If there was one good thing to come out of the pandemic, it was that it made us all the more appreciative of all that is good in our lives.

No one ever appreciated the importance of friends or family more, having to be kept apart from each other for months, or the little things which bring us joy, which we made sure to keep doing even as pandemic restrictions were lifted.

Of course, being alone with our thoughts for such a long time also resulted in our reflecting on things in our lives, or in the world in general, which we were less than happy about.

Not to mention the all-important realization that life is short and precious, and we don't have time to waste our thoughts on some things.

Redditor SpicyHashbrowns was curious to hear all the things people have made their effort not to waste a single, minute thought on, leading them to ask:
"What is something you no longer have patience for?"

Off The Clock Means OFF THE CLOCK!

"Working outside of work hours."

"I used to go above and beyond, now I only put in what is required."

"Life is too short to live only to work."- Chesterfieldcat

"The working world."

"My life doesn’t revolve around working here and it never will."

"It will never be a part of my identity."

"I come in, do the job, make money, go home."

"Don’t expect me to come to all the work happy hours so I can pretend how much I love working here."- nuclearsalt

Some Things Just Don't Get A Free Pass

"Sh*tty people getting a pass 'because they're family'."- cgulash

Say What You Mean, Not What You Feel

"Having to guess what people REALLY mean by something they said."

"I take everything people say at face value now and don't replay conversations in my head to find out the real meaning anymore."

"Be passive-aggressive if you want to but talk to me like an adult if you really have a problem."- WateredDownSalt

EYES ON THE ROAD!

"People who text and drive."

"You're driving a giant piece of metal propelled by explosive liquid."

"Pay attention."- MasterfulNothasie

The Only Life That Should Concern You Is Your Own

"People and groups of people that only talk about other people."- Turf98

"People who can’t mind their fucking business and are always worried about what other people are doing."

"If it doesn’t effect you, f*ck off."

"It’s literally free."- wackwackwackjpg

Some People Didn't Mind Social Distancing

"People invading my personal space."- Mighty-Foreskin

Influence Can Be Dangerous

"Anything that has “influencer” in it."- chemistcarpenter

Indoor Voices People...

"Streamers screaming, losing their sh*t, breaking things, and having tantrums."

"I used to think this was so funny now I just can't stand it; I can't even watch a streamer if I notice they're not using their normal talking voice." - Reddit

Taking Responsibility Is A Sign Of Maturity

"People who constantly blame others for the situation they are in."- SuvenPan

Time Is Precious And Shouldn't Be Wasted

"Waiting on people who are constantly late to plans."

"I will wait 15 minutes then excuse myself."- Dabbles-In-Irony

There's Multi-Tasking, And Then There's Just Being Rude...

"People being on their phone while in a conversation with you."

"Seriously."

"Put your phone away!"- rosieblinkstime

It Takes So Much More Effort To Be Nasty...

"Bad manners, unkindness and general rudeness."

"It costs nothing to be a nice person and from someone who works in a customer-facing industry, attitudes, sadly, appear to be getting worse."

"It really makes me cross."- Bellamiles85

At Least They're Being Transparent

"Medicine commercials with worse side-effects than the thing being cured."- mrbbrj

Wasting our time and thoughts about things that we know can only bring us down is simply no way to get through life.

It's essential to live our lives by taking the present moment for what it is: a present.

Samuel L. Jackson Roasts Red Carpet Reporter To Shreds After She Tries To Do Impression Of Him

Samuel L. Jackson is one of those actors that people just love to impersonate. He's had so many memorable roles with countless quotable lines, and his personality is nothing short of fascinating.

But people who attempt to impersonate him always get some aspect of the impression wrong, whether it's the volume, the enunciation, the intonation, or just the overall demeanor. Even Jamie Foxx, who's an impressive impersonator of a wide range of stars, has not impressed Jackson with his impersonation of him.
