Drivers that stop in front of you at the red light and wouldn't move up a little bit more so you can turn right despite your effort to let them know ( right signal on,sneaking close to their bumper,sometimes blow horn....) Erogance or stupidity?????

stoodeo 05-03-2003 10:32 PM

when people fucking wear their jackets inside when they arent going anywhere and they arent cold!

also when people lean forward in their seat when watching tv like they are about to stand up

fuck them!!

Supradog 05-04-2003 05:16 AM

To have a cellphone, and leaving it on whilst not answering it.
I mean, whats the damn point of that? I finally get my hopes up that i can reach a person and he's not even answering it.
If you have a cellphone and it's on, have it with you for christ sake,and answer it.

I absolutely hate this also.

I can't stand when people scrape their teeth against their forks while eating. Makes me want to jump across the table and shove the fork down their throat.

People who NEVER stop bragging about themselves, their belongings, or their abilities, or people who think drinking/partying is a competitive sport (ie. "I can outdrink, outtoke, and outsnort any of you!!"; let me know how that works out for you in 20 years when your liver disintegrates, your heart collapses, and you get lung cancer).

Atropos4 05-04-2003 07:21 PM

Drivers that pull out in front of you and then turn almost immediately.

I really dislike drivers in the middle of Texas (Austin, San Antonio, Waco) they drive like morons. You get outside of these area and they drive fine.. but when you get to one of these cities there is this wall that just turns people stupid.

Oh, gawd, don't get me started on the stretch of 35 through Austin. Even the road itself is just stupidly designed. Put the thru-traffic bridges in the left two lanes, not the right two...

Gortexfogg 05-04-2003 08:14 PM

Furniture store commercials.
I can't stand those things!!! They're always going out of business!

hrdwareguy 05-05-2003 07:11 AM

people who don't return phone calls
people who don't call you when they say they will

grayman 07-10-2003 02:03 AM

People who reply to post but not with an answer to the question the post asks. For example: A post that says "Why do you look at porn?" and someone replying to it "I don't look at porn." If you don't look at porn, then don't go to the thread.

PatrickBateman 07-10-2003 04:46 AM

People that have the exact number of items as the limit in express check out lanes. Also, rich punk kids who don't have any real appreciation for anything.

Schwan 07-10-2003 05:01 AM

People who are late, like 30-60 minutes late. I find it very disrespectful.

Reese 07-10-2003 05:11 AM

Something that annoys me is my dads driving. EVERY onramp he can't get over to the left lane to let the traffic on because he insists on having someone in his blindspot 100% of the time. Then instead of passing the slow ass Semi he stays behind them the whole trip. There is no such thing as a Scenic view when all you can see in front of you is huge white doors with a little sign that says How's my driving. Oh, He usually does pass the semi after a while, usually about 200 ft before the offramp we're about to take.

Kush 07-10-2003 05:59 AM

People who think the world owes them something.

Also, people who blatantly lie to try and impress you. You know they're lying, but you don't wanna scream it into their face.

stinkynutz 07-10-2003 06:00 AM

you know what really chaps my ass?
a pop up that exclaims: "Stop Annoying Pop Ups Now..with our software"
a;oituga!@l45rq ughhh that shit just makes me furious.

also people who park in handicapped spaces with a handicapped sticker and have nothing wrong with them, who are fit enough to play football.

hate the tailgaters just as much.

Pyrate 07-10-2003 06:01 AM

Most of the Africans in my college. They are, on the most part, loud, rude, inconsiderate, stupid (or pretending to be...) and cumbersome. Almost every day one of them gets in my way somehow of another, whether it's knocking me across the road while galloping for a bus, or refusing to get off a computer I've booked, or asking me fucking stupid questions like:

"ekskooos mi, bot wear iz di Brixton Collij???"

"Erm, it's right next to you."

"Iz dat it?"

"Well, it DOES have Brixton College pasted across the front, doesn't it?!"

And they always want to go to some far off unheard of place at the tube of train station, and feel the need to take as long as they like trying to understand directions they'll never understand while there is an ever increasing queue of people waiting to buy tickets.

I'm not racist here, but I'll say this; Most Africans in the UK aren't really trying very hard to get a good reputation over here. And they sure ain't making life easier for the likes of me.

Sigh.

Other things that piss me off are 'NeighborHood Watch' pensioners;

Act One, Scene One.

Walking through my ends, on the way home.

Enter Pyrate, Carrying a bag of munch with mobile phone in hand.

Pensioner: (Peeping through curtains, dialing a number into phone) "Err, hello, I'd like to report a suspicious character. He's balck, wearing dark hooded clothes and carrying something in a carrier bag. It looks like a weapon of some kiiiiinddd. Ok, mmhmm, yes, ok, thank you, bye bye." (The returns to the cracked curtain to continue spying).

Next thing you know, a Bully Van comes outta nowhere, I am stopped by two officers who then proceed to search me. According to them there was a report of suspicious activity in the area, and, guess what, I was the suspect. And I know it was that bloody old fart who's too noset for her own bleedin' good. They all think they have the right to report every little going on to the police. They always feel the urge to intervene where their noses aren't welcome. Now, I'm not saying this is wrong, sometimes intervetion is justified when there is a genuine reason for it, but Goddamn it, if me and my bros wanna have a play rumble on the grass, then for God's sake fuck off and stop tryna tell us we're 'Gangstas' having an 'Gang fight'. Fucking stupid old farts. Too fucking nosy.

Shitty mobile phone ringtones, sandals+dry, grey Cocoa Butter deprived feet, SCHOOL GIRLS, SCHOOL CHILDREN. I could go on to rant about those last two, but I won't. I might clog the server.

:)

Mesmerize 07-10-2003 06:26 AM

People who pass me, then drive slower than I was going. . .
People who don't know which cell phone ring is theirs. It's funny that even though cell phones have been around for a good amount of time now, and nearly everyone has one, no one knows if it's their phone ringing or not. It's a stupid joke that's still too true.
Fuckers who don't know the difference between THEN and THAN, EFFECT/AFFECT, ACCEPT/ECCEPT, and a few others.

troit 07-10-2003 06:34 AM

Simple -- Bad driving...

asquint 07-11-2003 07:57 PM

people who don't pay attention to the directions they are given

drivers who insist on waiting until you are 100 feet away doing 70 mph before they pull out in front of you (one of these days me and my BRAT (Big Red Ass Truck) are gonna smoosh some crappy little economy car and I'm gonna get sued by the survivors or their families)

people who whine constantly, especially those in leadership positions

people in leadership positions who couldn't lead a lost hungry cub scout to a picnic bhasket much less lead soldiers

anyone that is unable to make a decision, right or wrong, decide and act

the list goes on and on, i guess i'm just generally dissatisfied with the human race

spectre 07-11-2003 08:09 PM

Another one to add to my list: People who won't SHUT THE FUCK UP during a movie.

tecnocrat 07-11-2003 09:34 PM

I worked tech support. The whole human race annoys me.

Most of all, two types.

1. People who are happy, nay, PROUD that they know nothing about computers they spent THOUSANDS of dollars on, and don't really care. They look at a computer like a monkey looks at a walnut.

2. People who don't like "this computer shit. It's so stupid and fucking useless. No one needs these damn things, and we were all better off before they came along" Thank you for belittleing the one joy I have in my life. I don't knock you nailing your sister, you bumpkin.

mathias3 07-11-2003 10:54 PM

I'm on board with "sierra2774" -- my huge pet peeve is people who can't exhibit the decency to respect other people in this world. Yeah, you have your rights, but damnit they have theirs too, and they don't have to take your shit. Be repsectful of others and it will come back to you.

07-16-2003 11:48 AM

What pisses you off? Why?
 
I would really like to know what ticks people off. It's just an interesting questiong that i never really get answered.

What ticks me off is stupid people. They act like a complete jerk or arse or just complain retards.. i know i'm not explaing it too well, but just thinking about it ticks me off.

I hate the asians because most of them show the "conniving little whores" trait. By that, I mean where they'll deliberatly not tell you something that could help you out, because they want you to fail so that they will look good. Also, they keep information/ideas to themselves and try to be a team player. There's also the "azn pride" thing. I mean, what the heck, so it's cool to be asian now? you have to flash signs when you come across other asians? You're in freaking america. Yes, there are other races in this particulcar country, and yours isn't all that special. STFU. So you like being associated with countries that have child labor(phillipines, china), sweat shops(phillipines, china), and human right is basically nonexistant(china, phillipines)? Do you like that the fact that the rulers have been very lucrative and slippery and caused lots of hurt? (china, japan) Yes, other countries have had some backgrounds that suck. And they do have pride. Americans have american pride. But that's okay to some extent because they LIVE IN AMERICA.

There are also the "ricers". The people with the tweaked up honda civics with a massive spoiler and a muffler that creates more sound than it actually blocks. They generally talk about how "sweet" their ride is, and really like crappy movies such as the fast and furious/ too fast too furious (although the first one was a lot better than the second one, even thought that's not saying much). Why pay the extra money for all that stuff? why not buy a good all around car like the toyota camry. i've used that as a "rally" car before. Why? because i didn't want to use the van, and it was a good fun, to pass the time. I came really close to beating some bmws.

There is also the matter of hubris. This falls into the category of being arrogant, which i can loop back to the "AZN" pride. Pride is okay, but there's a threshold. Once it's reached, i get really pissy. I can't think of anything else at the moment, since i'm at work. But i'd like to hear your thoughts.

platypus 07-16-2003 12:02 PM

Hmmm, must be a great burden to hate a group of people that comprise about a third of the world's population. And to have to generate that amount of hate based upon your experiences with only a few. Chances are you will be dealing with them on a daily basis for the rest of your life. Hope you can come to some peaceful terms with your feelings.

I guess bigotry and racism pisses me off the most.

07-16-2003 12:13 PM

yes, i deal with some almost all the time. but i'm just generalizing. there are exceptions of course... i don't hate all asians :-D

platypus 07-16-2003 12:17 PM

Generalization can get confused with blatant racism.

How about something most can agree with - stupid people suck. Doesn't matter about race, religion, etc.

Basically there are only two kinds of people - jerks and non-jerks. Representatives of both kinds from all races abound.

yoshi 07-16-2003 01:03 PM

Being lied to pisses me off. One b/c I fell for it, two it totally ruins trust.

Destrox 07-16-2003 01:11 PM

The ignorance of people pisses me off the most.

The fact that somone can raise thier kid the way they are, and not have any laws against it.

zfleebin 07-16-2003 01:15 PM

Dont get me wrong but you should go read the tfp charter a couple times. Racism and generalization are the tools of of the ignorant. Though you might know a couple asians that act the way you speak you are now using those pitiful examples to represent a beautiful race of people.

Halx 07-16-2003 01:16 PM

I have discovered a few things piss me off recently.

Computers that dont work piss me off.
People who steal my stuff piss me off, stop being a leech on society, you assholes.
People who tell me I have so much to offer, but dont even consider taking me up on it piss me off, you're just blowing air up my ass.
People who flake out on me piss me off, am I the only one who thinks that keeping promises (even those little ones that you say without thinking) is the most important thing you can do for someone?
People who dont get right to the point piss me off, I don't like to be buttered up.

I used to think it was a chore to get me pissed off, but recently that's changed a little.

stinkynutz 07-16-2003 01:42 PM

chain letters REALLY piss me off.

people who steal piss me off. i had my car broken into a few months ago - had a lot of stuff stolen. sure i was pissed that a lot of expensive stereo equipment was stolen, but what really pissed me off was the fact that I really couldn't do shit about it. i wanted to lay my tire iron to that fucker's face, but i couldn't cuz i didn't know who it was.

ignorant people piss me off

oh and my friend's dog pisses me off

i can go on and on and on

rat 07-16-2003 01:58 PM

Most of the things that piss me off boil down to two things...respect and integrity--especially at work, and this has come up recently. Working in a place with strict codes of behavior, "policy" runs most of the things we are and are not allowed to do as waiters in my restaurant. There very clear rules concerning damn near every aspect of our restaurant, all the way down to having to wear a 100% cotton, pinpoint oxford, white button down dress shirt. Anything else will get you written up and sent home for being out of uniform. Now, in a place that lays such great emphasis on "policy" and "rules," if you don't have the integrity to enforce those rules equally and fairly, across the board, you have no business being in a management position. If you don't have the integrity to not lie to your employees concerning "policy," you don't belong in a management position. If you're going to tell someone that something is "policy" then three weeks later blatantly contradict yourself as to what the "policy" is--to that person's detriment both times--you have no business having a say in anything in this life as you don't have the intelligence and integrity to be in a position where you affect others' lives. People who feel they have to lie in order to cover up their inadequacies, their playing of 'favorites' and their lack of responsibility and basic respect are what piss me off. Someone that will tell me a bald-faced lie to get me to do something, then show that they're lying a short time later apparently doesn't respect me as a person or respect my intelligence, nor do they have the integrity to tell the truth in the first place. Yea, this turned into a rant, and I said alot of it to one of the managers at work, which is why I'm currently suspended and pending termination--because I have the integrity to stick by my word and not be lied to and misused in a theoretically "professional" environment. Yet this time, like every time, if I want to keep my job, I swallow my pride, claim that I'm the one who is wrong and hopefully finish out the last four weeks of my employment there.

Cynthetiq 07-16-2003 01:59 PM

hmmm... was interesting to read that Azn pride thing... I have no Azn pride... I think my fellow culturemen (not countrymen because I'm born and raised american) not only act stupid but look stupid.

i usually don't think of myself as a person not a race or a religion.

pisses me off???

paying for other people to sit and be lazy dirtbags.
paying fees and surcharges for no damned apparent reason.

other than that... not much.. i try to roll with the punches and just exist.

viveleroi0 07-16-2003 03:13 PM

I work in a center to assist bankers with home equity application status. They get sales credit for each application they do, so they become vultures.

Sometimes I tell them their customer's apps were declined, and they don't believe me. That makes me mad sure, but what REALLY gets to me is when I transfer them to the actual loan officer, they ask him/her the same question I just answered, and say "the guy on the helpline did not know what he was talking about." Then the LO tells them the same damn thing.

AAHHH!

Plus people who launch into boring stories that have no relevance to what we're talking about.

viveleroi0 07-16-2003 03:14 PM

Oh- and sitting on the behind a sweaty, haven't-showered-today guy. God that smell STINKS.

also, not the go against the TFP charter, but I want to add my support for the thread starter. The majority of bankers on the west coast are of oriental descent, and boy are they sneaky. They try to get me do sneak things through, convince me their customers are better than their credit says, and they're just bitchy.

But if you're halx, or an admin you didn't see that edit.

Little pisses me off, but I don't like:

-Commercials

-People who try to sell me stuff I don't want
-People who sees in "black and white" (don't know if you americans use that expressions, if you don't I'll be glad to explain)

Nefir 07-16-2003 03:47 PM

I'm a pretty easygoing guy, and I've never allowed anything to get me "angry", no matter how irritating or unjust it may seem. However, a few things sure come close.

- People who ride on the effort of others, without contributing anything useful of their own, especially in groupwork
- People who spread false rumors in order to get the upper hand
- People who hide behind vague concepts like "religion" and "minority", in order to snipe at those who disagree with them
- People who choose an option which benefits themselves while hurting others, even though obvious compromises exist.
- People who do something offensive "just because they can"

I guess everything that pisses me off really can be crystallized into self-centeredness.

Anymore it seems like the world (and America in particular) is increasingly filled with a bunch of whiny, self-centered morons who feel entitled to behave how they want, say whatever they want, and do whatever they want with no fear of consequences. This translates to your road-ragers, your PC-police, fat people who want to sue McDonalds for "making" them fat, and so on.

These are the same ones who always seem to assert that it is their "right" to have a nice house and a fast car and a big-screen TV, and free health care, and someone else should make that all happen for them. You know the ones. The ones that never do anything for themselves and then cry "it's not fair" when those who do are rewarded for their efforts. They want everything given to them, but they want to give nothing.

I guess what pisses me off the most is that people just seem to have no regard for each other anymore. It's all about looking out for old #1, and anyone that gets in the way of "me getting what I want" is met with what basically amounts to the adult form of a temper tantrum.

docbungle 07-17-2003 11:39 AM

-When people cheat on their boyfriend or girlfriend. Have some integrity.

-When people gossip / spread rumors to cause others harm.

-When people lie after being confronted about some bs they pulled.

-When people who don't like themselves lash out at everyone else.

-People hating people.

-When people who do the things described above complain about the exact same things. Hipocracy.

Phony Assed Religious Fanatics -

Back to conceit and arrogance - that covers all of the above.

I posted a quote by Goethe earlier which addresses my problems with ignorance, which ties in with a deeper-seated intolerance. I really get upset with people who talk down to me. I've been thinking about this topic a lot for the past few days and find myself coming back to this same mind-thread. Very few people know who I am, where I come from, and what my life experiences are. I share these things with those who are, in my opinion and experience, worthy of my respect. I guess what it boils down to is, if you haven't walked my walk, take a chill pill and relax; life is too short to get excited about things you know nothing about...

People who say "expecially" instead of "especially."

Memnoch 07-23-2003 10:45 PM

People who say negative things about me when I'm not around when they know in their hearts that they would be completely at a loss for words if I decided to come up to them and say "So I heard you said such and such about me"

One of my pet peeves is seeing quality music (I am talking real music like Benny Goodman, Solomon Burke, Albert King, etc) encoded with a shitty codec like MP3 at a low bitrate.

more fire 07-28-2003 07:47 PM

price-fixing
pop-ups
people who judge other people by the music they listen to
waiting in line
going out with no money

sub zero 07-28-2003 10:51 PM

Too much pride and confidence. I HATE that more than probably anything else.

I also don't like grouchy women.

..wait..

What really annoys me?
People who spam all the boards on TFP to up their post counts (especially because I have to go in and clean up their messes afterwards).

raeanna74 07-29-2003 06:16 AM

LAZY PEOPLE. The ones that when you greet them and say "What have you been doing? They say "As little as possible." Don't they realize that life can be so much more fun if they willing to put some effort in?

People who dawdle at left turn lights.
The word Bitch.
People saying I'm lazy when I sleep in on my ONE DAY OFF a week (and only 'till ten, mind you).
Being late, or others being late.
Tailgaters.
Screaming children.
Children left to roam around in a public place.
Stupid, obvious questions.

punkgrl1984 07-30-2003 09:02 PM

people who won't try new things

Stone washed jeans

people talking on thier cell phones while they drive

people who read yearbooks while they walk

brown shoes with a black outfit and vise versa

sta500 07-30-2003 11:23 PM

Humanity in general pisses me off. I mean, jesus. We're always hating on each other and constantly overpopulating the planet that supports us and is probably the only one that can for 1,000,000 light years. I mean, god damn, how hard is it to put on a condom? Or take a damn pill?

Oh, and cell phones get me REALLY pissed off. I don't quite know why yet, but I blatently REFUSE to call people on their cell phones. I'll be out riding my bike, be in the middle of the boonies, get a flat, and walk home rather than call someone.

irseg 07-31-2003 12:23 AM

-Communists/Socialists/Democrats/Liberals/Hippies

-Political correctness

-Ricers

-Non-motivated people

-Doing ISP tech support (I'd sooner pump gas or bus tables than ever go back to answering phone calls and explaining to fucking morons how to click on the Start button)

-People who act inconsistently (i.e. they're your best friend one day, then blow you off the next, etc)

-Syncophants

There's plenty more where that came from, that's just a few off the top of my head.

I almost go insane when I'm at the grocery store and someone is paying whith a check. These morons always wait until they have their total to even start writing the damn thing out. They coulda had almost everything done while they waited in line for 5 minutes. Old people that pay for shit at the grocery store with a mountain of dimes and nickels. Just go to the bank and trade that shit in on some paper for christ's sake! :mad: :mad:

that hurts me there was this one chick who was way hot. Drank to much kinda got fat so she turned to coke. She got thin alright, but it was coked out thin and really botherd me.

Drugs fuck with peoples lifes. I just can't seem to turn the other cheek to them either really kinda lame. :(

Sparkmaster 07-31-2003 02:45 AM

The most annoying people are the ones who are screwing up their lives (and usually a child's), but don't see what they are doing!

Also, people who drive slow in the fast lane on the freeway...

cetacean 07-31-2003 07:05 PM

People who try to get in an elevator or subway car before letting the poeple inside leave... No manners.

Pet Peeves
 
I'm sure this topic has come up routinely throughout TFP's existance, but I just have to express my own.

I hate those decals, usually on some hick's truck, that has Calvin pissing on a Ford logo. Or a chevy logo. Or chrystler. I'm almost positive Calvin has pissed on every established logo in existance. It really pisses me off, Calvin and Hobbes is a comic classic, and the throngs of white trash that plaster their rusted out toyotas with these decals obivously have no experience with the actual comic. I doubt they even recognize the character as Calvin. I'm no expert on trailer park folk art, so maybe I'm missing something, but I can't see what the appeal is. Who started this "fad"? Is there some factory churning out imagines of Calvin pissing on everything under the sun? Can't Bill Watterson ban this practice?

I'm not the biggest fan of C&H, and I don't feel like somebody has desecrated something close to me, but even I have a little tact.

The Plumper threads on the (former) Titty Board.

MikeyChalupa 08-06-2003 03:42 AM

"ATM Machine" and "PIN Number".

So, you're saying, Automatic Teller Machine Machine and Personal Identification Number Number?

When people don't do search for a thread that they already think is there:
Pet Peeves and/or General DIE BITCH!
What really annoys you?

KeyserSoze 08-06-2003 05:06 AM

Drivers that don't use their turn signal pisses me the FUCK OFF!! I swear that they must have a sign before you drive through Beverly Hills thats says...NO TURN SIGNALS ALLOWED!

emmdubbs 08-06-2003 05:53 AM

i dunno if anyone has said it yet...but um..how about wedgies..after you've been workin all day and you're hot and sweaty, and your boxers/panties/whatever you got on (excluding thongs) starts to creap up and keep on creapin..and there is nothin you can do b/c you're in the middle of work...

JadziaDax 08-06-2003 07:06 AM

oh my... wedgies are even worse when you're in the middle of a workout at the gym... and you want to pull it out sooooooooo badly.. but everyone is looking at you... so you leave it... and it's so annoying...

GlockShot 08-06-2003 09:58 AM

People not showing up for work with no call or notification. You plan a whole day, then it gets all screwed up, and you have to jump through hoops to make it work out.

Looften 08-06-2003 12:03 PM

Whoops, my other pet peeve is when I somehow miss the correct thread and create another on the same topic. My bad. :eek:

The other boards I frequent, easyboards and ign's vnboards both have horrible search features, guess I'm not used to having one that actually works. :D

Nizzle 08-06-2003 12:50 PM

People that don't use vibrate for their cellphones. Unless you are asleep and work in a capacity that requires you be available at this time (such as on-call), TURN YOUR CELLPHONE ON VIBRATE, NO ONE ELSE WANTS TO HEAR IT. Seriously. Especially if it's some stupid midi rendering of Mozart's 5th, or something similar.

Bla99 08-06-2003 03:38 PM

People who don't indicate.
People who screw up/don't bother to do something, then get angry at you for calling them on it.
TAB callers.
People who judge your opinion by your post count.
Arrogant cocky people, who make themselves appear better at your expense.
People who are unreliable, turn up when you say you will for the love of god.

So to sum it up, the majority of the human race pisses me off.

JadziaDax 08-08-2003 10:42 AM

People who don't give proper credit where credit is due.

remiel 08-08-2003 10:51 AM

wilfull stupidity. People who are proud of how little they know.
