Two things that bug me

Vaping, it's cool I guess, you gotta keep that oral fixation fed, personally I chew on straws, but mand don't fool yourself, it still isn't good for you, it normalizes smoking, and it looks like you are sucking on a dildo/lightsaber/lightsaber dildo every ten minutes.
Like, okay, better than cigarettes sure, no argument there, and if doing that is the only thing keeping you from them then great, personally most of the people I know who vape hadn't smoked tobacco before taking it up, so I feel like they are headed in the wrong direction their.
Also, still looks dumb.


Doctor Who.

is Doctor his first name? Did he go through a Gallifreyan PHD program? If so what is he a doctor of? Time? Space? Bullshit? Probably bullshit.

In all honesty I like Doctor Who, the fans are annoying dorks though, and I say that as someone who used to run a game store, believe me I know from dorks.

Perhaps it was just time, perhaps the slightly higher production values of the new series managed to get people's attention during the perfect time that no other interesting sci-fi was happening, perhaps I have simply underestimated the ongoing impact the older series has on culture in general, but lord people make their lives about the damn show. David Tennant has much to answer for but cannot be entirely blamed.
I see things pretty regularly in my feed about it, usually picture memes with life lessons on them, apparently the only way these folks learn things like "Be interested in stuff" or "Don't murder things" is if a British man tells them while running away, or towards, some dude dressed in a gigantic rubber suit who wants to replace the atmosphere with gasoline or something.

In short, the above are two things that irrationally bug me, make of it what you will
