OK, this thread tells me I've officially spent too long on this board 
and so will be moving on (to my work!) after this and returning to read later (hopefully much later!) but I just couldn't resist!
-Now, who is as infuriated by autocorrect on phones and tablets as I am? Seriously! I find it more of a nuisance than a help. I feel this irrational anger whenever it substitutes my words for its own choices, and I feel like asking it why it thinks it knows what I want to say better than I, the sayer? Can't it just give me the choices and if I don't pick one, just leave what I type as is? I want to get the people responsible for it in a room to explain to them that overriding my word-choices is incredibly arrogant.
-Some years ago, out of a job and wanting to make a living doing something I could tolerate, I tried to blog on some of those large, collective blog/article sites that run on adsense and similar passive income arrangements. Google then used to implement these algorithms every few weeks, it seemed, that would change how search results would appear, whether your article made it to page 1 of the results or 1000. And this would seriously affect the writers' revenue. It infuriated me to no end, because I found the changes abrupt and arbitrary, even though at that time I wasn't directly affected (still wasn't making any money on any articles, I was quite new). Not sure if Google still does that as often, as I stopped doing that a short while later.
-The same thing happens whenever I go to the supermarket and find that they have changed the usual arrangement of things (that I have mastered after lots of struggle!) and I now have to relearn where everything is all over again. I find such acts quite inconsiderate.
Thinking about type makes me realize why I react certain ways to certain things, because it is usually clear to me I'm being irrational or self-centered in my anger even if it's just a momentary feeling of annoyance (Because why would such decisions be made based on my needs/convenience if they serve some other big goal?) I guess I really hate whenever TE-seeming decisions seem to interfere with my routine, convenience or even to bull-doze me (as with autocorrect!). It could be FE, TI, SI or NE in me rebelling as in: FE-How inconsiderate...TI-I want to decide for myself what makes sense, thank you very much...SI-Don't interfere with my routine...or NE-Don't mess with my freedom/close my options.
I guess people may be infuriated by FE systems/decisions too, or those of any other function. However, it seems, rationally, that rebellion might be felt more against JE systems than any others.
