Rude people, in general, and especially people playing games online. I hate when you're playing Battlefield and your team loses, then some idiot in the middle of the pack on the winning team starts clowning on you. 7/13 isn't a good score, shut your face.

lol its funny when one says you svck and has a lower score than you.

Personally I hate in BFBC2 snipers.
I play as one sometimes, when I think I need to, but for the love of god dont jsut camp there and snipe when you are attacking. Its not as bad as before, but you still see a few people not moving, just sniping, ignoring the objective.
I also hate the sniper rifle in halo, no recoil, 1/2 hit kill depending where you hit, and its not *shoot* *reload* fire rate to high imo.

Hmm, what else?

7. "Rebelious" and "cool" kids that are against conformity.
8. When people that are well over their 20's (maybe even 30's) act like attention [censored]s and prepubertal teens.
9. People that generally have little knowledge of politics and religion.
10. People that generally have much knowledge about trivial matters (celebrities, fashion etc) and think that knowledge is important.
11. How cellphone operating companies and social network services claim it's a good thing to be available 24 hours each day, all year around and offer new things that allow that all the time.
12. American "reality" TV shows (that in essence contribute to why so many non-Americans claim Americans are dumb).

A few months ago I could have probably linked a huge list, but now I've just realized there's no point in getting angry over insignificant details. I mean there's still some stuff that I facepalm for and I still can get mad, but I just keep it in check.

The friggin alarm-clock!

Well, you sound pretty awesome to me :thumbsup:

That goes into something that grinds my gears... People who cannot except change, something different, or people being their own person. For the two years I actually spent time with him my father gave me hell for just about everything I did outside of his "Redneck, small town, racist, only hippies and hooligans look like that" viewpoint. Such as: being a geek, not liking hunting, having long hair, getting a piercing, wanting tattoos, wanting to grow a serious beard, disagreeing with his religious and social view points, etc. etc. All that, and a lot more, ended up with me basically giving up on my father to the point where I don't even talk to him anymore. There is no resentment of any kind on my part. My life just has a lot less stress when he's not in it. You can only go so far when trying to reach certain people.

The phrase "I'm trying to think",
People in the south pretending the letter G is not part of the alphabet,
"That's the way I was raised" being used as a excuse for obvious ignorance,
People who use short-hand and/or internet slang while speaking,
People who take themselves far too seriously,
People who "know" they are right and there is zero chance that they can ever be wrong,
Hypocrites,
Those damn dirty apes who need to take their hands off Charlton Heston,
Anti-Main stream people. I,e "I can't like that band anymore because they got signed. Bleh.",

And a whole lot more... That's all I can think of right now though.

Sock lint between the toes. We can fly man to the moon, but we can't figure out how to make sock lintless socks. <_<

Going to pick up a heavy box, and finding out it's light as a feather. Or...the reverse of this.

Stepping in dog poop. (stepping in gum in the summer is just as bad)

Trying to explain computer related things to my dad. (ugh :facepalm: )

People who call me trying to sell me things. Although they are better than people who turn up on my doorstep trying to sell me things.

I have a lot of fun when people call to sell me things. I go through the entire call completely in-character as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zloWEvRDhgI until they hang up.

Just remembered another one. People hovering over my shoulder. My dad just loves to stand right behind me while I'm on the computer or while I'm cooking something. I don't know why, but that annoys me faster than anything else.

Lol apparently my uncle makes up his own massive questionnaires with his son that he whips out whenever someone comes a-calling, might give it a go Maybe a mix of the two... The closest I've come is swearing as much as possible without directly swearing at them, but it didn't last that long and I still felt bad at the end of it :confused:

Socks with seams that go across the ends of your toes.Even today they are apt to drive me into a childish RAEG.
SO WHAT IF THEY"RE THE ONLY CLEAN ONES I DON'T WANT TO WEAR THEM THEY FEEL WRONG AAAAAGH


*ahem*
Anyway.

-People who enjoy sneaking up on me

-Excessive profanity

-Apostrophes where no apostrophes are meant to be

Another thing...

People that obsessively clean. Clean once a week, there is no reason to do it everyday. Especially in someone elses room. You don't have to live in there, why do you care?

That sounds pretty great. Another good idea you might like to try for fun: Once when someone pranked called me I immediately went into character on the fly as a employee of Tom's pizza shack. Home of the cannibal pizza. I went on for maybe 30 minutes telling them all about our specials and even gave them directions on how to get there. Which required sacrificing a live fish to Dagon while driving exactly 92 miles an hour down the highway at a certain point at midnight. They then hung up. Take that so-called pranksters!

Another thing that grinds my gears: People who refuse to believe there is a difference between standard definition and high definition.

THIS.
ONE THOUSAND TIMES, THIS.

I don't necessarily think that's a dumb question. Most of the "ethical" vegetarians I know will still eat fish just because it avoids the slaughterhouse that cows and chickens face. For people who do it for health reasons it's pretty mixed, but they still seem to eat fish most of the time. I would just say that everyone is trying to take interest in your life and being polite. Just say that you're vegan if you don't want people to ask you those questions. I'm not trying to beak vegetarians either, if I didn't get so sick from not eating meat I would be one.

Fun fact about humans: If you ever succeeded in becoming a complete vegetarian (i,e stopped eating all meat for a pro-longed period of time) you would have the opposite effect. If you tried to eat meat it would make you sick.

A lot of times that can be Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Some people can't help it.

I know, I have a friend who is at that point, he ate a burger and it looked like he had food poisoning. The main problem for me is that I've got ibs and I'm lactose intolerent so if I cut out meat I not only have a super limited diet, but I just feel like [censored] if I stop eating it, probably something to do with the protein. Even my doctor told me I need to eat a more than normal amount of red meat, so I just decided to only buy free range beef and chicken, along with organic seafood. I didn't want to become a vegetarian for health reasons, just ethical.

Interesting. And not to make light of it but what a twist! The idea behind a ethical vegetarian who has a condition that forces him to eat red meat could make a pretty hilarious short story/film.

You know what grinds my gears? Stupid decisions you made as a kid back firing on you and leading to problems later in life.

Example: When I was around six years old some friends and I built a make-shift ramp for our bikes. Well, I hit the ramp incorrectly and instead of landing safely on the grass my bike decided to do half a backflip leading to me landing lower back first onto concrete, tearing my back to shreds. Not to mention the fact that the bike came down full momentum on my nose.

It caused: Lower back problems for the rest of my life, and even though it didn't break it, my nose has been crooked ever since.

Junk and unsolicted mail.
I had a good time shredding some and stuffing it into assorted postage pre paid junk mail envelopes, to be mailed back.
Let's see how they like it.

Moments when I completely lose all judgement and reasoning. I'll instantly regret everything I did/said immediately, but the effect it has on other people's opinions about me is irrepairable.

When people pretend not to hear you because they think you're a loser or just don't want to talk. Say, "I don't feel well right now" or something like that.

Gossip. If you have a bad first impression of me, I can live with that, but if you tell all your friends about me they'll have bad first impressions of me before I can even meet them.

The rarity of true nerds.

My dad becoming religioius all of a sudden.

People who freak out about small things. And I mean literally freakout or start yelling angrily about something no one else really cares about. Theres some small things people get agitated but I mean the people that just lose it.

Ignorant Americans who give a bad name for everyone else in America. Also I just hate people who generalize a group of people by just one encounter with one or even worse judge a group by someone who is not even considered part of that group.

People who can't eat a sandwhich, burger,or whatever because theres some condiment or topping on it that they dislike and throw it away even though they could have just took it off or wiped it off with a napkin. (Should have gave it to me)

[censored] hate that. I had a "friend" who posted on FB to people who I had never met, and would never meet me about how I was apparently the most annoying person in the world.
Firstly everyone found him more annoying, not the point, but what a [censored] [censored].
I can say it here because I am not mention names.

People who hate simething even though they have never personally experienced said thing
