I learned HTML in high school and then graduated to CSS. It’s a great way to exercise my mind. But it’s frustrating as hell.
I always try to find a less frustrating way to look at things.
It can be frustrating when you’re put in a category with others. Women do get lumped together in this reductive grouping, and you think, ‘Gosh, that rarely happens with the boys.’ I’m sure people don’t say to Eddie Redmayne, ‘How do you feel about Andrew Garfield?’
Am I a liberal or conservative? I’m neither. Like most Americans, I find politics very frustrating. Like most Americans, I’d like to hear from politicians the facts. That is what drives me.

When you have a new coach, a couple new guys, and a young team, the frustrating part throughout the year is the up and down.
If it’s not a high-concept movie, if you’re not having outer space people come down and blow stuff up, then there’s a pool of 15 to 20 male actors and 10 to 15 female actors. And if you don’t get one of them, you really need to reexamine your budget and the story you’re trying to tell. It’s frustrating.
What is frustrating is being told that no matter how hard I’ve worked, it counts less than my appearance. Although if you’re not considered conventionally attractive, that also becomes an issue: you know, you’re a feminist because you couldn’t get a man.
I’ve been to almost every country in the world, and the most frustrating thing for me has been that my schedule has always been so busy that there’s so little time before and after performances to explore where I’m visiting.

It’s been tricky trying to deal with managing my eating, having so many people around me and so many eyes on me, it’s pushed me to do more extreme things which is frustrating for me.
ECW was the most fun for me artistically. And then, WWE, it was also very fun, but that was part of it. It was also a very stressful, monotonous schedule. There was a lot of politics, adjusting to that, and I am not a politician, and I don’t play those games. So that was very frustrating for me as well.
Yes, and many times it’s frustrating, because I’m simply part of the show, and I’m not in the creative end of it, who goes out with detectives and tries to find these things out.

I think it can be quite frustrating at times for anyone playing out of position, but you’ve just got to deal with it.
People assume that a lot of pop artists don’t write their songs. That, for me, is super frustrating because I think it detracts from some of the art and some of the craft of what we do. I’m at the helm of it, and I think that is what people don’t see.
In ‘D.A.R.Y.L.’ there was a part where I had to freeze to death, and they didn’t even use it. It can get kind of frustrating. But I don’t regret that I decided to become an actor. Besides, if I don’t like it at any time, I can stop.
I’m sure it’s one of the most frustrating aspects of human experience for all of us, that when we tell someone who’s hurt us that they’ve hurt us, they tend to react with anger because they feel guilty, and we know we also get angry when we feel guilty.
It’s frustrating when you don’t feel like you help the team like you should, but at the end of the day there’s going to be ups and downs and it’s how you react.

It’s just so frustrating when you’re in a supporting role because you only get to express a part of yourself.
I don’t think there’s room in video games for people to bring an ego. It’s very frustrating for any actor to have someone who’s a celebrity take over your place. Like the ‘Uncharted’ film, they’re trying to find someone to play Nathan Drake. And it’s like, why do they not think of us? We do this.
When you’re not winning in your last couple of years, it gets frustrating because where’s your motivation?
I believe that love between people is the greatest life-giving force in the world. It’s intensely frustrating and inevitably makes a fool of you, but you can’t stop going back to it, and it’s pretty much the defining experience of a human being.
I think women, we are very interesting. We have a lot to say, and sometimes it’s frustrating how all the lead parts are for men.
Nothing is as frustrating as arguing with someone who knows what he’s talking about.

When I posted the 8,500 words on what Twitter should be, I wanted to make clear this wasn’t a vision statement for the future. What was so frustrating about it is that’s what it should’ve been already.

There’s nothing more frustrating than when you hear a track and you can never find out what it is.
When something’s ending, you go through so many phases, and it can be frustrating. But once you’re out on the other side, it’s like you can really see all the crazy phases you went through.
My favorite experience, in general, probably was the ‘Little Shop’ experience, which probably was terrifying, frustrating, and exhilarating and amazing, but because it was the first, that was the one where I watched the show just launch itself for the first time and thought, ‘Oh my God, I’m going to have a career.’
Sometimes, when you have someone behind the counter who’s supposed to assist you and help you out, just being completely bored and uninterested – sometimes it’s a little bit frustrating, you know?
The fact that my mother was on television every week while I was young was occasionally awkward, and often frustrating.
I think it would be frustrating having to do things you wouldn’t want to do, having to make movies you didn’t like.
One thing I love about America is that I’m not boxed in by my upbringing here. England is still so class-based that there are certain roles that I just won’t go for. I’m a middle-class boy and I won’t go for the scruffy working-class role, which is frustrating, and here I can play anything.
I fought for a long time on ‘Battlestar’ to let my hair grow out. It was very frustrating because every single person on the show was changing their hair. It was not fair.
It was frustrating when the managers would change; you’d go to the bench and try to work your way back into the team. But it makes you stronger.
