Things that make your blood boil (or at least simmer)

1. People who don't/can't read signs. I stopped counting how many people asked me "where's the water fountain?" in Canada when the sign above the water fountain was about 3 feet away and in clear sight.

2. People who don't/won't learn about the world

3. People who believe that a certain country is "the best." There's no such thing as a "best" country, only "different."

4. Bad sales assistants.

5. Bad wait-staff.

6. Beginner skiers/snowboarders on intermediate/expert runs.

7. My Dad's older sister, she's so boring and pedantic about all the tiny little details. It drives me insane!!!

8. Airheads, idiots, fanboys, anyone on "Big Brother."

9. Shows like Oprah and Dr Phil who try and get people to go on and on about their feelings instead of slapping them upside the head and saying "suck it up princess, get on with it."

10. Emo

11. Guys who drive doof-doof mobiles who in their nightly quest to cruise for chicks spend hours in close quarters with 4 other guys.

12. Metrosexuals.

13. Religious fanatics, fundamentalists and anyone who believes that their book of sacred texts are to be taken completely literally.

14. Homophobes, racists, bigots, bad drivers, people who smell like they've forgotten to wipe their a*se but don't seem to realise, rednecks, deros, westies, chavs and fooly sik bros.

15. Man, this could take months, I'm going to stop now.

16. OOH, leet speak, aim speak, anything that involves typing "ne1" instead of "anyone" and "l8r" instead of "later."

People that resurect old threads after complaining about them ;)

And in fairness, as I looked at some of the older posts, I seem to:
- annoy people (I'll stick to 10 over in known speed trap areas and won't get over as long as I am passing people)

- get annoyed with posters (I get really annoyed with people that hate people who hate an entire group, but hate another group)

- hate more than others (most hate indoor smoker or those who block access areas - I hate smokers in general, especially those who smoke in front of me while I'm walking down the street....i think all smokers should be denied cancer treatment. give it to those who didn't earn it)

- and hate other people - like the lady yesterday who was at the cross street while i was waiting for the light. she didn't turn left when she had a ton of time and other people were waiting. the reason? cell phone.

- oh! i hate people that don't understand what i'm talking about when i am talking about simple things.

that's it for now

oh - i also hate people that don't know how to drive properly, people with too much bass in their vehicles, people who smoke in their apartment - drifting smoke into my apartment, people who believe they are entitled to government money and don't bother getting a job, people that believe that warning partners about aids is wrong because 'we have to protect the aids people' - even though those partners are at risk, people that hate religion (can a person choose to believe or not believe in god? or is it something more internal?), people that disagree with me, people that makes things more difficult for me, people that don't have the courtesy to call me back (especially when we have an established business relationship), people who make the same stupid joke, people that don't take interaction responsibility at work (an assistant should know if their boss is busy or not, and how hard is it to give someone a stupid one page form to fill out?), people that take their lawyer/accountant/dr/service professional for granted. i'm sure there are more.

EDIT: I do grant exemptions for people in some of these groups (so ignore the below comment :D)

Don't worry. The chances of two MacRumors members running into each other in person is very slim. ;)
 
Okay. Here's my list.

-Hicks that tell the bus driver to turn up the radio really loud and then I can't hear my iPod
-Siblings
-Mean people
-People who are annoying on purpose
-Being hurt
-Being sick
-Windows computers
-Fakers

There's a whole bunch more. I may post later.
 
Stupid people.

People who live in their own little bubble.

The news talking about michael jackson for months on end and completely ignoring the genocide in sudan.

Govt. officials that are concerned more about approval ratings than doing their patriotic duties. So basically: all govt. officials.

Liberals (okay, let me make myself clear: Liberals who don't make sense. The high holy hollywood liberals I have ever talked to have know idea what they are talking about and don't have any facts/ figures/ logic/ to back it up. If they actually did research and *learned* before opening their big mouths [and I'm sure there are plenty that do, so don't get your panties in a bundle] then they wouldn't get my blood boiling)

"christians" who give my religion a bad name by being judgmental, and/or misinterpret the bible to fit their own agenda. (lol, thats hypocritical of me, talking about judgmental people on a thread like this!)

People that dis christianity based on people mentioned above and/or false beliefs/ teachings of a high school english teacher/ etc. interested?


Skinheads. Seriously people, the concept of an inferior race is stupid.

I could go on, but I wont. ;)

There is nothing in this world that I dislike. Or at least, there is nothing that I dislike that I dislike.

Since our awareness is outside our physical body, I can watch myself be mad about something, and be okay with it. It's all thoughts.

Each and every one of you loves everything, even if you haven't realised it yet. An unquestioned mind is the path of suffering. Question your thoughts and you will free yourself of unneccesary stress. The human nature is Love. Pure love. I love everybody on earth. If you don't love everything and everyone, you're simply confused. Thoughts are getting in the way of the truth.
 
The TV listings from Thursday onwards...

Big Brother
Big Brother Live
Big Brother's Little Brother
Big Brother's Big Mouth

...there may even be more... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

It hasn't even started yet but I'm longing for it to end. I can't bear so-called reality TV. This must be the biggest load of codshit ever conceived and they insist on showing it every bloody year, all hours of the day :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Someone please tell me when it's over so I can reconnect my tv aerial :rolleyes:

I don't know. There seems to be a lot ppl from the DC area (and other urban places both foreign & domestic). Maybe we, "run into each other" all the time and just don't recognize one another.

Hmmmm...is that good thing or bad thing?

i saw "mischief" before i even joined macrumors, and "vniow" lives nearby one city over from mischief

but look at all the people on this forum through the years from london...it must number in the hundreds

and with a very good tube (subway and/or L) system, they can meet, in most cases, in less than an hour

but randomly running into somebody, striking up a conversation, and then finding out you are both regulars at macrumors, seems pretty remote

And sometime you do recognize the other person. The best is when you recognize each other and you get lucky ;) :D
 
here's a real winner:

people who use the snooze button repeatedly on loud alarm clocks when their bed mate is trying to sleep. (a light sleeper with insomnia) :mad:

Are you kidding? It takes weeks to organise everyone.
It's like herding cats.

Liars... Liars are so annoying. And, people who exaggerate stuff drive me nuts :mad: And, gossipers make my blood BOIL!

I couldn't agree more. Speaking of liars, this guy I work with is seeing something like 13 women at the same time, and hasn't even told his wife about it, even though I've heard she's pretty good in the sack, if you know what I mean. How can he keep lying to her about this?

Whoa. How can he keep all 13 of them from the truth? Ridiculous..

Italians hate Yugoslavs. South Africans hate the Dutch and I don't like anybody very much!"
