I just think everyone should learn how to type correctly. None of this "u" "r" "b/c" stuff anymore. I learned within two weeks of my keyboarding class back in 9th grade. I got to 90 words per minute in two weeks. Now I can do 130 words per minute. It's not really all that hard to learn. Just need some determination.

I totally get you on that one. Stuff like that should stay in text messaging where it belongs. I cant type as fast as you but I try and take the time to check my spelling and grammer. Not everyone on the internet speaks english as a first language. A lot of people seem to forget that.

- When bad things happen to good people. And for no good reasons.
- When mean people have perfect lives and rub them in your face.
- When people push others down rather than being helpful.

Bad things happen to everyone, just because your a good person doesnt mean that bad things can't happen. Besides, its the bad things that make you stronger. You just have to try and look past the bad times and become a better person for it, and not let it effect you to much.

Back on topic.

People who try to shove their own opinions and beleifs down your throat. (I went to a youth club once wheir they tried to scare you into religion. Also they allowed me to be bullied because I was into the goth style at the time. So much for "love thy neighbour")

I'm not attacking religion here guys, it was just the example I used. But please let me know if I've offended anyone and I'll apologise for it.

I'd say a car accident is a bad thing to happen to someone, especially a fatal one. So, in that pretense, I highly doubt something like that could make one stronger. The same thing goes with an incurable disease or a homocide. Though, I may be getting too specific.


Anyway, at the moment, a couple things that irk me to no end are:
  • People who play Christmas music out of season -- What the hell... and why?
  • Bikers who rev their engines for 10 minutes straight before even going out on the road -- The damn bike runs fine! Get the f**k outta your driveway, you prick!

Kids who whine about how bad their lives are when their like 15
High schoolers in general
People who think their gangsters because they drop out of school
People who act like gangsters period
People who dislike movies because their to stupid to figure it out
Little kids who talk during movies*Spider-man 3 had commentary by the 5 year old behind me the whole time*
People who think really bad movies are good
People who follow trends
People who are loud for no given reason annoy the hell out of me
People who drink, smoke, or do drugs just to fit in
People who could get a job but sit around whining about how they don't have one
People who drop out of high school, never get a GED, and then blame drugs for why their life is messed up
People who have 2 year olds or older when their 20*Birth control exists*
People who work at fast food places and speak no English so they get your order wrong
People who speak very little English ask you 50 million questions in broken English making it hard to help them
Little kids with those roller shoes that have wheels on the bottom
People who drink and drive
People who buy 5 dollars of gas at a time so they have to go to the gas station every day or sometimes twice a day
People who get a great stereo system and ruin it listening to terrible rap music so loud it blows their speakers while their sub shakes up an earthquake while going down my street at 4 AM

I could seriously go on but I think I'll stop.

I'm just angry and worried because my best friend and her family are going through a hard time. They are EXTREMELY good people- but just when they thought they were managing, bad things happened again.

It's rough when that snowball starts rolling. The best we can do is try our best not to get hit by it, or at the very least try not getting hit too hard. Think of it like this: It's a good thing for them that a person so concerned like you is there for them. Maybe that will help balance the scales.

I have very similar feelings as some of these aforementioned dislikes, but
I have a good one and this is purely because the town where I grew up is boardered by the valley of the "Rednecks."
Big wheel truck driving, deer shooting, camoflauge wearing, tobacco spitting, gun rack owning, biggoty rednecks, need I say more or did I paint a colorful enough picture?

Unnecessarily rude people (If you want respect, give it.)

Small-minded or fanatically prejudice people (I sympathize with those fools.)

Lemmings ( )

Manipulators (I only care about them if we're talking family.)

Arrogance (This is mostly a harmless annoyance.)

I know what you mean. At work, we keep things, topics and stuff, pretty civil. We follow the two big rules. No discussion of politics and religion. I'm all for it, unless it involves people I know that I can trust to have an open mind.

But then, we get this new guy. He's nice and all, but it's like, he dictates to us on what we eat, what we wear, what we listen to or our hobbies because his religion doesnt allow it. We dont need to hear this during our breaks. Finally, the boss came in when the new guy and another woman were arguing about race (this was such a bad arguement and really made him into a racist pig, comments how women and non whites are not in their proper roles as see fit ) but the boss put a stop to it. Told the guy to shut his trap or leave the work place.

So, I just dont like being dictated to how wrong I am for doing the stuff that I do. There is nothing wrong, it's just a matter of opinion and preference.

But my biggest pet peeve. SLOW ASS DRIVERS It's enough to almost get me to go out and buy a 1985 F-350 with a grill on the front to bull doze the slow #$%^&* out of my way. I know there is a time when people have to go slow, but for crying out loud, that's what the slow lanes are for. Stay out of the fast ones!

I also dont like people, that what ever you say, they have to say something about it, even if they're flat out wrong! Sometimes, they even contradict themselves for the sake of fueling some stupid arguement!

Whoa. This guy looks like he's getting into illegal territory. He sounds like a total control freak nevertheless. I understand that not everybody can like everybody- but it is a good idea to try to tolerate others, if not downright be nice to them.

When people tell me to "discuss" at the end of their posts.

When people apologize for posting... you don't need to be sorry for posting!
- Sorry my post is so long. OR Sorry for asking this but...

I get really peeved when people don't accept or acknowledge my apologies after making a long post, or asking a question I deem inconvenient.

But what really drives me up the wall? When I tell people to converse about what I've just stated in my post, and then they won't do it. Or, they do it with a subtle resentment.

Sorry for asking this, but does that bother anyone else? Discuss.

This might be against everyone that smokes but I do not like cigarette smoke in my face.
