I'm notorious for accidently offending people and getting into fights when i am out.

Remind me not to go out when you're around. :lol: Though I think I'm barred from entering your county anyway on account of being northern and untidy.

when people sit next to you even though there's plenty of other seats.

I hate that.  Whether it's busses, trains, coffee shops or whatever: y'know, respect my personal space.  Actually that's probably a bad phrase to use since my personal space is about 300 miles across, but some people seem to be intent on actually occupying the same physical space as I am.

See also: people who stand far too close when they're talking to you.  And as you back away they keep approaching so that their nose is no more than 3" from yours.  Eek.


When I was a kid my Father had a friend who was a "close talker"...
I was with my Dad at a Department Store one time and he saw this friend and the guy came up to say "Hello"... half an hour later we were halfway across the floor...my Father kept backing up a step at a time and the guy JUST KEPT COMING! Image IPB

Incomplete sentences bother me more than they probably should.:P


I'd like to point out that my answer was, in fact, neither an incomplete sentence nor grammatically incorrect: The predicate was omitted by ellipsis. Depending on which grammarian you ask, there are various terms for that type of sentence. I, being an adherent of the OED, am inclined towards "minor sentence".


I find people who take things extremely seriously very annoying.

 lets see...

Video games/movies/etc that release a "special edition" without there ever being a regular edition to begin with.



I could think of more, but I'll spare you the rants!

Another thing is the un-capitalized letter "i" being in front of Nouns. Such as "iTunes", "iPod". What annoys me beyond belief, however, is when people and companies other than apple do it.

Any noise when I'm trying to sleep. I mean ANYTHING whatsoever. If I here a note of music of a thud or anything I get really mad and I don't know why. But it's only if it's sumthing I can stop. Like music I get mad at cause I could go turn it off but if a car horn beeps outside i don't care cause I can't control that. It's weird...

To be fair, anyone who unnecessarily uses their car horn, especially to say "goodbye" in case the people who they said goodbye to three seconds ago had forgotten they were going, those people really need to be disembowelled whilst being forced to listen to Barry Manilow and then buried in peat for three years.

* People not giving a damn about body hygiene, they make me want to puree their heads with my hands if they get near me. Is it really so hard to remove the smelly residue of body fluids on your skin once in a while?

* People eating with open mouth / talking while eating and making loud eating noises like horses tick me off, I'm unable to eat anything, it makes me sick and aggressive. I hate eating with most other people.

* Soccer moms trying to drive SUV's blocking the traffic, pure horror. Worst thing is, you're not allowed to shoot them.

That reminds me: at a place I worked at in London, there was one conspicuous group of people who never washed their hands after going to the toilet: the same group of people who spent all day shaking hands with others, the salesdroids.  Whilst everyone else was fairly fastidious, the sales people would go straight from the cubicle to the exit without making the usual detour via the handwashing area.  Ew.

Yuck now i don't want to shake hands ever. I'm now dreading my next outside meeting since i don't know who the washers and who the walkers are in other buildings.

Even worse is people who you know don't wash their hands buying you drinks and putting their hands allover the glass. I've a mate who in the 5 years I've known him I have never once witnessed him wash his hands after using the toilet yet still he insists on getting the drinks. I hate touching anything after him.

I actually like Barry Manilow, so wwe could make them listen to Avril Lavigne.

Justin Bieber might work better as cruel and unusual punishment.

Repetitive banter or battle cries in videogames tend to bother me way more than they really should, especially when they make no sense.

For example, in Mass Effect when your squad members are down and you're single handedly fighting an entire squad of mercenaries, and you have to hear some idiot screaming "ENEMIES EVERYWHERE!  ENEMIES EVERYWHERE!  ENEMIES EVERYWHERE!" over and over again.  No, you moron, it's just me here.

Or, to give another example, in Assassin's Creed when random people will ask "have you been drinking?" as you climb buildings.  Yes, that's it.  You've got it.  I've been drinking.  I mean, who among us hasn't occasionally had a bit too much to drink and gone climbing buildings and jumping around rooftops?

The random people making comments in AC are so annoying. I get they were going for realism but it gets really old really fast when anytime you climb a ladder people make the same comment they made the last 10 times.

Another one that bugs me is when conversations repeat over and over again, That damn Volus on Illium in ME2 drives me mad "I own the room...I own"   "SHUT UP!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP SAYING THAT!"

I hear that damn volus in my sleep it haunts me.

I've only just started Assassin's Creed a couple of days ago but I have noticed that townspeople will comment if you so much as run.

Talking about video games in general, when on television shows and such and people are playing video games, they just press every button available rapidly, and it really bothers me because that is not how you play a game.

Not getting proper manuals with my CRPGs....

Print that requires an electron microscope to read....

Small print read over the radio....

Getting the incorrect order at fast food lines, esp when you were the only customer. *Note - one day I may collect and return all the uneaten pickles I never ordered*

Getting both ME games last year, and not being able to figure out how to move around in the game....

Becoming ill every time I have a Staycation....

Delivery fees on top of food orders, then being advised to tip.....

Robot calls to my phone that will not stop if I actually pick it up to speak....

Having a video collection, but nothing looks interesting to rewatch....

Missing any part of a collection of something....

Life.....

That's just a sign that you're getting older. :P

Though actually I have noticed that print is getting smaller, especially on food containers: we've seen this as we have a few "antique" examples of the same due to us being messy, and have found the print is often both larger and in more amenable colours on the older ones.  I can't imagine why the producers would want to make it more difficult to read, though... anybody might think they were trying to be dishonest!
