My housemate. His mother. Their detestable deceitful dishonesty. And my housemate being basically caught stealing $500 from another housemate...and his mother lying for him by being all 'oh no, I said bond but I didn't mean bond. I meant other money I'm still owed by someone else'
....ALL OVER FACEBOOK!!!
some people today....
but at least I now know where horrible housemate gets his 'publicly cause trouble on Facebook instead of confronting the actual issue' attitude. Douchefails...

Nothing can put me into a coma faster than that. Nothing!
Whilst we're on about people who walk too slowly, () how about people who either dither about in front of you on a crowded street, or worse: those that stop without warning to dither further/send a feckin' text message/generally fart about like they have all the time in the world, which they probably do?
And people who walk towards you two abreast who clearly see you approaching, who then make you walk pass over the kerb into the road because they won't make any attempt to let you pass.

Just walk into them, you never know who you might bump into that way.

There were these three chaps recently who decided to set up camp at the bottom of the escalator in Camden Town tube. Helpful, it wasn't.

That would make for an interesting dating site ad.
I say 'interesting' when I really mean less boring that that one with the dude on the platform at the station.
I've just thought of another one! People who wander up and down aimlessly when on the phone to someone. Cordless devices have a lot to answer for. Stay bloody still!

I won't list them as I'll be here all day, I'll just post one or two as they annoy me at the time of my forum visit.
Twitter parodies annoy me, they're either stupidly unfunny and just recycle the same jokes from one another or just contain pointless quotes that try to sound inspirational.
Also people with this haircut
Also the person in that picture.
I'm sorry that you all had to see that.

In relation to that I also can't stand people who do nothing but go on about how much they hate their exs, etc. here's an idea, stop with that crap and you might not have so many exs you can't stand.

Well... f***.
Joking aside I'll list my own hates:
Mum's mood swings... I hate it. It just doesn't seem right one minute she's talkative, then the next she threatens you with eviction... what the fuck?!
Microtransactions. I know you're desperate but you are not going to ask me to play a game only to see a purchase pack thrown in my face a few seconds after. just fuck off..! (Note: sorry Balladeer, it really annoys me that much)
Speaking of which, Adverts. I mean ALL of them. Way to make yourselves an easy target you bunch of jerks!
The Government. Don't you dare get me started on this...
Last one and it's a big one: The PlayStation 3. It's a great console when it's done right (See inFAMOUS 2, Ratchet and Clank Future), but for the most part, the internet plain sucks on it, most if not all the multiformat titles run slower and look like shit, the install times are atrocious and... GYAAAH!!!
Not to say all of the PS3 is bad, just there are so many bugbears with it. If I want to add a Sidenote, look at Microsoft today... *Facepalm*

And to continue the reminding chain, the use of homophobic or sexist slang as insults. "Fag" is the big one, but "whore", "slut", "poof", and "gay" used as an insult all qualify. Sorry SPL. (And hello CVG Off-Topic!)
My ex was pretty awful too, but I could go on about that entire affair for hours so I won't. :bom:
I agree with the microtransactions, though, and with that being a proportionate response to them!

On another forum where you and someone else is having more or less a conversation about something and then in the middle of it you see "OMG I'M SO EXCITED" or in the other thread we were talking about "MEH NOT SO MUCH EXCITEMENT"..
I so want to say well thank you for the most imaginative input or something along those lines

"For all intensive purposes" and "definately". There was another one but I've wiped it from my mind (go me!).

I could care less what you think
Actually, this expression is interpreted in a narrow way. I see it as being a shortening of 'I could care less, but I don't'. It is like people who say "yes, no'. Sure, it is annoying and they should make their mind up before talking, but it can also mean a shortening to something like, 'Yes, I hear that, but No, I don't agree'. I don't think we need to take either of them quite so literally.
As for me, what pisses me of probably the most in speech is: People who end all of their sentences on high notes. A high note indicates emphasis people. Not every sentence you make needs it! People who correct my English pronounciation, when mine is technically correct. I say harass-ment, not ha-rass-ment. Stop correcting me!
As for most things in life, I have managed to chill with age. I stopped taking a marker with me and correcting spelling and grammar everywhere I went, although, as soon as I get paperwork for my job, I still change 'z' to 's' so it doesn't bother my eyes and I still correct all downloads from American to UK English.
I still get pissed of at people who throw cigarette butts out of their car windows. I still hate patriotism and flag worshipping. I still hate homophobia and xenophobia. I still hate corporate pop music and artists. I still hate gamers who hate Nintendo. I still hate conservatives in politics. I still hate people who put jobs and money over the environment. I still hate sport being more important than arts and science.
Actually, I haven't really changed much
