Which of Man's Inventions annoy you the most?

[shwnbob]

Phones when I'm playing video games they always ring when I'm watching a cutscene.

 

[RavingPenguin]

Guns, they are mean.

I'll counter with the classic, "Guns dont hurt people, people hurt people."

I dont like my hippocampus, it interrupts my fights.
EDIT: Scratch that I meant my hindbrain, the one that controls instinct.

 

[Srkkl]

Disney, or should I say Satan.

 

[Srkkl]

Concrete. We make a durable building material and suddenly we decide that entire countrysides need to be buried in it. All for a larger population that sparks a vicious cycle.

Nature always finds a way, just wait, all in good time.

 

[Jon Etheridge]

Business suits.

 

[feather240]

Disney, or should I say Satan.

More like Satans's dad. The "Re@l W0rld!"

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

Viagra and other viagra like drugs.
The last thing we need is people who shouldn't be banging each other, banging each other, especially when they're very old.

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

Religion.

Did you even read the op? No mentioning religion, atheism, etc.

 

[gim73]

god.

The existance of many gods is fine with me. The single, all powerful monotheistic god invention annoys the crap out of me.

gods have their place, controlling their domains of power. Loki with his tricks. Selene with her moon. That's all fine. Your parlor tricks don't fool me. Once you start saying that yours is the only true god and everyone else can conform or die, that is the height of stupidity.

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

Air fresheners, photo frames, sundials, coasters, submarines, and dentists.

Why the hell would sundials annoy you? They just stand there. And coasters? You have some really strange things to be annoyed by.

Coasters make that damn clattering sound because they stick to the bottom of your cup and fall every time you pick up your drink.

That really depends on what they're made out of. You've just encountered some horrible, horrible coasters.

Edit: Cork coasters, now those are some good coasters.

Edit edit:

Spoiler: Cork coaster

Edit edit edit: Cork table mats are also really good.

And they look cool too.

Anyway, Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream.

Tastes like I'm eating ice cream with breath mints mixed in. It always leaves that funky taste of "I just brushed my teeth."

Also, whatever the heck in mint chocolate chip ice cream, toothpaste, and mouth wash that leaves that taste in your mouth.

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

Religion.

Did you even read the op? No mentioning religion, atheism, etc.

I pointedly ignored it!

Why?

 

[Seanchaidh]

Also, just for reference: Don't say religion, or atheism, or anything of the sort. For serious.

But one of those is the invention that annoys me the most. :|

 

[Worgen]

search bar

 

[Canadamus Prime]

The telephone. Damn thing always rings when I'm in the middle of gaming or watching a show or a movie or something. I take small comfort in the fact that I can turn my cell phone off.

 

[Tanfastic]

Different gaming companies.

Come on people! Wouldn't you just love if EVERY game came out for a system that was so advanced through the power of all three major companies combined?

 

[CodiferL]

After the first atomic test Oppenheimer wrote that "the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose." Nuclear weaponry should never have been created, and it's so friggin' hard to put back in the box once it's begun to proliferate. Fuck those asshole eggheads who decided that science needn't rein itself in in the name of morality and have given us the power to more or less destroy ourselves utterly.
