Lol, this. Chief, give me the damn zen projects, stop asking which animal you would be if you were one (well, hate to burst your bubble, buddy, but...) and getting offended at every answer.
Or when they ask if you prefer mac and cheese or hte spagheti...Lol, this. Chief, give me the damn zen projects, stop asking which animal you would be if you were one (well, hate to burst your bubble, buddy, but...) and getting offended at every answer.

thats why i have two games... :i cry every time: :/
when villagers can move right next to a bridge, but when i go to put a bridge even further away from another house, the game tells me no. isabel, you work for meeeeeee. let me make my own bad decisions. maybe ill learn something.
diving, the idea is neat but the mechanics are just annoying
looking for furniture in the HH Showcase and every house is just princess, harvest, mermaid, egg and sweet furniture (THE PASTELS, THEY BURN!), this is also relavent to all those Kawai Desu dream towns.
Inconsiderate house placement

Things in ACNL that make me cringe:
>I redid my town path today since I wanted to build a cafe. I found the perfect spot for it, I just needed to build a third bridge and place the cafe right in front of the bridge, it would look perfect. I built the bridge, then got ready to put the cafe in and realized.. a bridge in 2 squares wide, a cafe is 5 squares wide. It wouldn't match up :/
>Paula
>Bad turnip prices

The most cringe-worthy aspect of the game for me is the weird/random rules that are hard to find out and understand, let alone explain to the casual observer (meaning the way I am playing right now is technically good, such as dropping my plan to sell stuff at ReTail in order to run an errand that has me dashing all over town in order to increase my friendship level.. but just looks nonsensical).
The complicated "rules" and many logical inconsistencies make sharing the fun so much harder than it should be. Instead of just enjoying things, I end up bogged down discussing sizes of fish shadows compared to measurement shown, for example - larger squid shadow vs smaller horse mackeral despite the latter being actually longer. There are so many random things that get nothing but confused reactions from people who aren't familiar with animal crossing. And as they try to make sense of the clearly nonsensical, I end up cringing at the silliness of much of the game. The inconsistent logic of game mechanics is something I find annoying anyway, as there are just so many "moving parts" to keep track of, which could easily be simplified if the developers chose. That wouldn't have to take anything away from the fun - just make many aspects more intuitive and user friendly.
That said, that nonsensical silliness *is* a rather large part of the appeal for me and I'm sure many others. I just wish it wasn't quite such a steep learning curve for beginners, or so baffling for non-players!
Edit : grammar and clarification.

Some of the little gender and heteronormativity things bug me a little...like how if you say your name is 'cool' you're a boy but a girl's name is 'cute', boys are told they'll get 'an awesome house' and girls that they will get a 'sweet little place' and so on. Especially when Kapp'n insists on saying how 'cute' I am and how I've gotten cuter when we're sailing. Sir, I am apparently a human child and you are a turtle spirit thing, don't make it weird.
It also makes me cringe how some of the dialogue choices are rude when you tell a villager you don't want to sell or trade something. Like, I love you, villager, but you can't have a house full of only fishtanks, cicadas and assorted fossil parts.

I give people random TBT.
That happened to me.Some of these posts have been making me laugh so hard! (With you, not at you.)
What makes me cringe the most is when you're having a WiFi visit with someone, and you're trying to type a message as quickly as possible because meanwhile, your mayor is just staring blankly at theirs, and you don't want them to think you're just being creepy or refusing to leave their town. There really should be a "hold on, I'm typing" emote that happens automatically.
It's creepier when you have that big eye face with eyelashes at the bottom.
I was typing, but I made a typo, so I erased the message, but as I was re-typing I realised my villager looked creepy so I split the message in two and posted half and half.

I met one once, they begged and said they'd give me a black rose (really?), but I forgot to block them. So I met them again. ;-;

I thought there could be 4-5....

GETTING PEOPLE'S REALLY UNCUTE VILLAGERS FROM THEIR VOID! It's the curse of streetpassing, really. It's happened on all three occasions that I've had void villagers slip in! The first time was Jambette, and it happened at the same time I had Zucker in my tent! The more recent ones I obtained also had junk for furniture in their houses.
Also, villagers you want pwps from that ping you but instead ask for the most expensive thing in your pocket in exchange for a porta potty or something extremely cheap.

LOL I have that face and she always looks traumatized or really creepy. I feel like such a freak when people enter my town and are like "hey" and then I spend forever typing something in response.

I still cringe from this one thing that happened to me on ACC last year (just remember it).
There was this person who literally was trying to copy a town they saw in the dream suite. Landscaping, the PWPs, the houses (inside and out?) and the villagers.
I had this villager moving out my cycle town and I posted it on there and that person adopted him. I was happy that the villager was adopted and not voided.
Then that very next day, that same person made a thread about landscaping and wanted help from others to help them make their town look exactly like the one they seen in the dream suite, they even had a link to the town's dream address from YouTube (?).
Few days later, I had another villager moving out and that same person showed up to adopted him and before I reply I went to the town they were trying to copy and found that villager I had moving out and the other one that was adopted by that person was there too!
I felt bad, really bad. So I ended up giving the villager to someone else. ;----;
not to mention! They sold the villager I gave them the first time! After I said don't resell them!
