milo Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Does anybody have any pet peeves? I mean, something that really grates on your nerves. I have a couple. The biggest one is playing Warcraft on Battlenet. It seems to me like everytime I'm doing really well, like taking on three guys at once and crushing all of them, something goes wrong. The host will lag out, and we'll all get disconnected. Or, if he's a noob, the host will BOOT ME just because I'm about to win. God, I can't tell you how much that burns me up. Also, I hate it when my parents make me shave. I hate shaving. And I also hate it when certain people make dumb threads in the swamp about conspiracy theories. They're kind of entertaining at the same time though. k, I'm done bitching. Anybody else want to complain about stuff that bothers them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I hate conspiracy theories as well. It was a plane that hit the Pentagon. Flight 93 was taken down by the passengers and remaining crew, not shot down. And don't get me started on Roswell and the Kirkland Triangle. I also hate noobs. Newbs are alright, but noobs piss me off. Leet speak. Die fools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallucination Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I hate it when I play WoW and I Sap or Gouge (yeah, I'm a rogue) someone, then someone else comes along, deciding to 'help' me by breaking it with an attack that does 30 damage when I was about to Backstab for ~140 damage.

Diego Varen Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Good Thread Milo. Anyway I don't like (Hate is a strong word, although I use it most of the time), annoying Members on any Forum. This is one I'm talking about (No offence to him, but he got on everyone's nerves). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samnmax221 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I also hate conspiracy theories. Then there are the jerks who show up in the Sam and Max boards from who knows where, and start telling us what threads should be locked down or who is out of line. These jerks are allways too bothered to read "rules sticky" that Jake wrote up a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jae Onasi Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 People sitting around on welfare when they're perfectly capable of working, and using up the limited dollars so that those who really need it can't get it. Child abuse--I hate it. Drunk drivers, especially when they hit and kill innocent people. I better quit before this list gets way too long.

Jeff Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I dislike tall people I don't really have normal pet peeves, but more there are certain people that I know that I can't stand anything they do because whatever it is is annoying. So whatever they do is my pet peeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Lady Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I hate crunching noises (like when someone's eating pretzels or potato chips). I don't really get mad at the person, I just hate that sound. It drives me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Devon Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 communists A pity. The only pet peeve of mine that comes to mind now would be sniffing noises. I absolutely detest it whenever someone makes a sniffing or snorting noise all out of the blue, without even bothering to get a tissue. It makes me want to pull their noses off.

Igonorence really drives me crazy. Like when the truth is so obvious, but nobody does anything about it. My biggest is Dumb People, I can't stand being in the same room with a moron.

mimartin Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I dislike tall people Sorry...but I can't do anything about it. Most of my Pet Peeves have to do with driving. 1. I hate anyone that goes slower than the posted speed limit in the fast lane (left lane in US). 2. People that don't yeild right of way. 3. Drunk driving in any form. 4. People that take up two parking spaces. 5. Impolite drivers. 6. Drivers not paying attention (reading, watching videos, talking on cell phone in heavy traffic…) 7. People throwing trash out their windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davinq Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Oh, I have a new one! People who refuse to accept that science and religion can co-exist. They can, fools! Hear hear! God created science! Now for my other pet peeves... Unlike Jae I will carry it out in its entirety. Here it goes: - Obnoxious staff @ my school. - Noobs - Preps - A few forum members (not naming names, of course.) - Multiplayer on SWBFII - My soccer team coach and his twin sons - chalk - Politics threads (they go on forever, even when the posters are beyond any chance of changing anybody else's minds.) - American football (please don't flame me! *ducks*) - Darth Malak's evil laugh (Malak's laugh has no mojo, I still feel it needed something special.) - The pic linked in ED's sig. - Forum users with bad grammar. (I just can't stand it when it's impossible to understand half of what they're saying.) - Cynicists (I am one myself from time to time, my moods are pretty fluctuate.) - Potatoes. - Homophobics. - Teenagers who always have their hands in their hoodie sweatshirt pockets.

Bimmerman Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I know that these are mostly car related, and some might seem confrontational, but they aren't intended that way. The following list is just my views: -People who drive under or at the speed limit in the left lane in the US -People who don't know what "flash to pass" means -People who don't understand that when a faster car is coming up behind you, CHANGE LANES! -People who think autocross and fast and the furious are analogous, or those who think NASCAR is racing. It's not, it's just an extended drag race, which is also not racing. -People who bump tunes at 3:30am on a friday night in the dorms -People who swerve for small animals(i.e. Squirrels, Praire Dogs). Their lives are not worth risking your lives and those of drivers around you. This is doubly important for people driving top-heavy cars like SUVs and Minivans -SUVs and Minivans -Driving an automatic transmission. It's just not the same, nor as fun. I realize that 95% of Americans drive auto, and a significant portion of them do not know how to drive a standard stick shift. However, for those of us who prefer total manual control, being stuck with an automatic for any reason is torture(e.g. rental cars). -People who force their religion on others. I don't care if someone is religious, but trying to force their morality on others who don't share their views is more than a little annoying. Especially on the evolution debate: there are two points of view, deal with it. Unless I am very mistaken, the Bible and Torah/Talmud and Qur'an teach and espouse tolerance for others. Be tolerant of those of us who do not share your outlook on life. ...and drunk drivers. Our laws are way, way, way too forgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Having to wait a week or two for new episodes of Bleach, or House, or whatever series I heppen to be watching.

JediMaster12 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 religious fanatics Which fanatics are you talking about? I could be considered one when I go on about the glory of being saved when the opportunity presents itself. What do you mean? I guess what really pushes my buttons are the cruel things that people do to children. It makes me so angry especially pedophiles. Another peeve of mine is when I work at a station and I have a rhythm going and someone comes along and messes something up. Another big peeve is the nonsense over what is PC or not. I tell ya, it drives me up the walls especially when there was a huge fuss in my town about changing the public schools' mascots because their original mascots were related in some way to Native Americans.

Mace MacLeod Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 You have to watch British TV to know this first one: Barry Scott. I hate this guy so much I get light-headed whenever a commercial of his comes on. For those of you who don't know, Barry Scott is (probably among other things) the pitchman for a substance called "Cillit-Bang". I think the North American equivalent would be CLR. Here's an excerpt from his ad: "HI!!!!! I'M BARRY SCOTT AND I'M GOING TO SHOUT AT YOU FOR THE NEXT MINUTE ABOUT CILLIT-BANG!!!!! DO YOU HATE UNSIGHTLY LIMESCALE AND RUST???!!!!! CILLIT-BANG WILL GET RID OF IT LIKE NOTHING ELSE IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE!!!!! LOOK AT THIS PENNY!!!!!! IT'S OLD AND GROSS!!!!! LUCKILY, WE HAVE CILLIT-BANG TO CLEAN IT ALL UP AND GET IT NICE AND COPPERY-FRESH!!!!! NO LONGER WILL PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU WITH DISGUST AND CONTEMPT FOR HAVING TARNISHED PENNIES!!!!! CILLIT-BANG!!!! YAAAAAAHHHH!!!!! Or something like that. It makes me wish for a setting on the remote lower than mute. Other things I hate: Irish work permit laws. The international Chinese communist conspiracy. People who breathe through their mouths while being Pro-Bush. The fact that after the police dig up your backyard and find all the bodies, it's always that loser geek down the street that you barely know who goes whinging to the media about how you're a "crazed loner".

HerbieZ Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 He is a legend Things that annoy me are older people who hate younger people in net games. People who say the typical comments like "Oh a typical bunch of teenage players, figures" and "I hate all these 19 year old idiots who ruin the game" normally they are right but im a teenager and i never act like an idiot while playing a game. Yet still i get this sort of crap all the time. People who call you a "Camper" or "Spray and Prayer" in fps games. I also hate those stupid mmo annexims like "Leroy jenkins" and those stupid "Boom headshot!" videos which are about as funny as cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
