Thing That Piss You Off That Aren't Video Game Related

[The Artificially Prolonged]

The current job market. In the last two months I have applied for seven jobs, got one interview and zero jobs. Admittedly I already have a job but I really hate it and have made it my goal this to get a new but I'm just getting screwed by the lack of opportunities.

Religious people that don't keep it in their pants.

I know, those Catholic priests can cause a lot of bother

EDIT

It also pisses me off when I don't notice spelling mistakes until I've clicked post.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

Ignorant people
Religious nuts
Hipsters
Tweenies
TV Executive who don't know good TV
Obsessive fans of anything

...And that's just a few things I dislike...!

 

[Fijiman]

The assholes who blare the stereos in their vehicles. If I wanted to listen to your crappy music I would do so on my own free time in a way that wont be heard a block away nor felt five blocks away. Fucking retards, I hope you all go completely deaf.

 

[doomspore98]

People raising their hands in school and then say "I have a question".
People who mix up much and many.
People who yell at bicyclists to get off the road.
People who try and sell their religion at me.
People who shout that religion is stupid.
Major conservatives.
Major liberals.

The biggest one is the bicycle one, because if you yell back they're most likely to get out of their car and kick your ass.

 

[Korak the Mad]

Idiot drivers. I like my car, dammit. And I don't feel like checking into the hospital any time soon either. Use your turn signals, stop swerving into lanes, and get off of your phones. Seriously. I'm all for natural selection, but not when it involves the idiots being in control of 2000+ pounds of metal going at 60+ miles per hour.

I agree, I was T-boned on Christmas Eve last year when pulling into my driveway. The idiot behind me had his windshield half-way covered in snow. He could have just turned on the wipers and cleared it, but no he didn't. My house was on the opposite side of the road, and I had my left turn signal on, and to make sure I would be able to fully pull into my driveway I did a slight move to the right so I could pull in. I also made sure I had enough time and space between me and him so I could pull in. The idiot behind me saw me move slightly to the right, and sped up (speed limit was 50 mph) and went in the other lane, so he could pass me. He hit the driver's side from just behind where my seat was, hit the car with so much force, he caused the rear driver's side wheel to be at a sixty degree angle.
He got pissed off at me for pulling my car out in front of him, and I was more worried that he got seriously injured, and the first thing I said was "Are you alright?" He tried lying to the cops saying I had my right turn signal on and he also tried to clear his windshield before the cops came (didn't work). My car had to be repaired, but his car was most likely deemed totaled, the engine was pushed really far back when he hit my car.

Also what pisses me off are people who will play the most annoying music at full volume. There are other people in the room who may not like that music. Also people who gang up on someone because that person asked nicely for those people to turn down the volume.

Also people who try to get someone in trouble by making false accusations.

 

[Suicidejim]

Seth MacFarlane. Not any of his works, just the man, specifically. Every word that comes out his mouth makes me want to punch everyone in the immediate area.

Also, cans that don't have a ring pull tab on them, and require you to use a can opener. There is no decent reason why I should need a can opener in this day and age, when we have simple can opening solutions! You hear me, non-ring-pull-tab-can manufacturers!?

I'm coming for you, you cheap, penny pinching fucks.

 

[Qitz]

A related pet peeve: If someone takes the time out to fill and submit an application GET OFF YOUR FAT LAZY ARSE AND CALL/MAIL/EMAIL THEM TELLING THEM YOU DON'T NEED THEM! It's frustrating enough when you can't find work, but when the spineless fucks don't even have the balls to tell you they don't have a position for you it's just insulting. I will commend cars.com on this though, I sent in an app and they took time out to send me a rejection letter. Fair enough, you didn't have a place for me, but at least you had the balls to tell me this instead of leaving me hanging for months. Sure, it was a canned letter that was sent out alongside thousands of other letters for varying reasons and destinations, but at least they sent it. That's all I ask. This is something I would do for every application I get if I were a manager or HR officer. I don't care how long it takes to respond to every app.

THIS. Entirely this. God I hate it. It takes about 30 seconds to shoot off an email saying "Dear Name, Thank you for taking the time to send an application but we're going forward with a more promising employee."

Sitting there wondering if they're going to get back to you just drives me nuts and hits a black mark against them.

Aside from that, people who huddle near the front of the bus, there's a whole fucking back of it you know? Try moving back there so I don't have to dance my way past your ass.

People who want to preach to you about anything. No, I don't care about that rare nut-frog whose in danger, no I don't want to hear your philosophy about why religion is good and no, I don't care about whatever damn political BS you're trying to push. Stop ringing my door bell or trying to flag me down in the streets, I don't give a shit.

Drunk people too, they always seem to pop up around me. Go away, go be drunk somewhere else that isn't near me, I don't want to deal with you.

People who will see a post that says "Most" or "All" and their instant response is "I DON'T!" Well, congrad-u-fucking-lations but that doesn't matter in the slightest now does it? No, you're not some hyper intellectual because you point out a grammatical failure, stick on topic and stop trying to tout yourself.

Mother fuckers with their bass up. I don't want to hear my shit rattling because you've pumped more money into your damn stereo than your ENTIRE car is worth. Constantly hearing *BOOM**BOOM**BOOM* as your driving doesn't make you a bad-ass it makes you a fucking idiot.

 

[RedLister]

Umemployment and the governments constant exploitation of the umemployed. (People being forced to work around 40 hours for 55quid a week. Thats like one pound something an hour)

People taking the piss out of disabled people both physical and mental related illness.

Doing massive work out sessions and not achieveing results.

Missing a day of working out due to illness. EVERY DAY DAMN IT! MUST DO IT EVERY DAY! *twitch*

The people in my towns inability to actually drive properly (they drive like morons) and also there inability to get off there fat arses and actually walk somewhere. I don't drive myself can't trust other drivers not to drive like ponces. Rather spent 3 hours of my day getting into work and then back much safer until you need to cross a road then its like froger....well when i actually had a job to walk to and back from.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifTIuA8Dq58 This sums up the roads through my eyes pretty nicely while dodgy music plays.

My countries inablity to grow a spine and rise up against being riped off constantly by supermarkets, water companies and government. Yeah i know its just as bad and/or worse around another european countries but they aint scared to get there hands dirty in order to protect there rights and let there overlords know that there doing a shite job. Kudos to them guys and girls for sticking up for themselves.

People who tell me everything is alright or going to be alright by just sticking my head in the sand and pretending its not happening.

A complaint TestEcull beat me too. You spent all that time and effort doing an application form to a company. They should HAVE to then spend the time to actually contact you back. Damn lazy toerags all because they don't want to injure there thumbs from pen pushing sitting on there arse all day.

People invading mine and others personal space, happens all the time when i have to endure the supermarkets (My old mans ill and mom has arthritus in both her knees so a strong back is needed). Stand still for 1 second and you got 5+ people sniffing around you..back the hell off.

People who cold call my house trying to sell me crap always the same times of the day too. I enjoy telling them to F*** off though.

oddly enough thats just a tiny select few which enrage me....im a very angry person

Captcha: Hunky-Dory.....not bloody likely.

 

[malestrithe]

Being unemployed, and the fact that the Dominoes Pizza that was hiring wanted two years experience doing deliveries to be eligible. Well, I'm hardly going to get two years delivery experience not being able to try now am I?

Try volunteering for non profits, your church, your local school or anything. Once you get some experience, then apply at Dominos.

Better yet, apply anyway. They might surprise you and say yes, we will give you a shot.

Complaining is easy. Acting is hard. Make your own opportunities for growth instead of lamenting life.

 

[Esotera]

I start a new job in less than four weeks and have no house for it, haven't moved out of the current one, am going to be travelling for ten hours straight tomorrow.

Also, this town is even more boring than I remember. It needs hookers permanently playing paintball on the streets or something.

 

[malestrithe]

Nostalgia in general pisses me off. We live at currently the best time for us. We always do. Next year will be better than this one. There are some that think because they grew up at a time when things were a million times weaker, it is somehow better.

 

[ThePenguinKnight]

Having trouble finding a job as well, so the job market.
Having no income means I eat off of less than $2 a day, can't go out, and can't go on the vacation I've been planning.
Since I'm stuck at home everyday all I have to do for entertainment is watch Netflix and play TF2, can't afford a game.

Netflix streaming and how they don't have a better browsing setup.

TF2, for whatever reason I keep getting messages saying that basically every server is non-responsive.

 

[Colour Scientist]

Snip

Would it not make sense to take the job for a short period of time, say six months, so you have a position of responsibility to put on your CV, in order to find another job? Use it as a stepping stone? In this climate it's difficult to get a job even with years of experience, turning up your nose at a perfectly adequate job and then moaning about employers being lazy doesn't seem very productive.

Employers generally don't even require specific, relevant experience, most of the time they just want to see that you're willing to work and are able to hold down a legitimate job. The longer you go and the older you get without any experience, the harder it tends to be to find something.

A friend of mine works in a McDonald's. He gets more than minimum wage, decent hours, the job isn't too strenuous and he's able to pay rent, university bills and has excess money to throw around.

 

[scarecrow350]

People who miss the point so hard its unbearable, and then act like i'm the stupid one
this can also be extended to people who, after i call them out on something stupid they've done, act like they weren't serious and try to make it look like i'm stupid for 'not realizing it was a joke'

 

[Matt King]

people who say "yolo" seriously fuck em, i'll prove to them just how true that statment is

(also my Buddhist friend always laughs in their faces whenever they say that)

 

[Aeonknight]

Entitlement. I deal with it every damn day almost.

whatever happened to "life ain't fair, suck it up and deal with it"? Since when does someone deserve a king's crown because they've been inconvenienced in some manner?

And it's done nothing but get pettier and pettier the more it's accepted. "They gave me the wrong hot sauce, I'm going to ***** at the manager till that employee is fired!" Seriously, die in a fire.

 

[The Funslinger]

Movie adaptations of video games. BAM!

Erm... also, chavs, rap, pop, hypocrites, and the fact that we as a culture no longer settle our differences with a gentlemanly duel of sabers.

I'm gonna jump on the Ragetrain, and agree with you.
I also hate People who make bad puns,Hypocrites and people who copy jokes from other posts.

In all seriousness, I hate people who try to convert me, and when TWO people take up FOUR seats on the bus, splaying themselves over two seats leaning over, and talking to one another.Seriously, if you are going to engage in a lengthly conversation with someone,PLEASE sit beside each other! the seats are VERY large! your personal space is plentiful!

I also absolutely DESPISE people who KNOW that I am an Atheist, a man of science and a person who likes to be alone in a small quite spot on public transport.
STOP
TRYING
TO
FUCKING
CONVERT
ME.
Love, that guy who stabbed you 37 times in the chest.

I hate people who simply hate me because I'm a brony, and I actively draw ponies,and other pointless bullshit.Yet simply, they call me gay, when they have NO SOLID PROOF, and accuse me of having strange and weird fetishes.
Sir, I did not invent the Lyra fuck-toy,I simply like drawing ponies and watching a certain cartoon.

I have a deep hatred of people who think; ''Spelling isn't important as long as you can understand me!''
No, I do not understand you, I do not know what you are writing about, and you sound like a vastly mentally deficient four year old you discovered typing.

Finally, I hate the vast ''entitlement'' of games that spurned after The Retake Mass Effect movement.
Just because you bought a game, DOES NOT mean you are entitled to it in any way, it was not made to YOUR preferences, you will never, and do not have any say in game development as a simple consumer.
Shut up, sit down, enjoy the game as much as you can, and anything you don't like, simply deal with it and carry on.

People who use the word "ta" when not talking to children. You're a fully-grown human being for fuck's sake; stop making sounds with your mouth that make you seem brain-dead.
