I become overly annoyed when someone quotes me on a Eoff (and other forums) but they somehow manage to include a spelling or grammar mistake which was not in my post. How does that even happen!?

People
Open cabinet doors and spices in the spice rack not being evenly spaced and label facing forward. :nonono:
People who hold open doors for me even though I'm clearly about ten yards away. This forces me to actually break into a run in order to accept this "kind gesture."
I know you're only trying to do a nice thing but don't...
I'm fully capable of opening a door myself
Oh, everything.
Stop smurfing giving me notes I have no change. And people who pick their nose. Both can go to smurfing hell.

When people stop the microwave a few seconds short and then don't reset the time. First of all, why can't you wait the extra 3 seconds, and second, why can't you just press the reset button?
remember earlier this week when i went crazy and made posts in eoff?
the entire time i was arguing against myself - why should a privileged, north american person ever be allowed to be annoyed by anything.
#firstworldproblems
#whitepeopleproblems
etc, right?
I still haven't figured out a reason. Other than cold, brainless science - that we're animals and thus are allowed to have stress.
what truly bothers me? idiots on the road who can't drive. I don't have road rage but I have very little patience for the crap I see every day - merging into my lane without signalling, making turns into the wrong lane, tailgating me (i want to 'brake test' so often it's not funny), speeding in residential zones, making illegal turns.
Every time I see a person pulled over I think to myself that they deserved it.

I have a habit of insisting that I'm right about everything. My mother insists on telling me that I'm not. When we begin to argue, she raises her voice to make her point and combat her on equal footing. Then she tells me that I'm only capable of winning an argument by yelling.
There's this one chick who knows that I hate it when she deprecates me in the slightest. For example, she tells me that I'm awkward. It's more or less true, but she knows it still annoys me and that's the only reason she mentions it. (SPOILER)If she were somehow convinced her insults meant nothing to me, she would stop talking to me. Unfortunately, nothing I do or say manages to convince her and even ignoring her doesn't stop her from tracking me down and prattling on. She thinks of me as a pet rodent that she cared for so now even though I'd love nothing more than to get away, she's always there.
I don't like checking the mail and finding nothing in there. It's not like I'm expecting anything in particular, I just somehow always expect there to be SOMETHING in the mailbox.
There are other things, I'm sure.

I've also had to put up with too much defensive driving in my life so stupid drivers make the list.
Yeah like this one time I was really working a crowd and telling great jokes and some other douchebag walks in and starts stealing my thunder :greenie: But no I agree with you!Quote:

People tagging me in pictures on facebook that have nothing to do with me. Tagging games I can forgive, I post a comment about it, laugh, and then remove the tag after a little while just so things don't become cluttered. Tagging me in a photo of you and your dog and selecting your dog's nutsack as my "face" is pretty funny and I might just leave it there forever. But tagging me in a photo of you at the homecoming dance for a school I never even went to is just weird. If I never ever removed tags, 90% of the "Photos of Me" section would actually be photos and videos of a certain Lady Gaga impersonator I know. There have been literally dozens.
Oh I made a post about this before

It annoys me when people make fun of other people in a mean-spirited way (like saying someone's name is just gobbletygook!)
I was just about to take my computer out back and just smash it to bits. My computer is expensive.
What reason? the monitor cables are loose.
I'm not kidding you. I was swearing up and down and when I fixed everything I kicked my computer as a final act of anger and now the case cover is warped.
If I had gone out back to destroy it, I wouldn't have given a damn. I'd probably wait until 2012 and just bought another computer, the entire time begrudging my very random temper.
(I don't know why I get mad. Every time I get mad I argue with myself that getting mad is pointless, not efficient, and that I should stop. Then I get even more mad anyway)
Racism
Couples who use a profile pic with both of them in it on facebook so I spend 5 seconds thinking its a post by one of them when it was really a post by the other.
That only bothers me when they use the same picture for both accounts. Joint accounts I think would bother me too, but everyone I know with one doesn't actually share it with their boyfriend as the name implies.
Being on a train. I don't know what it is, I don't have this issue on planes or even, god forbid, coaches/buses, but if I'm on a train journey that's going to last longer than like, half an hour...christ, I become the most miserable hate filled tit the world has ever known. There is nothing like being on a train that can make me hate everything and everyone around me with a burning passion. Couple of weeks ago I just went up to London and back on the train to visit my best friend and see distant worlds, and god damn the train journey smurfed me right off. Like people who wouldn't even normally bother me outside of the environment of a train ended up making me so annoyed I wanted to reach over the chairs and choke them out.
Mind you, this time was actually the best time ever for me. There was one guy in particular who pissed me off something rotten, mainly because he sat in a reserved seat that belonged to someone else, refused to get up when they got on the train and they ended up sitting next to me. I wouldn't normally care so much but literally the day before I left to get on the train it was raining real bad where I live and I had to go out, and I live on top of a filthy steep hill and I ended up slipping over thanks to my tit old shoes and taking all the skin off my right knee. This in itself wasn't so bad, but then 5 minutes later I slipped again and landed on the same knee, shredding all this freshly raw skin down a rough stony pavement and took out a massive lump of skin and bled everywhere. It sucked. A LOT. Add this to the fact that I'm tall and have long ass legs, having to cramp up in a train seat for 4 hours with all this tit going on made the whole thing very uncomfortable.
So yeah I was less than impressed with this asshole in front of me in the reserved seat that wasn't his. But then justice prevailed! Halfway through the journey he swapped seats with the woman next to him for some reason, I think so he could talk to his moron friends. Either way when I got up to get ready to get off the train, I decided to just get up as soon as we left the penultimate station, and get off the train first. And as I was pulling my suitcase down from the case rack, which was rather heavy, it started to slip and as I had a bag in my other hand I could tell I wasn't going to catch it. Soft lad in front of me was leaning forward talking to his friends or some tit, and my case ended up flying off the rack and landing on his back. Right on the corner edge! I swear to god, you have no idea how happy that made me. I gave him the least sincere apology anyone has ever given while he kind of flailed about groaning about his back and then walked out to where the door on the train is going YESSSSSSS, YESSSSSSS and pulling some ghetto victory pose after just wrecking this dude. I didn't know that the woman sitting opposite him was coming out right behind me so what she made of all this I don't know, but I didn't care. That'll teach the gimpy smurfer and his stupid hair and ginger goatee and nancy boy flesh tunnel earrings to sit in someone elses seat on the train. Twat.
Jesus christ see this is what being on a train does to me it was two weeks ago and just posting about it still turned me into Steve (although not really, I was on a train and didn't obtain 4 somalian girls phone numbers with just a glance and a flash of my receding hairline, so not quite full Iceglow just yet) :( someone save me
It really bothers me when people use "[NAME] and I" when it should be "[NAME] and me." It's so unbearably smurfing common that people do it in movies, on the news... all the time! They do it so much that I really should just lay back and accept it, but, alas, I cannot.
Do things like "nauseated vs. nauseous" bother you too?Quote:

The one that says "I'm hot, your not"?!
I don't remember what it actually said. It was like white with grey text and had a big fat YOUR that sent my panties all a-twisting.
Wow Shlup your really messed up, but I would've liked to have read you're letter.
It had a whole part about social responsibility. It was good.
I once wrote a strongly worded letter to Crayola for retiring the "teal blue" crayon.Quote:

I want to read both those letters.
I like it.
My mother raised me this way. She once ate Klondike bar and had the chocolate shell crumble on her in a way that left her dissatisfied, and the company sent us a two month supply of various iced creams.
For Christmas maybe six year ago I got a pack of 100 cookie cutters for Christmas, but a couple of the shapes were missing. I sent them a letter and they send me a whole new package of 101 cookie cutters. I donated the duplicates to a preschool.
i don't like my slow ass-internet even though i know it shouldn't bother me because i'm lucky enough to have internet.
i don't like annoying loud obnoxious ringtones. i don't care if you like the crazy frog axel f remix. get a ringtone that won't piss off people around you every time you get a text or a facebook status update every five minutes from your friend saying "my dog has worms" and then "i'm going to the pharmacy to get worm medicine" and then "i'm going to h-e-b since i'm out" and then "i forgot i need eggs. i think i'll make a cake today" and then "trying to decide what kind of cake i should make" and then "decided on chocolate but don't have chocolate cake mix or icing. going to the store again" and then "have a flat tire. forgot to take car for checkup a week ago because i was on facebook"
i don't like facebook. i don't understand the appeal. it's just a combination of talking and looking at pictures, with the added bonus of other people seeing how many friends you have. "i use it to keep in touch with my friends." you could smurfing visit them. "well they're too far to visit." you could call them on the phone. "they don't have a phone." well then why the smurf do they have a computer?
i don't like it when people's phones go off at the movie theater. i paid good money to see this movie. the least you could do is be courteous enough to put your phone on silent when the big thing comes up on the screen saying "please turn off your cell phones." or if you're expecting a call in the middle of your movie then put it on vibrate. although why you would be at the movies if you were expecting an important call is beyond me. and if you have to answer it go outside. i don't want to hear you going "yeah no it's cool i can talk dude" while i'm trying to laugh at russell brand's weird acting style in the remake of arthur.
i don't like people using the expression "the pot calling the kettle black." just call someone an ignorant hypocrite. it's funnier and more insulting. win-win.
i don't like it when people make long lists about things they don't like which are actually just two or three things that they went on a rant about. like this one.
also, schlupquack is awesome.
edit: and i fail at url tags.
1. Mickey Mouse pisses me off with his goofy singing. :D
2. People who dislike older video games because they are too "hard" or have bad graphics, but where did their "new age" games come from? ..Hmm that's a tough one. (Example: I showed my friend Heroes 3, he said that it is Adventure Quest and it sucks. Later I showed him Heroes 5 and he said that it is a lot better..)
EDIT: Oh one more, people who ask for cigarettes, but they do not smoke themselves, they never even buy. Or when I am having my first cigarette of the day and then a dude comes and asks if I can leave him half. They are milking me, like I am a smurfing millionaire.
When people turn off their cars with the wipers going and the wipers get left half way up the window. Not sure why but it really bothers me. My friends do it on purpose to get a reaction.
People who, when on their computer using a keyboard, still type like they are texting. I can forgive someone for typing like an idiot when texting but when on a computer and they still use "u" "r" etc, it drives me insane. I often voice my opinion on it. It makes me laugh when they try to insult someone like that. It takes more time trying to figure out what they said than the time spent for you to get insulted by it.

I have a cousin that types like that, except for "u". Instead of "u" she types "yhu". That isn't laziness, that is deliberate.Quote:

I know making money shouldn't bother me, but it kinda does. Although the pleasure it brings, is undeniable.
This is a thing that definitely should bother you and does!Quote:

Working and having to have a job in general bothers me.
If I could live out the rest of my life writing, reading, and playing videogames, then I would.
