I hate being told I'm lucky to be able to play a musical instrument.

Do they seriously think I was able to play as well as I can (which is nothing special, mind) when I was in nappies? It couldn't have been anything to do with sixteen years of practice, could it?!
GRRRAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH.

On a related note, I also have a distinct dislike for people who, after hearing me play quite a complicated piece (by my standards, at least), complain and demand that I "play something we know".

Is it any wonder that what remains of my faith in humanity is slipping away?

The people who go on FailBlog [http://www.youtube.com/user/failblog] videos and type in the comments "Did he die?" regardless of the video's contents. Sometimes, they might try to be witty and distort the meme ("Did die he?", "Die did he?") or justify it with some pseudo-fact ("Two seconds after this clip, a meteor collided with the area and killed everyone.") But everyone else in the video tells them to shut up or get the video posters to block the users. The comments are sort of turning me off the videos now.

Those comments sour what are pretty funny videos, but pretty much every video on YouTube is soured and turned into manure by the comments beneath it, anyway.

Look at FailBlog's videos and give me a cent for every "Did he die?" or variant. You'd be made destitute in twenty minutes and I'd be rolling in filthy money.

People who spit when they talk. Seriously, keep that shit indoors. I don't want your spit, wear a muzzle or something.

Do you know who I prefer? Your mother.

Har har har.
Was that really necessary?
Of course it wasn't.

What is your point?
That you insulted my mummy. Grr.
Technically he said he preferred your mother over Jewel Staite, isn't that kind of a compliment?

YouTube. Period. Someone should cybernuke that place.

Oh gods, yes that's annoying. It's even worse when they block the aisles in a bus, completely blocking the passage to my friends who kept a seat for me, blegh.

I also hate it when people take things I say out of context and spread the word instantly to anyone in a 10 meter radius.

Also when someone asks me about something and then walks of or asks another question before I can even answer.

There's a phrase to counter that problem.

It's goes along the lines of "Excuse me, I'd like to move past."

Apply knuckles or knife if you're rejected.

It grinds my gears when I make a statement that goes against something I just said beforehand.

It makes me look like a hypocrite, and I'm sure people don't want to hear me being a hypocrite. (to be honest, All hypocrites grind my gears, but I didn't wanna exclude myself.)

It's currently something I'm trying to fix. Until then, I focus on my hate of PETA, who grinds my gears even more.

I hate vegetarians. Not all of them, just the ones who believe that eating meat is morally wrong (as opposed to those who CAN'T eat it for medical reasons or whatnot).
If your god gave you fangs, he'd have wanted you to tear into animals, given that they're shaped for ripping.
But the kicker is that FISH is not considered MEAT, per se. This goes into uneducated territory for me, but I think I've seen vegetarians eat fish without any objection. What's the difference between a fish and a cow? Really. They breathe(-ish), they bleed, they live, they make babies. How can you protest to eating beef, but happily eat cod, or something?

Don't get me started on the vegans.

Add: Christians in general. What's with the whole "God is great" thing? My friend told me that in the Bible, God kills over 1000 people (I forgot the precise number), while Satan kills only seven. And Satan is...the bad guy? ...I know who I should be rooting for. I might be damned for all eternity, but at least I won't be turned into salt for doing a number two.

Anyone who actually got upset about Obama swatting the fly or anything like that. I hate people who get upset to easily, even though I do too.

And, hell, I hate PETA.

People who stand still on elevators. I wrote a lengthy rant about this, but I don't to go looking for it. Just take my word for it: I have good reasons.
Surely you mean escalators? Or do you want people milling about while waiting for their elevator to reach their floor?

Just a lil' word of advice to anyone posting here:

That's different. He was a moron.

We're just having some non-specific venting. I doubt anyone will call out anyone on the site.

hmmmm some days so many things.

I would have to say what grinds my gears on a regular basis... is the common idea of what "dating" is. Everytime I date a girl they go nuts with jealousy and freak out when I tell them I'm dating other girls... is that not what dating is? We're not married, we're just dating.... grrrr it annoys me.

Getting past the people is one thing, getting past the tripwire of bags and junk through heavy breaks and turns is an entirely different thing.

This is the usual situation that bothers me:

As you can see, the blockade (red balls) has locked themselves in, it's too troublesome to go towards the entrance, past me, to allow me to pass, and my destination is too far away for them to go the other way. Their bags (red things without outlining) increase the inconvenience.
And there's another seat in reach which makes it seem a little silly to go through all that trouble.
