What things makes you the most tick?

Post » Sat Sep 27, 2014 4:28 pm

Kinda a touchy subject for some so be nice everybody and follow the rules... I'm just a little curious what specific things can make ya tick, mad, or upset with that specific object or individual. Maybe even why, if you can explain why that is. Also note I'm talking about what ticks you, not what annoys you.

As for myself... There are two main things really. 'Mislabeling' and 'Unnecessary Exclusion'. A lot of minor stuff too (including people who are just jerks, cheaters, etc but those are mostly minor and don't tick me too much. They gotta be REALLY BAD to really do much to me).

Firstly, mislabeling is probably something I gained due to being bullied so much and seeing others being bullied. Simply put, mislabeling would be when you call someone stupid, dumb, gay, or many other words without proper facts OR due to poor assumptions. The biggest thing being calling someone (who has a disorder) stupid, dumb, or an idiot... Though that is because I have disorders myself and know what it feels like to be "different" as such... And sometimes I feel offended when people call even just characters from a show these names based on their poor assumptions. (Example: Ditzy Doo aka Derpy. It really gets me rather tick and I do feel offended when people call her stupid or dumb simply because of her lazy eye disorder or because of her being clumsy... I actually have lazy eye disorder myself, though mind you not to the degree as her, and am clumsy cause of it... And that's just me. Let alone someone who has lazy eye disorder to her degree; I can fully understand why they would be clumsy... So calling people like them stupid or dumb really ticks me especially).

And lastly... Unnecessary Exclusion. Simply put, this is excluding a specific subject, object, or individual for no factual good reason... Excluding them due to your personal opinion on them is wrong and extremely bias (Mind you, we are all bias but there are extreme cases of it which is, in my opinion, wrong). Now, I know some people already knows this ticks me off... Especially if I am part of the group that is getting excluded but still am mentioning this and why. The reason why this ticks me is simply because I feel it is wrong to exclude others from something that they should totally be part of, even if they are a minority. Excluding them just makes those people feel lonely, unwelcomed, etc and could cause depression for them. Heck, even suicide depending on the individual and what they are being excluded from. (Excluding subjects or objects I'm more okay with and don't have too big of a deal since you can't really harm said subject or object. You might upset fans of them though which is why I still don't support excluding them). You should only exclude something when it makes sense. For example, excluding Battlespire, Redguard, etc when only talking about the MAIN Elder Scrolls series. That makes sense. Also, if you do by accident then simply fix it when someone points it out (which is why I normally point it out first in a friendly manner before getting tick).

And I believe that's it. What about ye'? Anything specific that makes you tick? Or are you highly acceptable to everything?

Depends. I find Pet Peeves to be more about things that annoy you, not what ticks you off. But other people might look at the subjects differently.

Eh. Not in my mind. I find pet peeves to be about things that annoys me, not tick me off. But whatever. I made this thread specifically for what actual ticks people off, not what their pet peeves are or what annoys them.

But seriously, let's just stay on-topic and NOT bother with the discussion of pet peeves. That's for another thread.

~Edit~

"A pet peeve is a particular thing that bugs you every time. If your pet peeve is how people misuse words, you're in the right place. A peeve is an annoyance, and a pet peeve is an annoyance that's nurtured like a pet — it's something someone can never resist complaining about."

FYI: I am not talking things that annoy you... Thusly, this is not a pet peeve thread.
