Things that annoy me part three

Feeling petty today, here are a few more things that have been bugging me.

Pitbull owners

Breed bans suck, and the public perception of pits as dangerous dogs is wrong, they are no more dangerous than any other dog, yes, we get it, shut the hell up already, you got a cute picture of your pitbull cuddling something? Great! Put that shit on the internet for us all to look at, but for cryin' out loud leave the sarcastic "Vicious pitbull" comments off of it.
There is a person in my neighborhood who has no less than four bumpers stickers on their car supporting pitbulls, I have never met the man, so I can only assume he has a full beard and long unkempt hair, shops at Whole Foods, and smells vaguely of "herbs".

Pitbull
He is a not very good rapper, he also annoys me, though to my knowledge he is not widely considered dangerous, unless you find partying and lists of foreign cities unsettling.
I want to emphasize that my dislike only extends to his music, he seems like a fun guy who is very happy doing what he does, and I can't hate on that too much.

Drivers who stop to let me cross when they don't have to

I know, I am complaining about something nice, let me explain: I am on my bike at an intersection with neither lights, stop sign, or crosswalk, there is a line of about four cars coming, once they pass I should be clear to cross. Almost without fail the last car decides to be nice and stop to let me cross, they aren't turning, just waiting. The problem is I don't know they aren't turning, I must wait for them to come to a complete stop and be sure they aren't going to turn without signalling (which some do) this process takes longer than it would have if they had just kept on going, and now I must feel indebted to this person for doing something nice, which actually ended up having a detrimental effect on my trip anyway. Sometimes the delay is enough that the hole in traffic fills up from one side or another, an I have to wait again too, that is the worst.

Naked babies
Pictures of them on the internet anyway, folks, your baby is probably pretty cute, we know this, but I don't want to see its ass on my Facebook feed. It is also considered poor taste to post nude pictures of people at any age in which they have agency, so why is it okay with the baby?
And no I am not going to put a picture up here, not putting "naked baby" in my Google image search history thank you very much.
