It's a simple question, and I think everyone has at least one. Mine has to do with grammar. I hate when people use 'that' when they are referring to a person. You are supposed to use 'who.'

Ex. He is a man that annoys me. <---- BAD
He is a man who annoys me. <---- GOOD

Ok, where to begin?

Pointing out the obvious.

Chewing with your mouth open.

Breathing through the mouth.

Stupidity.

People who can't properly defend something they like/dislike. (Ex: "It showed a penis" is not a good reason to not like Watchmen!)

Copycats, it annoys me SO much. I mean, to an extent it's fine. But when people whip out the "We only copy you because we like you" or something like that I get really pissed. If I like somebody it's because I like them, not because I want to like myself.

People who get their greasy little fingers all over my CDs and then don't put them back in their case... they deserve to die...

People that go 'I'm gonna go cut myself' or 'I'm going to kill myself' just to get attention. I really hope you do kill yourself.

People that don't use proper grammar when typing. I mean, really? There's spell check for a reason. -__-

Also, people that think logic and realistic thinking : negativity.

Lastly, on youtube, people that make comments like [Number of dislikes] don't/didn't [something that pertains to the video], or talk about Justin bieber on song videos. I especially hate people that bring this up in videos and act like they're being rebellious or original. It's the same thing as those other two things, except they're being hypocritical.

Maybe this is just a Minnesota thing, but when people bring up the weather. You have NO idea how annoying that is to me!

"So, it sure is raining hard out dere today"

Uhm, yeah. The loud thunder & lightening, giant hail, and heavy rain pouring so hard I can hear it outside really didn't clue me in at all. Thank You so much for telling me! :|

Let me run a scenario by everyone on The Escapist:

You're looking to find a job somewhere. You find a decent place that looks like it may pay well, and it's a good atmosphere. You politely introduce yourself to the manager, and the conversation starts, "Hi, I'm (so and so). I was wondering if you had any job openings here?"

And with a straight face, they say back to you; "We're always taking applications."

There are few things, very few, that set my teeth on edge, my blood on fire and my eye into stinky mode quite like this exchange. I didn't ask the dumb sob if he was taking applications, and in this information, my question IS NOT ANSWERED! It is nothing but an automated response, and it is a thousand flavors of stupid! I would understand if he didn't know, in which he would tell me, and the conversation would proceed from there, but not that overused, apathetic, piss lazy pile of erucberwncxdrdcfgvybh!!!!!11!!1!11!
Also, seconded. SECONDED SO HARD.

Either you're hiring or you're not! It ain't that hard to figure out! Please let me know ahead of time if I'm going to waste 15-30 minutes filling out a damn application!

When people defend a lack of artistic know-who under the guise of "it's my style"/"it's an abstraction". You need to learn the rules before you can break them.
