Ah. OK then, I'd say english.
You mean regular english. Well, that explains everything.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

In English, the word English should always be capitalized.

The marketing email headers that sound very important.

And then when you go to unsubscribe you have to scroll thru 100 options on how to continue to receive emails before finding the button to unsubscribe completely.
I'm not who you think I am.

Automated systems that are super sensitive and get cut off at any background noise

Did you say "argumentative sisters that are super competitive and get cut off a tiny back loud boys"? Press 1 for yes

The email notification when someone mentions you doesn't include the content of their post :(
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Looks interesting, but my issue is primarily with calling the contact, not Whatsapping them.

stella dora cookie packages, once you pull the container out it's impossible to slide it back in  >:(
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Rookie mistake. Never pull it out all the way, unless you know it doesn't need to be put back.
Memories last forever, make them while you can.

On the subject of WhatsApp Pet Peeves:
- Not being able to add someone to a WhatsApp group without them being one of your contacts
- The only way to login to the Web App is by scanning a QR code

How do you get to the ones in the back then?

It's a skill you aquire. You pull it just enough to get the cookie, but without removing the tray. Honestly, it's rarely necessary, as once you're down to 4 cookies, you're most likely going to finish them.

My Whatsapp pet peeves:

-Being able to be added to a chat without permission and then if you leave it announces to the chat "So and so left the chat"
-The search function is awful
-Someone sends you a number via whatsapp you cant press on it and make a regular phone call, only a whatsapp call
