I also hate when people brag to me about what a great singer/artist/actor they are when they really suck and won't take any constructive criticism I give them. Fucking A, this. I can't STAND it when people post their shit up online, or show it IRL and practically beg for attention, only to go absolutely batshit if you so much as criticize it. On the other side, I'm a theatre major and I really hate it when someone who has never acted in their life, not once, ever, not even in high school, who has never taken any drama classes, or even touched a Shakespeare play, and who's idea of good acting is James Cameron's AVATAR, tries to tell me how to do it. That's really fucking annoying. Or when someone tries to tell me about theatre. But not anything really useful or interesting that I don't know, nope. They try to tell me shit that I learned in 7th grade. Like they tell me what stage right and left is, or what an extra does, or who wrote Romeo and Juliet. Do those fuckwads think I haven't been paying attention in any of my classes for the last 9 years?

Do those fuckwads think I haven't been paying attention in any of my classes for the last 9 years? I can kinda see that, especially if they start trying to throw technical shit around, that's kind of like bitching about gravity to a physicist or something. At the same time though, to a point, that's like saying unless you're a musician you can't criticize music, or if you're not a filmmaker you shouldn't be commenting on movies. It's all to degrees, though. And that specific situation does sound really stupid. Related to that, when someone can't admit that they're wrong/full of shit. I got into a flat-out argument with someone once because she INSISTED that Pink Floyd wrote "School's Out". It's just so stupid, and common knowledge, that it just pissed me the hell off. I hate when people insist they're right on something you know.

This is a really dumb one, but I've noticed this weird trend at my school lately. In class, someone will say the answer to a question, and if it's wrong, they quickly respond, "Just kidding." It just bugs the crap out of me. Seriously, you're not being funny, and you aren't fooling anyone. You aren't going to be forever banned from going to college or sent to jail for getting a little answer incorrect. I know it's petty of me to get worked up about, but it's just... URRRGH.

^ That's just catching on where you are? You're lucky, I dealt with that through what would've been middle school and most of highschool. Worst part is my girlfriend still fucking does it from time to time. Only around here it was usually "PSYCH" yelled right after. Everyone once in a while, you'd get some annoying hipster kid going "Oh, JK, JK!"

The abuse of the word "precious". I swear, everything is precious these days. "Aww, you look precious in that dress!" "They make such a precious couple!" "Those nuns are so precious!" "Ooh, that badass tattoo of yours is precious!"
You know what else is precious? The idea that I would never have to hear the word "precious" again, unless something is actually precious.

Writers who don't even bother during the most cursory research into weapons, the military, and the damage weapons do to the human body and then make lame excuses.
Another thing that makes me start to burn a slow fuse...
When I'm taking one of my booster pills because I'm overriding my medication, or it's just that time of day, and they want to give me advice about how this root or that plant or that pile of catshit will cure me instead of OH NOES BIG FARMA! pills.
That medication they're busy criticizing?
It's the ONLY thing keeping me from killing them where they stand and laughing while I do it, or from targeting them, hunting them, and killing them.

Couples tickling in public. I'm not as bothered by PDA as most people I know, but shit, that's just disgusting.

The word "pussy." It's just gross.Why? it used to mean a cat. Personally, I would rather my vag be referred to something like a cat than some of the other slang names out there. I could think of a lot worse.

I really, really hate it when you get into an argument with someone and they make the same point over and over and it's clear they have no idea about what they're talking about. AKA the argument I'm having with someone over youtube. Dude, you clearly don't have a fucking clue about our political system if you're bringing out comments like that, you're getting it confused with someone else

My jaw aches, I blew through my meds, and I'm in a pissy mood, so here's some of my pet peeves when I'm feeling kind of grouchy and not fully medicated... Breathing on me in line. DON'T stand behind me, panting through your mouth like you just got done running the Boston Marathon, close enough that I can feel the humidity from your breath. It makes me want to stab you under the belly button and twist it around a couple times so you STOP FUCKING BREATHING ON ME! Ramming your shopping cart into the back of my heels. Once, OK, twice, I'm starting to get irritated. Three times? I'm yelling at you right in the store and ruining your day. And why yes, Mr. Barbed Wire Tattoo Boyfriend, I'd be happy to go out to the parking lot with you and discuss this in further detail. Whining when you get hurt. Hey, here's a plan! Don't lay your fucking dickbeaters on me and I won't hurt you. Don't think just because I wear glasses I'm some harmless geek for you kick around for your own amusement or to impress your buddies. I like it when you scream, and when you touch me, it gives me the excuse to hear you scream and cry. Nobody cares that your bullying ass got hurt for being a macho dickhead who thinks they can touch other people without getting touched back. Crybaby. Staring at my daughter's breasts. Yes, I realize she has DD's and is a weight-lifter/runner, and yes, she is over the age of 18. But if you keep staring at them, I'm going to reach out and pop your fucking eye out with my thumb. Have some goddamn respect. Daughter's Annoying Boyfriends. Jesus on a stupidity powered go-kart, what the FUCK is up with my daughter's boyfriends? Am I that intimidating? Why do they all look down and mumble instead of looking me in the eye like a fucking man? If my daughter likes you enough to date you I'm not going to murder you, I'm trying to get to know you so I can figure out whether or not I approve. That way I know if I have to murder you. Doctors that don't listen. Hey, Doc, see that medical alert bracelet? READ IT! Those two medications? I will tear up the ER. I will fight with your security guards. I will get off on being TASER'd. I will go on a total rampage. It's happened before when I was given either of those two drugs. Oh, and when I tell you I have a high pain tolerance, that's why the BONE STICKING OUT MY ARM is only a 4 on the pain scale, don't roll your eyes. Oh, and READ MY GODDAMN MEDICAL FILE! Someone with chunks of steel embedded in them should NOT get an MRI. STOP MAKING AN APPOINTMENT FOR ONE! There's plenty more, but I'm in a REALLY pissy mood, so lets just drop it here.

-Protestants who feel the need to "educate" me on my faith if I mention going to Mass.
"What are you doing tonight, Dana?"
"I'm going to Mass."
"OMGCATHOLICSRDADEBIL!"
-PETA. I like KFC, thank you very much.
-People who laugh at the fact that I have old school Disney songs on my mp3 player. Nostalgia is good for the soul, damnit.
-New school Disney.
-People who chew with their mouth open.
-People who chew ice.
-The misuse of your/you're, who's/whose, and there/their/they're.

Same here, Yog. I knew a guy in college that looked like he would puke any time he heard it though so, naturally, we harassed the fuck out of him with it.

-People keep referring to the US president as "black". Is "biracial" or "multiracial" too many syllables? I'm aware that it's an issue, but "black" is NOT a catch-all.
-Complaining about something as if your complaints are valid, then immediately turning around on someone else when they complain about something, and telling them to "just deal with it". At the same time completely downplaying their feelings on a subject.

The race card. The sex card.
WITH THEIR POWERS COMBINED, YOU HAVE MY OFFICIAL RAGE BUTTON. Even race and sex card jokes make me want to punt infants like footballs.
Horrible abominations, these are.

The best part about this is that their love lasts for a year, tops. 99% of the time, they're just overly-melodramatic teenagers who will break up eventually and then bawww all about it. @sir Chaos: The #1 contributer to my hate of the race card is that, most of the time, it's just some wigger who think's he's gangsta as all hell. The #1 contributer to the sex card is that you're basically making a sexist of yourself, congratulations.

Well, the same could be said that some men don't think that what they are doing IS sexual harassment and get mad at a woman when she says something. Like that guy who texted explicit messages to my friend. Before he did that to her, he tried bugging me, but I shut him down. He also tried bugging another of my friends. he kept asking her to send him a picture of her, but refused to tell her why he wanted one so badly.

I feel like there's a nearly non-existent line that, in the end, falls completely into the land of Personal Opinion. Which is the problem. Legal shit + personal opinion = issues. Well, sending the explicit texts to my friend was without doubt sexual harassment, given that she didn't want it at all. That part he knew. There's no way in hell he didn't know that. He thought she was vulnerable (because her boyfriend is in Chicago) and tried to take advantage of that. That's no matter of opinion. However, with my other friend, she told me the conversation went kind of like this: Him: Hey, send me a picture of you. Her: Why? Him: Just do it. Her: WHY? You already know what I look like. Him: I want a picture. Her: WHY? Him: Just send one. Here, she said she didn't respond for a while because she was having dinner. He bugs her again. Him: What happened? You didn't answer. Her: i was having dinner. Him: So send me a picture now. Her: WHY?? Him: I want a picture. Her: No. You don't need one. She stopped responding, and he bugged her some more with messages she didn't answer. She also didn't give him her number, he took it off a contact sheet during tech for a show. he doesn't ask these women for their numbers, he just takes them and starts bothering them. In this case, knowing him, I'd call that harassment.

I really hate it when you "like" something on facebook and someone feels the need to comment on it and question on it. "lol really?" Yes, Stephen, I do, and I have just as much of a right to do that as you have to "like" "I HATE CELTIC AND CATHOLICS". Fuck off and stop judging me on what I think. Just because I gave you a verbal bitch-slap in our economic policy class, maybe you should stop talking about shit you don't know about. Prat.
