Religious fanatics, anyone picking on my nationality, people deluded with visions of ridiculous ideals.

People who think that your language or dialect is stupid or simple. One of the great examples I can find is English people who jump into discussions about soccer and start yelling about how it's supposed to be called football. We can't call it football over here, we already have a sport called that! I'm sorry you don't like our name for a sport, soccer is a British term! It comes from a shortened form of association football. I also hate people who knock American football just because it has a funny name and people wear pads. If you've ever played it you know that it takes skill and guts to stay on the field and throw yourself in front of a 300 lbs monster.

Sorry, I had to get that off of my chest, I do not wish to promote an uncivilized arguement filled with mudflinging it's just that it annoys me to no end.

My boyfriend, timescales and the fact that the two don't mix.

Can I do this?
No.
How about now? - (insert two hours of the same thing here and you have most of my weekends)

People who believe pro-drug use propaganda because they want it to be true.
Thank you. One of my friends even went far enough to argue that the human brain is SUPPOSED to receive the chemicals in pot because he believes that smoking pot can't possibly be bad for you.

Hm, I'm sure there are a lot of Utd fans who have reasons to support the club other than glory hunting, but most of the ones I come across are quite annoying, deriding other clubs for no real reason and gloating for all they are worth. I've nothing against the players or the team, just some of the fans who I've met seem a bit daft. On the other hand I have friends who are Utd fans (who doesnt?) and the banter is usually pretty ace :p

So there. :p

Also I forgot to say on my first post: People (mainly on this site) who claim to be asexual. I doubt that is actually the case. Some people are genuinly asexual I'm sure, but to have about 20 of them on one forum seems quite unlikely.
I see you support City. I hope you've been a fan for a while and not just because you came in to a lot of money recently. If there's one thing worse than Man Utd glory hunters, it's Man City fans who are only Man City fans because they are the richest club in the league and think that money can buy them success.
My Dad and his family are from Manchester. If I supported anybody else I suspect they would disown me :p

I know money does not buy success. You can buy the best players around but theres no saying you can make them work as a good team, as I'm sure you're aware. Anyways, lets see how this season goes eh? Must admit yesterdays performance was less then stellar, but hey :p

Raging whiny sports fans? With 300 million people and SOO many sports teams per state? Oh yeah we have ourselves quite a few: Raiders fans, Eagles fans, Cowboys fans, Duke University fans and oh dear god Cubs fans.

On a seperate note, some sports fans here got it through their heads to take the entire state of Texas on their mad crusade with them by spending taxpayer money to build some goddamn football stadium, a $1.2 billion football stadium yes indeed that there makes me a very sad man.

"Epic" and "Fail". God, those words drive me up the wall.

On a related note, elitist nerds and hipsters. You know who you are.

When someone uses the word "fag" and is directed at me. I do not tolerate bigotry and the offender almost always gets their ass handed to them.

People who refuse to put their lights on when driving in poring rain. It isn't so you can see better, it's so everyone else can see you!

People who say female gamers don't exist...
People who say females aren't good at videogames...
People who think all teenage girls are Justin Bieber fangirls...
People who start hitting on me when they find out I'm a teenage girl...
Racism.
I could go on for a while but I'll stop there.

Rude people. It costs nothing to say thank you when I've held the door open for you, even a smile would do. I'm going to dropkick the next women who doesn't even acknowledge I've held the door open for her. Unless she has a big boyfriend... then I'll let it slide.
People who expect you to be polite too often annoy me though. I'm quite a polite person, but sometimes I'll be thinking about something and then they'll go 'You're welcome!" in a really irrate tone, and then I realise that they did something for me and I had no idea.

I tell you what I really hate though, is when people who claim to love geeks and say they like to dress geeky. That probably didn't explain it that well, but hear me out. A good example is a girl at college who really loves Big Band Theory, mainly because of Sheldon (also because a cleaner at college looks a hell of a lot like him). She claims stuff like she loves him and his geekiness; yet I'm apparently a loser and should get a life for being a geek/nerd. It just pisses me off.

ALSO, Spotify ads, especially when my connection is a bit iffy, which causes the adverts to pause, and there's no way to go onto a local music track without restarting it.

When my friends tell me this conspiracy theory and tell me to watch this video explaining it all in detail. 10 full length youtube videos. That's 100 minutes they want me to waste...

Calumon: When people tell me I'm Annoying... : (

Calumon is not annoying. Yuffie from FFVII is annoying.
This guy. Nah I'm joking, I think it's a kind of interesting social experiment, seeing how people react. It also takes a lot of balls for anyone over a certain age to openly admit to liking something marketed at kids.


The one thing that grinds my gears immensely without fail, not kids crying in public but rather the parents who acknowledge the child's crying and do bugger all to stop it. And I don't mean like babies crying, that's kind of unavoidable, it's the kids 5-8 who scream with a few sobs inbetween.
