sensationalist news broadcasting.

the latest iteration due to the earthquake in japan. their fear-mongering regarding tsunamis on the western US coast is ignorant at best.

The fear-mongering regarding the two particular nuclear plants has been especially annoying. If you actually read up on any of the details you would see that even though the radiation levels are above normal, there's no imminent danger as long as they can keep the reactors cool.

If I'm wrong about this please correct me but as of a few days ago I had read several articles that explained how Japan is NOT about to blow up and cause a Chernobyl-type event :P

People who stand too close behind you in a queue, this really annoys me, I feel violent when people dont respect your personal space...a few days ago some old guy was right behind me, as the queue moved forward he kept on bumping up against me.:X
Although I kept turning around and throwing him obvious evils, the idiot didnt flinch 8) ...I didnt want to make a scene as there was like one other woman in the queue and I didnt want t o appear Hysterically angry(which I was feeling at this point)he kept moving too fucking close for comfort every time the queue moved, luckily I carry a heavy handbag the size of The Starship Enterprise and swung it around my shoulder and whacked him with it. He stood back.

THIS!

I can't fucking stand it when this happens to me, so i share your pain with it. It definitely is a blood boiler for me!
 
This is pretty minor but sometimes I only have one clean towel hanging so I use it for my body after the shower. Then, when I go to find my clothes my dumb hair which is also freaking cold and hanging in my face is dripping all over my dresser/clothes. I know there are simple ways to remedy this but I'd rather just complain about it here. Haha.
 
I hate when it just finishes raining for 9 hours straight, and as I'm walking up to my office, the sprinklers are on.
(I'm not saying I never take a long, hot shower.. but come on).
 
I abolustely HATE HATE it when anyone unwrapped food that is in plastic wrap, and then either doesn't rewrap it or does a complete, half-assed job. Or if they leave a mess, or leave something opened, etc etc. things like that enrage me.
 
When people who clearly don't need the handicapped powered door push the button anyway... not because they think it's funny (which is lame and dumb in itself) but because they're purely lazy. As if they do it every time. WTF? You're capable of opening the door yourself, do it. Ugh.
 
^That goes hand in hand with able bodied people abandoning their cars in the disabled parking spaces.
 
I've actually said something to a person before after watching them pull right into a handicapped spot. I was having a bad day so I was kind of a bitch about it but it went like this:

"Why are you parking there? You seem able-bodied and I don't know if you noticed but an older woman just passed us looking for a spot and she's having to park all the way at the other side of the lot (she drove by just as this person was pulling into that spot AND she had the handicap license plate)."

They said something about being in a hurry and ran inside the store. They ended up checking out at the same time I was (a good 30 minutes later).

Assholes :\
 
Slow, uncooperative, or malfunctioning software can turn me into the hulk. The expense of purchasing a new device is the only thing keeping me from smashing my phone or computer to pieces. >:(
 
Here's one that annoys the absolute hell out of me:

When people call a father a "baby daddy." That's not even grammatically correct... It should be "baby's father." Is pronouncing/typing an "s" that hard to do? I mean seriously :X

OK. i don't think i'm getting this - why on earth would this annoy you? it's not like they're denying the use of the door to disabled people, is it?

not being a dick, just don't get it.
 
Because I think it's pathetic. If I see someone at the supermarket using the electric wheelchair/carts whatever and easily get out of the seat and walk to their cars without any problems it annoys me as well. Yes, even if there's a plethora of other wheelchairs available. It's the same principle. It does waste energy as well.

I always wondered about that, I thought it was something to do with the age group as in the daddy must be 16 or the mother 16 or something, but I have taken a liking recently for the maury show and it is said by people of all ages, that and how the hell would someone not know who the father is. That actually pisses me off.
How on earth can someone not actually know, also how many people these folk seem to have unprotected sex with in one week??? WTF ok someone having an affair can say its him or him but pulling up 17 people you what???

Just realised I must be getting old lol

i think i would have to see this happening in real life in order to appreciate the enormity of the situation. ;)

i'm not convinced that an able-bodied person using a wheelchair could possibly be in the same league of evilness as someone simply pressing a button, but hey, nobody comes into this thread looking for advice or perspective lol. :D
 
People who leave less than a serving of a food item in the container. Granted sometimes my serving sizes are a bit larger that most people's, but come on, you left how much? Grrr. Lol.
 
^ Oh shit! How could you let that bother you or anything? /felix 8(

I just posted something that randomly borthered me walking home from school. That's all. Stop making it out to be a deal. Isn't that what this thread is for?

:D :D <-- That makes everything un-sassy and happy, right?
