The one that pisses me off more than any other is the stupid animations and fake meters that tax software uses. They throw up this animation of a magnifying glass searching through your tax return as if it is actually doing anything. Ugh, it infuriates me so damn much.

Quick tip, if any website you're using has a blatently fake load animation like that, they're usually making you wait on purpose to get you "invested" and will then bait and switch with a paywall
