Everything. I'm 50 now, soon to be 51, and getting so very "GET OFF MY LAWN!!" 😡😡😡 grumpy about seemingly everything. I've got to learn to chill because the only Zen I'm harshing on is my own.
 
The English Pensions Authority wanting me to prove I was still alive or they would stop my pension, when I asked my Swedish doctor if he would be so kind as to fill out the form he replied "Not sure I can do that".....................................

Whenever I get mad I just take a look at our solar system, and I say to myself...

Oh yea. We're on a floating rock hurling thru space. And guess what? Soon enough it's not going to matter. I'll be gone. The earth has been here for billions of years. We are here for 100 years max. Then I go on with my day. 🙂
 
I find trying your best to isolate yourself from politics and issues around the world makes you happier. It's hard to get away 100% though. Trump is constantly on the news, and if it's not Trump, it's some other bad thing that the government or some corporation is doing. So much corruption in general in today's world. Right now the biggest thing on the news seems to be the SNC lavelin scandal.

It's one of the reasons I eventually want to live off grid, the further you are from general population the less these political things affect you. Like here in Canada the biggest threat right now to general population is mass immigration and sharia law. It's coming. Still have to be informed enough to take part of voting, and any petitions for the really bad stuff, but no point in being immersed into it since you can't change it.
 
As far as what is pissing me off, the snow banks on the main drag that connects to my street. It's freaking impossible to tell if cars are coming when at the stop sign and it's super dangerous. It's a school so add kids walking to the mix. It's a recipe for disaster.

Most of the streets are like that though. They should at very least go by every night and clear the areas that are perpendicular to stop signs, so people at the stop can see if cars are coming. Don't even need to remove the snow just push it further down the snow bank.

I realize the city is behind but at this point they should be caught up, it has not snowed for at least a week now.

They want to bring in millions of muslims over. Trudeau is very sympathetic towards muslims and puts them at a higher priority than anyone else to the point that lot of laws make exceptions for them.

Just google "Sharia Law Canada" and you'll find tons of articles and stories showing how close we really are. Europe has been facing this issue for a long time too, and it's going to start happening here because the government is allowing it.

Trudeau even suggests that it's compatible with democracy.

To make matters worse they passed a motion years back essentially making it illegal to not agree with sharia law and islamic state. Right now it's not really enforceable as far as I know since it's not a traditional law, but it's a start towards that direction. Wait till these people run and get elected. That's when shit will really hit the fan. We are already allowing ISIS members into Canada, it's a matter of time till they form government. At least in Syria, they are trying to fight them off. Here we are literally passing laws to help them achieve it.
 
The media's reporting. They've got a vendetta. Non-issues become the focal point, outrage over routine non-events, fearmongering, agitprop.

Unfortunately for them, we detect the lies, and their credibility is now in the toilet.
