    Have you ever been driving down the interstate and been passed at an outrageous speed by some idiot, only for them to get in front of you and drive way under the limit? >_< Stuff like that really grinds my gears. So that’s what this thread is about: those little pet peeve’s in life that really set you off. The idea here is to post the little things that annoy you, get you steamed, or even infuriate you, thus venting off some of that steam and maybe even having a good laugh about it. Remember though, we’re not talking about any greater evils like poverty, or *cough* …politics. This is just about little things or even the people that cause them. Keep in mind that people may disagree with you, and don’t pick someone out to argue/cause trouble. In other words, just continue to be respectful to others and their feelings. ^_^

      I don’t know about everybody else but one of my biggest pet peeves is when I’m eating something and they’re like “lemme try a bite”. Whenever I get the food back I end up with less than have of what I gave them in the first place >_

      Omg that’s so gross, always makes me cover my face xDDD!

      Another one I have is when I’m in the public restroom washing my hands, a guy will go in, use the urinal, and walk right out without washing up his hands O_o. I’m just like “dude you just touched your Jimmy!”

<p>Pet peeve of mine (ladies seem to be primary offenders, at least from my experience).  When we’re out getting food somewhere, I ASK if you want anything, you say you don’t, then 2 min later when I’m eating you’re like “can I try that?” or even worse, just start picking off mah’ plate!  GET YOUR OWN FOOD DAMMIT!!!</p>

      I heard that! Your food disappears before you have a chance to even eat it xP!

      Another one I have is when I’m at the movie theater and some jerk is sitting there talking through scenes loudly. I paid way more than I wanted to so that I could go (prices are at 15 bucks per adult at my local theater), have the common courtesy to keep quiet for an hour and a half or two :? ?

      GAH yea I get this quite a bit too, it goes a little something like

      “Hey everybody want Pizza?”

      “Scratching sounds followed by a few “Nah”s”

      Order’s Pizza, comes back, put it down

      “Hey man can I have some Pizza?”

      What grinds my gears is when I’m in a public place, right near an ashtray, and I’m smoking a cigarette, people still have the nerve to give me dirty looks. Also, these Anti-Smoking laws (such as not being allowed to smoke in restaurants and bars anymore) are driving me insane. I respect the fact that smoking IS bad for you and nonsmokers hate the smell of cigarettes, but if I’m in a designated smoking section and nonsmokers are coming up to me with disrespectful behavior, they deserve to get smoke blown right in their faces.

      I hear ya there Guts…in my homestate, they passed a no smoking in ANY public place law…right as I turned 18! (Yeah, I used to smoke some, thought I’d try it, it’s not really for me…I may indulge in a cigar on a special occassion if the situation calls for it). & even though I’m not a smoker, I think it’s b.s. that a privately owned establishment, i.e. a bar or restraraunt, can’t make its own decisions with regards to smoking. If a restaraunt/bar allows smoking, & you can’t stand second hand smoke, don’t go there–the owners may have to suffer the loss of potential business, but it should be their decision. I think we’re getting close to smoking becoming a relic of the past…like betamax, or when radios were also furniture… at least the way things are going with it being taxed to death & so many restrictions on it (advertising, etc.)

      Of course for many of us (including me) that wouldn’t be a bad thing really, but I still think if a privately owned mom & pop place wants to have a smoking section, fine by me.

      What gets me mad is when you try and order something in a drive thru and your in a hurry but the loser infront of you orders a ton of food or it has to be all fancy and stuff and you have to wait 5 or more minutes just to get one thing. Blargh its so annoying! lol

      Even through I don’t drive, my pet peeves focus on drivers who don’t used their turn signals before they turn, and don’t stop fully at a stop sign. Many people are in a hurry these days. I wonder if they left their brains at home.
      Speaking of traffic-related pet peeve’s, I hate when your at an intersection and someone opens their door to spit. Especially when it’s the car right in front!

      Pet peeves? People who leave their shopping carts in the middle of the parking lot. You have the energy to push it all around the store, but suddenly your lazy ass is incapable of walking it 15 feet to the chorale.

      Oh, and the piece of popcorn currently stuck in my teeth.

      Oh God yes, that pisses me off to no end. :fight:

      No really people, they could cause damage to cars if they suddenly start moving. Assholes… Western society is declining and this is one of the reasons.

      I hate when I find a rockstar parking space only to find someone has left a shopping cart in the middle of it. I feel like they’re somewhere out there…hiding and laughing at my crushed excitement.

      What’s even worse is when you think a space is free, only to find out a motorcycle is parked right in the middle. At least you can move a cart.

      What about automatic toilets? Seriously, I understand the intentions of why they are installed, but why don’t they ever work when you want them to? You end up manually flushing the previous occupant’s shit or whatever, but just before you mount the throne, and after the effort of making a bird’s nest, IT FLUSHES ALL YOUR WORK DOWN!
      That’s a strangely deep and articulate account of a hatred for automatic toilets :-___-:

      Doesn’t mean they don’t suck though.

      Well, I mean there could be. I mean blood in the stool is a sign of a problem in your intestines, so when you can’t see it, I mean what can you go off of? The water is gone before you can even investigate it.

      Then what? Horror, that’s what. :cat:

      I wasn’t referring to your own waste, that’s fucking sick. I was referring to all the toilet paper or those sheets used to cover the seat, which get flushed down before I’m able to assume the throne.

      Do you know how hard it was to write that without being too scatological? :Seriousface:

      (sorry, don’t mean to be biased ladyfolk, it’s just how it keeps happening around me) Chicks on their cellphones! Pay attention to where the f*** you’re walking! Why don’t they multitask? Look at phone, then look ahead, then back at phone? No, it’s two hands typing on phone keyboard, eyeballs glued to the screen! Whether it’s walking into me, or walking in front of my car outside of crosswalks or even when the light’s clearly green, it’s beginning to wear on my nerves

      We can both be short togetherrrr… I’m 5ft 1. It doesn’t really bother me that I’m short and am always reminded of it, but I also look very young for my age because I was cursed with a youthful face, and it pisses me off that, usually old ladies, will, after I tell them that I’m 24, respond “Oh I thought you were 14-16!”.

      MITTENS, I KNOW HOW THAT IS. My entire family is like, one big youthful band of people who don’t get along.

      I’m 17, soon to be 18 in February, and most people think I’m A.) still a freshman, while I am a senior right now, or B.) 12 years old, and not old enough to ride that ride.

      Oh, you mean like how people think Washuu is about twelve years old? ;D

      If I looked as young as she does (relative to our respective ages, 18 and ~20,000), I’d look… [whips out his TI-85] 3.8 days old. Or I’d be 30,000.

      So… would you rather look .006 times your age, or be 1666 2/3 times as old as you look?

      While I’m here, I guess I’ll add I share opinions with regards to remarks about, how to put this… over-zealous sub fans. I’m not dissing on subs, or people that prefer a certain series in subs, or even subs in general…but I think thanks to youtube/the internet, we all know some people that just insist on mindlessly bashing any dubs of any anime, & trolling said videos/fans any chance they get. Most are just trying to cause an uproar/negative reaction in others anyway (trolls) 🙄 Sure there are bad dubs out there, but denying there are any good dubs in existence is just purposefully belligerent and/or ignorant.

      the fine print!

      Yeah,the reason why they call it The Fine Print is because it’s so hard to read,but if you don’t want to be scammed you have to read the fine print as it gives all the details that they never tell you in the commercials.

      Revisioning tv series that don’t need to be either remade or revisioned.No,I’m not talking about

      J.J.Abrams’ Star Trek(at least he had respect for the original),this has to do with the fact that NBC

      decided suddenly that ‘Gee,wouldn’t it be nice to remake The Munsters into a Gothic edgy dramedy?’ isawitplz

      I gotta disagree about JJ Abrams. He even referred to himself as a non-Treker. I think he had no respect for the originals whatsoever, and hijacked a classic franchise for his own career. Rant complete.

      ‘wannabe minorities’ lol never heard that one, but i think i might know what you mean. You mean when white people say they’re part native-American trying to cash-in on some government money? Yeah, get a decent amount of that where I’m from. Sometimes it’s legit, but still… so, you’re 1/32 Cherokee, you’re white & you were born and raised in middle-class American suburbia? I’m all for being proud of your heritage, but using it in such cases to garner sympathy and/or money? come on, guy… 🙄

      I’ve seen a lot more crazy, and frankly twisted ways of getting money from the government then suggesting your part Native American. Indeed, we’re all God’s children, except this guy… :dexter:

      I was referring of course to Mrs. Warren up in Mass.

      Yeah,we’re all God’s children but some people act like they’re more than others.This might be a good segue to say that Religious Bigotry is probably the worse form of Bigotry IMO.

      For Washuu’s pet peeve of the week #28: Getting fired from one’s job for looking “unmotivated”, when really it was just a happy attitude and small, consistent smile. Yay.
      ML’s Pet Peeve of the Week:The continual politicialization of candidates’ genealogies.Or does it really matter or relevant that B.O.’s 11xs great grandfather on his mother’s side might have been the documented first

      African slave in America any more than does it matter really WHEN Romney’s ancestors came to America?

      I hate it when genealogy gets mixed into politics by both sides.

      Especially when it’s just a pale distraction. I mean, the fact that the news media will talk about that, but they won’t talk about the obvious attempts at internet censorship by our own government is flatly embarrassing, if not some sort of indictment on the world we live in.

      Wasn’t he somehow related to Bush and Jefferson Davis?

      I think it was Cheney and Palin actually.Also while some of Romney’s ancestors only arrived in the 1850s or so,others were in fact here in colonial times.

      Also interesting is that I believe there is also a link to Benedict Arnold,it comes through the Rev.Lathrop,

      who seems to be a common ancestor to a lot of prominent New England descendants.Which makes me

      happy that so far all my known ancestors are either Southern or Middle Atlantic(New Jersey and

      Some of mine did too (It’s only natural, being that most of my American ancestry is Southern), but some of them also fought against it. A few of my Czech ancestors were also interned at Aushwitz, but I don’t assume that every German/ German-American owes me something just because they may or may not have Nazi ancestry.
      The latest my own German ancestors came to America was 1850.
      My father’s mother fled communism and lost everything, and I’m not asking for reparations because it would be counterintuitive on my part to do so.
      But where would the cycle end?Everyone could claim reparations from everyone else if you think about it.
      This probably sounds really mean, and very vague, but people who ask blatantly stupid questions, be it in person or online, you know like one of those really obvious questions that makes you go..Really? You really just asked that?

      When people state the f***ing obvious to me when asking me to do something.
      My current rant is about how the people complaining about the Seahawks win over the Packers yesterday.

      The rule that the official cited to Pete Carroll definitely states that in case of a tie,wherein the DEFENSIVE

      and OFFENSIVE player make a simultaneous catch,the tie goes to the OFFENSIVE PLAYER.Ergo,because

      it goes to the offensive player it was a Seahawks TD.

      That and the fact that the officials took enough time to make certain of the call…that it was a TD

      and not a interception…well stop gripping Packer fans.

      I mean if the Pack had won we wouldn’t be hearing all of this nonsense.Even though the play would still be

      considered controversial.

      call to Phoenix using our phone number and we don’t know anyone from Phoenix so my mom was trying to get them to subtract the charge from the bill and explain where it came from.

      I am officially tired of polls now.Mainly because I already voted and don’t care what people in Ohio or

      Wisconsin think.I’m also tired of this stupid Red State/Blue State thing.It was all started by CBS back in

      Actually, states were unofficially using red and blue before then to distinguish Democrats from Republicans on a map. Prior to 2000, red was usually the democratic color and blue the republican color, though they would swap.

      Anyway, I agree. I’m sick of hearing about the election in general. My parents eat, sleep, and breathe politics every four years and it’s frustrating trying to carry a conversation when I’m fed up with the whole process and don’t care to discuss it any more than I really need to beyond doing my research and voting.

      Absolutely nothing personal against you ML, but this is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. In my mind, you not only wasted your vote, but by doing so you in effect SUPPORTED the very candidate you least supported. This isn’t rocket science, and it certainly applies equally to both sides because if people hadn’t voted for Ross Perot in 92 Bill Clinton would have lost, and if people hadn’t voted for Ralph Nader in 2000 George Bush would have lost. The American system does NOT, EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES allow for three parties to exist without one of them automatically winning by default. So by voting for Goode rather than Romney, you might as well have voted for Obama because the end result is the same.

      Yep Ross Perot screwed us twenty years ago, but it wasn’t really Nader in 2000. It was more because of Pat Buchanan, who people accidentally voted for instead of Gore. Of course, as these people were Democrats, they were stupid enough not to understand the ballot their party designed in the first place.

      One of my biggest pet peeves is when some people who live outside the South assume that Texas (among other Southern states) is inhabited by people technologically trapped in the mid-nineteenth century.

      🙄

      I’ve not heard that one before.

      zombie thread bump:

      The whole deal with me misreading the Toonami announcement with IGXP reminds me of how I hate it when

      people aren’t precise about what they say and mean when they write or speak.You don’t have to say or write a lot to get what you mean across,just concentrate on what in fact you actually MEAN.This could also be that the people who run our entertainment industry today skipped basic English 101 like the guys at Toonami obviously did.

      In light of the events in Boston, this is another one that came to me. I really can’t stand it when something bad happens and rather than coming together, people immediately start pointing fingers, placing blame on some random unknown party, and starting fights over the issue without knowing a damn thing.

      i know what you mean. i live about a hour away from boston so it can be scary. but sometimes people bring up good points. if we all take the time to see things we can stand beter as a people caring for people, not as animals that want to blame the closest thing

      Minor irritation that Funi uses the official Tenchi facebook to promo/sell the tenchi discs, mostly WoG, and when they post the 2 min Tenchi Toonami promo… the post the Slim made one with poor audio, not even mine or the one Slim redid himself recently. Arrrgh….

      Biggest pet peeve for me.

      Let’s say someone comes in, comes to the bar I’m working at, and decides to order a drink they never had before. I give them a warning…a disclaimer…that it may be a bit stronger or weaker than if they get something normal. I mix it, serve it. They start complaining and expect me to make another of what they wanted originally x.x As a bartender, I don’t have time to settle to just one persons need, and in the end they barely tip you any money. They basically don’t pay tip because of there own mistake.

      :fight:

      Other than that, if I’m watching any show or movie that I am trying to pay attention to, and there are people talking…It drives me crazy 😡

      Haha, done ranting x.x

      Yeah, I feel for bar tenders, man. They have to cater a room full of drunk people in as timely a manner as they can. Oftentimes, the patrons are either incapable of taking into account that they are not the only customers, or they are and simply don’t care. I’ll admit that while I’ve never been rude to a bartender I am guilty in that respect of not always being empathetic towards the bartenders situation, myself.

      On that note, it really bugs me when I’m watching a series/movie with someone, and instead of watching it with me as I am taking the time to either introduce them to something I thought would interest them, or am entertaining a recommendation from them/their desire to watch it with me, they’re just flipping through their smart phone the whole damn time. Off and on, off and on, the looking up then looking back down, grrr!

      What’s more annoying is if they won’t put their damn thing on vibrate/silent, and they somehow can’t figure out that it might be distracting for other people, or themselves (seriously, during my recent Tenchi Saturday Night viewings with friends, my one friend was an offender in this regard for three weeks in a row. I thought he would figure it out, but finally I had to be “rude” and say “could you possibly please put that on vibrate?”).

      Darn smart phones in general. Everyone’s always on them, surfing the web, checking their status updates, while they’re out to dinner with you, while watching a movie, while walking around downtown, ALL THE TIME! To me it conveys disinterest in whom you’re spending time with (in my case, me) and intentionally or not, is rather rude.

      The product of our age. We’re everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

      Who, I believe we are on the same wavelength about people not setting their phones at least to vibrate >.<. I tend to have nights where my buddies come over, we watch Tenchi, or other shows like Darker than Black(a show you have to pay a lot of attention to, otherwise you will be lost). They are busy on their smartphones through half of it, and it goes off every half-minute. I honestly have a smartphone, I admit that, but I do have courtesy not to use it during a conversation, or during movies/shows, or whenever the occasion is needed to give undivided attention. A productive product to negate productivity. It’s a man-made paradox 😆

      I’m sick for the third time for this time of the year when it usually only happens once and I am just SO frustrated. I hate being sick so much. This just hasn’t been my weekend. I guess I shouldn’t have procrastinated on that math homework either, being sick just makes things 100x more difficult. Cold medicines don’t work for me… etc…

      If you ask me, start job-searching. NOW.

      Don’t quit your job, but make it an unwavering and daily routine to check for new job opportunities. Find a place you’d actually LIKE to work at, even if it’s less pay, as long as it will make ends meet.

      Why go through a painful experience -daily- any longer than you have to? Search!

      Just my $.02

      I don’t know why this bothers me so much, but people who leave time on the microwave. Meaning that whoever used the microwave before you overestimated the amount of time it would take to warm up their food and didn’t hit the clear button. I shouldn’t have to hit the clear button for you or have to worry about overcooking my food because there was an extra 2 minutes on the timer. UGH! rageblow1

      Ungrateful bastards.

      And today, in the life of Elliot, the clock at work got to 7:30 pm – dinnertime.

      I work at a small Chinese restaurant, and they feed me dinner (’cause they’re awesome) so I grabbed the bowls and rushed them up to the counter, to the cook, and he filled them. I took them back around and was about to eat when a customer came in.

      Eh. That’s fine. I can help one. (I don’t have a choice – I was the only cashier there today.)

      When she got done deciding an eternity later, there was another behind her. And by the time I rang up that order, there was a LINE OF FIVE PEOPLE AND THERE SCREAMING TODDLERS waiting.

      I got back to my (cold) beef and broccoli at 8:05.

      To finish work at closing time, I have to start cleaning the bathrooms and floors at 7:50.

      Guys… I know you don’t mean any harm by coming in and buying our food, but GET OUTTA MY WORKPLACE WHEN I’MMMA EATIN’ MAH DINNER.

      This one comes from my high school days working as a sale’s associate in a department store:

      Jackasses who blantantly look through every size and every style of the folded shirts on a shelf only to ask me as I stand there with a very, very, forced smile screwed onto my face (because I have to refold all of said shirts) if we have ONE of those shirts in a particular size. Meanwhile, I’m thinking “You freaking tell me!”

      Here’s another one:

      I have a friend who’s getting into anime, but comes to me about what to watch so we watch a lot of shows together. The problem is that she’s the kind of person who asks constant questions…questions that would answer themselves if she simply waited a few more minutes. On top of that, she tends to check her phone at EXACTLY the moment when an important question is answered. So, I told her if she misses something I’m not explaining it later.

      Hate at school:

      -Talk blocking

      -Talking during when I need to listen to a teacher

      -people blocking the doorways

      -people that cut in front while driving without turn signals

      The most I hate is when the internet drops all of a sudden

      who here can relate to these?

      Depends. Do they move when they realize what they’re doing?

      Doesn’t happen here in Kansas. Not enough to remember, at least.

      But yes, it is infuriating.

      or when the BASS drops all of the sudden?? woooo1

      How about when the teacher gives you a group assignment and you’re one of only two people

      who actually does the bulk of the work?

      sometimes no

      When you go to the grocery store and come out and find someone with a large truck or car

      parked next to you and you can’t see either direction to tell if anyone’s coming.

      The internet is working fine but then for some reason it starts acting broken and either loads the pages all screwy or doesn’t work at all.
      Or when you want to print something it won’t and then when it does all it prints is pages of the same thing until it either runs out of paper or it’s finished.
      *Bump*
