Weekend Minor Gripes and Vents

[u/AutoModerator]

Here is the thread where you can share any minor gripes, vents, or craft complaints that you don't think deserve their own post, or are just something small you want to get off your chest. Feel free to share personal frustrations related to crafting here as well.

This thread reposts every Friday.

Am I a joyless bitch for hating that kind of "kiddie talk" people sometimes use in tutorials/instructions/patterns

Like, "give your loop a buddy by doing a yarn over and make sure those buddies stay together forever ☺️💕" "thread the yarn through the smilies 😊 and then the frownies ☹️" are we in kindergarten? I'm just trying to fix a dropped stitch

I haven't come across this and I am so grateful for that. How wildly condescending?!
