When a character in a movie starts losing their mind and are acting weird.
When a skirt turns out to be shorts.
Street tires on a truck.
Large tattoos.
YouTube in general taking over all answers on the web. I'd much rather just read the answer than have to go through a 10 min video.
But on that topic...
- Watch to the end
- Over energetic "what's up youtube! Welcome back"
- Before we get to the video...
I respect the few YouTube folks out there that write a blog post (on their own website!) for each video. The text based web has always been the ultimate reference.
A handful of people. That’s why we can’t have nice things, because a handful of people always have to ruin it for everyone else.
In a fiction movie or book, when a character says, "you can't make this stuff up."
Breaks the immersion for me immediately.

Stupid fat hobbit!
Remaking a movie or retelling a story or changing a political event or casting an unbelievable caste just because it fits today's politically correct views.
This thing happened so stop pretending it didn't or your historical piece is now fantasy or now it's completely unbelievable.
Stop remaking movies and changing the tone or message. Here's a novel idea for you film makers, you can make a new movie with a similar plot but with a different name, now we won't be going in with raised expectations.
When fan writing gets too edgy compared to its inspiration.
I played Pokemon Unbound, a widely-lauded ROM hack, the other week. Got to the first gym, a grass type one. Lo and behold, the gym leader is named Mirskle and he keeps it "foggy" inside his gym from "incense." He speaks like a total stoner and looks like this:

Got bombarded by an obnoxious number of weed jokes. Sorry, I just can't.
Just beat that gym yesterday and I enjoyed it, to each their own
lol, this is awesome.
Gatekeeping. Anyone who tells you that "that's not how it's done" or " we don't do it that way" or otherwise cramps your style just because they do it differently, or better, or with more expensive tools or materials, is an arse.
I have been put off so many hobbies because other people just have to suck the enjoyment out of it. Now that I am older and more sure of myself, I tend not to join the communities related to my hobbies because people are dicks; I just do what I enjoy, how I enjoy it.
This is the kind of thing that ruins ham radio for me, and I think a big part of why a lot of people who are interested in HF band stay on CB radio and work outlaw stations instead. The FCC mostly turns a blind eye to those who aren't causing interference, and you don't have to listen to angry 300 year old sad hams tell you all the silly things they believe you're doing wrong.
_ (they're also usually wrong because they're usually ignoring some change in regulation or technology)_
This is why I could never enjoy Python.
"That's not pythonic"
should just reply "it is now :)" to asses who say something like that
It annoys me when people don't at least try to explain the advantages of language features. Like, there are some real advantages to writing "pythonic" Python, but if someone doesn't know then it's better to tell them why this other way rocks and is fucking cool and also happens to be considered best practice.
Also, sometimes you just have to do things in a non-pythonic way. PEP 8 literally says that a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, which the pythonic nuts should hold as gospel. Some people take the pythonic thing WAY too seriously.
This is a big one for me too. Usually in professional context. As long as the task is completed correctly at the end, please don't tell me how other people have done it halfway through. It's just going to throw me off and slow me down.

Pretty vague question
How about people who complain about every single thing. Movie trailer doesn't give much information? "Well, how can I know if I wanna see it if I don't know anything about it?" Movie trailer gives a lot of information? "What's the point in seeing it now that the trailer gave away the whole plot?"
Politics inserted into places and times nobody was talking about it.
Or people ascribing a political or ideological context to something that doesn't really have anything to do with it.
"This movie is too political correct" Just because Finn was black.
"This anime isn't feminist enough"
"Rimworld is sexist"
True, that's the other side of it. It's like I'm literally not allowed to take a break. I have to stay outraged and screaming 24x7.
Pointless lies. Motivation is pretty obvious in a lot of cases.

Ask your partner to trim their nails first.
Or at least lick it first.
Stupidity!
Profanity. I was brought up in a household where discussion was encouraged. Profanity was seen as the inability to form good arguments. I guess it was ingrained in me.
Fuck that shit.
What the fuck??
Haha gottem!
