #poison #control #center at 800-222-1222.

Nope, my #automationto keep my #Google #hub #max fails, and the device continues to jump up to 10% volume when I open the home app or turn on a light. Very #irritating feature.

Nice question @Squirrel ..
The web experience is almost #flawless for me, even better than with Tusky!
Just, I find a bit #irritating when I open the #emoji tab and also the keyboard opens.. both occupy half screen and overlap each other.. So have to close the keyboard and then choose an emoji, but it also hang everything a bit..
For the rest, I would highly suggest it! (I am in the #qoto instance, which is a modded one, might be different with normal #instances)
