Oh! Oh! One more Halloween one:

Anything that says "This is my Halloween costume"

You are the anti-funny.

Pet Peeves: Halloween edition!

  • People who don't dress as anything scary. This bugs me irrationally. Halloween is scary! You should be scary! This isn't an anime convention, it's goddamn ghostnight! Gah!

Zzz

I'll just list mine:

Littering

Sagging pants

People who read word-for-word from a Power-Point presentation

People going over the speed limit (15 mph and over) and no cops around

Seeing Facebook updates every minute to five minutes about what you're doing (Honestly, no one cares!)

People talking to me when I have my headphones on listening to music

Those are just a few.

This a thousand times. Especially if they keep doing it after you've already had to take your headphones off, ask them to repeat themselves, think they're done, and put your headphones back on. I just wanna listen to my goddamn music, why are you talking to me?

That one bugs me to no end.

Anyways, commercials that make me NOT want to by something when it's supposed to. Case in point, that one car commercial with the robots and the street hamsters.

My pet peeve: people riding around late at night blasting horrible music and obnoxious levels of bass.

Here's a couple video game pet peeve of mine.

-In FPSs on multiplayer, when I'm just about to kill a guy, another guy shows up behind me and kills me BEFORE I kill the other guy.

-Again in FPSs on multiplayer, unknowingly walking into the middle of like three different guys who see AND shoot me at the same time.

When I'm playing escalation on War for Cybertron/Fall of Cybertron and I pump a full clip into an enemy, just for my teammate to come over and take the kill.

So very common and oftentimes meaningless occurances that define the genre?

You two must be the type of player who rage quits quickly and throw controllers at the wall.

Nah, I avoid rage quitting, and the most I do with my controller is hit it against my leg in major anger.

Mine too.

You're late to the party bro. We talked about this a while back, and even started a topic to petition that all bronies get banned. The mods didn't do anything though.

Shame, that.

EDIT: Wait, you were a part of that topic! You already know everyone agrees with you. What is there to bring?

Little kids who don't know how to shut up on xbox live. You've seen them in those youtube vids. They're rare to come across. But when they do show up, my god someone please take away their headset and smash it.

My major peeve is this: BRONIES. There I said it. Bring it.

This just in: no one gives a shit.

Don't try to start fights where there is no fight to be had. It's a douche move.

Yeah, that whole anti-brony thing is a dead fad. Making fun of bronies is like making fun of the Jonas Bros. or Justin Bieber. Yeah, it's easy and they are/can be annoying, but it's just passé now and they're not as omnipresent as they were a year or two ago.

Boy, some people are feeding the troll.

Pet peeves: Tumblr keeps updating and messing with the menu system but not implementing any useful features without the need of add-ons like Missing E and Tumblr Saviour...that they then whine about being "browser hacks". Just integrate their functions already, other people shouldn't be responsible for making your site work intuitively!

And here I was about to mention anti-bronies as my next pet peeve. Oh well, let's see. Hmm, OH! I got one! Bad movies based on good shows.

No actually. I don't. I've only done that once and I broke my 360 controller. Those things aren't cheap. I usually don't rage quit, I can't remember the last time. I just want revenge on those who kill me. :P

There was a kid in my French class last year who was like that. God, it was annoying. I mean, I can see the reason for it if the person is intentionally ignoring you, but just because they don't respond right away doesn't mean they didn't hear you.

The vast majority of first year film/English majors, for the tendency of namedropping directors/authors whenever they can and for throwing around terms they don't actually understand and bullshitting analyses of the content that contain one of the following "interpretations":

  • Hilariously polar opposite to the actual message of the film
  • Said to be political statements...on events that hadn't actually occurred at the film/book's release
  • Freaking out because a film didn't adhere to the Hero's Journey and therefore it's WRONG!!!
  • Confusing a lack of traditional arc structure for "no arc"
  • Shoehorning their own pet political opinions into something for which they're irrelevant
  • Generally making it abundantly clear that they only watched the film once
  • Using TV Tropes phrases

People with OCD, they ask for your help and then yell at you because you packed something "wrong" even though it was packed perfectly fine. I just want to get the hell out of this place, is that too much to ask?

That can apply to any class where analysis is required. History, English, etc.
