so, what really ticks you off for no particular reason?

mine are mostly pronunciations:
people who pronounce mature like ma-toor
people who pronounce schedule like shed-ual
people named sara who pronounce it the same as sarah (sara should be pronounced with both a's sounding the same)
people who pronounce vase so it doesn't rhyme with ace
the 'word' lol, or omg
superchristians (i've never noticed any other super religious people but i'm sure i'd be anoyed by them, too)

sorry if you fall into any of these catigories, i love you anyway hug

People that moo at over weight people.

People who pick at their feet and dont wash their hands.

Drunks.... I dont mind people drinking and getting drunk ocassionally but I do not like hanging out with someone who is drunk every time I see them.

Slow people in my way when I'm in a hurry.

People who are so self-centered that they don't understand that a doctor running down the hall at full speed is not a good person to try to stop and ask for directions.

People with no desire for self-improvement or self-help.

People who walk slowly.
People who stop for no good reason.
People who stop with good reason but no forwarning.
People who walk paralex to everyone else.
People who like to walk in lines so all the group can talk to each other (primary school rules people! Walk in pairs!).
Cyclists who use the sidewalk, despite the fact that they already have a section of the road dedicated to them.
People who begin DANCING in the middle of a busy street.
People who have no idea which way you're gonna walk by them, despite the fact you're a metre to their right.
People who walk unpredictably.
People who want your time or money (aside from buskers or beggars).

People in hostels who don't seem to get the fact that there are other people in the dorm room who would like to sleep.

People in hostels who think just outside my bedroom is a good place to sit and loudly discuss their ex at 3 in the morning when I have to work tomorrow.

I really need to get a few proper nights' sleep.

People who spell my first name wrong (which isn't an obscure one!)

It's excusable if I speak it and they write it down one way. But when it's written out for them in an Email I've sent them, or a Sametime chat screen (Sametime = a messaging program from IBM/Lotus which I use at work) which displays a persons full name for EVERY chat they send, people still write back my name wrong even when it's right in front of them.

Oh, and people who argue at 2-3 in the morning when you're trying to sleep. tongue

I do know a Brendon though.. it is a name with variant spellings..

Mind you, I also know someone who spells her name 'Hayzel' and even met a 'Hayzell' once.

Yeah, add that to my list- people who give their kids names that sound like common ones but spell 'em weird, 'cos they want to be different but don't quite have the guts to do it properly.

If you don't want your kids to get mixed up with other kids with the same name, call 'em something like Depressed Cupboard Cheesecake, (I didn't make that name up, if you're wondering) don't just stick an extra 'y' in there!

If I speak it and that's what they write down, that's fine smile

But if I'm at work, and every email or Sametime chat has 'Brendan' in it, to get a reply where they say 'Brendon' or 'Brenden' or even 'Brandon'... no, no excuses there ubblol

~Korean drunken kareoke at three in the morning heard from two blacks away.
~People who drive below 70mph on the highway.

I agree whole heartedly, with the exception of the doctor one, cause I've never been in that position.
For me it's when someone in a costume is literally racing to get towards a stage, and people step directly in my way to ask me about where to get a turkey leg. Does it look like I'm after one? Really people.

I'd like to add, when people swerve *to hit* an animal, not avoid it.

oh, kinda off topic, but my ex-girlfriends dad was driving down the road once and had to swerve to avoid a box that was in the road (you know, the ones that people leave baby kittens and stuff in). he pulled over and went back to move it, and there was a little boy inside!!! he hadnt been abandoned, he was just playing or something, but thats horrific that the parents are that lackluster about looking after their child

"Mainliners" Everywhere has them but what we call them. People who think they are better then you, who expect everything for nothing at a retail store and who would spit on you and leave you to die.

Wow and whats the deal with hugh or overweight people on the boards? Are overweight people really that disliked?

It is, however, rather gratifying to leave the board for the better part of a year and find a thread you started on the front page of the chat section. It's nice to know I had an impact of some description.

Hey, that's awesome. Before I scrolled up to see your post I was going to post the same link in response to Gnor's comment. I went and found the page and everything. Way to be on the same wavelength .:highfives:.
