@intrepidhero In all seriousness, this is easily my biggest pet peeve. Not just "hiking pet peeve" but LIFE IN GENERAL.
@killyourfm It's up there. Not as bad in my mind as places in the world where smoking in public is the norm but annoying for sure.
@intrepidhero DO NOT go to Croatia...
@killyourfm Yeah I may have been thinking specifically of eastern europe....

@killyourfm @intrepidhero

My mind always goes first: WHY!! πŸ‘€

One other is continuation mistakes in movies and TV-series

@killyourfm @intrepidhero

We were in Canada at Lake Louise once, hiking up from that beautiful glacial lake. High above (!) already we heard a woman down in a canoe begin to sing opera (no idea what.)

It went on FOREVER, and I can't imagine how many people heard her from that natural amphitheater.

We've never forgotten it. I just can't...

Washington State Park created this playlist for those people:

@negative12dollarbill @intrepidhero @killyourfm someone should make a playlist like this for the people who blast music at the bus station for no reason. put all the same songs on it.

@negative12dollarbill @intrepidhero @killyourfm *cough* that's Washington DNR

Parks was never that funny

This was one of my favorite parts of recently visiting Japan: No one is blaring music or their phone conversation from their phone. What a polite, civilized society!

@negative12dollarbill @intrepidhero @killyourfm also works for BART, the bus, your bicycle, the street corner outside the bodega, etc.

uuggghhh one time when I was with a day hospital for teenagers, we were staying out near the mountains, it was great, autumn actually looked like autumn.
we went for a stroll around this really nice little lake, but one of the other kids decided to absolutely fucking blare ed sheeran and other trash through his bluetooth speakers, and no one said anything against it.
i was so mad i went wayyy ahead of the main group in order to not hear it.
@rotbrain @intrepidhero That sounds like a living nightmare to me.
