What annoys you about camping / campers / camping websites?

I've been active both on here and on a couple camping forums including the ForestRiverForum and PopupPortal (when we had our popups).

There are a few things that really grind my gears.

1. Its not a "hack". Neat, you put a light under your cabinet. Thanks for showing us, I bet someone else will see that and do the same. But its not a "hack". Its a sticky backed light. Thats what they are for. Same for any other "hack". A big one with popups was putting skirting around the bunk ends, and using below it for concealed storage. Again, neat idea, thanks for sharing, but you aren't an "elite life hacker", your just some putz who put some skirting on his trailer.

2. The whole "DW" "DS" "DH". I've NEVER called my wife "Dear Wife", and is it really that difficult to just type "wife" or "son" ? This one seems super prevalent both on mommy blogs and camping sites. Why? Its incredibly obnoxious.

3. Why does everyone in the RVing community feel they have to start some sort of blog or youtube channel to share everything with people? Yes, I follow a few RVing people on youtube and watch their channels, and youtube keeps recommending other people to me. The worst offenders of these are the people that just sit and talk in front of the camera for half an hour and never even actually show you anything...they just want to hear themselves talk. Does anyone actually watch this drivel?

Ok, now as far as actually camping and being at a campground...

1. Whats with new campers and the intense amount of outdoor lighting on them? Yeah, I have some rope lights and some goofy flamingo lights we put up when we're staying somewhere more than a few nights. But in the last few years campers are getting all these damned blue lights all over them that are super bright. Can I please sit at my campsite without it looking like the aurora borealis is coming from next door?

2. I want to kick your stupid yappy dog that doesn't even shut up so hard in the ass that I'll be walking around wearing it like a slipper.

3. Yes, I realize I'm 6'4", extremely hairy, and closely resemble the cardboard sasquatch that advertises beef sticks at the gas station. But I don't bite. So don't spend your entire trip staring at me and my family from your site and never saying a word or replying when I wave. I have beer and meat, please come to my site. I'm like the wicked witch, except I won't cook you, I'll just feed you and get you drunk.

Seriously, whats up with people being afraid of socializing with new people at the campground? I would LOVE to make some camper friends. None of my friends will go camping.

Last Halloween we were passing out candy, with this cooking over the fire behind us.

I had at least 50 people say "Oh wow, look at that!" and I would say "we have more than we can possibly eat. Please, come by after trick or treat is over and bring a side! everyone is welcome!" And not a single person took me up on it. I AM BUT ONE MAN, AND THAT WAS 10LBS OF MEAT!
