The small things that make you lose respect for humanity...

[wordsmith]

Political correctness
People who go "*Gasp* you can't say that!" when I just have...
people who bang on about "Oh, PC has no/few exclusives". That may be true. However the amount of games that come out for the PS3+PC or the XBox360+PC are far more than come out for the PS3+XBOX only (does that make sense?)
People who have a go at you about sexism, then use it against you
Last week when I was at work:
ME: (watering plants in the stockroom)
Female Colleage: (Carrying plates out to shelves)
FC: You should be doing this!
Me: why?
FC: You're a man. You should be carrying heavy stuff.

Bear in mind, had I gone to her "you're a woman. You should be watering these plants" she would have taken offence.... Where was I?

Oh yeah.
People who insist sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Yeah right. Have you seen the quality of "ya mum" jokes around?
People who use "so does your mum" at every possible opportunity
people who finish my food/drink without asking
That's all that come to mind at the moment.... more to come

Ok, let's see... Hmm... there's too much to list here. So I'll go with a summary: The fact that humanity hasn't killed itself off yet.

Something similar happened to me a few years ago. I really hate how sexism against guys gets no attention whatsoever in the media or anything else.

The 'Do not use in the shower' tag on the hairdryer.
Court cases where people pass their mistakes onto others.
The general state of music, Hannah Montanna? GTFO!
The winner- poor parenting. Kids hanging out in nightclub areas at night, doing drugs, beating up other kids, vandalising things, stealing, etc. Where are the parents? Why don't they discipline their little turd offspring.

i think we need to accept that the only reason a lot of people are alive is because it is illegal to kill them.

People who think Mitch Hedberg wasn't uniquely clever.
People who like Carlos Mencia.
Illiteracy.

Please don't mention Hedburg in the same vein as Carlos Mencia! What was wrong with Mitch?

Schools now, the education system to save money is reintegrating the retards (the wheelchair pants-crapping kind) into regular classes because it isn't "fair" to them to keep them out of normal classes. Never mind that they don't grasp the material that's being presented and the teachers in those classes don't have the training to deal with them. And the special ed kids are now being called "students with exceptionalities" because you wouldn't want to hurt the feelings of someone too bloody stupid to understand that you are making fun of them. Retarded is a clinical term, what's the next clinical term that will go out the window, infected maybe?

And people that actually believe the feminazi line about women still making less than men (it's been shown that women willing to make the same sacrifices as men make %150 what men do in the same work) when all they REALLY want is to be able to do less work and make the same amount of money.

Plus the fact that the US is VERY anti-male. My dad worked 12 hours a day, came home, cooked us kids dinner, cleaned the house, then when he went to bed my step-mother would freak out because he wasn't spending the 5 hours he had left with HER (she got half his pension, the house, the car, and alimony in the divorce. He got the kids.)My dad wasn't the only one that got this treatment either, most of my friends' dads got shafted the same way. Most of those women moved on to new men a week later and instead of getting married to them just lives with them and have families with them while collecting alimony.

In the US children aren't disciplined any more because it's illegal to do more than take away the video games.

And as for people who think violent media makes violent people, it's the parents' mistakes that screw the kids up, not any bloody cartoon/movie/video game.

Now that I think about it, 99% of societies woes can be blamed on poor parenting (most of which started when beating your kids became illegal, yay for protecting the kids. Bleeding heart pansies.)

everyone above me is right, especially the one about guys having to carrying heavy stuff and girls not having to.

Either accept the responsibility of modern feminism (ie there is no male/female only PEOPLE) or shut the fuck up, it is absolute bullsh^t to go on about being treated fairly and get pissed off when you are.

The main things that make me lose hope in humanity is:

1eople who use LOL and ROFL in real life
2eople who make there own l33tsp33k in real life (I caught one of my friends saying Trofl)
3eople who think there hot and boast about everything
4:Stupid people
5:Console war,fanboys

lots more but cant think of any right now =p

(I caught one of my friends saying Trofl)

What's TROFL supposed to be exactly, totally rolled on floor laughing?

Dude, its escalator, not elevator, thats kinda important to the joke. I hate to 'sandbag' you on it, but I can't stand the thought of someone linking Mitch Hedberg this joke when its told incorrectly.

China's government pisses me off. They're not communist, they're totalitarian. I just heard on the radio that two women are reported to have been arrested and placed in a year's "Re-education" through labour for trying to protest when their house was knocked down to make way for an Olympic route. These women applied as the laws state they may, to protest in a designated Beijing protest site.

Now it seems that the only appropriate line is "Arbeit macht frei".

When my friend lost his virginity.

I should probably have mentioned that it was several.

Firstly there's the guy I envy.
Keeps telling me that getting girls isn't a big deal, he doesn't seem to like talking to me much either.
So I was terribly jealous and upset that he lost his virginity when I can't even get a girlfriend.

Secondly there's the troll I was friends with online.
The guy who trolls everyone and looks and look at the rest of the world as retarded, then lost his virginity to some redhead.

Pick one and kill them, just to regain your dignity, oh well fingers crossed they get herpes

And someone had sex with a troll?! The apocalypse is nigh!
