I don't have pet peeves; I have major psychotic fucking hatreds. -- George Carlin

Reigh beat me to my first idea, which was a thread for alcoholics to come together and post their grocery list, so I'll fall back on my second, which is a thread for people to come together and bitch about stupid shit whenever they need to.

Pet peeves. Or major psychotic fucking hatreds. You choose. I'll start:

Head phones, or, having never owned a pair of headphones for more than six months that didn't fuck up in one way or another. I've come to treat them like gold and they still go rotten, they fall apart, cords tear, speakers go out entirely. I'm the anti-midas of headphones. I've just gone ahead and gotten into a lifelong relationship with Koss, whose warranty as of today has never let me down.

Also, Michael Jackson's chimpanzee Bubbles being more important to the American people than Iran and Honduras. But that's for another forum.

Cords. Fucking cords. Whether it be headphone cords, computer cords, TV cords, no matter what cord, THEY ALL GET FUCKING TANGLED! No matter what you do, or not do, they tangle in knots so fucking hard to undo, I end up wanting to go on a killing spree. I'll plug some shit in, and not touch it for months, I won't move anything, but somehow when I go back there months later, they're tangled so fucking bad I start to think I'm the victim of some hidden camera game show. Fuck cords, man, fuck 'em.

Nice Carling quote. I'm still pissed I never got to see him live.

I have only major psychotic fucking hatreds.

People lately who say things in abbreviations either to try to seem hip or to be cute. Stuff like "B.F.F." or "O.B.G.Y.N".

(Another Carlin gem)"They need to be strangled in front of their own children".

I agree with abbreviating thing. I've noticed a lot of people saying "F.M.L." (fuck my life) lately, where the fuck did that one come from. I never heard it until like three weeks ago, now it's daily. I do the abbreviation thing somtimes, but jokingly. I do it to ridiculously long sentences, knowing no one will figure it out. For example, if me and a friend are going to the mall, I'd say: A.W.G.S.B.B.H.S.I.C.P.U.M.J.? Translation: Are we going to stop by Bob's house so I can pick up my jacket?

Fuck trendy catchphrases like "bromance" and "that's what she said".

But more importantly, FUCK YOU, KANYE WEST, FOR STARTING THE SHUTTER SHADE TREND. OF ALL THE SHITTY THINGS YOU COULD HAVE DONE, IT WAS THIS. NOW ALMOST EVERY PERSON IN THE WESTERN WORLD LOOKS LIKE A TOTAL DUMBASS, YOU FUCKING TURD.

I'd have gladly paid 2 grand that I didn't have to see Carlin. I mean... who wouldn't? :D

Anyway, a lot of shit annoys me, so its kindof hard to compile a list. However, I will say that people who constantly pop their chewing gum (not blow bubbles, just make a loud, obnoxious popping noises with their teeth) should be dragged out into the middle of a field and shot in the back of the fuckin' head. :mad:

What fucks me off, is when your in the supermarket and the idiot infront of you immediatly stops. You nearly fall over your fucking trolley cause of these dicks.

It works the same when your walking in the street, and they stop or they just stand in middle of the pavement talking to someone. Fucking dicks.

Oh, people in cars that stop to talk to someone on the street and hold up the fucking traffic by doing so.

people with rubbish basic ipod headphones blasting their shit chart music for us all to hear on tubes and trains, here's a suggestion how about getting some proper headphones that conceal the outside noise you fucking moron and then maybe try listening to good music!

sky and virgin media with their fucking 12 month moving house contracts, and the employees not doing their jobs properly. two weeks i have no broadband at home now as they didn't listen to what papa was telling them on the phone!

similar to heisenberg, twats in q who start random conversations with the person behind the till who then hold us all up. see curb! infact most of my peeves are covered in curb, larry david is right, we should not put up with this shit anymore!

chav idiots who destroy things for no reason

People who constantly use their phones during a film at a movie theater annoy the living fuck out of me.

And I despise people who hit their brakes when there's absolutely no traffic whatsover on the freeway.

That's all I can think of...for now. I'll think of more stuff that pisses me off. ;)

I HATE people that lack common sense and knowledge.

I share those same feelings exactly, but unfortunately, I've come to learn that stupid people make up about 90% of the population, so I'm teaching myself to not get as frustrated with stupid fucking idiots, atleast for the sake of that their small, child/monkey-like brains aren't big enough to the point where they SHOULD know better. I mean, really, I don't know if its America, or the town that I live in, but everywhere I go are stupid, loud, obnoxious, clueless fucking imbeciles who I'm surprised even had the mental capacity to dress themselves in the morning.

Man, do I agree with you there. It was to a point where for 3 consecutive months, my Headphones would end up breaking in some sort of way and I would have to buy a new pair. It's been pretty frustrating.

I should probably do the same and buy Koss and their warranty.

Bad driving almost makes me psychotic. I live in the capital city of shitty driving: Los Angeles. People here can't drive worth a damn. It's like the city is giving away licenses to any idiot who walks into the DMV and puts down some cash. People out here are distracted like toddlers. They're on their cell phones, driving below the speed limit. They're stopped at the light, which has turned green and they're busy looking at some stupid billboard for the next Matthew McCaughnehy movie. They're swerving in and out of their lane. Or they cut you off without even signaling you.

I've been challenged to a fight recently because I simply merged lanes after having my signal on for 6 seconds and some douche who was thirty feet away decided to speed up to 50 MPH because he didn't want me to merge left. The douche bag had those stupid fucking Lakers flags on two car windows. The sad part was that it was a fat guy who I probably could've fucked up but I'm driving with my girlfriend to Robeks after a hike. Why the hell would I want to get into a fight?

It really is insane out here. You're either bombarded by simpletons who can't drive the speed limit or there are assholes who drive BMW's and have to speed like crazy and cut everybody off because they're rich, have a penis complex and are generally unlikeable people who blast the most banal music through their stereos. I have come to the conclusion that if you live in my city and you drive a BMW, you are an idiot. There's no two ways about it.

I really can't stand these Speed Racer wannabes on the streets. On the freeway, I just hope a cop stops them going at 100 MPH. Not because I don't think cars should go fast but because they almost cause accidents trying to cut people off. It really pisses me off. I tend to fuck with them on the road because I am a pretty good driver and it's satisfying to fuck with these idiots' egos. So I'll slow down and drive right next to another car so he has no chance to try and cut either of us off. It's hilariously funny. Or I'll make them think they can cut me off but I give them no leeway. It's just a way to amuse myself on the road while also fucking with assholes who I wish would wake up. It irritates me just seeing them in my rear view mirror cutting people off. Not merging with their lights. Making people brake hard because of their stupid antics.

So if one day you hear of a conspiracy against BMW's in LA, know that I may have finally snapped and shouted out my window, "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!"

Oh, and I also hate runny eggs. It's like eating a bowl of yellow snot and white jizz with egg flavoring.

Addiction to technology is without a doubt my biggest pet peeve--especially to cell phones(or these stupid fucking Iphones now)

See, all of a sudden Iphones exploded because they are being marketed as YOU NEED THIS YOU CANT LIVE WITHOUT THIS APPLICATION. YOU CANT LIVE WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO LOOK AT THE WEATHER FORECAST AND BUY MOVIE TICKETS FROM YOUR COUCH. Its fucking pitiful this is what it is coming to. And everyone i personally know that has an Iphone are 90% of the time just messing around with it because they are bored.
One of my good friends has one and he went with me to see Up and then Drag Me to Hell, and i kid you not, he was texting/surfing the internet THE ENTIRE SPAN OF THE TWO MOVIES. wtf. i was incredibly embarrassed to be sitting my him because every so often he would make a phone call IN THE THEATER. i am never bringing that friend to a movie again. So embarrassing.

Another thing, along the same lines, are those fucking Bluetooth ear pieces. Are you so important that you have to have one of these things stuck in your ear all day? Does it get tiring to pick up your phone from your pocket/purse/whatever? Give me a break. When i was in high school i worked at a grocery store as a cashier/supervisor. And i remember this little fuckhead that would come in regulary, and ALWAYS, and i mean ALWAYS was chatting on that Bluetooth thing. No exaggeration at all, it was always in his ear and he was ALWAYS talking. Loud.
So i remember one time he came to my line and i asked my usual "How are you today? Do you have your Discount Card?" and he just mean muggs me and points at his earpiece like i was the rude one. i had this trick where i could put more weight on the scale when i was ringing up produce. so i actually made him pay more than it would have been. People that are friendly i take weight off. so yeah, dont fuck with me.

Point being, that i imagine a few decades in the future everyone will be so absorbed by technology it will be IMPOSSIBLE to see a movie without cell phone lights lighting up the seats, and everyone will be constantly glued to high-tech computer-phones.

Fuck cell phones.

whew.

Hey. I'm one of those people:D

I say 'everything' simply because I listen to all genres of music, as long the artist I'm listening to is good. I think more people should respond to that question with 'everything', because there are too many people who respond with "any 4-piece indie band you can think of in which the frontman whines rather than sings".

So I guess you could say that is mine, people who will only listen to indie bands, not realising that just because a song is about lost love it does not make it beautiful and that they pretty much all sound the same.

I shall return with more pet peeves later.

Strangers who feel the need to discuss random shit with me for no reason and can't take a hint.

Perfect example:

A week ago, I was in line at Walmart. I had two fucking things in my basket: maxi pads and booze. Now, to anybody with half a brain, those two items should bring up a red flag to LEAVE THAT BITCH ALONE. But did the old ass gray haired woman in front of me take the hint? Of course not. Not only did she insist on talking to me, but she asks me "Oh are those pads? They're a lot thinner than they were back in my day. Of course, I haven't needed them for at least 20 years."

Look bitch, I'm antisocial, I'm on the rag, and I don't want to fucking hear about your nasty dried up old vagina!

I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one driven #$#%! psychotic by these defects who can't function for more than 10 secs without calling or texting someone. I hate being behind these morons while in line, so busy talking about pure SHITE that they don't notice the queue has moved. Or they stand there making the person behind the counter wait. Or keep talking while ordering at the same time, then can't remember they need to open their wallet to pay.

Same on public transportation or, even worse, being anywhere neare these twats who drive while texting/chatting (notice I didn't say text/chat while driving).

I can't tell you how many times the urge is there to just snatch a phone out of some idiot's hands and toss it out the window/smash against the wall ... or maybe against their head. (The latter impulse is if they annoy me by holding up the queue for my morning coffee. :D)

What makes it all even more annoying is that you can tell they're talking about pure SHITE. It's never someone who's been called on an emergency and having to walk someone through something or whatever. It's always some mindless blathering.

I'm very selective who gets my cell phone and I keep it in silent mode more often than not. I've had to "train" some to understand that I do NOT get on the phone for mindless chit chat 80x a day, nor will I respond to insipid unnecessary texts. If it's not important, it'll wait.

Heck, depending on who it is, I'll say I don't own a cell phone. I've worked with people who expect/demand to be able to reach me 24/7 -- and that's just not going to happen unless the situation/project truly warrants it.

- ACLU volunteers that have swamped the downtown area. (Nothing against the organization, the volunteers just annoy me. Same goes for Children's International.)

Annoying: people who stand right by the driver on public transport when it's not crowded and won't voluntarily move even though a bunch of new passengers are boarding. And then give dirty looks if they're told to move out of the way.

Likewise, those who sit in the aisle seat and don't want to move in or out of the way so that another can have a seat.

I actually saw someone grumble "I don't want to move" from the handicap seats, then give the driver and wheelchair passenger dirty looks, even though there were plenty other seats to move out of the way to.

Seriously, what is wrong with some people?

Oh god yes. Even more so people who like to talk on the phone in the bathroom. Um, excuse me, but if I'm talking to you on the other end, I don't want to hear the sound of you taking a shit while we're having a conversation. And if that's the communal house phone you're using? That's just fucking nasty. Nobody wants to touch that thing after that. God knows what you've gotten on the thing while you were in there.

Absolutely agree with this one.

A few months back I had a serious issue with my eye and thought I may have lost my sight after an operation to correct it. I was off work for a while and in the middle of it my fiancee went on a school trip, leaving me alone for a week. It was bliss. I turned the TV off; tuned the radio off; chilled out. I think after three days I spoke out loud just to hear a voice, but what a week - I read, wrote, cooked and relaxed without any modern technology to annoy me!

I would love to do it again.

(Actually, however, when I went out - and I live in the countryside now - it was fucking scarily disorientating to hear people talking and cars driving past me. I don't know how Tom Hanks coped after he got off that island).

Same here. Mine have been held together with tape for a couple months now. Just the other day I experienced the expected death to the left side, no sound from it at all. So i'm in need of a replacement. I'm fed up of Sony. I'll probably go for Senheissers.

I used to have the same problems with headphones as you guys. Sometimes the sound on one side would drop, or the wires would start to tear or the inside just popped out. Then I decided to buy something more expensive and got myself Sennheiser collapsible headphones which are fantastic and have lasted about 8 or 9 months. And I also got some Audio-Technica noise-canceling headphones on my birthday that are bulkier but boy, the sound is magnificent. It's definitely worth shelling out a little more for a quality brand rather than the usual Best Buy crap that costs between $9.99 and $19.99 and lasts a couple of months.

Same here. My dad literally never shuts the fuck up. It's like a running commentary when in the car with him. I've confronted him about it, asking him if he is afraid of silence or something, but I dont think he understood what I meant.

Another great example of this is the cd of Patton Oswalt's called "Wolverines and Lollipops". Towards the end of the cd he is actually trying to be serious and tell a story and some douchebag just yells out WHOOOOOOO and ruins it. And Patton, thankfully being Patton, proceeds to rip on him and publicly humiliate him for upwards of 3 minutes.

Someone mentioned people talking in the bathroom, but I hate being talked TO when in the bathroom. My previously mentioned dad does this too. Its like he has to talk to me when I'm in there. And he always starts it off with "are you ok?". Yeah, dad, I'm fine. I'd be a lot better if you'd shut the fuck up and let me shit in peace though. Also, being a high school librarian, I can either walk halfway across the school and use the teachers bathroom, or hoof it halfway down a hallway and use the student. I always use the student of course and it seems like almost every time someone will come in, realize that im in there, then call someone else in and be like "omg dude someone is in here shitting!" then proceed to laugh about it like its the funniest thing ever. I never reply, because I dont want them to know its a member of the faculty for fear they'll do something to me while I'm on the can, but some day I'm just gonna be like "Yeah, omg, someone going to the bathroom in a BATHROOM! ITS SO HILARIOUS! Get back to class you little bastards!"

Oh don't get me wrong, facial hair on some men can be sexy, but only if it's well groomed. If it's growing down your neck and looks as if you've sprouted some kind of mutant fungus, shave that shit. If all it would take for you to pass as Santa Claus is some white hair dye, shave that shit. If your back looks as if you've slain a bear and are wearing its pelt for warmth, shave that shit. If your feet make you look like your last name should be Baggins and you've just crawled out of a Tolkien novel, shave that shit.

It's like jackson13 said in that it seems people are literally afraid of silence.


-People who insist that something is better than something else just because it is newer.
-Arguements, in which the person I'm argueing with doesn't care about making sense.
-Whenever bus drivers try and get me to pay extra (greedy fucking basterds)
-Feminists that think men and women are equals, rather than just deserving equal rights.
-Men who make a point of saying that they don't care about sleeping with an underage girl (OK, you'd 'still tap that', shut up!)
-People who talk in a droll tone and add "fuckin...." to their speech every now and then for no reason.

And of course, people who are sure that everyone else in the vacinity must hear their music.

A few things....


First, "expectant mother parking only." That shit can fuck right off. I park there all the time. Am I an asshole? Call me what you want, but 99% of the time those spots are empty anyways, because people fear being ticketed or towed if they park there. I did just that at my local mall (parking in the spot), and one of the rent-a-cops approached me about parking there and said I couldn't. I told him there was no offense to parking there. He attempted to disagree with me when I plainly told him I couldn't be fined, towed, or ticketed because it's not a state, local, or federal offense, nor is it unlawful since I'm neiter expectant nor a mother nor a woman. He then proceeded to tell me I shouldn't park there because it's frowned upon. Honestly, I couldn't give a fuck if someone sees a problem with me getting dibs on a front spot in the lot that's clearly open. Seriously, how stupid are these spots? Handicapped is one thing, but this is taking it a little far.

Also, people who want to argue with me at a bar when I cut them off because they're clearly being a drunken asshole and have had enough for 3 grown men. Look asshole, take your frat boy attitude and UFC hat and fuck off to your moms basement. You're not impressing anyone because you've shotgunned 7 beers and took 6 jagerbombs and got yourself a woman that clearly looks like she works for an escort service.

On that note...."that guy." I don't think I need to define "that guy" to anyone here. Everyone has there own definition of "that guy" to go along with the general definition of "that guy." "That guy" is everywhere, and is typically seen with an aura of "douchebaggery." I hate "that guy."

Trolls. Not the fantasy kind. The people that post (some of them on these boards) stupid shit with no meaning backing it. STOP IT!

And finally (for now), SPAM. Both kinds. I fucking hate it. It's annoying. It tastes bad. It clouds up these fine boards with bullshit. It smells bad. Spam is just bad altogether. No one wants a brand new unlocked iPhone or a WoW account. Fuck off. And no one wants $1 off other SPAM products. FUCK OFF SPAM!

I dont really have a name for these types of people so I'm just gonna dive right in with a rant and let everyone figure out who I'm talking about.

I live in a fairly small town. Population under 15,000. But we have a main road running through town, north and south, that is 4 lanes. If you're coming from the south, you go through a residential area, our downtown district, more residential then a business district before the road keeps going north out of town. I live in the further north residential area, right on that road. I also happen to live directly between 2 stoplights, making it so that when someone takes off from one light, they hit top speed right in front of my house before beginning to slow down for the other light. I've gotten used to the drag races I hear occur multi-daily, but what I havent gotten used to is all of these douchebags who think they are badasses because their cars are insanely loud. Look, I'll admit, im not a car guy. Sure, I like cars, but I know nothing about them. I enjoy going to car shows with my dad and looking at classic cars, muscle cars from the 60's-70's, roadsters from the 40's and 50's....REAL cars, you know?

So when I see some asshat driving up and down my street for hours at a time (its called "cruising") in a beat up 1996 Ford Mustang that is 3 different colors and missing a muffler (on purpose, so that its louder), I am not impressed. At all. And on the times when I occasionally sit on my front porch in a nice little wicker chair, enjoying the night air and cool weather, and reading a book, I really dont appreciate it when you fuckers drive by and rev your engine because you see someone who you know will hear and see you as well. And that goes double when I actually look up from my book, catch you looking at me out of your drivers side window, see you make eye contact with me, and then rev your engine directly at me. You are nothing but a pathetic little piece of shit with nothing better to do with your life than try to impress random people with your piece of shit car. Grow the fuck up (even though you appear to be 30 or older already), get a real job so you can afford an actual nice car, and stop polluting the air around me with the shitty noise of your mufflerless wannabe pimp-mobile. You annoying pathetic useless fucking cunt.

I think my biggest pet peeve is people who don't understand the point of a sidewalk. I mean, it has the word "walk" in the name. Yet the majority of people (and it's EXTRA bad here in Toronto) just kind of shuffle along, taking up as much room as possible, and stopping short whenever they see fit. I mean, I'm not totally impatient, and I'm not usually in a hurry, but I DO have places to go...at a normal, steady pace.

I kind of sound like a spoiled ass, here.

I hate the people that hold up the line at the convenience store because they're buying 25 lottery tickets, especially at 7:30 in the morning. If you want to waste your money on that bullshit then that's your problem, or victory if you end up winning. But when it starts taking 3+ minutes for you to get out of the way, its starting to waste my time and that's when problems happen.

Another peeve I have around my area is that certain buses go so slow that it's almost faster to get out and walk. Not only that, but some bus stops are literally 1 block away from each other. Is it really necessary to have bus stops 150 feet from each other instead of spaced out more? People really can't be bothered to walk an extra 1 or 2 blocks to get to the bus stop? Fix all of that and I won't have such a hectic morning commute to work.

I really can't stand these Speed Racer wannabes on the streets. On the freeway, I just hope a cop stops them going at 100 MPH. Not because I don't think cars should go fast but because they almost cause accidents trying to cut people off. It really pisses me off. I tend to fuck with them on the road because I am a pretty good driver and it's satisfying to fuck with these idiots' egos. So I'll slow down and drive right next to another car so he has no chance to try and cut either of us off. It's hilariously funny. Or I'll make them think they can cut me off but I give them no leeway. It's just a way to amuse myself on the road while also fucking with assholes who I wish would wake up. It irritates me just seeing them in my rear view mirror cutting people off. Not merging with their lights. Making people brake hard because of their stupid antics.


Be careful doing that stuff, man. Not trying to be ironic, but you could actually end up being the cause of an accident. There was something like a 110-car pileup in Florida around 2001-2003 started from some dude who was fucking around with some guy cutting off traffic. I don't remember the exact details, but at the end of the day, it was the "fucker" and not the "fuckee" who got blamed for everything.

Usually when I see people flying up behind me, I try to let them over. I never know if it's undercover cops or maybe even agents from the matrix that are going to shoot up my car if I don't move. If it turns out to be a douchebag, I catch up with them at the next exit and blow them kisses.

I'll keep it in mind. I definitely don't do that on the freeway. If guys want to go 90 on there, I get out of the way. I only do it on one street that's almost a residential street on the way to my lady's house. I just can't stand people who speed on these small streets. I can understand playing with your chances on a main street, but this is a street filled with houses and not too far from a school. It's ridiculous. And most of the time, they're people in fancy ass cars, so they're people with money who think they can do whatever they want. I only do it on my own. I keep my cool with my girlfriend.

Maybe it's because I'm in Austin and it's a cycling heaven, but I hate cyclers who don't know the rules of the road. ESPECIALLY those fucking Lance Armstrong wannabes who ride to go get coffee or something and are extremely yuppie and rude to everything around them.

I only ever drink to get drunk, but I've only been wasted a handful of times in my life. There is a difference.

Plus, I get migraines if I drink alcohol then stop half-buzzed.

I would prefer to drink a diet coke than an alcoholic drink. However, I always have conditions: a) I never drink alcohol until after 10pm and b) I never drink on a school night.

The only break in the rule is when I am at a festival, such as this weekend's TinthePark. I start around 6pm (This year will be slightly different, as I have applied for the police force and cannot supplement my drinking with other chemicals.

Otherwise, drinking alcohol seems pointless.

Brilliant! I agree with everything that has been said - Technology upgrades after you have saved for months to buy, what is now 'the old model' - Headphones that always crackle after a couple of months - CAPS LOCK ON - Twitter/Facebook its all pretty universal hatred as far as I can see. I really want to go back to what Cosmic Puppet said about driving though. I consider myself a pretty good and considerate driver, I let people in without a problem, I let people out without a problem and my time driving in England although traffic-jam-tastic, was kinda stress free. I moved to Japan this year and got a car, (they drive on the left so it is kinda easy to adapt), and I have to say that in a country known for its order and politeness, Japanese drivers are, without doubt the rudest I have ever come across, (and I have driven in Italy). These roads are lawless, people drive through lights, they cut you up, they never, ever let you out/pass, speed limit is just ignored it is almost as if they are in an indestructible bubble and can do whatever they want = and yes BMW drivers do seem to be the worst here too!! In fact just this morning, traffic was moving slowly along a road, it is pissing down here at the moment so everything kinda slowed down, we were not really going anywhere. I stopped to let someone out and the guy behind, (in a BMW) beeps me. So I continue to stop and let another person out (they looked at me as if to say "I cannot believe someone is letting me go). I could/should have stayed there all day just to piss him off!!

This madness does not just stop with the motorist also applies to the (hit us and you are fucked) cyclist, who without warning will cycle across you, they ride the wrong way down a street and they NEVER EVER look around at a junction. Since I have been here I have seen about a dozen people on bikes get hit, it is insane. Little twats on scooters...don't even go there!! I don't think my heart can take much more of this - I am off for a lie down!!

People who play music off their phones without headphones. This one really bothers me. I have a friend who when his phone rings he just kind of hold it up, looks at the caller ID, and then enjoys a few more seconds of his music before he answers it.

Listen, wow, that's great. Your phone plays music through the speaker, isn't that special. Never mind that it sounds like complete shit as all music does when pumped out of a tiny ass speaker. Point blank it sounds horrible no matter who you're playing or on what phone.

People out there who do this, don't kid yourself, it sounds like shit. The speakers on phones suck, they fucking suck! Stop playing your crappy tunes for everyone to listen to.



Also I'll add to the peeves people who walk around everywhere with hands free sets. You got that little boom coming out of your ear. You walk around in the grocery store, in the check out line, at the bank, talking loudly. Please, take the headset out and shut the fuck up.

Remember my earlier rant about the Mustangs?

Got behind one of those fuckheads tonight on a side road in my town. I'd place the car to be a '97 or so. Body beat to hell, no muffler...but, oh so nicely displayed with a light-up license plate frame: an environmental plate! So nice that you car about the environment enough to chip in extra money for the plate, then remove the muffler from your car thus totally contradicting your stupid little plate.

Oh yeah, and thanks for slowing down to 15mph in a 35 so that I would catch up to you only so you could floor it and try to impress me. Made my night. I had just spent the evening with friends having a nice meal and some drinks and as I was driving home the thought went through my head of "god, I really wish some dickwad would get in front of me in a Mustang and floor it so that I can go to bed fulfilled."

WISH GRANTED, THANKS MOTHERFUCKER!!!!

My point is that elevators should be for the disabled, people with buggies and the elderly. Essentially people who are unable to use stairs and escalators.

I can't tell you the amount of times I've waited for an elevator with a buggy or somebody who is wheelchair-bound only for it to arrive SEVERAL minutes later carrying a lone dude in an expensive business suit, or a pair of 20-something chicks out to lunch...or most commonly, a bunch of gurning chavs who have kindly pressed the buttons on every single floor level before exiting.

I've been waiting for an elevator with a pushchair and literally been pushed and jostled out of the way by perfectly able, YOUNG people...in a shopping centre with escalators AND stairs. This happened to me a few days ago when my young Son was particularly distressed (I found out that he had a nasty throat infection the next day) and it just made me feel quite sad.

I think that we currently live in a society that is quite resentful of Parents and their children...maybe I'm imagining it, but I do feel that I'm looked upon as a nuisance at times...especially when my child cries out or even shouts and shrieks in a playful, happy manner. People have a real I-don't-give-a-fuck attitude about them...but it's even more evident now I have a little person with me 24 hours a day.

I never used a lift before I had a baby and pushchair...except when I was with a disabled friend. I just think the people who take a lift out of convenience rather than need are somewhat inconsiderate...but you're perfectly entitled to disagree with me.

Arms or armpits? I personally think that anyone who shaves their arm hair - male or female - is a fucking moron. Why on Earth would you do that?

Both. If they are blonde or light brown-haired it doesn't "peeve" me so much. But if they are a brunette, good god shave that shit! It's like saying, "Hey look! I'm Italian."

No thank you.

I personally don't like guys that shave their legs, arms, chests and pits. But I hate when women DON'T do this. Sorry ladies but I think smooth ladies more attractive. I know it's more work for you.

I hate people that do all they can to impress random dumb stupid 'Bitches' at the bar, the ones who are visually stupid.'Yeah guy, it's not tooooo obvious you wanna get in her pants.

I don't like when people call girls who sleep around a 'slag' or 'slut' while the guy equivalent gets called a 'stud' not fair one bit. I would personally never have a one night stand, it's cruel and ridiculous. Love making should be kept between people that actually care for eachother.

Fortunately I'm fair-haired...but I still find the idea of women shaving/waxing every inch of their bodies absolutely preposterous...especially the arms, back, chest areas.

I imagine the hair grows back with the appearance of being much thicker and darker and I find the concept of a stubbly body or a bowling ball smooth torso far more unappealing than the natural downy hair that most women have.

Being Italian, Irish, Indian or any other race or nationality that may suggest slightly more body hair than the accepted 'norm' is nothing to be ashamed of. Italian women are some of the hottest chicks in the fucking world for crying out loud.

I guess I just don't get this obsession with women looking like hairless pre-teens. De-fuzz your legs and armpits by all means but isn't it nice to maintain just a little bit of mystery... *ahem* well pruned lady garden *ahem* ...?

I guess I'm just too retro in all aspects of my life.

That's cool.

I shave my legs and armpits...partly to conform, mainly to just feel clean and fresh.

Everybody should make at least some effort to 'maintain' themselves, but I just think that we have too many hang-ups nowadays and our expectations reach beyond what is appropriate. People have enough going on in their lives without having to waste several hours a week pruning and shaving and waxing every inch of their body in a bid to be considered attractive.

I mean we live in a world where it's perfectly normal to undergo treatments such as anal bleaching, labioplasty and vaginoplasty. It's effing insane.

Here's one specific to messageboards (though I haven't seen it here, but have on many other boards):

Little whiney bitches that pitch a fit because things don't go their way and post a dramatic thread announcing that they can't take it anymore and are leaving ~forever~...

...only to be back posting again a few days later.

Wow. Are you that desperate for attention? Really? I mean, I've decided to leave boards before, but have simply quit posting, announcing my departure only to specific individuals via private message.

It just irritates me when people do this, especially when it's somebody I already didn't like. They get my hopes up that I'll not have to deal with them anymore, and then I only get a few days break from them.

Bad driving almost makes me psychotic. I live in the capital city of shitty driving: Los Angeles. People here can't drive worth a damn. It's like the city is giving away licenses to any idiot who walks into the DMV and puts down some cash. People out here are distracted like toddlers. They're on their cell phones, driving below the speed limit. They're stopped at the light, which has turned green and they're busy looking at some stupid billboard for the next Matthew McCaughnehy movie. They're swerving in and out of their lane. Or they cut you off without even signaling you.

I've been challenged to a fight recently because I simply merged lanes after having my signal on for 6 seconds and some douche who was thirty feet away decided to speed up to 50 MPH because he didn't want me to merge left. The douche bag had those stupid fucking Lakers flags on two car windows. The sad part was that it was a fat guy who I probably could've fucked up but I'm driving with my girlfriend to Robeks after a hike. Why the hell would I want to get into a fight?

It really is insane out here. You're either bombarded by simpletons who can't drive the speed limit or there are assholes who drive BMW's and have to speed like crazy and cut everybody off because they're rich, have a penis complex and are generally unlikeable people who blast the most banal music through their stereos. I have come to the conclusion that if you live in my city and you drive a BMW, you are an idiot. There's no two ways about it.

I really can't stand these Speed Racer wannabes on the streets. On the freeway, I just hope a cop stops them going at 100 MPH. Not because I don't think cars should go fast but because they almost cause accidents trying to cut people off. It really pisses me off. I tend to fuck with them on the road because I am a pretty good driver and it's satisfying to fuck with these idiots' egos. So I'll slow down and drive right next to another car so he has no chance to try and cut either of us off. It's hilariously funny. Or I'll make them think they can cut me off but I give them no leeway. It's just a way to amuse myself on the road while also fucking with assholes who I wish would wake up. It irritates me just seeing them in my rear view mirror cutting people off. Not merging with their lights. Making people brake hard because of their stupid antics.

So if one day you hear of a conspiracy against BMW's in LA, know that I may have finally snapped and shouted out my window, "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!"

Oh, and I also hate runny eggs. It's like eating a bowl of yellow snot and white jizz with egg flavoring.

Oh Cosmic, I feel your pain. I live in South Florida and the drivers down here are beyond stupid. Probably not nearly as bad as L.A., but still pretty fucking ridiculous. I hate driving because there is ALWAYS assholes on road cutting me off, not signaling, going 25 below the speed limit, or 25 above it. Assholes racing in their little suped up Ford Focuses and Honda's, assholes who race and zigzag past people to try and get to a RED LIGHT faster...it all drives me insane.
What really kills me, is not signaling. Nobody signals. They just weave in and out of traffic like they are fucking Nascar drivers. I've seen two major accidents as a result of not signaling. It drives me up a wall.

P.S. God Of War, where oh where are these avatars coming from? You have easily become my favorite Schmoe because of these avatars :)

I work in retail and of course your always gonna get your fair share of douchebags and assholes but one thing that pisses me off beyond belief is when your walking around asking customers how theyre doing and everything, ask if they need help and its always the one fuckhead thats on a cellphone that needs help and there not even talking about what they need at the store theyre talking about everyday shit. And they actually expect me to hang around until they get off their fuckin phone for me to help them, Im sorry but if you need help then you need to get off your phone and ask me your question insead of pointing your finger at me and just expecting me hang around until you finish your conversation. Ive got other things to do than wait on your ass, there are other customers and other things Ive got to do. So sometimes I just walk away on these people, act like Im helping other customers then come back a few minutes later and a lot of times they are are still on the phone yacking away.

I was reading what Miss Vicky wrote on the first page about people talking to you about random shit especially at the grocery. I dont mean to sound like a dick but when Im at the grocery my mission is to get food and whatever other stuff I need for the week and get out as fast as I can, I dont want to sit and just start random conversations with people.
One thing that also pisses me off at the grocery is when your behind someone and the stop and turn their buggy in a matter to which it blocks you from getting around or to what you need because their big fat ass is in the way. And then after a few seconds they look at you and there like "O Im sorry" and the tone they use they act like your inconviencing them because now they have to move again, what the fuck.

I really hate mayonaisse, I always have. I eat salad dressing but its just the plain mayonaisse that I hate, I feel like I can taste the egg in it or something. My family likes it but I dont want anything that has mayonaisse on it (burgers, pasta salad, potato salad etc) and whenever I go to a restraunt that states they do have mayo on their burgers I clearly ask for no mayo and they respond by, "No Mayo?", like I dont know what Im talking like I actually do like mayo and I do want it on my burger but Im just sayin that to mess with their head or somethin. And it also seems like if they do screw up my order and put it on they load that fucker down like theyve put double the mayo on there. It just really pisses off.

-People who swear excessively during a conversation. I don't mind a few swear words, but if they're gonna use the F-word and S-word in every other sentence it just diminishes any point they're trying to make. It'll be hard for me to take them seriously. It's even more annoying when people swear when it's not necessary.(Where's the fuckin' bathroom?!)

-People who don't turn off their cellphones or put them on vibrate in the movie theater. It pisses me off even more when people talk on them while the movie's playing. If you need to answer the phone that bad then step outside.

-I do get a little annoyed by crying and screaming babies in public places.

-People making cracks about my weight. I'm very skinny. I weigh a little less than 120 pounds. Back in high school people would ask me if I ever ate. I do eat a lot I just don't gain weight. It's not my fault.

I fucking hate this shit too man. The History Channel is supposed to be about history not UFO, World with out humans, or fucking chasing Big Foot. As much as I do like Ice Road Truckers and AX Men they really should be on the Discovery Channel on the same nights as Dealist Catch.

I know some people that are just so negative about everything. They just want to shit on everything.

For example, this dude I work with knows I am a huge movie buff and was interested in some recommendations so I asked him if he had heard of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind...he says "Definitely not, that sounds stupid"

I was like "I havent even told you what its about yet!"

"Yeah but the title sounds really retarded so I doubt I will be interested"

Jeez, I try to help a brother out and he just shits on it already. Moron.



I also HATE having to wait on people for long periods of time. Believe me, I am very patient but sometimes it drives me through the fucking roof with some of the shit I have to deal with.
For example, one of my buddies takes forever to get ready to go out. He takes a ridiculously long shower, then spends an eternity on his hair etc. Keep in mind this dude is a straight male, not some sorority chick.
Now since he is usually the driver, we have to wait on him like bitches.
My friends and I will give him a hard time saying "We arent going to the fucking Oscars dipshit!"



Also, I really hate it when people brag. There is no reason to ever brag...EVER! Its especially pathetic when people brag over the lamest shit too.
This one guy I went to college with bragged that he got a job lined up before he graduated...selling insurance in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Do what I do with people like that -- tell them a much earlier time than the actual time that you need to leave or need to be somewhere by. Not possible for all events but it makes for a nice change of pace to arrive on time. And if they comment just tell him the truth, being late all the time is a sign of not giving a crap about others. It's a lack of respect for others travelling with him and to anyone hosting an event. Tell him if he doesn't want to go, just say so but if he does, then be mature enough to be ready when he needs to be. You're all tired of him holding up everyone.

Ha! I have the same peeve. I ride a bike myself, and I drive. But I hate it when bikers do this. They ride in a row of three people on a street instead of a single file line. It's fucking annoying and most of the time they do this because they want to be next to each other so they can talk. You can still talk in a single line, idiots. You might have to shout more, but the world doesn't revolve around your thoughts on your Schwinn or fixed-gear bike.

I also hate the biking culture in LA. They are some of the most stuck up assholes I've met. They feel like they're some kind of saviors of the world because they ride a bike. They all dress alike, they have this condescending attitude... because they ride a fucking bike. You go to certain bike shops to fix yours and they literally don't even try to help you unless you have plugs in your ears or wear jeans rolled up to the knee or dress like you're almost homeless. It's really stupid. I wish these people would get over themselves. You're riding a fucking bike at the end of the day. I do too. Big deal.

That's my girlfriend's little brother. The weird thing is that whenever I go there, he seems to calm down a lot. And it's not all company either... it's weird. He's just confused like most teenagers and thinks his parents are "against him" somehow. Hopefully, he'll get over it.

I hate when you don't know whether a person needs help or not.

A guy in a wheelchair was pushing himself up a hill this evening. It was very hot, and he was fucking puggled. We watched him struggle as we went past in the car, but did not stop "just in case".

We circled back and the guy was beetroot.

Still we did not stop - "just in case".

My conscience was bothering me. There is a hospital nearby - what if he went out for fresh air, went down the hill in his wheelchair, then had issues getting back up the hill? Still, "just in case".

Finally, after going around four times, knowing that my question was condescending and embarassing, I got out the car and asked the guy if he needed a push up the hill.

HE FUCKING DID! DESPERATELY! HE WAS AT A LOSS TO EXPLAIN WHY EVERYONE PASSED HIM BY! CRUEL BASTARDS!

I explained my predicament as I pushed him up the hill. I did not want to embarass him if he was fine and dandy, but I could not simply ignore him in case he was struggling.

Could have gone the other way. I know plenty o' people who would have found my actions intrusive and diminishing.

Ha! I have the same peeve. I ride a bike myself, and I drive. But I hate it when bikers do this. They ride in a row of three people on a street instead of a single file line. It's fucking annoying and most of the time they do this because they want to be next to each other so they can talk. You can still talk in a single line, idiots. You might have to shout more, but the world doesn't revolve around your thoughts on your Schwinn or fixed-gear bike.



I was driving once, making a left turn, going up hill. It was a 2 lane road, and as I got to the top of it, there was literally 30 bikers in the road. I was tempted to play human bowling, but soon realized that would not be a good idea.

It's probably been mentioned. I also hate people on their bluetooths that start a conversation with you, and then next thing you know they put there finger up at you to give them a second. I sit there, continuing to talk looking like a jackass.

And I hate at the grocery store how there's always a lady that has her cart in the middle of the aisle, 3 kids running around not giving a shit about your personal space, while she's looking on the shelf for a sale item. I just wanna take the cart and move it down a few aisels.

People who take their sweet time walking on the sidewalk in the middle of a weekday.

I live and work in New York, Manhattan proper. My job requires me to do errands outside with some hustle. So I get all kinds of pissed when its a crowded sidewalk and I'm being held hostage by Sandy and Sally Sunday Stroll-Along taking up all the maneuverable space ahead of me so not only can I not proceed forward at a normal mid-day New York pace, but I can't by-pass these motherfuckers as well. It takes everything in me not to kick these people in the back of the kneecaps, leap over their fallen selves and yell back "Move motherfucker!".

And I'm not talking about old people or the disabled. I'm talking the young an able-bodied just strolling along like they have the Lovin' Spoonful's What A Day For A Daydream playing in their head, and they're keeping up with the rhythm!

In New York, you walk, like you drive. Fast people in the middle, slow people along the curb and when you stop you move to the side of a building and stay the hell out of everyone's way. Do NOT just stop in the middle of the busy Manhattan sidewalk and just stand there! That is grounds for getting stomped.

If it's used in a movie in my case, it's fine, however, I do agree here in terms of a real life situation. I know there are black people who want to 'take back' that word, but what (I feel) they fail to realize is that 'nigger' was once meant simply as a general insult, calling somebody an 'idiot'. It had nothing to do with ethnicity, so really, those who want to 'take back' that word, are just calling each other fools, which in my opinion is kinda counter-productive.

"Yeah, you called my phone."

Having a phone feature that's been commonly available since the mid-90s doesn't qualify you as a detective, so stop using your caller ID like you're cracking some kind of case.

I always leave apologetic messages to curb these losers, but sometimes things slip through my fail-safe. As in today, some teenage girl comes up to me asking to use my phone. I thought she was locked out of her apartment or something. It turns out she left her cell phone in her dad's car, and apparently this merits an emergency worthy of approaching strange looking men carrying a black leather bag and looking like he just worked an overnight shift at a mental health house. Okay, cool, whatev - be a friendly neighbor, all that good stuff.

15 minutes later, I get a phone call and answer, "Hello." It's the girl's mom who responds by accusing me of "making my daughter think she lost her phone!!!" --- What the fuck she was talking about, I have no clue, and I tell her this in a very polite manner, but she continues to rant. I cut her off, and point out that she called a strange number (with an area code that's listed 2500 miles away, mind you) and is accusing a stranger of something that sounds like "nonsense." She doesn't seem to understand, and continues talking nonsense. I politely explain what happened, how I neighborly allowed someone to use my phone because they led me to believe they were in some sort of distress.

That's when she begins explaining to me how my number came up on her caller ID, and that's how she knew who called. I tell her that I have figured this out and go on to tell her that she might want to worry less about going off on strangers by way of calling strange numbers, and worry more about the fact that her daughter seems to think it smart to inform a "strange looking man that she's home alone without a phone." They lady stutters and says, "Okay, have a good day."

"Oh yes ma'am, and you have a good day at work."

So yeah, Caller ID is for telling you who is calling. It's not a voicemail message, and you own a cell phone, not a pager. Stop thinking there's a case to be solved because you have some random number that could belong to anyone. (especially in this case, since I heard the daughter leaving a message.)

Oh, wandering the mall today with no sleep waiting for my car to get down with the garage, I must say this observation is ace. What about women with strollers who speed walk through the mall and come straight at you like, get out of my way or die!!!!

I've bumped strollers a man time and feigned pain, but more often than not, I'll say something like "Whoa! Someone's in a hurry!"

What about...

People who, when you are at a register at a store, and another cashier comes up, they will speed past from behind you in line to cut in front and get to the new register. That shit pisses me off. It should be first come, first serve, not biggest asshole wins. This doesn't bother me so much at like a department store where there are multiple lines for checkout, but I'm referring to like counters at gas stations, delis or the sort. Often I will step up next to them and put my stuff down and look the clerk right in the eye and say, "Sorry, I was here first." That's only if I'm in the mood though, which isn't really that much, but it is still often just because of how much this happens.

What I mean by this phrase is that a few girls I have spoken to talk about how they have been raped by boyfriends but 'slowly started to enjoy it' during the act, as if that justifies it somehow. These girls are now fairly 'saucy' young women, one is still with her rapist, others are generally promiscuous.

I thought this was what you were referring to, if not I apologise for bringing such seriousness into the thread. :o

Another sexual pet peeve:

When people do a lot of making out on the dance floor, its just uncomfortable to look at but what I have noticed recently is people full-on dry humping each other, cowgirl positions and everything. If your not dancing then get off the dancefloor and get a room, one that doesn't have another 100 people in it who have to look to the ceiling avoid such cringeworthy acts.

Recent peeve. It aggravates me when people just wait for their turn to speak rather than actually listen. It happens in every day life and of course has to happen on the internet as well.

I made a post about the woman who got Dystonia. I simply said it was tragic and my friend wrote a joke and a half-hearted "This is why I never get flu shots" and then another friend uses my post as an excuse to lecture everybody on the evil media and how they use this as a way to scare people. He also went on about how people are so stupid for not knowing what a "one in a million chance" is. I couldn't even tell if he was inferring that stuff about me or my other friends or if he was ranting so I told him to cool it.

Waiting for you turn to speak is a stupid thing to do. It just makes you look like a jerk. And now my friend is trying to act like he did nothing wrong, when I think he knows he tends to do that. Just don't do it.

Congratulations, you now get to waste thousands of dollars and many years of your life on a screaming, shitting, needy child. Doesn't sound appealing to me what-so-ever.

On the God note.. How about when people praise God for giving the pilot the ability to land the plane safely, but don't blame God when the plane crashes?

Precisely my point. People either shun ability or they are ashamed by it.

Which is why it is no wonder why we virtually live in an "each according to his own ability, each according to his own need" society.

People who do a little bit of travelling, and think they know all of the ins and outs of the world. Also, their home country is suddenly is highly inadequate for them.

Me: How is your semester so far?
Them: Ah, it's ok. I just hate this country. I wish I could be back in _______ where people care, you know? Everyone is so ______ there, and the food was so much tastier!

I hate, hate, HATE this.

Whoa whoa whoa!

Despite not having experience with either, I can tell you that having AIDS is nothing like being pregnant. Maybe the particular person who did describe being pregnant as a miracle were having fertility problems, its an exaggeration yes but no need to get upset about it.

I agree with the God thing but (suprise suprise) from a different perspective. Whilst I understand how the acknowledgement of skills as blessings from God may annoy some people, there is also a lot of blaming God going on, especially for so called atheists.

For example, when bad things happen a lot of people are quick to say stupid things like 'well, that shows God doesn't exist' or 'well that means God can't be benevolent'. Also, people who say things like:

"I'm open to the idea God exists, but I hate him"
Why?
"Because he hates me."
Why? Why would he hate you specifically?
"Because so many bad things have happened in my life. If God exists, he doesn't care."

Ignorant motherfuckers.

Bad arguments, but more specifically, bad analogies, make me want to choke a bitch.



I was in a discussion about dental work, and we were talking about dental bridges vs. dental implants. For those unaware, a bridge is a dental restoration used to replace a missing tooth by joining permanently to adjacent teeth. Either edge of a bridge are caps placed over the permanent teeth, which must be filed down to a nub. A dental implant is an artificial tooth root replacement that's just screwed right into the jawbone - no filing down of your healthy teeth necessary.

I was advocating for implants, because they don't require the defilement of perfectly fine teeth. The other person made an analogy comparing teeth to hair, arguing that filing down your teeth is no different than cutting your hair.

It took great restraint not to smack this person.

I went to school with this dude, and I've known him for more than 20 years. The guy has never used a PC in his whole entire life. One day he tells me what I'm doing wrong on my computer. You see, he's an expert, cus he knows everything, right? So, I tell him he doesn't know what he's talking about. Then he starts an arguement with me trying to make out that I'm the jackass in the equation. I put him in his place and told him straight up..

"Since you know all about computers, how about coming around and fixing mine?"

He looked at me like the smartass that he isn't, and then shut up. That was 5 years ago. And he's done me the favour of not talking to me.

I really despise smoking. Seriously, every time I walk outside, someone's lighting up a cigarette or a blunt and I have to endure breathing in that stench. Even when covering my mouth or nose, the smell's still there. How on Earth do people find this relaxing?

Worst Bad Habit Ever.

Another peeve are overcrowded buses. Even when the bus is still packed, the driver's dumb enough to let more people in! Same with the trains at times. I usually end up smooshed or enduring people's bad breath/body odor/super-loud earphones.

And usually, the people who get on the bus only have one or two stops!

One thing that annoys me to no end is girls with their double standards on what turns them on.

For example, a lot of women will say they love a guy that is athletic, in-shape, cut, has nice muscles/six pack. Fine, thats your preference.

BUT then if I say "Yeah I really like a girl that exercises regularly, stays in shape, has a nice body and a firm ass"

Suddenly, I am looked as a superfical pig. I was told on another forum that "its because of guys like YOU that girls develope eating disorders" Da fuck?!?:confused:
Jeez, I am not asking women to look like a Victoria Secret Model but I like females that take care of their bodies.

There is nothing wrong with liking a girl who takes care of themselves. How many girls actually are going to say that I like guys who are slobs and eat a gallon of ice cream before bed. I know I'm not. Please. I am attracted to men who take care of themselves; I'm not saying they need to have a six pack.

Liking a girl who takes care of their body is totally different than expecting them to look like some airbrushed model.

Comcast cable is requiring everyone who doesn't subscribe to a digital cable package to use a digital converter box. This is a fix they can do on their end, but instead they are requiring set top boxes at the customer's request. The set top boxes aren't HD-ready, so the user loses all of their broadcast channels in HD, unless they upgrade their package to get a HD ready box. To boot, a lot of people just don't like the way the set top boxes look, but no, if you want to watch broadcast channels in HD using a cable connection, you have to have these boxes.

This doesn't affect me, because I am already paying for the HD service with my package, but it does because sometimes when I'd have 2 things recording, I'd turn my TV to the direct cable feed ad watch a program. Now that's affected. It also affects dinosaurs who are using VCRs to record, and people who have wall mounted TVs without an entertainment cabinet-type set up.

It just peeves me. It peeves me rotten.

Wow, I totally agree. This is one of the most annoying internet arguments I come across.

However, allow me to bring up a peeve of mine, which is kind of contradictory to Terminal's argument: I hate HATERS. What I mean is, I hate this whole (predominantly internet-oriented) sub-culture of people who think that they are "cool" if they hold an opinion that is contrary to popular opinion, for no other reason other than to be "different". This is best observed in the waves of "backlash" that strike after highly-regarded movies are released. The best recent example is The Dark Knight: When it came out, everyone was creaming their pants - critics and audiences alike. Probably because it was just a damn good film: entertaining, thought-provoking, thrilling, well-made, and just one of the most solid entertainments in recent memory. And yet, for a while in the months following its release, in some internet circles, it seemed "cool" to hate the movie. Like "oh, look at how edgy and daring my opinion is, I dare to defy popular opinion". Well, I'm sorry, but shut the FUCK up - disliking the Dark Knight for the sake of being different DOESN'T make you cool, it makes you a douchebag. Is it really that hard for people to accept that something can just be UNIVERSALLY loved? This same phenomenon happened more recently with Toy Story, albeit to a far more limited extent. But anyway yeah, I hate this shit.
