Thought of another one.

SOAP OPERAS. Besides how much the shows lack in morals, my mother wastes her
life on them, and any quality time we could spend since she either works or sleeps.
As soon as the theme songs start, I want to drive an icepick through my ears. -__-

I REALLY hate people that mumble when they talk to me! A lot of times, I have to ask like 2 or 3 times to repeat themselves and I STILL can't understand what they're trying to tell me! Sometimes I feel like shouting "SPEAK UP DANG IT!!!!" :lol:

I also hate people that think they're "bad" just because they can act tough and swear. A lot of the kids at my school are like that! Let's see how tough you are when someone pushes you to the ground or punches you right in the face! Those are things I've really wanted to do just to get them to shut up and show everyone what they're really like, but I've never done it because I'm basically a wimp (LOL!) and because I don't want to deal with the consequences.

People that constantly ask me what we're supposed to do in class also really annoys me. It's like "The teacher just explained and the directions are either on the paper or on the board. Either open your freakin' ears or do some freakin' reading!" XD

And finally, having to repeat myself really gets on my nerves. I don't muffle my speech when I talk, I'm loud and clear! So when I have to repeat myself, I'm like "Are you depth or something?" :lol: My voice can also sound a little annoyed when I do repeat myself.

When people drive too slow.

I mean come on, your car is a small car, it is capable of going fast, why drive 25 UNDER the speed limit and back up traffic behind you? (like on a one lane road)

I mean I have seen people who drive 40 MPH in a 55 Zone, going down a hill and their car is nice and a huge SUV, and they go FORTY?! It aggravates me.

People who use McDonalds as their own personal office... This annoys me, of all places, why do people need to take their books n' junk to a place like McDonalds to study or do business work? Its beyond me. Laptops on the other hand I don't have a problem with.

Today, almost yesterday now as I'm writing this, this older woman and a teenager came in and sat down at the longest table. The woman dumped all her junk on the table and started doing whatever she was doing. They didn't even buy any food either. Then some other girl comes walking in and sits down at another table, and I am assume the two girls were friends, and one of them was asking for a pen. I wasn't paying close attention. I believe it was the girl with the woman asking the girl at the other table.

Why do people need to go to McDonalds to do their office-like work? I mean, do they NOT have a place to do that at home? If they really need to do that stuff away from home, why not the library? I know my local library has large tables and small office desks for that kind of thing. I mean sure, McDonalds is a public place and all, but it would be like going to Wal-Mart and taking a nap on their sample furniture. The staff would tell you to go home to do that kind of thing.

The last time I was there, in December, someone was sitting in the back with their papers out doing a job interview over the phone... I personally don't think the customers should have to listen to that. Have they ever heard of privacy? You would think that there would be a more appropriate place to interview someone for a job, even if the job was for McDonalds. And get this, it was somewhere around 8:00PM when this took place. I mean, come on! People go there to eat, not to eavesdrop (or whatever you would want to call it in that case) on their business.

A lot of mine have already been mentioned but I have a few more.

-When people tell you to do things you're already doing/ just about to do.

Example--My dad tells me to go to bed JUST as I'm turning off my bedside lamp for the night. It annoys me SOO much.

-When you have a problem and somebody offers their help, they ask if you did the most obvious thing.

Example--while I was trying to get help on a computer problem. "Did you restart your computer?" "No, I never thought of that before in my life." :roll: It's like they think I'm an idiot.

Censored songs
I't funny when they try to skip a "bad" word in the lyrics. You know what they was supposed to sing anyway.
Sometimes this is so annoying, especially when they censore non-swear words such as "war" or "blood"(Actually happened in Eminem's "Like toy Soldiers"). What the heck America?!

When people in front of you walk extremely slowly/in the middle of the road.
Walk faster or out of my way! I also hate when there are big famillies walking with their children and they are blocking all the way. There are other people who want to walk this road, idiots!

Wolfaboos - Especially those 'omg, humans are so evil, they must be killed' types. Look, unless every single one of these idiots are vegan, they can eat their words - literally. If they eat chickens, pigs, cows and whatever, they are supporting animal slaughter and thus they must take a gun to their own heads for their blatant hypocrisy, which I expand on below. FYI, I'm not a vegan; I just don't go around preaching that we should save a certain animal when I eat about 5 different other kinds of 'inferior' animal.

Hypocrites - Oh my God, I hate hypocrites with all my heart and soul. Liars, I can handle because I am one myself but hypocrites just drive me crazy. Let me draw up a real life example: I'm not the healthiest person in the world but I don't consider myself dangerously overweight - actually, I'm a normal weight for my age - but what I could really live without is my brother, who is the same age as me and weighs about the same as a young killer whale, giving me a long lecture about nutrition in vegetables because I don't like garden peas. Not only is this hypocritical, it is extremely patronizing and blown way out of proportion. Stop it.

White knights - Crawling up a person's backside isn't going to get your brownie points or free art, just stop it. This just goes for anything in general, really.

Passive aggression - If you don't like something/someone, just say it. Don't make some sarcastic comment about something or say some secret code word to your friends about someone who you've probably talked about in private. I get this in university a lot. All you can do is perform a hard headdesk because you're aged 18-21 and that's like high school behaviour.

Babies - Let me just quote Michael Winner: children should be locked up until the age of 10. Enough said.

Those are about the ones I can think up right now. xD

One pet peeve of mine is YouTube's policies getting stricter and stricter. I swear, eventually they're going to make us PAY to get stuff up, just to make sure "copyright-material" isn't put up. Honestly, if it's like a movie still in theaters or something, I understand--but fricking Casablanca? You had to take Casablanca down? YOU'RE SINNERS! (Okay, and the new Pokemon episodes...)

^ Relating to this. I'm sorry if this comes off as offensive to some, I just had to post this. xD

Baltoboos
Overly obsessive Balto fans. They put stuff in their profile like "Balto is my whole life!" "I will love Balto 4ever!!!" They're also very defensive because these people tend to be the people who think Balto 4 is going to happen. No matter how many times you tell them it won't happen, they attack you and hate your guts because you talked bad (from their point of view) about their precious Balto.

Irritating and creepy.

Oh lord. My dad nags me ALL DAY LONG. It's like he dreams of telling me what to do the next day. I feel your pain, Mighty.
Here's one of my HUGE ones:

People pretending to be something they are not. In particular, I've been able to spot a lot of people wearing color contacts lately, and maybe its just me, but it peeves me off that people can look like something they weren't born with naturally and get away with it. Or act like it either. I used to have a friend who was all normal with me but then in public she'd act like I was some stranger and as if she were popular. But, back to the eye thing... I just can't see why people don't love the person they are. What's so bad about being you? You were born unique for a reason. I find it dumb of people to taint their image so that they'll look or act different when they're the same person no matter what anyways. This is one of my biggest and worst pet peeves, as I feel like slapping the sense back into anyone whom I notice this in.


AMEN. I hate colored ontacts .__. I mean, i can understand for halloween or something if you maybe want to have red eyes but, all the time? NO. You look like you're supposed to look man! Embrace it, be yourslef!

I also hate clones. I mean of people of course. I hate how everyone is always wearing aeropostale, and hollister and american eagle and all of those poopular brands, but they are all wearing the SAME CLOTHES! And then people laugh and make fun of ME becaue i wear "guy shirts"? Dude. "You laugh at me because i'm different, i laugh at you because you are all the same" My personal motto.

This. But I use try and use Jamendo for my video draws, since the music from there is under Creative Commons and it's a lot better than that god-awful music they have on the AudioSwap thing. Most music I use in my videos probably just get blocked in Germany. Poor Germany, the video draw section of Youtube must be a barren wastelend to them filled with 'this video is blocked in your country'. 8(

Ha, Mighty basically summed up what I wanted to say about people obsessed with this franchise that they won't admit something is wrong with it. In a less offensive manner.

Another pet peeve I want to add and this just may be my browser or something, I don't know, is the typing system on this forum. Say you want to correct something and you try and click somewhere, like at the end of a sentence. You end up at the BEGINNING of a sentence and have to use the arrow keys to get to where you need to be. As opposed to other sites I visit (DA, BBA), the type editor on this forum is quite annoying to use. A small pet peeve, but one nonetheless that I just want to bring up. xD

I'm dealing with one currently, so...

White knights
Bunch of rude little kids who bash you and call you a troll because you dared to say negative opinion about NOT THEIR work. Who is a troll and no-life now? I'm not tracking people's comments on non-my stuff just to call them names. I can smeel a huge hypocrisicy from there....
By the way I've met people like that in real life. When I had argument with my friend, her friends wrote me rude comments on my blog and messenger. No real purpose or no real help for thet girl neither. Just to make my life worse... Duhhhh... Middle school trauma never ends...

Hot-headed Kids
I hate it when elementary-school aged kids walks around like they are "all that" and they think they can talk to you however they want. I also hate it when i walk by them and all of a sudden they whip out their phones, I mean honestly people. What second grader needs a phone? And then they are like "I demand respect" and you know, they're way younger than you so you're like "Ahaha. no." and then they keep coming up with these stupid remarks and come backs and you're like "Is that the best you can do? Because that's sad."
