What irritates you most? Pet Peeves etc.

guys who like asian girls because they watch too much anime and expect me to act demure, submissive, give a lot of peace signs and make squealy can meows.

And people who ask me "what's my name in Oriental?"

Haha, I've been attracted to asian girls since i was like 10, and i'd have to say that the girls in anime movies are only attractive when they are kicking ass and shooting rocket launchers

Sadly, being an animation/illustration major means not only my classmates are otaku scary anime freaks.. but a good portion of my profs are all look at me with this glazed over look... and I know they're imagining tentacle monsters.

i am a member of an amime club. but i dont expect asian girls to be all anime chick like.

the ever popular line of "We can still be friends.." dammit just say I'm a fucking loser or something.

- strangers who touch me
- strangers who sweat on me
- bars where people go and you can't stand without a stranger touching or sweating on you
- people shakin' their legs while we're sitting on the same seat/bench
- unreasonably loud breathing
- fake coughing
- justin timberlake pretending to be michael jackson
- pseudo-intellectuals
- liars
- pathological liars
- dirty old men


that's all i can think of right now.

drivers that leave their turn signals on

Okay, i'll bite, here is what pisses me off, and I am in a REALLY great mood today, so there is a little spice thrown in for good measure:

- stupidity (i'm not even willing to give people who "Want" to learn the chance, you should have already fucking done it.)

- Vanity (I fucking hate people who talk about themselves nonstop, or feel the need to tell people that they would have sex with their self because they're so hot, fuck you, nobody cares, I don't wanna hear it, oh and on the flip side of the coin, if you think you're think you're too fat, you are, why should MY opinion matter, it's YOUR body - )

Pretentious fuckwits - I don't care who you are or what you do and especially not what you can do for me, if you are a fucking snob, if you are being condescending to me, I will call you your rightful name, a cunt.

homophobes - see: 'stupidity' plain and simple, why the fuck do YOU care who SOMEBODY ELSE is fucking?

Animal Abusers - If I were to ever buy a gun, this would be the reason, not to protect myself, not to feel safer walking the streets at night, but to go out and paint the walls with the brains of people who lock up animals, or beat them, or scream at them, and think that it is anything remotely close to okay.

Religion: Every major problem in this world is linked to religion, the priesthood is in chaos, and the whole business model is built on FEAR, they are here to assume power over you, and control you by invoking the fear that you will burn in a fiery pit for eternity.. they say nobody knows for sure, but i'm the gambling type, and I call bullshit.

Drug ADDICTS - I have nothing against anyone who chooses to USE drugs, I am very non judgemental about alot of things, but I have absolutely no respect for anyone that NEEDS a substance, if you can't control it, you shouldn't be doing it, and if you can't handle it, and you o.d and die, you fucking deserve it.

The word slut: double standard bullshit, and I don't buy into it, guys can fuck 20 girls and they're called a stud, but if girls do the same, they're called whores, and sluts - as long as you're careful and self conscious, by all means, it is after all the reason any of us are even alive, and it is our sole niche IN life.

jocks
disloyalty
people who only like ONE genre of music (see stupidity)
people with no integrity

I am blunt, I am always honest, I am FIERCELY loyal, and my word is GOLD

All I have ever wanted in my adult life was to be able to take care of all of my friends from what I am *proud* to call my home town of Portland, I want to be able to provide them everything they need to never have to work again, I honestly owe it to them, because god knows if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be around to complain about the things that do piss me off.

-Idiocy, stupidity, ignorance...these are the demons that haunt me while I work.
-Acting like you know how to fix something, when you can't even get the fucking terminology correct, and you don't even know what's wrong.
-Religious "zealots", especially within my family.
-My own fucking ego has irritated me before.

People oblivious to their surroundings. i.e. the guy in traffic who does whatever the hell he wants like he's the only guy on the road, or (my personal 'favorite') the old woman at the grocery/department store who while walking stridently up the aisle decides to abruptly stop on a dime to contemplate life. Or the ones that just park their cart sideways (blocking the whole aisle) while they yell at their kids for ten minutes.

That's the main peeve ... I have too many to mention.
After working for many years in retail, I developed a great hatred for the oblivious, ignorant, and just plain stupid people out there. Sadly, they seem to be the majority.

I may sometimes live in my own little world, but whenever I'm in the world of the living, I'm the most cordial motherfucker you'd ever hope to meet ... I hold doors, get out of your way, say "excuse me" instead of just ramming my cart into you ... you know, stuff like that. Is that all that fucking difficult?

the fact that my post wasn't nearly as eloquant and well worded as Conceited1's and I started the fucking thread... I'll be over here now...

- people who can't (or won't) understand how their actions affect those around them.
- anti-intellectuals who think stupid is better than educated
- people who think their religion, nation, or political party is the only one that matters
- people who let their babies scream in public places
- people who talk on a cell phone while interacting with a cashier at a store
- people who say "I'm soooooo bad at math/spelling", like it's cute to have a huge deficiency in basic skills.

hee hee hee hee hee

i never thought of it that way. that's awesome

I disagree... I am soooooo bad at math. However that doesn't dictate that I am stupid, i score better then 99.9% of people in all non-math related areas. My IQ is above normal, and when I was in college I was ALWAYS on the Deans list. I also have pretty damn good common sense and street smarts...

so.... by suggesting somebody who admits to being bad in one subject is stupid is ridiculous. Seems like you're saying that you have to be good in ALL areas to be intelligent.

I took 4 years of remedial math while at the same time taking college level courses in all my other classes during highschool....

So by admitting that I'm bad with arithmatic does that mean I'm stupid?

editied for poor grammar skills (yes people, that is sarcasm)

No no no, I didn't mean that people who are bad at math/spelling are stupid, not at all. I'm sorry if I gave that impression. It's perfectly understandable to have a deficiency in some basic skills... all of us have things we aren't good at. It's the COMPLACENCY about it that irks me. The people who could learn those things if they tried, but can't be bothered because they think it's an endearing character trait.

And actually it's not even so much complacency on an individual level as on the cultural level. In our society, it's embarrassing to be unable to read, but perfectly okay to be unable to do basic arithmetic. Why? They're both fundamental skills that we teach to all children. I think that problems with basic math should be treated as a kind of illiteracy and dealt with rather than shrugged off.

Is this unreasonable? (That's not a rhetorical question, feel free to correct me if it is.) I'll admit that I'm waaaay biased here -- I've always been a math geek and I don't really understand why some people don't get it. But we're talking about pet peeves here; they don't have to be reasonable.

when people confuse the tv show Fear Factor with the band Fear Factory.

-i agree on the blonde girls with tans

im hateful...i could go on forever

blisters and flaps of skin on the roof of your mouth after eating hot food.
Benedryl hangovers

Not being in a meaningful relationship
Being in a meaningful realationship
Dishes and laundry

The fact that there are only 24 hours in a day.
Having to pay for parking anywhere.
Bad driving etiquette
People who react to other people's bad driving etiquette
addiction to anything
Deep down inside on some basic level I am an asshole. I'm getting better at hiding it as I get older, but it really tics me off when I show it in public.

Couple more that I forgot,
Guys who won't admit that I know more about sports than they do because I'm a girl,
Middle-aged women who talk down to me. This happens a lot at work (I'm currently a waitress) but also in general, out in public, middle-aged women do not like me.
Actually, people who assume I'm stupid because I'm waiting tables in general piss me off. I want to wear a sign that says "I graduated magna cum laude, you fucks, and I'm doing this because I make more money at it than I would teaching high school."
And people who don't call when they say they will.

when people bring back 2 and a half year old threads

When someone takes a drag off of a cigarette, disposes of the cigarette, then walks into where they aren't allowed to smoke and EXHALE.

Dirt bag.

There's a guy at my work that does this. It makes me stabby.

Hell, I'm an angry little boy. I think most things piss me off, at least some of the time. Here's a succinct list.

When people get away with crazy shit, but I get crucified for screwing up a little thing.
Bad Beer.
When people put words in my mouth.

I have the weirdest pet peeves.

1. When people say "hung" when referring to a person being executed by hanging. The correct term is "hanged". If you say, "He hung himself!", I will rip out your fucking tongue.

2. Fahrenheit

3. Anything from Apple

4. Guys with long hair

5. Any children from birth to 16 years old.

6. When people have a preference between Coke and Pepsi, and refuse to drink the other when it is the only thing offered in an eating establishment.

7. Hippies

8. Protesting

9. The French

10. Blondes
