Pet Peeves - What Pisses You Off?

The whole Black Friday thing starting earlier and earlier. I've actually never physically gone out on Black Friday. I'll pay more not to go out and deal with the general public. But Dear Lord, it seems like these companies get earlier and earlier every year and orgasm in my email inbox and on audio ads. Just keep it where it was, so it's a special time once a year.

I’m 100% with you on that, screw going out with all those people who are basically Karens.

the deals are nothing different than any other sale during the year, same 10%, 20% they run pretty much year round
 
Chinese soft bolts and tools.
prepping Jeep for winter, removed bolts on the SS to give them a coat of anti-seize, broke a bolt removing it.
Drilled a hole for an extraction bit no luck, the bolt was too soft and stripped more.

So much swearing right now, parents are calling their children and pets inside....

Got it drilled out enough where the threads were barely visible, decided to tap it and save the threads.
Tapping was going well until it hit maybe a thicker area? don't know, backed it out and worked it a little at a time then the pos tap got stuck, put some force to back it out and it broke, broke!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

broken bolt stuck like a MF, tried heat, blaster, freezing the damn thing and did not budge.
tried to tap it loose and sheared it flush.

broken tap, about 2 hours wasted at this point, unfucking believable
