Pet Peeves


Gestalt

Recommended Posts

I don't know if it's been mentioned in this topic yet

 

But Pokemon hipsters who claim anything past X generation is shit.

 

Especially those fucksticks who flame the new gens for having sentient garbage, gears and lamps, but then turn around and defend sentient sewer sludge, Pokeballs, and magnets as the pinnacle of creature design.

 

Fuck you all.

I see what you did there.

 

I am pretty much against some of the newer generation designs (mostly the ice cream cone one), but not all. I'm willing to give them passes because there can be a possible scientific explanation to their existent (i.e. Grimer, Muk, Trubbish and Garbodor evolved from pollution, magnemite and its evolutions came from scientific experiments, etc.). 

 

TV shows that go on for so long that they start ignoring their own continuities and logics. This comes from mostly anime, particularly Bleach and Naruto.

I SERIOUSLY can't stand it whenever people driving down the road don't put on their turning signals - URGH, it irritates the HELL out of me!  It happens way too often on my way to my college classes and my way home.  I mean, would it not hurt to just flip that little handle down to let others know where you're going rather than just not even touching the damn thing and turning regardless?  Not only that, but people that turn the signal on AT THE LAST DAMN SECOND!!  Jee, thanks, buddy, for letting me know right before I rear-end you!

 

I probably have already stated this, but it's whenever I'm listening to music with my headphones on and someone is just yacking away at me, KNOWING I can't hear them.  If someone has their headphones on, don't you think that means they can't hear you or don't want to listen to you?  I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

This.  A thousand times this.

People who judge others just because they THINK that games like Pokemon or anime like Fairy Tail are just for kids -_-

 

Dogs who bark at me every morning for almost a year now. Seriously, do I look that bad to be a thief to you?

This but also applied to anything where crazy nostalgia purists write off anything that isn't an identical clone to the first game/album/season/whatever. LET IT GOOOO

Pet peeve:

 

Biting wool.

 

I'm in the middle of getting ready for work, and I was holding my sweater between my teeth since I was trying to put socks on (in a slight rush due to the clocks changing last night). I kind of squinted my jaw and the wool was like... "aaaak". Shiver shiver.

 

>Late for work

>Still have time for SFO

>My manager must hate me

Like a white hot needle from my molars, up into my ear canal, and all down along my spine.

I dunno Jinx is kind of a diva too.

 

Oh, on the topic of Pokemon still, an entire pet peeve could be devoted to fucking ZUBAT, GEODUDE, AND TENTACOOL.

Here's a pet fucking peeve from today.

 

People who think you know the answer to the universe because you're wearing a uniform.

 

This morning in work a cleaner who I had never seen before decided to spend a whole 8 minutes asking me why her coworker hadn't showed up, how she is supposed to clean the toilets when her coworker was meant to do it and what is she supposed to do when she was only told to clean the restaurant floor. I'm standing there, wasting precious time because I was the only one in for that hour and I had to cook everything. Then I was like "Have you asked the manager?" She responded "What one is that?" Jesus fuck.

I know that feeling. I work retail, and people expect you to know EVERYTHING. Sorry, I don't know if we carry this item or where it is. I go to other stores and get asked if I work there.

 

NO.

 

What's even worse is I'll be off the clock and 'in disguise' and people STILL ask you questions. GO find someone ELSE to bother!

Let me tell you about a peeve we all hate.

 

Speedos.

I'm relaxing in a hottub over at a club I joined so I could lose a couple pounds. when literally two 80 year old dudes come strutting in and letting everything hang loose. I'll tell ya, the skipper swimming class are just on the brink of insanity.

People who sing along with their music while listening to it through their headphones. It's bad enough we had to deal with your crappy music without your headphones, but it's far worse when you sing it horribly.

Thank god I don't have to deal with that.

 

How about idiots who don't use turnsignals while turning or changing lanes?

​I think they're called accidents. :troll:

A personal pet peeve.....being called "Sir" or "Mister". To me, I understand it is a sign of respect, yet I don't feel I am old enough for the title, nor have I done anything worth wild in my life to deserve the title.

When people are afraid of a game being difficult. Apparently the AI for the Uncharted games were much better, but play testers said the game was too hard so they beat the AI upside the head with pipes until they wasn't smart no more.

As of a few weeks ago, cockatiel chirps irk me for some reason. Maybe because it's every single morning.

'tsa innocent bird and all, but the chirp could be a bit less noisy and annoying.

 

Also updates that break games (I'm looking at you, Garry), and update hipsters that say the game was better before X update and the new one ruined it when it actually added useful easier-to-use stuff.

Tumblr Thing of the Week That I Hate: people who don't apparently know what a fucking phobia is. Just because you're creeped out by spiders doesn't mean you have a phobia. If you're obsessing over vacuum-sealing your house to prevent the possibility of spiders and have to check your bed three times before you turn off the lights to make sure there aren't any spiders in it and puke at the very thought of a spider existing, then you can start throwing around the word "phobia", but if that's not the case, stop fucking appropriating a term designated for those who are so afraid of something that it is actively interfering with their every-day life.

 

Tumblr Thing of the Week That I Hate Runner-Up: People who hijack every post to make it about their fandom. No, that is not necessary and you are annoying go away

The feeling of construction paper. I just can't stand how they feel whenever I pick up a sheet.

This some how manages to apply to a few different sounds, each one as annoying as the last, if not more so.
