You will not believe how much crap the Kong application of FFR took while it was functional.

"It's too hard! FFR sucks!" etc etc ad infinitum.

@reuben: I know what you're talking about- "How many times can you click the goddamn button in a minute?"

A few others that happened today:
21 - When the soft drink dispenser releases ice in a slushy and not cube form
22 - When I'm like 310761032481203784 miles away from the door and someone holds it open for me and awkwardly waits for me to arrive.[/list]

Makes you feel like you need to jog to the door now.

- Pens that don't work, then work after scribbling, then fade out slowly while writing, then work for 0.8 seconds, then stop working.
- When you jump after being on a trampoline. (This actually makes me crazy.)
- Uncharged items (360 Remote, Cell phone, iPod etc...)
- People who dislike a comment so they mock it to make themselves feel better.
- Catpcha's that fail 100 times or give you dumb symbols (╒.╥╘♣Γ)

Things that piss me off:

-when you tell someone something and tell them "don't tell anyone" and they still do
-When men only talk to you (girls) for one reason
-when I can't do my hair in the morning knowing I have like 5 minutes to be out the house
-MEN!
-When you go to the bathroom and after you realize there's no toilet paper x.x
-Living in a house with 2 men
-People who chew like "cows"
-nails on a chalk board
-When other people take my belongings w/out asking
-Being touced when stated "I don't want to be touched"
-Hair in the shower
-Being chased up the stairs
-Yankees!
-Laying in bed and thinking about things you had to do during the day and forgot
-laying in bed finding it nessaccary to get up and make sure the front door is locked
-when you want something so bad knowing its in the house and come to find out someone already finished it
-people who say "just saying"
-fat girls on the beach x.x
-guys that beep at a good looking girl while she's walking


This list could go on and on.....

What do you mean by men? If you are unable to tolerate men, I suggest staying away from the Internet in general.

edit: whoops forgot my pet peeve.
I hate when people make a massive generalisation about different groups/types of people, based solely on personal experience.

Oh, and shit talkers on Xbox Live.

I know, and if you don't jog they give you that "Why the hell are you being so slow?" look.

23. This, I know what you mean, I don't want to open up character map and search for upside-down-delta, subscript x, upside-down-A, lambda.

Are you saying you don't mind if they make massive generalizations based on other things like statistical data?

Oh, my god. I ****ing HATE that. I know exactly where you're coming from. It's so annoying. The correct term is "a lot" and some people don't seem to realize that. Come on! What, are you 3 or something?

This pisses me off too, which is why I use subtitles as well, mostly because the people or characters on the screen are talking too damn fast, but yeah, I see were you're going with this.

[Oni-Paranoia]

My TV is loud because only because the shows are at 50% volume and the commercials are at 120%. Another pet peeve, loud commercials.

1. I cannot stand this either. It bugs the **** out of me.

2. Guess what? I'm one of those people. I don't blame you, though.

As long as it's valid and justified. For instance, I would be fine with "Since Asia is where noodles originated from, and it is a cheap, commonly encountered food, we can deduce that most Asians eat noodles." opposed to "supermousie is Asian and he eats noodles, therefore, all Asians eat noodles." or "All Asians eat noodles. It's a fact"

So, basically you just dislike generalizations that have no valid fact behind them, but you don't mind them if there's been logic and reasoning put into it. Makes sense.

Which brings me to this.

-BAD LOGIC. .____.

It's a fact"

Ok, I see where you're coming from. That makes sense. As long as I don't say something along the lines "we can deduce that ALL Asians eat noodles." It is almost never ok to use the word "all" in a generalization since the majority does not represent all.

Also, bad logic, yes. Annoys the heck out of me. Especially the classic fallacy "if p implies q, then q implies p" or "if p implies q, then not p implies not q." I also hate explaining to people how they can't use circular reasoning, it just doesn't work.

Tl;dr Ignorant people

Another pet peeve:
People posting a tl;dr version of my post right after I post. I get over it though because then I realize that what I posted before was probably too verbsoe and lengthy and too drawn out and that I didn't get to the point soon enough. It also reminds me of the fact that there are some people that go to these forums that are not going to read walls of text, hence why a tl;dr version is needed sometimes for people like those. Thanks for the reminder.

tl;dr I should have posted a tl;dr last post

That tl;dr was about my post.

tl;dr I made a boo-boo.

[reuben_tate]

Oh sorry, that was my bad. I misinterpreted what you said.

[SnuggyBunny]

This is pretty random but my biggest pet peeve is when people drive slow in the left lane on the highway. Slow people need to learn how to move the **** over. -_-

[iEnvy TR0lls]
