Things that bother the holy bejesus and living fuck out of me

Buses

In fact public transport of all kinds.

The irritating bastard security at my university who won't let me have a parking permit for my car.

Bus drivers.

People who think people can "just snap out" of depression


That is so true and bothering as hell.

People who don't get irony or sarcasm.

Old people behind the driver's wheel.

The attitude of some old people who think they are right just because they inhabit this world longer than you do.

People that can't distinct between Germans and Nazis.

Alcohol.

Tv ads.

Ringtones. I really fucking hate this new ringtone-download-mania that'S going on in Germany right now. Disgusting.

professors who literally have your entire GPA wrapped around their finger and they could care less

people who dont flush... you know who you are... mr. hanky only comes out at christmas, children

platitudes used at funerals... *they're much better off now*...ect. yes, fine, that may be.. please try to be a bit more creative.

conformists who have no idea why they do so...

*hugs*
 
Cell phones. People, you don't need to be 'in touch' all the tme. Maybe you should spend a bit more time thinking instead of talking.

Drivers. 'Rules of the Road' are not just suggestions. And could you please look where you're going before you make a turn?
 
People who say I really MUST try ski-ing, as if I'm some nutcase who simply never realised what fun I'd inevitably have

Adding to this... people who insist I must go skiing, them come back with a broken arm or leg still telling me they had fun and that I should go next time... and that they'll teach me. :rolleyes:

More? OK...

People who mention Jesus more than 5 times a minute.

People who can't talk about the war without using the words "Towel Heads"

Anyone who tells me I have to "Take one for the team"

Anyone who tells me to give 110%

Poeple who buy 20 sheets of plywood at Home Depot and stack them on the roof of their car, held down by a peice of twine (and their arm out the window, holding on)

Celebrities and society types who complain about how hard their lives are and how no one understands.

CEOs who lay off a thousand employees because 'Profits are down', then give themselves a 4 million dollar raise because they saved the company money.

OK, I'll stop now, I'm getting cranky.
 
Some more -

Any pressure group with "family" in the title. They mean their version of what a family should be. They don't mean you.

People who text. Sorry, but it's a fucking phone for fucking talking into. You're using it like a severely limited typewriter. Stop it.

People who use mobile phones on the designated quiet carriage of the train, and then look nonplussed if you tell them not to.

Airline staff who insist that, yes, a pair of nail clippers is JUST the sort of thing Osama would use.

People who say they "don't really understand" politics. Make an effort, for chrissakes, it's your future they're deciding.

Plumbers who won't take a job more than three miles from their home, even if it's a slam-dunk hundred quid for doing next to nothing.

People who do that smile and shaking head thing, to imply they know something you'll never quite understand.

People who think playing politics at work is actually clever and the point of being at work.
 
People who don't know when to stop, (telling jokes, harrassing, talking religion/politics/foreign affairs, fill-in-the-blank.)

People who think they are being funny and entertaining when they're really only making asses of themselves.

Drivers who don't know how to merge into traffic, (they stop until a clear space opens up, even if they have a long lane for merging.)

Drivers who don't allow people to merge, because that one car-length really does matter!

People who drive with their egos rather than their brains.

People who won't stand up for something because they're too damned afraid of "making a fuss" or becoming unpopular. Grow some fucking balls.

People who assume that just because I'm a strong, educated woman, I'm automatically a feminist and/or a liberal.

I love that pic. I had it hanging on my office wall last year. :D

Ok, a few more...

People who go into Home Depot and ask the kid working there, "I want to rewire my entire house, how do I do that?" If you don't already know, hire an electrician or you'll probablly either electrocute yourself or burn your house down. (Maybe both)

Anyone who names their child after a celebrity.

People who think they drive really cool cars and have to take 4 parking spots to show how cool they are.

People who hold up the line at the supermarket arguing with the checkout girl over 11 cents.

People who wont bag their own groceries at the checkout and wait for the girl to ring it all in then watch while she bags it too.
 
Ok, seriously now, these are things that bother me:

People who are only there for me when they need something.

"Fair weather" friends.

People who take, but never give.

People who give out advice, but haven't got a fucking clue what they're talking about.

That just about covers it.

Team players in any context other than team sports.

Absolutely!

Usually uttered by someone grossly higher paid than the rest of "the team".

As in, "We need everyone to be a team player." meaning, we want you willing to do each other's job so we can lay one of you off. We need you to ignore your concept of right and wrong when judging the company's activities. We need you to put in more hours, and be accepting of the decrease in benefits and pay and ignore the massive bonus' recently paid to management.

I do agree.

And add....

people who play down your problems because they don't have them.

Pretentious people who blow smoke up your ass talking endlessly and laboriously over topics they claim to know everything about but in reality don't know Jack Shit.

People who repeat the same fucking thing over and over in an arguement.
 
People who talk on their cell phones while pumping gas, even though the sign says it could cause and explosion.

Must See TV, especially that show Joey.

Teenage girls who dress like it's 1982, but can't even remember 1982 cause they weren't even alive!

People who are republicans, but don't even know why.

Americans who sing with fake English accents.

Adults who act childish and impatient when they have to wait in a line for something.

People who "drop by" without calling first to ask if it's ok.
 
Seeing somebody I love in pain due to something I can do fuck all about.

Funny, I'd rather be happy because of the surprise. Of course it depends on who is dropping by.

AMEN to that. This is one of my biggest 'flaws'. I just can't stand seeing someone be unhappy or even cry.
Whenever I see a girl cry I really have to do something about it. I can't stand it.

Have you seen that show "Myth Busters" on the Discovery Channel? One of the myths they tried to bust -and possibly succeeded in doing, depending on your perspective- was the myth around cell-phones and pumping gas.

They couldn't create a situation where the gas would ignite. They got so frustrated one of them said something like, "Jeeez, how hard is it to ignite a tank of gas, for crying out loud?!" I think they ended their show saying something like it was neither proved, nor disproved. Maybe they'll test again someday, when the fire department has a free afternoon. (Fire department was on site at all times during the experiment.)



But hey, why take the chance. *shrug*

Women who keep dogs in their purses
That's one of my favourite (drumroll) pet peeves.


Also: Dogs in general. A chiuaua and a grand danois simply can NOT be the same spieces anymore. It bugs me.

Now that's silly logic, Liar. What about the range in fish and birds? Where would you draw the line? Uh oh, did I not get a joke? P, :confused:
