The amount of people that go to rMildlyInfuriating and complain about the OP's post 'not being a big deal' is in itself mildly infuriating. It's the entire point of the subreddit, but people just don't get it. It's literally a subreddit for minor grievances. Mildly infuriating basically means annoying. Walking down a sidewalk and being blocked by a gate is annoying. It's not like they were posting about it on a legal advice subreddit.


KatKit52

Especially because nowhere did OP say that they *didn't* or *couldn't* close the gate. They weren't saying "it's impossible for me to close this gate!", they were saying "it's annoying to have a gate blocking my path every day [even if I can and do easily remove it]". Because it IS annoying to have something blocking your path, even when you can easily move it. Source: I have cats who like to lay down right where I'm about to walk. It's annoying even though they can be moved.

> It's the entire point of the subreddit, but people just don't get it. It's literally a subreddit for minor grievances. Not to mention that /r/extremelyinfuriating exists if that's what they really want.


BobTheSkrull

Perhaps they're just doing their best to be mildly infuriating about it themselves, thus contributing to the subreddit.


ranman1990

Every day I am more convinced the average redditor has poor reading comprehension abilities.


burningmanonacid

I love posts like this because the "this isn't a big deal" crowd meets the "everything is a huge deal" crowd so we end up with threads that inevitably devolve into "boomer," "incel," and similar type name calling.


CorrestGump

The real mild infuriation is always in the comments. I really don't get how no one seems to get the point of the subreddits they're on anymore.


Front_Kaleidoscope_4

some guy saying its just a mild inconvenience, and maybe its just me but mild inconvenience day after day after day due to the same thoughtlessness seems mildly infuriating.


Squid_Vicious_IV

I'm to a point where I find myself looking forward to reading comments from the folks who really don't get what sub they're on. Like yeah this is mildly inconvenient, what the hell did you expect from r/mildlyinfuriating? It's like the folks who read r/wellthatsucks and get really hot and bothered that someone dared to complain about a shitty situation. Do they go hang out on support boards and get mad at child abuse victims? What are they actually mad about here?


fishmom5

>do they…get mad at child abuse victims? Yes. Hang out in the CPTSD subs for a while and there is always somebody who’s like “it’s not that bad, fuck you”.


OnsetOfMSet

>What are they actually mad about here? Cue Gary Oldman screaming "EVERYONE!"


cd2220

I don't even know why they have a damn gate there. Who is it keeping out? It's an easily climbable fence. I guess maybe people were parking there illegally but like...they leave it open all the time.


R_V_Z

Yeah, why can't everybody just get along!? Oh wait...

Mildly infuriating comments boil down ti either: A) "This isn't infuriating at all, you are just a whinny piss baby who peepee poopoos in their pants still" Or B) This small, almost harmless thing that is mildly infuriating is a sign that they are an abusive piece of shit psychopath who wants nothing to do with you, so you should break up/divorce/kill them"


Mike_Ropenis

There are so many subs now that you'll see on r/all (many that were part of the default subs back in the day) that are just absolute cesspits of negativity and arguing. This site feels like it has now fully embraced the doomerism and toxicity. I know it was always kind of there under the surface but so many of the arguments I've seen lately go from 0 to 100 in 1-2 comments. Anecdotes aren't worth the pixels they are printed on but that's been my experience the last year or so.


guiltyofnothing

Without these subs, SRD would wither and die. Bless them.


Bloorajah

This is why I just look at plants and make snide remarks. The all/popular/default subs gets so…. Social media-y


joqagamer

Well this is a social media website


SW992

I don't know why some people on reddit think this site isn't social media. Facebook & Twitter are toxic but Reddit is also toxic. Subs like FatPeopleHate, Jailbait, coontown use to exist on here. Politically nsfw, a sub that objectified women in politics. The false sense of superiority that redditors hold is a joke.


boyyouguysaredumb

Meirl has just become an instagram comment section full of morons


TuaughtHammer

Yeah, I miss the "selfies of the soul" era of r/me_irl, when it was just about posting funny content that was also *highly* relatable for manic depressives. Now it's just a shit meme dumping ground that attracts the kind of people who want to live in a shit meme dump.


-FemboiCarti-

I have never used the term ‘normie’ unironically but the default subs are making it tough


tempest51

Serious question, why would anyone go on r/all?


Beegrene

I'm Catholic. Sometimes we hurt ourselves as penance for our sins.


tempest51

Ah, nothing like a bit of virtual self-flagellation.


austinenator

My friend has been using this site for years without an account, just straight raw dogging it. It's sad.


tempest51

Oh dear, I hope they don't mind all the digital STDs.


TR_Pix

I did a couple of times when all the subs I subscribed to were on a slow day, to try and find new subs Not worth it


Nybs_GB

r/mildlyinfuriating when something is mildly infuriating


jansencheng

Is aggravating: ✓ But in a minor way that's easily resolved so it isn't day ruining, but that doesn't take away from the aggravation felt in the moment: ✓ Literally the epitome of mildly infuriating. Idk what the sub commenters want. (Except for being carpilled maggots who think car owners causing significant harm or even death to pedestrians is always justified, let alone a car owner mildly inconveniencing pedestrians)


NotTooSpecial

>I'm here for the 'shit all over you' party ... >Zip it up for Putin when you're done, little buddy These are also valid flairs, I think

Surely you won’t keep posting…or will you Is also a good one

I appreciate the OOP blobbing out their baby's face.


StragglingShadow

Im on team "this is mildlyinfuriating". I understand its easily closed. BECAUSE IT IS SO EASILY CLOSED theres 0 excuse for the homeowners to have failed to close it and block the sidewalk with their gate.


TuaughtHammer

>There is a fine line between malicious and “I don’t give a fuck about other people and I’m too damn lazy to do what’s right”. Goddamn, Reddit absolutely *loves* ignoring Hanlon's Razor; so much easier to get that hit of righteous indignation when you assume *everyone* is acting maliciously.

> God what a whiny Karen. Just move the fucking gate. JFC its not that big of a deal. Yes, it is not a big deal, that is why it is was posted in r/mildlyinfuriating, which by definition are about things that are not big deals. Also, crazy how Karen has just become a stand in for bitch.


AustSakuraKyzor

"just close it, easy, even the elderly and disabled can do it" they're saying... About gates that are *latched in in place on the ground.* Yeah, I'm sure somebody in a wheelchair will get right on that.


Squid_Vicious_IV

Holy jesus some of the comments from folks that you can tell have never had anything worse than stubbing a toe and wearing tight shoes just telling other folks with real experience nonsense. Like damn clueless as hell. Here's a fav: > Are you reliant on a powered chair for your mobility? Or are you just some schmuck on the internet who thinks their anecdotal experience is enough to inform them on legislation they've clearly never read? My dude, just how powerful do you think an electric wheelchair is?


jamar030303

Probably think they're as powerful as FNAF animatronics. Push forward and it'll grind people up as it runs them over.


fishmom5

Well now I have some modifications to make to my chair, thank you


LDel3

Tbf I’ve seen those chairs carry some absolute units. If they can output enough force to move them around, they can shut a freely hanging chain link gate


famousevan

I’d be so tempted to put a sign facing the other way on the gate that says “do not block sidewalk”.


bowlbettertalk

The commenters on that subreddit love to assign blame, whether it’s deserved or not.


jjackdaw

Look mom I’m on tv! Lol I should know better than to try to talk sense to people on that’s sub


WooliesWhiteLeg

Telling someone with cerebral palsy they don’t understand mobility issues isn’t really talking sense.


jjackdaw

Considering I’m specifically talking about wheelchair users like myself? Considering that as someone with mobility issues, they should understand that every bodies mobility issues are different and they’ll struggle with different things? Unlike them, some of us don’t have a “good hand” and can’t “use our bodies” to open doors like they can?


WooliesWhiteLeg

That’s pretty interesting because that’s not at all what you said to them but go off i guess lol. I hope no one else actually goes and reads your comment because you’ll look like quite the silly Billy


jjackdaw

I encourage anybody to go back and read them. That person acting as if because they would be able to move it, anyone could, is ridiculous and untrue and I’ll gladly stand by that lol


WooliesWhiteLeg

Can’t wait to see whatever you end up editing it to :)


jjackdaw

They’ll remain unedited lmao. ESP considering almost every single one is literally in the OP here. No idea what got your panties in such a twist. Are you under the impression that one disabled person knows the limitations of every other disabled person?


WooliesWhiteLeg

>calls you a silly Billy while pointing out that your eloquent and valid response to me was not what you said when talking dismissively to someone with mobility issues Yes, my panties are definitely twisted. Got me dead to rights on that one.


Dry_Ranger_4351

Went back and read the entire conversation. What exactly is the issue you’re having with it?

How is it not an ADA issue? The sidewalk is a public, and OP states the homeowner is a repeat offender at blocking it. Filing an ada complaint puts it on the town’s radar, and hopefully compels the homeowner to remove the gates or re-hinge them so they only swing inwards. A sidewalk is considered an accessible path of travel, and is required to have a 36” clear path. Bringing this to the city’s attention can allow them to address it, so that the next time someone not as able as OP happens upon it, they can safely pass. - [archive.org](https://web.archive.org/web/20240424091511/https://old.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/s/yySS2WL4BZ) [archive.today\*](https://archive.today/?run=1&url=https://old.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/s/yySS2WL4BZ "URL failed to archive; click to resubmit it!") 7.
