It isn't something "cool" to show off. There's a difference between being proud of and comfortable with what you are and being show-offy. If that makes sense.

It does indeed, and very well-said. In my experience people who flaunt being bi often aren't, but it's truly horrible to be alienated or even beaten and attacked for being something other than straight. That's one thing that annoys me about anime. I've pretty much never seen one that dealt with that realistically.

And yeah, I mostly meant psychosis, which people feebly try to emulate to be cool and interesting (ebil squirels are gonna take over teh world LOL!!!!). Being aware that your compulsions don't make any sense is part of why OCD sucks, and they don't get any enjoyment out of doing them, they just feel they have to, and people don't understand that.

Oh, another thing that ticks me off is when you get comments on Devart that say like "cool lol" or "cute!". Just... blah.

I'm on kageri's train of people hate.

Ah, that reminds me! Someone just let their dog take a dump in the pet store that I work at, and never notified any of the employees. All of a sudden, I saw like, "Ew, what's the horrible poo-poo smell?" and lo and behold! I don't think I need to go any further.

"I'm flyin' on a saucer! Wooo!"

Sorry, just had to do that. XD

I hate it when on DA people don't comment after they fave something. I have a friend on DA that NEVER comments on my work, yet he faves everything. :wiltshock:

I also am annoyed when I really like something, (like the band Crazy Frog) when many other people seem to complain and bash about it. Give those very special things some love!

The new CN bumpers...RETARDED. CN doesn't even seem to know that they suck. The realistic (realistic Foster's bus for example) bumpers were a lot better and more worth watching. But these new ones...they're just TORTURING those poor kids! :(

Wanna know what ticks me off? Guys who flirt with you and in the next breath says they never did. Those jerks.

Howard 03-05-2007 07:34 AM

I hate people who cut in front of me on the road.:terrence:

Jabberwocky 03-05-2007 11:53 AM

I hate when I only own two pairs of pants, and the one pair I like has been dragged across and back every circle of hell. I've had to repair them, like SIX times! Just this year! They keep getting snagged on a random springs sticking out of the couch or my dog's nails rip them or my little brothers do Lewis Carroll knows what to them but the end result is more destruction and I think pretty soon they're going to be nothing but six inches of corduroy and a bunch of patches. That's what babysitting out of the kindness of your heart gets you, children! It gets you messed up pants!

Wahhh I really like these pants but they're so accident prone ahhhhh I feel like if I wear them outside I'll get run down by a snow plow. Poor pantalones.

And also, Nirvana's cover of The Man Who Sold the World bites.

UGH. I seriously knew a guy who would say stuff literally THAT stupid because he was a MAJOR faker of psychosis. He told me in a serious manner "I'm like, sooooo afraid of penguins because they always try to take my stash!" and I just looked at him like he was an idiot and said "Umm... you got that off of a t-shirt..." He did that stuff ALL THE TIME and I got so sick of it.

THANK YOU. As a waitress I can say that there are EXTREMELY rude people out there, and they're not afraid of making jerks of themselves in public. I HATE whenever they're not happy with the food, but then say no when I offer to fix it or take it back, and then not tip me because somehow it was all my fault that they weren't happy. :terrence: I think they do that because they either a) planned it all along and were actually happy with their food but didn't want to tip or b) are masochists that feel like they're somehow better than others because they think they're doing everyone a favor by sacrificing their happiness. Just let me fix the freaking food.

I also hate whenever people walk out without paying. That's SO dishonest and rude.

One time a woman ordered food to-go, and then angrily called back saying she didn't get any of her side orders. We apologised and said if she came back we'd have them ready for her. After she hung up, we couldn't find her ticket, so we called back and asked what they were. The woman's daughter answered the phone and was REALLY nice and said "Uh, no, I think we got all of our side orders here..."

When the woman came to pick up her side orders that we "forgot", we told her what happened. She turned BRIGHT red and said "Oh I'm so embarrassed!!!!" and quickly left. She was trying to get free food! 8D AAAAHAHAHAHAHA JUSTICE IS SERVED!!!!!!!!

P.S. Jabberwocky I have a pair of pants like that. They're so full of holes it's not even funny. The tiniest rip turns into something I can stick my hand through, and in some places they're so worn out it's just little white strings going across! They're the best though.

Howard 03-05-2007 02:37 PM

I'll tell ya what I get tiffed at:

Food servers at restaraunts that make my eating experience miserable (but I still tip).;)

Partymember 03-05-2007 03:01 PM

there's good waitresses and bad ones at every restaurant. For instance, we have Kym (excellent) and Mel (shocking).

Kym:
Takes orders quickly
Gets orders right
doesn't DROP things

Mel:
FORGETS TO WAIT ON PEOPLE
Filches fried shrimp from plates
drops things...a lot

we call having a bad night a "Mel-down" LOL

Jabberwocky 03-05-2007 04:42 PM

Goofus and Gallant!


I hate my mom trying to let my three year old brother use my laptop like it's a toy.

I agree. Though I think I'm one of the good ones at the restaurant where I work... my dad has owned it for all of my life, so I literally grew up watching and learning how to waitress! There's one woman named Mary that I'd definetely NOT want as a waitress, though! I feel really sorry for her customers!

I'm proud of me - in my several years of waitressing, I've only dropped ONE thing! And I don't steal food off of plates lol 8D

And I have a pretty good attitude (unlike Mary).



Speaking of computers, Jabberwocky, I get angry whenever my dad downloads a bunch of programs on MY computer that I bought with my own $$$. He's like "You'll like them! Plus, I always use them!"

Then I have to go through deleting stupid useless programs that he downloaded and has NEVER used again. Bleah.

Howard 03-07-2007 07:20 AM

Here is another one: Parents who cannot control their children at an event (sports, or a show). They climb all over the bleachers, or seats in front of you and around you. Makes me want to punch the parent!:frankiemad:

scary_dream 03-07-2007 09:27 AM

It's not just events! I was in H & R Block once and there were these two kids running and screaming up and down the hallway for the ENTIRE time their mom was with the agent. She only told them to settle down once, and then after that she ignored them completely.

You couldn't even talk over them, you had to yell because they were screaming so loud. :frankiemad: GRRRR

Jabberwocky 03-07-2007 11:39 AM

I especially like it when they bring 'em to totally nawt for childrens movies. I hope your two-year-old thoroughly enjoyed War of the Worlds.

scary_dream 03-07-2007 07:32 PM

It doesn't bother me so bad about what the kids are seeing (I was brought up on horror/thriller movies of all kinds and I turned out pretty normal), but that the younger kids usually don't understand what is going on and get bored, thus making them fidget, talk, and otherwise disrupt the movie for others. My motto is if you don't think the kid will understand what's going on, hire a babysitter, see a different movie, or just don't go.

I won't even get into the subject of screaming babies in theaters... Ok, yeah, maybe you REALLY wanted to see a movie and absolutely COULDN'T find a babysitter, so you took the baby, but for the love of pete if the baby gets upset and screams, PLEASE LEAVE THE THEATER!!!

Speaking of which, I hate it when people won't shut up in theaters or throw candy/popcorn at people in front of them. FREAKING GROW UP ALREADY!!!!! It's why I am usually against seeing PG-13 movies in theaters... you get a lot of kids who think it's absolutely hilaaaaaaarrriooooouuussss.

Yeah, that's the reason why I try to sit way in the back of the theater if at all possible.

When I saw Finding Nemo in theaters, during one of the dramatic suspenseful moments there was this kid who "whispered" to his mom, "HE'S NOT REALLY DEAD!!!". I mean sure, I could have figured that out myself, but SHUT UP KID. >:[

Plus there were a lot of really tiny kids crying/screaming at certain parts in the Spongebob movie (DON'T JUDGE ME) which is probably because the parents understandably didn't expect it to be so frightening, but still.

Howard 03-09-2007 11:27 AM

Yeah, on the subject of "SHUT UP KID!", when I was in a horror movie once that I thought was relatively decent for what it was, there was a pre-teen next to me who was trying to impress his friends and kept repeating/whining "OMG this is SOOOOOO stupidddddd... this suuuuuucks sooooo badddddd...."

Of course he was just trying to be cool in front of his friends whether he liked the movie or not, but I seriously wish I had kicked him or something. Good for him I'm nice.

8D and don't worry, I saw Spongebob in the theaters, too!

Sparky 03-10-2007 04:47 PM

Oh yeah on the "shut up kid!" thing, that happens to me all the time (I go to see a lot of kid's movies). And you know, it's not always kids. WTH do some people feel the need to point out the obvious?? That always annoys me so much.

There's also always that one person, usually a woman, who laughs astoundingly loudly whenever something mildly humorous happens...

Sparky 03-10-2007 06:46 PM

Or the ladies who, when their kid starts crying, just takes them off to the side and stands there instead of leaving the theatre. I like to sit on the outside aisle in the last row of that bottom section with the walkway behind it, and during The Devil Wears Prada this lady decided to take her crying toddler down to *play* right behind my seat, because somehow that was okay.

Oh man Sparky, you have way more nerve than I do!! I'm glad I wasn't there... :terrence: Grrrr...

Another thing that gets to me is whenever flirty little M/F-mixed teenage groups go to horror movies. These usually contain the girly girls that say "LIKE OMG SO-AND-SO HOLD ME!!! AAAIIIIEEEEE!!!" and scream REALLY loud in scenes that AREN'T that scary, and then the guys who try to get the girls to scream by grabbing them and yelling "RAHH!!!" to scare the girls into their waiting arms. ::) Give me a break...

  • People who leave time on the microwave.
  • People that change the channels during commercials.
  • Spongebob Squarepants.
  • People that over pronounce words. (Like the "w" in sword)
  • That music in "Sonic The Hedgehog" when you are about to drown.
  • How people drive in Connecticut.
  • No one has come up with a good "priest and a rabbi" joke in ages.
  • People who are immediately on your case if you make a spelling error.

:terrence: YES!! My boyfriend ALWAYS changes channels during commercials and we always end up missing the first little bit of what we were watching. Patience is a virtue I wish he'd learn!! It's just commercials, they won't kill anyone.

And the Sonic "surface or die" music makes me so nervous that I don't even enjoy the water levels. I remember the chemical plant level in Sonic 2 that had the rising purple liquid that you had to escape. Pretty much if you fell too far while you were jumping, you were screwed. Ugh.

Overusing the "What song are you listening to right now" thread. Does anyone really need to list every last song they listened to that day? I know, it's a Spam thread so who cares, it just seems so pointless and lame. :P

What about other groups of people? Homosexuals aren't the only ones that get made fun of. Not trying to turn this into a heated discussion, but I'm just saying why just them? :P I won't go any further.

I agree... I don't think anyone reads them anyhow. I've posted on there maybe once, twice maximum just because I either got bored or I REALLY liked the song that came on my iPod, but seriously... I've not been on there more than a few times because it DOES seem lame.

8D BTW, you don't seem creepy to me, ORD!

I hate when people interrupt me.
