Niggling annoyances

[EEVILMURRAY]

This is a topic for those little annoying things in life. So I don't want a rant which'll make me use the scroll button four times on chavs. This is for those things which you wouldn't mention normally because you're only reminded they annoy you when it actually happens.

I shall start with Footballers clapping above their heads when they've been substituted off the pitch.

Go.

[Raining_again]

when people talk really loudly when you're on the phone, that really bugs me.

Also when i'm listenin to music wi heaphones and people shout at me like im deaf.

[rizz]

People who never talk about anything other than college work or World Of Warcraft.

Also when i'm listenin to music wi heaphones and people shout at me like im deaf.

You obviously dont listen with the headphones as loud as me then :P Again, my friends dont shout, I just dont hear them :(

[AshMat]

I ahte people who shout down the phone, i always shout baack telling them to TALK QUIETER FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!

The crazy frog, people in my it lesson who keep asking me what to do when im getting on with my work listening tosome music at the same time.

[Raining_again]

I just pretend i can't hear them :D so they shout louder :heh: dont they get the point, if ur listenin to headphones you dont wanna be disturbed unless its important :angry:

[Ashley]

Although the reverse is fun, if you're listening to something quiet and some cocky teens say something like "hi" because they think you can't hear them its always fun to just say hi back and watch their surprised looks.

[dukkadukka]

when you're on a busy train and you're squashed next to stinking heffers.

[Haver]

Never, ever being paid what I'm owed.

[JonSt]

I'll second that.

[#1cubeplayer]

It pisses me off when people ramble on about subjects they don't understand but are oblivious to the fact that they don't know much.

People with bad breath are annoying, too. If they're my friends I will let them know that they stink and are badly in need of a mint. Otherwise, I try to just look away or something when they speak.

[RoadKill]

Not that much really bugs me except general disrespect.

[Raining_again]

It pisses me off when people ramble on about subjects they don't understand but are oblivious to the fact that they don't know much.

so true, theres a guy in at work, reckons hes so good wi computers an all that, yet he wont download a firewall (EVEN after he has had diallers costing him 100's of pounds!!!!!) he says its 45 minutes that the phones disconnected lmao :D

[ViPeR]

People who get aggressive when drunk for absolutely no reason. "Oh it's just the drink... " Bollocks you're obviously an arsehole anyway.

[Konfucius]

I'm easily annoyed when people talk about a subject and don't know half as much as I do but insist on their point even when there is clear proof that they are wrong - but I guess everyone is annoyed by this.

[Stefkov]

i hate it when people do stuff which doesnt need to be done, like double clicking on the pc when they only need to click once, and i hate it when people talk really quiet then expect you to answer then they get annoyed cos you dont answer.

[E3wannabe]

I hate it when people say reviews are just opinions because they blatantly aren't. Theres a very big difference between the two!

[BeerMonkey]

when your near the front at a gig and someone crowd surfing comes over you and kicks you in the head etc

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

I find the costs of Texts annoying. ten pence for that teeny bit of info? The companies must be making a fortune.

And the fact that the human race finds it so crucial to interrupt a vital bodily mechanism daily -- SLEEP. I don't understand why humanity forces itself to wake up every day. Can't be healthy.

Not really little annoyances, but hey.

[BeerMonkey]

the fact clubs close at 2am etc.....i want it open 24/7 i wanna go home when i want to

[Platty]

when im listening to my creative zen on the train and i fart and im not sure if its a loud one or not....

[system_error]

This is a thread like in my dreams - I could fill thousands of pages with annoying things.

I hate it that some guys renamed "Raider" into "Twix". People who block the bus doors when I want to get out. Certain people think that they don't need to shower or use a anti transpyrant (lol alright I think I just made up that word).

German translation of US TV shows. My internet connection.
Man I get angry instantly I better stop now and post the rest tomorrow...

[LukeLee]

i HATE it when people block shopping ailes with their prams.

[Ray Falling]

A thing that really annoys me is that I always seem to pick the wrong thing of everything.

For starters I have the one game with the bug in it. I choose the wrong cash register all the time, all logic fails and something bad will just happen in the line I choose.
I pick the wrong batteries. I pick the one thing with the broken thing n_n

Traffic lights will jump to green no matter what, you dont have to push the button yet people push it. And even if I already did, people will push it again as if traffic will go faster then...as if they question my capability of pushing a damn button.

Bananas, those are annoying, cant ever open em ;_;

And last for now: People on msn who find me interesting based on "how was your day?" and "what school do you attend to"?

Aww I can bitch about stuff forever n_n

[Stocka]

People on msn that are like 'wat r u up 2'

[rizz]

Yeah, 'what you doing?', 'take a wild guess my friend' or 'im totally not using the net, and msn, and stuff'.

[Kurtle Squad]

The discrimination of white undisabled atheist males!!

People are like "you can't discriminate etc against women, religions, defferent races or the disabled."
And then the Govt. & the media blatently disriminate against the opposites!!!

[|Laguna|]

People on msn that are like 'wat r u up 2'

So so so fecking true. i mean what else could you be doing apart from on the Internet for Christ Sakes.

Also people who text talk not becasue they use it to abbreviate but to do it to seem cool. Like when poeple consistently use the word "kewl". Trues me damn insane.

Also when people assume things are good just becasue of a brand and then go and mindlessly buy it without thinking about getting some other alternate product that is just as good. e.g teh iPod

Also on the above point when people buy things just becasue it is popular and they don't really need it. A person I know bought a 20gb iPod and only ahs like 200 songs. Irratating as hell

[Kurtle Squad]

Yeah, that annoys me a lot too

[rizz]

Also on the above point when people buy things just becasue it is popular and they don't really need it. A person I know bought a 20gb iPod and only ahs like 200 songs. Irratating as hell

Yeah, like someone was like 'ive got about 50 albums on my ipod' and people were like omg wow! So i'm like, 'well, i have 239 albums on my zen', but because its not an ipod, no-one gave a shit.

[Wesley]

Depends on what mood I am.

If I'm in a bad mood I could talk for hours on all these little things that annoy me, but in a great mood like I am now I can't.

But one note about people talking really loud on a phone. I think it's because they haven't worked out that because there is a phone, they don't need to shout so loud as though they are actually trying to talk to the other person who is miles away on their phone. They don't seem to understand that the phone carries these messages to the other person.

[dukkadukka]

no.1 niggling annoyance - children

[Stocka]

Yeah, the way people instantly look at iPod as the best compared to every other mp3 player is extremely irritating. I'm not denying iPods are good, its just people think they are the best(because it is so popular) but quite simple ITS NOT.
Jeez, people who follow hype/buy what everyone else buys just to look cool really annoys me.

[Charlie]

Also on the above point when people buy things just becasue it is popular and they don't really need it. A person I know bought a 20gb iPod and only ahs like 200 songs. Irratating as hell

That really annoys me too. Also when people have super-duper smartphones and only use it for texting.

Also how the fit girls only ever talk to you on MSN when they need help with something.... :confused:

And one thing that annoys me more than anything else is "lol". It doesn't mean anything anymore. People used to say it when they found something funny, now people use it all the time for no reason at all... lol. It's even worse when they add a "z" onto the end of it.

Arrgghh

[rizz]

I agree lolz

http://img438.imageshack.us/img438/3749/15characterslol3ms.jpg

[Wesley]

Hahaha!

"lol" has taken away people's laughter!

One girl I know says it at the end of every sentance and it is now meaningless from her. Why can't people just put "haha"?

[Blackfox]

True, however some people see "haha" as arrogant.

[#1cubeplayer]

So so so fecking true. i mean what else could you be doing apart from on the Internet for Christ Sakes.

There are so many things you could be doing on the internet, though.

I find the smilies of this board annoying. They look weird and rarely work.

[Ganon]

When people stand in a 5-10 minute que at McDonalds, then only when they reach the front have a look and decide what to get.

[Smalldude76]

People that bitch and complain about having two tests on one date - they don't stop!

[Bren]

people who eat loudly, ahh that annoys fuck out me, eat with your mouth closed ffs

[Offerman]

People saying 'Dan, we are going to find you a girlfriend'.

No your f**king not! If anybody says that you will be shot.

Also people that don't indicate at roundabouts, and people that tailgate me.

'lol' is chronically overused. People just use it because they canne be bothered to type a proper response...and what else.

Oh yea I agree Viper, bloody drunks. I was at the petrol station last night and this drunk young guy came stumbling up to me saying he loved me. He then stumbled backwards and fell into the newspaper stand and couldnt get up. Pratt!

[Shorty]

For me far worse than 'wot r u up 2' is 'da' and 'der'. Anyone with something like 'wots der time' or 'da dawn of da dead!' in their msn name is up for removal.

Grammar kind of bugs me. I had to leave my supergroup on City of Heroes because the name was "Eye's of Ra", I mean cmon, if you're not sure about apostrophes, at least leave them out.

'lol' only bugs me when I'm standing beside someone who types it, when they didn't. Then I say "No you didn't", they precede to look at me and say "...didn't what?". At which I roll my eyes and walk away. It makes me feel big.

[EEVILMURRAY]

Am I the only one who sees a little problem with that? ;)

[Offerman]

People that are picky about general grammar annoy me.

[The Peeps]

There was a guy I knew who would talk to me but he'd be less than an inch away from my face, if I moved back then he'd move forward... what the hell was that all about?

Also if he ever needed to whisper me he'd be practically licking my ear... He smoked too, so it stank (before you say anything about homosexuals, neither of us are gay and he did that to everyone).

[dukkadukka]

taking about half an hour to actually get onto the forum today because of some "internal forum server error" or something similar.

people who can't spell and make no effort to learn also do my head in!

[Offerman]

people who can't spell and make no effort to learn also do my head in!



You do my head in.

I mean for gods sake its not always entirely the persons fault if they canne spell is it. Its the bloody education system, and narrow minded, short-fused, arrogant individuals like yourself.

I got two sodding A's for English and I canne spell for the life of me - and its not that I don't make an effort. Its because my school never made an effort at teaching people to spell, and the exam board decided it was more important to award marks for how creative and analytical somebody was at deconstructing a poem then spelling.

[dukkadukka]

you really need to stop this personal vendetta you have against me, it's starting to look a little pathetic.

[Offerman]

you really need to stop this personal vendetta you have against me, it's starting to look a little pathetic.

I would have made that above post if anybody had said what you said. You just have a habit of constantly winding me up. Infact, judging by the PM's I get, you wind alot of people up.

[Caris]

Charvs, when your walking along the street and all you hear is HIPPY!!!! casue your wearing some un baggy jeans a grey hoodie :@

[JonSt]

General young hooligans who congragate round the local shops and do nothing but trouble. Last night one started to verbaly abuse my 78 tear old gran, so i went up and physically removed them.

why? because a girl actually stood up to you for once for your lecherous misogyny? and on the pm subject, i've received quite a few that aren't exactly favourable about yourself either (and that includes staff members by the way). but can we call a truce, i don't like keeping grudges, and this little thing we have is starting to annoy me now.

edit- and i'm sure it's annoying other people too, and a mod shouldn't be doing that, should he?

Do you have to keep going on about you being a girl, it doesnt mean your handicapped, i assume youve got a keyboard, so your on the same level as everyone else.

I'm aware of what staff members hate me, and for what its worth I don't intend to stick around this place much longer for that exact reason. I'm not one for calling truces - nor one for getting into clicky groups of people. However forgive me for the outburst, so yes, I apologise. However its probably best for the foreseeable if we just keep out of each others way, at least that way things stay amicable.

[Bowser57]

Eevil said no Chav mentioning. I think we should respect his wishes.

I'm aware of what staff members hate me

Name names!

[Caris]

ah sorry about that didnt see the no charv thing

[Tilim]

Something that really bugs me nowdays is that my connection is freaking unstable.
We live almost too far from the central to get ADSL, but it just worked out, until the day someone decided to put up a new road almost right outside our house.
Their work have completely messed up our connection. :(

I'm an internet whore. :/

And mean people bug me. Sneaking in lines and such. And I hate not getting attention when I want to. Like when I'm depressed and just want to let it all out to someone, but noone seems to care. Hate that. XP

[Raining_again]

I'm an internet whore.


Nice to meet some people like myself :heh:

[Blackfox]

What. The. Fuck.

A simple thread is made as means to vent one's anger about the annoying stuff in life. And within an hour its turned into some bitch fight. Now, im guessing the culprits are both over the age of 12, so sort it out.

[Ray Falling]

The number 3 brush on Photoshop annoys the hell outta me.

And dont get me started on TV...at some point a program is sooo stupid and annoying, you just...sit there dont even like the show, dont even enjoy watching it, dont even follow it for that matter. Its just so mind-numbingly boring that you just fall in some sort of coma and after about 20 minutes you realize that you just wasted alot of valuable time and dont even remeber on what... T_T

[Sarka]

[QUOTE=Offerman]I don't intend to stick around this place much longer for that exact reason./QUOTE]

WHAT?!?! Nooo, Offers, your by far the best member on these boards! Well, Stocka maybe beats you, but still, you can't leave!

And my personal annoyance is that MSN NEVER works! And that B&W2 isn't working!

[Athriller]

You know what annoys me?

Those God Damn threads where you're like, 'hey, I can finally vent and be all up in the world here' and then it's a God damn war zone. I mean, like, why? You know, just chill and shit.

And what's the ticket with airline food?

Yeah ive noticed that happening in quite a few threads. :(

lol, i didn't realise that i did :hehe: but i'll try not to in future, and to anyone else i've pissed off in this thread i'm really really sorry, i'll try and be nicer :kiss:

[Charlie]

I find it really annoying when people constantly ask you how to spell words. Once or twice is OK, but every 5 mins when I'm trying to concentrate on writing my own essay. We're in an english class room, stand up, walk 5 steps and get a dictionary!

[ViPeR]

People who go out with complete assholes, get cheated on and then complain. How about opening your eyes and seeing what the person is truly like, or *shock*... get to know that person. This mainly applies to those god damn whining 16-18yr olds.

[Tilim]

*waves at*

Hi!
Always funny, yeah. :p

Rufio, we are going to find you a girlfriend. :P

[Josh64]

other teenagers who stare at you, then when they are 20 feet away say something like "chav!" or something stupid like that. When I go to my chip shop and the person behind the desk talks so quick I can't undersatnd, when ur made to just copy out of books because the teacher couldn't be arsed to think of anything to do and terribly annoying ads where theres a person shouting. Like the "confused.com" ad, and that one for windows, "YOU BUY ONE YA GET ONE FREE!" They annoy me so much. But apart from that I don't mind much.

[EEVILMURRAY]

and on the pm subject, i've received quite a few that aren't exactly favourable about yourself either (and that includes staff members by the way).

Do members and staff PM you their Anti-Offerman rants often?

[Wesley]

So here is an example of the meaningless "lol".

Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since you ask, you are a flatulent pain in the ass says:
hey
RoSy Nyeh says:
heya
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since you ask, you are a flatulent pain in the ass says:
how are you?
RoSy Nyeh says:
im fine thanx lol
RoSy Nyeh says:
u???
Frankly, Mr. Shankly, since you ask, you are a flatulent pain in the ass says:
yeah im good thanks lololol

[Particle_Man]

What really annoys me? Arrogant people who think their art is better than others.

Not to mention people with knowledge but unwilling to help others starting out on a new profession/art form.

[|Laguna|]

What annoys me is those damn adverts that flash advertisements that pop over web pages and text, and as they don't appear in a seperate window you must then hunt down the X. All the while some irrating sound is playing from that advert.

[ViPeR]

Rufio, we are going to find you a girlfriend. :P

I'm flattered you think that would actually be possible :heh:

[Dieter]

=> 'u'. Yeah, I fucking hate it. It requires near to none of your grammar skills (I think that bit just did mine in), yet people sometimes blatantly refuse to type it out so here's to them:
Copy paste this for future use: you

=> People 'subtly' showing off their iPod by wearing the virgin(because they probably are)-white headphones above dark clothing instead of running it through like normal people.

=> Giving tech support. I get angry at the unknowing, which is probably more of my fault :)

=> Prejudice versus anime, mainly it being 'childish'. I'm considering taking a printout of an Elfen Lied screenshot in my pocket at all times for such occasions.

[Mr. Bananagrabber]

Things I find annoying:
People on the internet that call you a Nintendo fanboy because you prefer Zelda and Mario to Halo and GTA.
Scrubs season 4, why such a drop in quality?
Jack Thompson.

[The3rdChildren]

Niggling annoyances, eh?

I guess for one... when stuff works, but not properly. A good example of this would be a DVD player that turns on okay, but does not read discs. Therefore it works, sure, but it doesn't work properly. An awful lot of stuff at my grocery store job is guilty of this annoyance.

Another niggle is when people borrow my stuff and I get it back in horrible/damaged condition. The ones who totally blame a faceless third party, or make NO mention of what happened are by far the worst.

This thread is excellent. Someone should sticky it, we all get new minor niggles to add to the collection on a daily basis.

Oh, oh. One more. When stuff doesn't arrive in the post when it's meant to.

THERE ARE SO MANY.

I'm trying to think of more here. I think liars online piss me off a lot too. Of all places to tell a lie, why the Internet? The ones who are even more annoying are the ones who take things a step further and freaking lie about diseases, abuse and general taboo items that really ought not to be used as ammunition in a virtual popularity war.

Anime faces have generally started annoying me too lately. Once an avid user, it's a niggling annoyance and desire for the user to die when a male posts the ;_; face. Jesus. Typing that myself makes whatever little shred of manliness I ever rarely exhibit burst into pink flames.

What else? An awful lot of stuff annoys me.

Random IMs on MSN from IRL friends are very annoying, especially since the post that initiates the conversation has no purpose at all. I'll receive an emoticon, weird word or some kind of jibberish I can only describe as leet's retarded little chav brother.

Overly emotional/irritable girls annoy the hell out of me.

Here's a good one. Little kids on Halo 2 are capable of elicting anger in me that is very rarely elicted. An eliction so great that several witches would probably have to gather around a boiling pot of evil and chant for hours to merely rouse the kind of angry eliction I speak of. Anyone who has played with us, or hey... anyone who has EVER played an online game with a kid will know just how irritating some of these offenders are. Burn them.

Sonic fan characters annoy me to no end, and people who piss on the toilet seat are also unbearable. Hm, more quick niggles... Anime fans who shit on the series that got them into the genre once they move onto perhaps arguably "better" shows. Classic examples of said shitting are DragonBall Z and Pokémon.

Anime fans who shit on American cartoons need to sit down too. Wow, this has gone from minor niggles to full-blown annoyances.

[Bowser57]

This thread is excellent. Someone should sticky it, we all get new minor niggles to add to the collection on a daily basis.


Before the Excellent/Non-Excellent threads were killed they could have gone in the Non-Excellent one.

Not that I hold grudges or anything!

(To be honest I can't even remember the name of the rip-off merchant that managed to destroy them).

I think his name was Iceman. Or as those in his circle know him... Colin. Just so we're clear on the Non-Excellent thread, I was thinking of how great it would be to be writing in that instead the whole time I was creating the above.

[jakeee]

I don't like understand people who say that Linux is hard to use. I don't know what distro have they used (if any) but my Debian couldn't be more easier to use. One says that you always have to use the command line. I don't get it... I only use the command line if I want to install something (which ISN'T difficult if you ask me) or manage some files (it could be done without the command line but it's much quicker if you just type in the commands :E).
One of my friend's father says that you have to do a lot before you can actually use Linux and then he claims that after he installs Windows XP it's ready to use and you don't have to install anything and he isn't interrupted by any Windows updates. Bullshit if you ask me. I wouldn't surf on the net even for a second if there is no proper firewall, a virus scanner, an anti-spyware program and the most important thing: a proper browser! And I'd also like to have Winamp, Azureus, MSN messenger, mIRC and some other pretty useful things. If I have just installed a Debian I usually install: Firefox, XMMS (kinda like Winamp), MPlayer (I could use totem but I think MPlayer is a bit better), aMSN, Azureus, irssi and maybe some other things.
Let's see...
Windows: 8 things to install
Debian: 6 things to install
Oh no... The guy said that you don't have to install anything but in fact I'd have to install even more things than I install on Debian :shock:

I guess that's it. Feel free to argue :smile:

[Pancake]

Mothers who make zero effort to shut their screaming child up just because they are used to it.

A problem page letter in the newspaper the other day from a mother who basically said "My son is a jobless loser will no ambition. He's 20 years old and is still living in my house preventing me from doing the things i want to do."
She just struck me as a really vile mother. So she's not proud of her own son unless he has a good job? She felt like she'd done her bit and just wanted him out of the way.

Customers who come into the shop i work in and say "What are you saying today then?" and things like that. Honestly, i have no idea how i'm supposed to answer that. I always just try to smile and say "Oh, i'm fine". And they look at you like you're the most boring person on the planet.

People who say "cheer up, it might never happen". So i'm supposed to walk around with a big stupid smile on just to please you? It's even more annoying if people say it when you're in a good mood. Just because you're not smiling doesn't mean you're not happy.

[Blackfox]

(To be honest I can't even remember the name of the rip-off merchant that managed to destroy them).

He was called Marshmellow_7.

WOW!!! Yeah....that's a BIG annoyance for me too!! It's usually girls going out with dickhead guys too. But the most annoying thing about it is that they go and do it AGAIN and AGAIN!!!

They're always like "He's so great" etc etc.....and you're like: "Isn't that what you said about the last one?"

I also hate bad parents, especially when they then go and blame things on TV or VIDEOGAMES!! Excuse me!?...Aren't you the one supposed to be controlling what he watches/plays?!

[rizz]

When my mum walks in my room, tells me to turn my music down, then leaves the door open when she leaves. If she closed the door she wouldnt hear it anyway. I mean, could she hear it before she came in? No.

[Shorty]

Am I the only one who sees a little problem with that? ;)

That's just being picky :p - it's one thing to leave the apostrophe out of a little 'word' like "c'mon" posted lazily in a thread - but to have a misplaced one in a name that floats above your head on an MMORPG for everyone to see is just annoying to me!

[JonSt]

One gripe I have is when playing football and people try to employ offsides without any linesman. I mean the other team is clearly going to moan that everything is offside, should just leave it.

[Raining_again]

Heres another:

when your slaving your guts out in a job and your boss comes over and does nothin but critisize, when your working yourself to a flipping mental breakdown with no praise!

and when you work in a shop and have to take breaks and lunches on your own :(

I have to agree with The3rdChildren's pet peeve about things which don't completely work. So many times I find myself living with a minor hassle because, in the short run, it's not worth the hassle to get it sorted out.

Thing is, this totally stretches to cover my own health. If there's an issue I should see a doctor about I pretty much always just wait and see if it goes away.

Heres another:

and when you work in a shop and have to take breaks and lunches on your own :(

I actually prefer taking breaks alone cos i'm so anti-social! Also, you don't have to be self-conscious about people being around when you eat. Sometimes when it's quiet and everyone is reading or something you feel like the whole world can hear you eating crisps.

People who talk about you after you pass them in the hallway or a bit before you pass them.

"He loks like he's from the Matrix"
"man, he needs a haircut"
"look at this loser"
"rrrrrobotics!"
"what a freak"
"he just walked between us! OMG!!!1!11"
"I think you should ask him out" "OMG EW!"

Fuckers. (I wear sunglasses and a shopcoat with "smalldude" across the back to school and to public areas like the cinema)

It's actually quite interesting to see people's odd looks because I'm dressed differently than them. However I got most of those comments before the shopcoat+glasses combo... If you're wondering I had no other coat and the glasses were to cover my red eyes and it grew on me :).


What else...

people that conform to others' beliefs to fit in. They buy stuff and wear stuff because they think it'll make them kool. Then there's the people who do something different for the sake of being unique. I don't mean people who try something new, but people who start stuff that they think is unique like a blog and ripped clothing. Ugh... Be your own person, damned people.

The fact that the main page of this site takes the piss loading, and you can't even click the forum link as it isn't clickable at that point.

I'm considering taking a printout of an Elfen Lied screenshot in my pocket at all times for such occasions.

Yeah you'll be the coolest in your class.

People who use caps lock too much (especially on MSN)

Indeed, my local station plays the same songs like every half an hour. Plus they belive their "thats give away £80 in a competion" is ground breaking.

Yup, at 6th form when i'm walking through the high school I often get 'mosher!' from the younger little scallies. Bah to them.
