I find retailers that don't accept cash to be very, very annoying. Since I am very hesitant to use a card at a store for a whole bunch of reasons, a store that won't take cash is a store that is effectively off-limits to me.

I reserve the class of "very, very annoying" for business that do truly annoying things. Like harass their employees, create nuisances for their neighbors. Or which support the current executive administration. That sort of thing.

"Smug and dystopian" seems to be a better description of the the new breed of cashless retailers.

Fortunately now - a very short-lived breed.

I don't call business that behave that way "annoying". I call them "abusive".
