...It should come as no surprise to you that I like Coca-cola, then.

I'm pretty sure turns-the-page will also like it, given that he IS the hybrid spawn of some strange abomination.

Meh, give me dandelion and burdock over coke any day.

I tend not to get annoyed by small trivial things. Well, okay thats not true, they can annoy me but i don't see the point in focusing in on them when i have far more pressing and important problems.

I have been chuckling throughout most of the thread. I just realized why.

Recently? The relocation of the search bar at Wikipedia from the left column to the top right. Bad move, Wikipedia, bad move.


I didn't realise until you said that. That's really niggling me now... It's actually painful.

Wannabe macho men definitely annoy me, talking about cars and lifting weights might have impressed chicks 30 years ago, but now it just looks like your trying too hard.

People at the gym who see you lifting a certain weight, or running at a certain speed (as part of your planned workout) and one-upmanship ensures they do just a tiny little bit more than you. It's not impressive, it's not cool and it certainly doesnt make me think you're better than me. It just shows how rubbish you are at sticking with a fitness plan...

Me also. I guess you could say the general apple-isation of formerly well laid out and simple websites bothers me.

1. People who push right to the front of a train platform during peak hour, pushing in front of the people who've been waiting there for a longer time.
2. People who like, talk like, like this like.
3.; Idiots on trains who play their music either straight from their phone's speakers or just too damn loudly through headphones. Not everyone wants to hear your crap music!
4. People who immediately bag out the Wii without any real thought or consideration.
5. Smokers
6. People who insult another person's beliefs just for the sake of it
7. Trolls
8. Akimbo G18's
9. The lack of Halo 3 on PC
10. DRM
11. The trend of large game publishers turning into Satan
12. Bethesda's constant lack of TESV announcements
13. The Australian Attorney General's still stalling on an R18+ rating for games despite statistics showing a 98.2% support for such a rating.
14. My University Bus "guards" who treat all of the students as though we completely lack brains.
15. Channels 7, 9 and 10 (here in Aus) consistently refusing to use any degree of common sense when it comes to programming.
16. Teenagers who wear their pants low deliberatly (I dont want to see your undies thanks!)
17. Bogans
18. People who dont return library books that others need for assignments
19. Sydney's Cityrail timetable
20. That the new KOTOR is going to be an MMO
21. Valve's lack of HL2: Ep3
22. The Cult of Apple

I could go on, but I wont. :banghead: (Most of these arn't really "little" anyway)

Is... is the shiny "glass button" a herald of apple-ism? I sure hope not, shiny buttons are awesome.

... I'm not sure of any one thing that just annoys me. I guess it's people trying to dictate what it is that I should do with my life.

On a similar note, stereotypical hispanics.

Of course, technically I've got blood from every corner of the Earth, but most of it comes from the good ol' Iberian Peninsula. Still, it pisses me off, it does, to see people trying to fit in to cultural stereotypes rather than fighting them tooth and nail.

I'm a bit of a mut myself.
And on that note people who specifically aim at a pure breed status even though they know damn well the dog won't:
1) be able to walk
2) be able to see
3) will be in constant pain
4) have lung issues
All by the age of 4*. Go get a dog from the pound or a shelter or another family and drop the [censored] status symbol.

*Not actual data. But the point is still there.

I'm mixed as well, and I also hate when stereotypical bastards accuse you of trying to be white because you're not like them. Obviously, being black (or any minority for that manner) is only about being an uneducated, unintelligent sports monkey.
