Eh, spammers/flamers/trolls usually bother me the most. That especially goes for people who spread chain letters, such as ones like, "SEND DIS 2 15 PPL IN THE NEXT 5 SECONDS OR U WIL DIE LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL."

Though I guess I'm being a hypocrite, since I used to be a spammer. XD

There are a bunch of other things as well, but I won't go into them, unless y'all want to hear my essay-long rant. XD

You may as well go for it; that's what this thread is for, more or less.

I guess I'll present my own list as well:

-Bullies
-Extreme jerks
-Trolls
-Many of today's stereotypes... but mostly the "geek who lives in his parent's basement" one, which pisses me off no matter the context it's mentioned within.
-Overly closeminded people(which are in endless supply at IMDb and GameFAQs )
-People judging things before they actually come out
-People who are unable to accept others for who they are
-Reggaeton
-Annoying, cringeworthy spanish-language love ballads
-Having to put up with either reggaeton or love ballads every single time I'm in the family car (I never get to put in the music I like because my family will always complain that it's too "hard-edged" or "weird")
-Crazy Frog
-Pussycat Dolls
-Sleazy fanart (I'm not opposed to nudity itself, but more often than not, it seems as if it's used in a way that is utterly disgusting)
-Lame, annoying vocals in rock songs (Like in the recent Guitar Hero II Xbox 360 commercial with the comet falling on the city, which has a good rock beat that is ruined by the lead man's earsplitting shrill that makes Jar Jar Binks sound good)
-90% of all commercials
-People who complain and remark about "WALL OF TEXT" everytime someone writes even the most modestly-sized paragraph (This happens all the time at GameFAQs... are people that illiterate? )
-The media portrayal of women as snide, conceited goddesses who "are oh-so-infinitely-superior to men"
-The lack of heart and warmth in many of today's cartoons

There's definitely more, so I'll add to it later.

The internet ticks me off, or at least it does now anyway. My connection has been sucking and I've been leeching off college computers, my dad's laptop, and this poor excuse for a connection I'm currently using.

Machines also tick me off, just when one thing starts to work 10 other things start to break or malfunction.

Mine always get like that. I usually just leave them alone and let them be tangled because I don't want to spend half the day fixing it.

I agree about Crazy Frog... they stole the sound file, there are people who are like "LOLOLO I DOWNLOADED CRAZY FROG ON MY CELL PHONE" and also he has parts that should not be there because he's a FROG.

Oh, speaking of annoying Internet things, I hate those annoying banner ads a lot of sites have that have lame smilies that startle you by yelling when you least expect it.

Angry ohMYGOD! NO W...*smack*

kageri just won this thread.

Seriously, next time I hear one of those fricking shrill-voiced irritating smilie adverts shrieking "OMIGOD!! NO WAY!!" at me just because I happened to scroll my mouse over it, I'm honestly throwing my monitor through the window. Why do they think that's good advertising? Surely only an absolutely brain-dead abomination of a human being would actually click on that link? Oh wait...yeah, that's the point of the advert.

The brain-dead abomination principle also applies to anybody who downloads a Crazy Frog ringtone. The saddest part is, I remember back in the day when that used to be a pretty funny internet joke...it was a just a website with a picture of an F1 car on it and that "ring-ding-ding" noise on it, challenging you not to laugh at it, which you inevitably did. Then big business got their hands on it, and all of a sudden people are expected to buy a single of that noise played over the Beverley Hills Cop theme. AND THEY DID.

So, in conclusion, I believe that all people should be destroyed. Hail ants!

EDIT: Oh aye, one more thing: why the heck do my torrents always upload data about five times faster than I download it? I'm not running a charity here, people; if I click to download a torrent file, it's because I want the file, not because I want to share it with everyone else! I don't want a good share ratio; I want my Batman episode nownowNOW! Everybody else can go scr....actually, I've said too much.

When people have a comment on something, anything, something like a detention for example, and say "OMG THAT IS SOOO GAY!". Can't people use words the right way anymore?
And those annoying teen slasher movies were kids are always getting drunk, doing stupid stuff and then everybody dies at the end.

I don't think it's a matter of "right way" because these days, words take on whole new meanings and it's especially hard to judge these considering that slang is constantly changing. Gay has become a way of saying "this sucks".

Or "this is crap" etc. I use the word sometimes, it's just a matter of preference for slang words. No slang word really bothers me except for "back in the day". I don't know why but it sounds so stupid to say it.

I just never liked the sound of it.
