Being ignored
Slow drivers
People who don't speak English well
People who claim their dad arrested Steve-O from Jackass. I've met two people who told me this in person and a few others online that told me the exact same thing.

Award shows in general. I just have a fear that something bad will happen. It is just a phobia of mine, public humiliation, bad jokes, rude speeches, and otherwise classless behavior on an award show. There are just too many of them, like reality shows.

Nope, Kanye was unexpected. I am just glad that it is no longer the "big deal" it was in the media last year. After a week, I got tired of hearing about it, so I said nothing and did something else. I get nervous and try to watch something else.

Today's Review scores or "How a 7 is considered a crap score and that anything below a 10 is bad and totally defeats the purpose of even having a 10 point scale".
FPS I-shoot-first-at-point-blank-and-still-died lag.
People complaining about Justin Beiber. You have a right, but you're REALLY overdoing it.
Nostalgia goggles.
The fact that I STILL don't have a girlfriend.

Looking for something seemingly everywhere, but not finding it. Walking up continuous steep hills and getting cramps in your calves. People who disregard you because you're a 'younger person'. Eg. waiting for a bus, I was first in line and waiting there the longest, these women come wait in the line. When the bus comes they let each other on first, saying to each other "oh you were here before me blah blah blah", one of them even looked at me and continued to get on the bus without saying anything. If they asked me even, I still would have let them on before me (it's just manners), but still, I didn't know manners go out the window when you become 35 and older.  |

Today's Review scores or "How a 7 is considered a crap score and that anything below a 10 is bad and totally defeats the purpose of even having a 10 point scale". Worse (and from what I usually see, more common): when reviewers don't act like that and give a decent but not great mark to a game, but the fans act like the reviewer just killed their dog, pissed on their brother and raped their sister. For a good example, check out the reaction to any reviewer giving a Zelda game less than an 8 out of 10. In fact, people who get pissed by a reviewer liking/disliking something or not liking/disliking it enough. Why bother checking their reviews if you don't really wanna hear their opinion?! People complaining about Justin Beiber. You have a right, but you're REALLY overdoing it. That too, I'm usually even more annoyed by the people complaining about teen musicians then the musicians themselves, mostly because I would never have heard about them in the first place if grown men didn't constantly whine about kids stuff that they have no reason to care about in the first place. People who disregard you because you're a 'younger person'. Eg. waiting for a bus, I was first in line and waiting there the longest, these women come wait in the line. When the bus comes they let each other on first, saying to each other "oh you were here before me blah blah blah", one of them even looked at me and continued to get on the bus without saying anything. If they asked me even, I still would have let them on before me (it's just manners), but still, I didn't know manners go out the window when you become 35 and older. I hate that with a passion "Hey! I am more likely to die than you! That makes you owe me respect for some crazy reason why don't you give me your seat?! Yes there are plenty free seats but I need YOUR seat specifically and you're so rude for not giving it to me!" Seriously, I don't know these people, they could be child rapists for all I know, why should I owe them anything? Ironically, I find that very old people (80-90 something), who would actually have a reason to not want to cruise the bus/tram/whatever to find a seat, not only do not request you to give them your seat, but politely accept or decline when you offer it to them, and are generally more polite than the healthy 60-year old farts who believe they have a right to everything because they're old and that's an achievement somehow. As for things that annoy me: Emo bashers. Oh no! Somewhere there are MEN who are wearing make-up and complaining about stuff that actually happens in THEIR life on their Facebook! Boo-hoo! I MUST tell the World how much it affects me and ruins my life for some reason! And THEY are totally whiny, unlike me! Boo-hoo! I'm a tough guy, I only complain about important stuff like the clothes or tattoos some guy I crossed in the street sported or the music complete strangers listen to! Boo-hoo I'm so not whiny! Unlike everyone else! Boo-hoo! F those guys. And generally, people who bash other people for having an unusual lifestyle (gays, Goths, hippies, etc...). Heck, even admitting they're just posers and don't really care about what their lifestyle supposedly entails... so what? Why should you care? And most importantly, why should *I* care? Also, most of these people don't have a single clue what these people really are like. For example, I can't believe the number of people who believe Emo and Goth are essentially the same thing when they're pretty much polar opposites. Research? Who needs that to bash people they've never met? Oh, and the "jokes" made about them are ruining comedy. There's only so many times you can hear "Dur-hur! Some guy acts slightly depressed! He's so Emo! Dur-hur, that's so funny and original. No-one made that one before! Dur-hur, he's gonna cut himself, because he's emo! Even though Emos don't really do that! And look! Hippie chick! She obviously doesn't shave her legs and never bathes! Dur-hur I have no f'n clue what I'm talking about!" People who tell me that homeopathy is BS and act like they all have medicine degrees, yet they swallow any useless (and often ineffective) crap pharmaceutical companies tell them is good for them. I especially love how the fact that homeopathy, you know, works, is supposed to be placebo effect. You know, doctor speech for "a wizard did it". Now THAT'S scientific rigor! Unlike that stupid pseudo-science that has been developed by doctors for centuries. Okay, I'll stop for now before it becomes another one of my needlessly long posts. |

Hypocrites.
People who get off an elevator and just stand there blocking everyone's way. That or those who get off an elevator and don't put their hand out to keep the door open so it closes right behind their slow asses and you don't get on.
People who ask you for directions, then take the complete opposite way that you told them to take.
TV talk shows.

Agreed. My Great Grandpa was full blooded Cherokee, but I mean...that's not nearly enough for me to warrant ever bringing it up. But I've heard people claim they are, with way less.
YouTube Stuff:
- Putting a 10 Second *GENERIC NAME* Production Company Title Card that was made in Movie Maker, on a video.
- Worse when its a 10 second clip itself.
- Even worse when that person has NOTHING to do with that video. Sorry, but no, that video of Goldberg tripping on the way to the ring wasn't a "BLOODLIFE" Production. Nothing is. You don't have a production company.
- People who thank people when a video they uploaded, but didn't actually make, reaches a certain number of views. They'll upload like, a music video, and when it reaches a certain number you'll see "OMG GUYS THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 5 MILLION VIEWS". You had nothing to do with it! AT ALL. No one watching the video based on something you did.
- The recent "*number of dislikes* ARE JUSTIN BIEBER FANS" thing.

Your point about not making a video reminded me, it really annoys me when somebody puts up a fake "Productions Presents" screen. Like "*Insert Screen Name Here* Productions Presents*, and it's usually followed by a music video or lyric video. It's like.....really? |

Sure I'll whine some more. This gripe of mine is especially trivial.
How come in Doom when you are at the start and the monsters don't even realize where you are, switching to your fists and throwing a punch silently through the air awakens all the monsters?

The word "meme", and people who bitch about them.
Overly righteous people. Nobody's perfect, so get off you damn soap box and learn to love people for their imperfections.
Censorship. It insults my intelligence. I REFUSE to watch/listen to censored TV, music, movies, etc. Thankfully I have an add-on on my computer that uncensors internet censorship (of text, at least).
People who block the isles at grocery stores.
Blind allegiance to the home team. I don't care if I do live in 'Steelers Country'. I'll always be a Raiders fan.

When classmates that I've never talked to randomly ask me how I did on the most recent test as I walk by them in the hall or something. It's like...what if I did bad and don't wanna talk about it? Then they end up acting all funny when I tell them I made an A, and they tell me they failed miserably. Like it's somehow my fault that they failed, just because I understand the material. UGH. I hate that. My grades are MY business. Or the people who go "oh boo hoo I ONLY got a ninety five!" very loudly in a class room. Or the people who say it right to your face right after you tell them that you got a lower grade than they did, and they complete it by saying "I feel so stupid!"... Gee, thanks. |

God that used to irritate me. I work with someone who still has that "goody two-shoes" mentality and it's awful as hell. She's forever going on about how perfect she is, how everything she does turns to gold, etc. Yeah yeah. She's also one of these that is convinced every guy on Earth is after her. God I can't stand her.  |

People who complain about you not having locals discounts after ordering the cheapest steak on the menu and a water and leaving a ten percent tip. (When the place is full of locals seven days a week...with some of them eating there five days a week...why would the owner just give all that money away just so you...who maybe eat here twice a year, can save one buck on your meal?)

This is personal gripe but anyway.
Currently I am really annoyed at the way some people have overreacted since me and my missus have announced that we are no longer engaged.Both our families are fine with it and we still love each other but some of our friends have acted like we broke some sacred rule because we didn't go though with getting married. For past month and half I have had a ton of people asking me how strong is our relationship as their worried that we are going to break up at a moments notice. Never mind that both of us are happy for now being a de facto couple and when the time comes we might even get a civil union.
