What makes you rage?

[OutcastBOS]

The emoticon in any way shape or form. (o.o and O.O are ok, it's just the different sized o's in the thing that bug me.) It took a lot of effort to just type that stupid thing out.

And in a very close second, the phrase "TL;DR" because it means your either A: Too lazy to read it, B: Too stupid to understand the point, C: Lack reading comprehension to sound out more than two syllables, or D: Someone who can't be bothered to use logic, ex. "I can read 400 small posts, but that one with more than 3 lines is waay to long for me, herp derp".

Gah, that felt good to get out.

People going "THIS IS R BEST BECAUSE IT IS". One of the reasons I dislike American media, they cant stop banging on about how great freedom and liberty and Christianity is.

Why shouldn't they bang on about how great freedom and liberty are. Because, you know, they're great.
Also, something I rage about is people assuming the US is the same as texas, alabama, etc. Beyond fox news, the media doesn't really get all into how great christianity is (Even fox news is more into the Israelis than anything). If anything, CNN and especially MSNBC are left leaning. Where I live, (San Francisco, if it matters) hating the US seems to be more common than liking it.

 

[Dango]

Most people my age. I especially hate it when they argue about things they don't know anything about and have any experience with.

 

[Vault101]

People who don't realize that the world isn't as bad as people make it.

"all humaity is an evil scum and the world must be purged..I hope everyone dies"

YES, I cant belive I forgot that mysoganistic* BS that doesnt make any sense, nothing makes me rage faster

EDIT: * sorry "misanthropic" dont know where I got the other word from...

This:


Modern pop music is truly eating itself from its rotten, putrid inside out.

How the fuck did Toto approve this.

Let me give you some good music to put that shit out of your mind.

 

[WeAreStevo]

I'd have to say hollywood horror movie remakes.

It doesn't make it more scary when you add pop-out monsters and excessive amounts of gore! How about something original you goddamn hacks!!!1!

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

Also: Comment sections on the internet news stories, especially when it has to deal with something that I politically agree with.

Accidentally pressing the skip scene button instead of the fast forward button.

 

[Mauso88]

Lack of manners, it costs nothing to be civil and I am always civil to everyone I meet, even if I don't like them or don't know them.

 

[pilouuuu]

All the stupid remakes, reboots and sequels Hollywood is making these days. Where are the original, fresh ideas?

Also the lack of originality in games, now that they're more mainstream, but it's nowhere as bad as in films.

Politicians

Bossy bosses

People that can't be friendly or at least polite

Star Wars prequels

Jocks or people obsessed with sports

Vegetarian people that look down on you because you like meat

People that can't be tolerant with whoever has a different point of view

How important money is in this society and how hard it is to obtain it

'00 decade. Everything seemed to go downhill since then. Music, movies, world economy. Thankfully things are slightly better since this decade began IMO

Games that don't have proper or good endings. Weren't the developers expecting anyone to finish their game in the first place?

 

[Valok]

Hypocrisy and ESPECIALLY narrow minded people.

Got in a serious verbal fight with a uncle of mine last week because he can't see things aside from the ones he created in his personal little 1970's world...

 

[LogieBear]

I have a few. I never really voice them because I'ts not my buisness how others live thier lives BUT:

- Judging my character because im a man. e.g 'All men want is sex'

- Both religeous and non-religous extremists

- Just because I have a long fringe and colourfull hair does not mean I'm 'Emo' or 'Scene'
im just a fan of well cared for and flashy hair.

- Just because I call a man beautiful. Does not mean Im gay. Im confident and brave enough
to say what I think without the prosecution.

- On that note, if a make a remark on a womans looks. It does not mean I specifically want to
get in her pants. Not to say that sometimes I do

- I listen to metal. But that doesnt mean I cant enjoy other music

- Americans

- Governments making decisions without knowing (or caring) what the people think.
Or an ignorance to what they are talking about (SOPA for example)

- Sexism, both sides.

- Hate crime. I just cant comprehend how you could hate another person that much, just because
they a different race.

- Narrow minded attitudes and hypocrisy

- Vegans, and vegetarians that look down opon 'Meat-Eaters'

Probably other stuff, but that all I can think of right now

 

[AngloDoom]

Women who have a sense of entitlement because they are women

Examples that make me want to burn a bra (with a woman in it) include:

- Holding a door open for a stream of people, having every man thank me or nod, while women stride on through as if I'm paid to make their life easier.

.

haha its funny just seeing this after posting my angrey feminist rant

cant say I can dispute any of those points though

but yeah the door thing is an interesting issue (because I hear people actually getting cirticised for holding the door open for women..in some extrmeme cases) I find it interesting how many men occasionally hold a door open for me or "let me go first" out the elevator

unfortunatly some people over complicate the issue, or expcet certain things based on gender

I dont whats so hard about about just being friggen polite and holding a door open if they need it (regardless of gender) and thanking them for holding a door open for you (no angry feminst, its not some kind of chivalry/mysogany just say thank you and walk through)

I agree that it is a bit silly - but totally harmless - when men go out of their way to help women specifically because they are women. That said, my parents raised me to be stupidly polite but to both genders; I'm the type of guy who gets stuck behind doors because he's opened it for a crowd of people and I'm not sure when to let go...

Also agreed, even a nod or a smile, some acknowledgement that I went out of my way for a stranger would be lovely. I don't do it to feel good about myself, it's just hard-wired in, but at the same time I think men are less likely to have the door opened for them so they are more likely to thank an individual for doing so while some women tend to think they deserve it for having soft bits on their chest.

I also consider myself a bit of a raging feminist when it comes to some issues, but I was the one male in a large friendship group of women for five years and it did irk me the way many would just expect me to do things for them when they were quite capable themselves.

EDIT -

- On that note, if a make a remark on a womans looks. It does not mean I specifically want to
get in her pants. Not to say that sometimes I do

Branching off from my own points, very much this. I've got to the point where I've stopped giving women hugs, complimenting them, or indeed touching them if it can be helped because of the amount of people that assume that when I hug them (after hugging every single person goodbye prior to them) it must be some secret way of getting my genitals as close to theirs as possible, and when I say "You change your hair, it looks nice" it means "I studied your Facebook photos in a dimly-lit room, furiously masturbating for hours, prior to seeing you today and I can't help but notice your hair has changed."

- Both religeous and non-religous extremists

Also, non-religious extremists? Would you mind if I asked your opinion on who fits such a description? I genuinely can't imagine how one would even go about being a non-religious extremist. o.o

 

[gphjr14]

Rude people
Stupid People (not ignorant just stupid)
Lazy People
Overly Serious People
Pretentious People
The notion that as long as you're happy you can do whatever you want (to the point you're a burden to those around you)

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Let me give you some good music to put that shit out of your mind.

That was brilliant and put a big smile on my face... thanks

 

[BiscuitTrouser]

My "Danger: Thermonuclear Warfare when pressed" Buttons:
People who hate America and are American. You unpatriotic scum! You dont like this great nation? Theres the door! Dont let it hit you on the way out!
Burning the American Flag. No, just no. If I every see you doing that, I will punch your lights out and find a fire exstingisher. There is NO excuse for burning the American Flag. I DO NOT CARE IF IT IS LEGAL!! WORST RULING EVER!!!]

People like this (maybe more extreme) because of things like this


Its fucking creepy. Its a flag. And some land you were born on. Take yourselves less seriously, it doesnt hurt.

People who think certain things are 100% exempt from jokes or have special privilage not to be made fun of. You can make fun of ANYTHING. If i make fun of you, make fun of me! Im ok with it, the emphasis is on fun. Making fun of something (in my literal definition) is making light of it, making everyone laugh, and its best done to yourself. Cmon people, dont take things so goddam seriously, is your precious whatever so freaking weak and fragile it cant stand a little joke? Thats kinda sad. If everyone laughs at everyone, everyones laughing. Sounds better than a world where we arent allowed to laugh at things, or make light of everything, or tell jokes. Laughing at yourself is the best kind of laughter.

*flame shield up*
-_- OK, now you are taking that too literally. When I say freedom, I dont mean Anarchy-free or Liberitarian-free. If the world was a vacuum, I would be fine with those, but its not, so I mean Republic-free. I think the western world is free enough now. Its Africa and the middle-east that I was talking about. The ones suffering under dictatorships, child-soldiers (oh, look, I just remember another rage: People who hurt children [unless it is punishment]), militias that shoot first and dont even care later, sherria law (dont think I spelled that right). So to that end...
*even bigger flame shield up*

...I supported Iraq, Afganistan, and Vietnam. Just to name a few. So does my girlfriend, who thinks pretty much the same way as I do, but more "extreme." Plus, most of thoses countries mentioned also broke my "genocide" rule as well, so thier leader should be blown away on those charges alone. Now mix in that they are a dictator, I would be willing to say that not even a MOAB wouldnt be enough of what they deserve. As for my other super-rages:
If you live in America, show a little patriotism. You could move to another country sure...I bet you regret it in the first month, because what you can get away with in America, you cant elsewhere.
For respecting the military, I meant more the latter than the former, although I prefer people respect the military as an institituion as well. But I can handle them hating the US Army(tm). I CAN NOT STAND people hating the US army though. Those boys have been though hell to keep you safe, and then you go and spit on them because you didnt like the war. What happened to us?!! After WW2, soldiers came home to ticker-tape parades, military bands, people having put BILLIONS of thier own dollars into the war though War Bonds (a process I REALLY want to bring back). And now, nothing. They come home, and no one except family is waiting for them. I blame Vietnam for that, when people where waiting all right...to call them "Warmonger", "Murderers", "Baby-killers", and worse. I will NEVER!!! forgive the 'nam war protesters for that.
As for burning the American Flag, that is the downright, most unpatriotic thing to do, EVER! even in the event of protest! You want to protest the government? Hang the flag upside-down, wash it. But DO NOT burn it or stomp on it. That is not protest, thats saying you want America to be destroyed, just as you are destroying her flag. As for "its just a piece of cloth..."

*snip*

Ah ha, theres the thing. What YOU find a joke and what I find a joke are two completely different things. Sure, if both people present find it funny, then its a joke. But the second both people involved do not find it a joke, it is no longer a joke, and can be taken as an insult.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

To name a few:
-Big Businesses apparently trying to take over the government (COUGH*SOPA*COUGH*)
-Crazy fanboys/girls ruining things for everyone else
-Ignorant jackasses and hypcrites
-Tweenies, Twilight, Tweenie Pop, and the cartoon tv stations that try to build more upon "sitcoms" than, you know, CARTOONS!

 

[SneeringCanuck]

whenever I hear something along the lines of "The US saved Europe's ass in WW2"

While they didn't do it all by themselves, Europe would have been fucked without the assistance of the US.

True, in my opinion all big three allies (the Soviet Union, America and Britain)were all needed to secure victory, it's the comments that imply the US won the war single-handedly and didn't need the other two that piss me off.
