Things you are sick of hearing

[TheLaofKazi]

When the phrases "grow up" or "act your age" is spouted out whenever me or someone is acting goofy or funny, even when the supposedly immature person isn't being too obnoxious or disrupting anyone, they just say that to make themselves appear to be superior.

And people that say crap like "like oh my God. Stop. You're not cool" whenever you are doing something, as if you were trying to win some cool points or something.

Avatar hate. Fine, it's not the best movie ever, but I know you just hate it because it's popular and overhyped.

Also, people referring to all mp3-players as Ipods. They were not the first, and they're not the only ones available, and no I don't want overpriced gadgets because it's fashionable.

 

[AstylahAthrys]

People forming stupid political opinions. Some of I heard at my school in the last presidential election: "I like Obama because he's black," and "I like McCain because his VP is a woman." Also, I hate when people bash things they know nothing about. I see it so much on the internet it makes me want to rip my hair out.

And when people say I'm short. Yes, yes, I realize that I can't reach upper shelves because I'm only 5 feet tall. Don't rub it in.

"Everyone in America is an illegal immigrant".

NO! [snip]

Oh, that reminds me: incoherent, question-begging rants that pretend to present simple answers to extremely complicated questions. Could do without those generally. Also, claims that:

I am one sixteenth [this or that]

... as though this is supposed to lend added weight or credibility to the ranting. (It doesn't.)

I am a Native American. I could be recognized as one at any point. It carries quite a bit of weight I must say.

Only as long as you actually show some sing of knowing what you're talking about, sorry. (I know exactly how that "hey, that 'stolen land' story is nonsense" line would go over in American aboriginal company, it wouldn't matter a whit what you look like or what you have a sixteenth admixture of.)

They consider a person a Native down to the last drop of blood through their veins. Even then past tribes have their land taken by other tribes, so in a sense it's rather hypocritical for ANY person in ANY civilization to whine about having their land taken when the world was formed by the actions and consequences of such wars.

I by no means said it was a positive thing that occured (in regards to how the Natives were treated) but it's an argument that has to quit being used to further the belief that the illegal immigrants coming in from Mexico and South America are owed this land because of what they consider to be legal hypocrisy. They are stealing from us, they are ruining the land with their crimes, and they actually believe they have some God given right to just show up...

They do not respect the system and they actually demand we help them out just because they have lived here for a while. I don't care, they aren't going to get any condolences from me considering we have to bear their selfish burden of crime, poverty, and everything else they have brought with them.

It's disrespectful and wrong to commit such a crime against all the people who bear the weight of being an immigrant and rightfully come. Ellis Island, California, etc. It doesn't matter, point is they are disrespecting many people, many citizens, many human beings, and it sickens me. They are criminals and thieves regardless of what third world poverty they bear from another land. We are in no way reponsible for their crimes or hardships and asking me to bear them is wrong.

 

[Arsen]

And I find it highly ignorant in a sense that everyone touts back and forth the names of MY dead relatives, continously asks that it makes every basis for illegal immigration a "common sense" approach to deal with the problem, when the system isn't even broken. It's those who don't want to deal with the learning of English and so on.

People who hate Republicans because they immediately associate them with:

Racist white people
Ignorant human beings
People who believe in God (and are therefore immediately given the title of idiot)
Warmongers
Being backwards with what direction America needs to head in

"Video games are over priced"

But they so totally are. D:

And I know how well the use of Aboriginal cred to try to bolster vicious racist smears like those would go down, too.

I didn't mean to give you the impression that I'm the least bit interested in your take on Teh Immigrants, BTW. Rants about the supposed evils of illegal immigrants are right up there on the list of Things I'm Sick of Hearing; I personally think it should fall under the "inflammatory trolling" section of the posting rules, but I'm not a moderator.

Trolling my ass, I am a Native American by the modern tribes own definitions of it. Xenophobic? Pfft. People can come in from all across the corners all they want. I love reading of other cultures, getting to meet so many people (Latvia, Prague, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, etc etc) at the job I do. I think it's awesome personally. I regularly chat it up with customers. Was tickled to death when a girl from Syria came over so I could ask her if she had ever seen Palmyra.

But enough of that, point of the matter is that the majority of crimes committed by illegal immigrants are committed by those in the South West. Sorry to quote statistics here but it's inarguably true. Sorry you like to boil everything down to name calling and all that, but I guess that's the nature of debating you prefer.

Sorry, but you strike me as the type that thinks if I mention anything about a race it automatically constitutes racism. Then again, it just so happens (fav. George Carlin quote eh?) that it is the reality of situation being blanketed by people such as you.

What? You think we'd be complaining if people were coming over from Europe and doing this? I know I would be.

And I really hate it when one option is clearly better than another, but people still say the topic is "subjunctive".

MW2 VS. FPS of choice.

MW2 is da best cuz it looks so fking great and it plays so well wif diverse multiplaya!!!!!<copious amounts of 1,!,one,exclamationmark>

Shut the fuck up. MW2 was another generic shooter. It's not bad, but it's like saying a cheeseburger is as good as the perfect steak with Montreal Steak Spice and BBQueQue sauce.

[yell]I have been doing X for 10+ years, I know what I should be doing better than you do[/yell]

SHIT CHANGES IN 10+ YEARS DUMBASS

Not necessairily something I hear, but my teacher goes on power trips on the exact same people saying the exact same things OVER and OVER again, for absolutely no reason (stop doing that, you are so distracting) saying she's wasting our time when in fact SHE's the one wasting our time. I swear I'm fucking glad school ends in 4 days.

LOLUMAD That comment pisses me off everytime

Fox news

Rush Limbaugh

Ignorant People(people who say things where they have no idea what there talking about

Did you hear what he wanted to do about the gulf? I honestly cannot tell if he's serious or not.

OT: I just realized after reading it in another post that the phrase, "put two and two together" doesn't make any sense, which is odd, because I hear that all the time.

What did he want to do with the gulf if i may ask(and stop it at reply post don't carry discussion any more)

I can't remember exactly what he said (despite him bringing it up many, many times), but I think it was something along the lines of emptying the gulf and then removing the oil.

I rarely listen to him, so I can't really add more than that anyway.

How the fuck are you supposed to empty the Gulf, and if it was possible, separate the oil from water while it's draining.

My neighbour/sister's friend/my mortal enemy constantly yells "YOUR MOM!" at the top of her lungs and thinks it's funny. I swear, if she says it one more time I'm going to strangle her with the vacuum cord.

 

[SlowShootinPete]

I feel a strong compulsion to rant whenever I hear someone mention katanas. I hate how some people worship them and everything else Japanese as being God's gift to man.

It really pissed me off when the ninja guy on the ninja versus Spartan episode of Deadliest Warrior was talking about how ninja swords were made of awesome steel. No, they were made of shitty iron, because Japan had almost no natural resources and their iron was full of impurities. Swords were basically status items because iron and steel polarms were so much more efficient weapons.

"Nintendo is intellectually bankrupt."

"I expected more from Yahtzee."

Basically any 'explanation' for stealing music/movies/TV/video games:
"Popular music is terrible, why should I have to pay for it?" You're not stealing Ke$ha, you're stealing Animal Collective.
"Radiohead did a pay-what-you-want album and that worked fine." So why doesn't every internationally-acclaimed band with dozens of popular singles just do that, then?
"Blizzard can make money without doing this anti-piracy crap, so why is Ubisoft doing this to us?"
"Stealing is okay if I am very angry when I do it/if the people stealing are incredibly good at it."
"Piracy has no effect on the industry."

"Video games are over priced"

and the one that makes my mouth foam:

"Why make something great when good sells better?" You don't sound smart or revolutionary any more, you just sound like you don't understand business.

So if i would say, for example, that I download music because I belive music should be free, and recorded to promote ones live appereances, that'd just piss you off, wouldn't it?

Hypotheticals are fun, arn't they?

"hurr durr my faith in humanity has dropped to zero"

Stop. Just stop.

Yeah, man, that's said too much, my faith in humanity is...

Wait.

Shit!

I hate when people (i.e. Americans) claim I'm spelling my first name "wrong."

My name: Doiminic

That is not spelled incorrectly, it's just spelled differently than the American version (Dominic, of course).
