You know when you have to enter your credit card information on web forms ? It's always fun when you think you did it exactly correct, and the form rejects your entries for some really obscure reason. Computers are OCD to the max, for sure.

(37,457 posts)I'm forgetting exactly why some of my entries have been rejected, but I was like WTF. So... I did it all over again to their precise standards. I've learned, for instance, to type my address a certain way, because my old way was rejected too often, despite it being 100% correct. Same thing for spaces in the CCN, they almost always reject that, so I just type the whole long damn number.
First world annoyance, truly.

Not accepting the +4 on your zip code
Not accepting every character and symbol you can make on a computer keyboard when creating a new password (as if they want a "Less Strong" password from you)
Not allowing you to copy and paste into text fields
That's all I can remember at the moment that are quite annoying
