What is your pet peeve?

[sixtyandaquarter]

douchenizzle fo' shizzle my hizzle
That.
And I still can't stop myself from throwing that in places as a form of annoyance.

People who correct my spelling when it doesn't matter.
I can see on a forum built around discussion, or laughing at IRC if I spelled something just so horribly wrong - or it was just funny and struck a nerve.

But when someone looks at a sketch with hand writing that's nearly impossible to read, and they spend most of the time looking at the little notes like "legs to short" and crap that I write there, or if it's for a project writing in some small little notes about the character, and out of no where instead of telling me if any critique on the piece they say "This should be 'they're' not 'thier'" it really annoys the hell out of me almost as much as entire paragraphs that consist of one long run on sentence.

I hate it when people think it's okay to just grab my hair and play with it, like on the elevator. Yes, my hair is very long. No, you cannot rub your finger juice all over it. Long hair does not equal an outgoing personality, people.

I hate it when people cough or sneeze into their hands, or, even worse, just into midair. I have some immuno problems, so THANKS FOR SHARING, ASSHOLE.

I hate it when people chew open-mouthed. Smack. Smack. Smack. Nom. Nash. Gulp. Smack. UGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGH

I hate it when my knee pops as I'm going upstairs, I feel like an old fking lady at 23.

I hate it when my cats puke. They don't often, but I stepped in a "treat" this morning. Why can't they puke on the tile? Why must it always be on the carpet? Why must they always vomit right where I'm going to walk without looking? *scrape vomit off foot*

I hate people who consider themselves "gamers" when they only play sports games. Fuck you, you're only a true gamer if you play atleast a somewhat broad selection, assface. If I try to talk to you about Samus or Dante or Lara or Sonic or Cloud and you just stare blankly, you're not a fking gamer.

Lots of things piss me off. There're more to come, I'm sure.

Now hurry up and get here Sexty so you can relieve some stress :D

What people actually DO THAT. Just like RANDOM PEOPLE TOUCH YOU I cannot comprehend that.

Mine is probably immigrants. Each day I read something new in the paper that affects me in someway regarding immigrants and "their beliefs". I think the latest was muslim doctors refused to wash their hands before treating/operating because it was against their religion to do so. Have you ever heard anything so fucking rediculous in your life?

If any of my family died from infection and this reason brought it on I'd probably chop them into 700 pieces, feed them to pigs, collect the pig's shit and use it as manure to harvest crops at my local farm.

But ultimately I can get into trouble for waving my OWN COUNTRY'S FUCKING FLAG because they find it offensive in one way or another. But the point stands. I don't really give a flying fuck if I'm being racist here. If immigrants are causing my life to be harder and less enjoyable, I want them out and I want them fucking out now. GET THE FUCK OUT!

 

[Despain]

ewww who would immigrate to england.

 

[$t3v0]

Too many fucking people!

 

[Venetia]

What people actually DO THAT. Just like RANDOM PEOPLE TOUCH YOU I cannot comprehend that.

Yes. It's disgusting. Once a little kid started eating my hair. Women see it and say, "oh! what pretty hair!" and they just start touching it and trying to braid it. And wtf do you do? Like, when I'm at work, I don't want to be a cunt, so all I can do is just go "oohhhh, th--thank ... youu" and try to inch away (which is hard on an elevator).

Ugh, next time I'm just gonna say, "Oops! Don't touch that. I got's teh lice." or, "You like? I stole it off a cancer patient."

sheesh. But anyway that's why I'm cutting about a foot off it after Sexty visits. (That'll still leave it just under my shoulder blades)

--------------------

@$t3v0: omg yeah. Try growing up in So. Cal. Every sign is in Spanish and for an entire school year I had a spanish math book. There were more illegals than citizens in some classes, and even that wouldn't have been so bad, because I'm not racist, but god damn they just blared their mexican music all day and night, got pregnant like crazy, and were all scrappy. I understand about immigrants fucking with you. Some of my best friends are latino, but the ones who perpetuate the stereotypes make my blood boil.

 

[sew my eyes open]

My pet peeve... Well I would have to say the most annoying thing to me is when I'm in my laboratory hard at work on my subject, and then the bastard wakes from his coma-like state that I worked so hard to put him in.  Then the silly bastard goes out running into the street hollering all about him, "POLICE!!  POLICE!!! SOMEBODY HELP ME HE'S A MADMAN!!!"  Then I have to quickly subdue him before much notice is taken.......... :grin:

Other than that, I'd say my pet peeve is when I specifically order something, in plain English, at a restaurant or such, and they get it wrong.  So you tell them, they take it to be redone, they give it back, and the SAME THING IS STILL WRONG!!!  :pissed:

 

[$t3v0]

I know, It was a bit of an outburst, But you can relate to the anger it causes! Especially when it effects your taxes and environment. It was stereotyping and I was meant to but a side note that this wasn't aimed at legal immigrants, but It's just the way I truly feel. I'm not going to sugar coat something in order to avoid racism or offense just because there may be a member here who's from that background. I'm not aiming my rant directly at Muslims, I'm directing my rant at illegal Muslims living in the UK.

I'm just sick to death of my country popping out new restrictions & taxes in order to cater for ILLEGAL citizens that are catered for (better than a large percentage of born and bread English) just because they managed to sneak the bar at customs. It's almost like a video game of some sort. If they manage to bypass the evil officer they are given a free house and essential living materials.

People with bad personal hygiene really get on my nerves.

@Stevo: So? aren't their plenty of british people just living on government benefits doing nothing? at least these immigrants try to find jobs. Nobody has any control over where they're born.

 

[$t3v0]

Holy shit, WHAT!?

TRYING to find jobs? They suck our jobs dry. The way it is in Britain at the moment is an illegal immigrant can either:

a) Work and get paid less (Usually) Taking a job from a LEGAL citizen (of any race).
b) Not work and recieve benefits from tax payers when they shouldn't even be there in the first place.

There aren't really any words you could use to justify the system. It's a fucking joke.

 

[iceplosion]

I agree with most of what you're saying but that taking a job from a legal citizen thing isn't right, they're the better candidates for those really crappy jobs, employers (at least the ones who employ legal immigrants) don't give a damn if you're legal or not, if legal citizens weren't so lazy then this wouldn't happen, if they did the same amount of work for the same amount of money then they would get the jobs.
you've got your own opinion though and I'm not going to argue, thats not what this topic is for.

also another pet peeve:

when people you don't know get all close and touchy-feely, I hate that.

This is one of my pet peeves as this comment is utter shit.  Immigrants typically band together in cheaper housing from the gov't and split the bills between multiple families.  It has nothing to do with the citizens being at fault here.  Sure if you were going to live with 12 people in a two bedroom house.  What crap.

 

[Venetia]

Oh lord this isn't a debate about illegal immigrants. Allow people to have their damned peeves and either shut up or debate them in the symposium.

Another peeve of mine: math. MATH SUCKS!!! :rock:

 

[Ellie]

One of my peeves is people calling it math

I guess it's being British.

Maths is short for Mathematics (plural), so shorterned it's Maths. Plus Math sounds weird.

 

[Venetia]

"Maths" sounds weird.

"What're you studying?"

"Maths."

You crayzee Brit's

Oh, it is. But I wanted to be your pet peeves. So I could peeve you. With pets. And peeving pets of petting peeves.
