Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2011 9:56 pm Post subject: What are your "Pet Hates"? |
|
|
|
|
There are plenty of things I love in this world. Music, movies, games, sports, people, beliefs, jokes, quotes, and even fashion. But sometimes a personality, game or song comes on the radio that just makes you rage. Hard. These things don't necessarily 'tick you off'. You hate these things so much that you could argue semantics for what seems like hours on why you hate them. You can't, and never will understand how other people can like this sort of stuff, and for as long as you shall live, you will never be converted otherwise. So I decided to make a thread where people can express their incredible distaste amongst all things music, games, people, etc.
I forsee the negs coming thick and fast here as there will obviously vastly varying opinions (if anyone chooses to participate, that is), but please don't let that hold you back. Whilst I love something like, say, wrestling, I'm fairly certain 98% of people here would undoubtedly list this as a pet hate.
Sure, many people here would hate music by say, Katy Perry. But does her music piss you off so much that you can't last another millisecond without changing the channel/station before your brain explodes in extreme displeasure? Then let us all know about it here. List form would be fine, but some things you just hate so much that you can't help but elaborate on them.
Off the top of my head:
*Radiohead/Green Day/Nickelback/Powderfinger
*Karl Pilkington
*Any type of 'periodic movie.' Movies based in past centuries focussing on royalty or something equally as boring. Something like King's Speech or Elizabeth immediately spring to mind. I'm sure technically they're great movies, they just bore me to death.
*Metal Gear Solid (oh no he di'int)
*Scientologists
*That's what she said
*Retina burn from people excessively dressed in fluoro at festivals. Not even true kandy ravers wear this much fluoro
*cooking-based reality TV shows
*US adaptations of british TV shows
*People who refer to all types of electronic music as 'techno'
*Russel Crowe
*The Big Bang Theory/ King of the Hill
*Baseball
I'm sure there's plenty more, but I'll stop there to let any others have a go if they are willing.
So, PALGN, what are your 'pet hates?'
(I guess mods may lock this as it's kind of similar to 'ticks you off', but this was meant to be a post once and once only type of thread, no spam, then read about others.)
Edit: lol, turns out the mods are the ones spamming anyway.

Are you all serious? I think this thread should be renamed the 'take a shot @ Matth3w' thread, as some of these aren't pet peeves. _________________

Don't even think it's going to go that far, it's all spam, jokes and general ticks you off stuff and we have a thread for that, I don't think anyone really gets the idea. Mods lock I suppose, complete thread fail.

Don't be so hard on yourself, it is better to have tried and failed than never to have tried. Just imagine what you could do with your fire breathing fists...

People almost never signal correctly on round-abouts, and I get funny looks when I do it right. _________________

Pet peeve: People who wear frames of glasses but don't actually need glasses.
Hipsters in general really. They make my fists clench and burst into the flames of undying rage. _________________

* Tailgaters and drivers driving dangerously.
* People who expect things to be done instantly when it's not urgent. Take a chill pill and relax.
* Bringing "that's unintelligent"/"that's stupid"/"it's people like you that we don't need in this world"/etc to an argument.
* People who thinks a group of people never understand them and because of that, they think it gives them the rights to give everyone that shares the same beliefs/race/sexuality a hard time.
* People that doesn't do anything to broken things that needs fixing.
* Accidentally bite my tongue hard.
* Professionalism.
That's all I can come up with for now _________________ "Work hard now, play even harder later"

That.
My brother did that very thing where he bought glasses frames and doesn't need them at all. He even went to an optomotrist and got them to put clear non-perscription lenses into them.
Me and my -7.5 perscription are outraged. _________________

I really don't get it. A decade or two ago wearing glasses was some kind of nerd detector, and now people wear it because it's cool (that and they consider themselves nerds and do those stupid peace photos with vintage filters added in wearing frames of glasses).
This makes me nerd rage. I'll take you underground all right..ONCE I DESTROY YOUU. etc. _________________

I believe she means lack thereof. I could be wrong, though, she might just really hate professionalism
