Thank you for understanding. If only all the things that bother me could be demonstrated like this.Nox13last said:
-News sites that only talk about video games less than 5 minutes old, when 99% of the gaming world is still playing things like TF2 and COD4.
-Pre-Rendered trailers of stuff completely unrelated to gameplay
-Pre-Rendered trailers of stuff completely unrelated to gameplay OR story
-Halo
-Fast-Food restaurants with abysmal value, and my coworkers' strange attraction to them when getting lunch
-"Should Of" in place of "Should've"
-Apple's marketing department
-People who buy iWhatevers without knowing that they don't have SMS, don't work with Windows Media Player, etc...
-Halo
-Publishers trying to "backseat drive" the development of a game (nope nope avatar customization is the way to go, stop working on fixing the crash to desktop bug and add fuzzy hats)
-People who post overly long lists of things on forums that no one's gonna read, because everyone's just keeping in mind the stuff they're gonna post themselves.

yeah, about those attractive people thing... may we have more? ^^Cpt_Oblivious said:
also, to contribute to the thread (I'm careful about this now I've got a probation for not doing so lol) really persistent people who insist on insulting me for no good reason get on my nerves.
The way he repeats whatever another character just said to him gets on my tits sometimes. To be honest that list is hastily drawn up, he's not all that irritating, but he came to me at the time.UNKNOWNINCOGNITO said:

thank you!Lusperus said:
i would have been beaten as a child if i did that.
makes me wonder what kind of manners people are teaching their children.
or rather, which ones they're not teaching them.
oh i was so there for that.NoMoreSanity said:
[is that allowed?]
totally uncalled-for suspension.
i used to do it, and i hate when i still get this 'it opens your mind!' crap.Guitar Gamer said:
i just got hungry and high. not much fun, personally. though each to their own.
anyways, on to my own pet peeves, since i had to make sure i wasn't just repeating everyone.
adults who still seem to think someone in their [late] teens still is a child. i know everyone grows up at different rates, whatever, but give someone a damn chance to speak before you put them down for their age.
FPS games that utterly lack storyline. ruins all appeal for me whatsover. i'm not saying they suck, just that i personally don't like them.
people that try way too hard to be something they're not in social situations.
woman drivers who give the rest of us woman drivers a bad name. add slow drivers and also those fucking 'i'm going 65 in the fast lane' moron drivers.
people who make a huge damn deal about cursing. the more you use a 'bad word', the less meaning it has. hence why the 'n-word' was dropped so many times in huckleberry finn. to lesson the meaning.
[can't tell you how big of a shock it was to see the word on the dry-erase board in big letters that morning... XP]
people who 'smoke' cigarettes but don't know how to / look silly doing it.
and, since i could keep going for hours... i'll finish with...
the sound of people eating & clocks.

Teen bashing threads. There was a rash of them in April, around when I joined. They're just annoying and condemn everyone in an age group.
Also, in an act of hilarious hypocrisy, the damn music kids listen to these days. I can't stand your crunk and bad R&B and Disney and rappers who's careers end after a few months.

Finally, someone who feels the same ;_;gentleben said:
She's hot but, come on world, there are much hotter women. There was some ad on the other day honouring her as the hottest woman on the planet the other day. I said nothing but, inside, I raged.
Crap. I always get this wrong. Escalators. I don't mind people standing still on elevators, that wouldn't make sense.SultanP said:
