Things that you feel like a jerk for hating

[Doclector]

Stupid Kids on xbox live/in game stores.

They truly are annoying. on xbox live, anyone below 15 is almost guaranteed to be as annoying as hell, and really moronic to boot. There are exceptions, in fact i think one of the best people I ever played left 4 dead with was only 14, but not many.

kids in game stores seem to go out of their way to get in my way. They crowd around the shelves, blocking me from looking at them for AGES. Hell, I can't even stand near them for fear of being called a pedophile, and don't even get me started on the things i overhear them saying.

"but mum, the new fifa has all the new players and kits!"
"I love sonic games! Dr eggman was so hard to beat on the last one!" (His name...is RRRROBOTNIK!)
*points at any fps ever* "This game is just ripping off COD!"

On the other hand, I was a kid once too, and I'm pretty sure i was even more stupid than I am now. maybe i had a little more common courtesy, and I didn't have online games with which to annoy people, but the fact remains, at some point, as a kid, I walked around a game store with the older people thinking "Damn brats! I can barely even see the PS1 chart for the little snotbags!".

Also, i find it hilarious when people criticise kids for being on games rated higher than their age. Chances are, you played games that the BBFC said you shouldn't as well, you just didn't have a ton of hypocrits online pointing it out. Are you seriously saying if you were 12 now, you'd wait 4 years to play halo reach? Didn't think so buddy.

Now on that we agree- band im into at the moment have a song with the lyric "Though shalt not put recording artists on ridiculous pedestals, no matter how great they are or were" before going to list everyone you just did and more besides, stating "They're just a band", Id reccommend them if you like hip hop.
And never heard of Approaching Nirvana, listening to Distorted Glass and all I can say is "its abit weird".

EDIT= Oops, look for Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip Thou Shalt Always Kill if your interested in the song I mentioned.

Rather an... eclectic band name (will look into)! Anyway, Approaching Nirvana is a largely instrumental orchestral electronica duo. Might be a bit of an acquired taste, tho.

 

[The Hero Killer]

Overly positive people, the ones that have a "I'm gonna live life to the fullest and nobody is going to bring me down because I have an amazing life and I'm the happiest I've ever been" type of way off thinking. Sometimes I find myself wishing tragedy on these people, mostly because my own life sucks.

 

[ZeroMachine]

Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

... Nah, don't feel like a jerk for that anymore. Ah, the joys of not dating a Burton/Depp fangirl...

 

[zehydra]

Tattoos, I hate them. Of course talking about how you hate them isn't a great way to drive a conversation so I mostly keep that to myself unless I'm in a public forum sort of scenario. Like this place.

 

[tehfeen83]

I can't stand people who go traveling and climbing mountains and then talk about it as if it was some amazing, profound experience. It may have been for them. For me, it's just a deeply boring anecdote.

 

[CrashBang]

Pink Floyd. I appreciate and recognise that they're a fantastic, dynamic band who write great lyrics but I just don't like them. Their videos creep me right out, the music makes me feel uncomfortable somehow and I just don't find them that exciting.

 

[NotSoLoneWanderer]

I hate when people chew to loudly as well or if they just chew with there mouth open. I don't even mind if it's in a loud setting or if they're talking while eating but when it's quiet and all you can hear is the constant mastication of some sitting next to you it drives me mad...on the inside. I also don't like my sister. They way she talks walks plays video games draws all make my muscles tighten as if I'm about to hit her. I really don't know why but her presence is discomforting.

 

[kinapuffar]

Apple and console shooters.




No wait... I feel prefectly justified in hating these. They both fucking suck.

 

[The Eyeball Moose]

I hate people who greet me just to greet me. If you don't have anything remotely important to say to me, keep your blasted mouth shut.

 

[zelda2fanboy]

Fight Club, Lord of the Rings, and Scott Pilgrim. I'm a big movie fan, but I don't like any of those movies. Everybody loves them, too - especially Fight Club. They just seem to have the trapping of pointless boring fight scenes that don't amount to anything.

 

[StBishop]

Um... i hate children, and noises made while eating and... um... I really hate people breathing... I shouted "just stop breathing already!!!!" at someone and that made me look like a *****... probably.

We wouldn't get along at all.

I make stacks of noise when I'm eating unless the food is bad.

I breathe really loudly and am told that I breathe all over people when I talk to them, so I make an effort not to, but I still do it by accident occasionally.

I also spend as much time as I can with my nephews, two of which are not school age yet. I get along well with children.

 

[Omechron]

Children.

Other people's children, the hypothetical concept of my own children, the laughter of children, the appearance of children, most products for children, most depictions of children, the smell of children, the taste of children, the proximity to children, the feel of their grubby little fingers...

The knowledge that I used to be one of those makes me want to murder absolutely everyone in the whole world twice.

 

[GraveeKing]

From personal experience, I hate people who are only partially disabled and realistically able to get a job but abuse the welfare system and soak up all the tax-payers money but I don't at all feel a jerk about that.
One thing I do feel like a jerk about is for myself hating people who seem to be much smarter than me in every damn thing I try and talk to them about. The ignorant are less annoying at least.

 

[StBishop]

I utterly hate old people going to supermarktets and still paying with cash, and preferably only small coins or small notes that take an eternity to gather together. Or they pay with one big banknote of ? 200 or ? 500, standing right next to a big sign painted all over the cash registry saying "We don't accept 200 and 500 euro bills", or pay with a slightly less big bank note, and then take two minutes to count the change they receive.

I like saying things like "Take your time", or "Doesn't really matter, I have all day to stand here and wait" or "By the time he's done counting, I'll be as old as he is". Those rinckle rats undoubtably deserve it, but then again, maybe I shouldn't be so public about it.

Then I've also been thoroughly hated in the supermarket once because I had my girlfriend on the phone because I saw salads were on a discount, and I needed to see if she wanted one instead of the macaroni I was going to purchase. I asked her which one I wanted, being occasionally pushed around by housewives veritably pillaging the stand with discount salads. When I said to my phone "Hang on, it's rather tough to stand here. There's all sorts of overeating fatties here who're literally jumping on this opportunity" I got some seriously hatefull looks from said housewives, thus pleading guilty to the fact of buying those salads because they believe themselves to be too fat. Again my point is as true as it was sarcastic, but maybe it was a bit too cruel.

It doesn't really sound like you feel bad about it at all, in fact you seem pretty obnoxious based only off of what you've posted.

I'm sure you're a nice person with many redeeming qualities, but based only off of the very limited information given I can't help but imagine someone very rude, with a drawling voice, who looks down their nose at everyone, and doesn't look like they've smiled in years.

 

[Sticky Squid]

I hate Gandhi, this gets me a lot of flack from people.

 

[i7omahawki]

TV entertainment programs with charitable angles. They swing through moods so much that they seem to guilt people into giving, more than appeal to them through reason or geniune altruism.

Obviously it makes me feel like a jerk because, hey, they're trying to keep kids from dying. It is mostly the fucking awful entertainment with fucked up cultural palettes that seem to enjoy bleeding dry everything beautiful and leaving behind a grey sludge of 'entertainment' behind...Haha, maybe I care too much.

But, I don't feel that bad about hating them, I really do think they are manipulating people through guilt, and that giving a tiny sum to charity alleviates guilt more than solves problems. That and some of the UK based charities should surely be government business, keeping kids off the streets is their god damn job.

So yeah, I'm an asshole because I hate charity, (except when the appeal is made through reason or actual compassion on my part.)

 

[Shoggoth2588]

I don't know why, but when people start with the "good morning" when I get to work. It just seems so fake, and if there's one thing I can't stand, it's fake people.

The work-place "Good Morning" I can stand. It the huddles and 'recognition' system that I can't stand. What's that? I've been given recognition for cleaning up some cardboard and, greeting a customer? Awesome! Does that come with extra pay? No? Didn't think so e.e

Children. I can't stand children or babies and I always feel like such a dick when I have to admit that to people.

I hate Gandhi, this gets me a lot of flack from people.

He was a pretty hardcore racist who agreed with some of Hitler's views. What's to like? Mother Teresa is another public figure who doesn't deserve all the love she's been given. It's one thing to harbor beliefs and carry them out but she denied people medicine and set up hospices. Not places of healing but, places where people went to die of horrible, painful diseases. She believed people needed to feel intense pain to get close to Gawd and she saw to it that many people got close to Gawd (in her view anyway)

 

[someonehairy-ish]

Children. I can't stand children or babies and I always feel like such a dick when I have to admit that to people.

This all the way.

They just annoy the hell out of me.
My girlfriend is even worse with them, she was ready to murder someone when we were on a plane to spain with a bunch of screaming kids on board...

Don't feel like much of a jerk for admitting it though. They ARE annoying. Noone can deny that!
