Re: What irritates you?

When people don't take care of their pets and let them wander into the street and forget that there's a leash law. Fuck it!! Then you gotta swerve your car to avoid hitting them- sorry but I really care about animals and it kills me to see people that don't give a damn! Give it to the humane society if you can't take care of it, put a sign in your yard saying dog for sale rather than let it reproduce and make more animals to get killed on the highway because of neglect

    Mine was similar. I've written about it somewhere here I think. From Albany to Charlotte, about a 2.5 hour flight, about 15 mins into the flight an autistic kid starts fucking SCREAMING...like seriously otherworldly screaming that cannot come from a normally constituted human being. He stopped only to breathe. Enough people were driven crazy that the flight attendants asked the mother to do something. A doctor suggested that the mother medicate the child, as she should have been doing, but she was worried the air pressure would cause side effects. Finally the captain threatened to make an emergency landing. After she medicated the kid he calmed down just in time to enjoy the last half hour of the flight.

    Restaurants and theaters are another place.

    Better yet, kids shouldn't even be allowed in public except Chuck E Cheese or Disneyworld, IMHO.

    I would have asked the parents nicely, then the flight attendants, and then I would have had to substitute parent. It would probably get me arrested and make national headlines, at least a paragraph or two, but it would be well worth it.

    defcon, serious question. While I'm a rather negative person, and I'm not judging but just curious, what are some things you enjoy in life? It seems like you always have these terrible situations to deal with or so many things you can't stand.

    No offense taken. I enjoy Mountain Dew, Weed, and Masturbation...and when I don't have weed, as now, I tend to become a miserable person and no one can stand me. People in general piss me the fuck off. I can pretend to be a social person, but in the end, if I had the world to myself, I'd enjoy it. Weed really balances me. I was literally going postal when I discovered it. Now I tend to be a more level person, despite my rantings.

    So, this is annoying the shit out of me. My spacebar on the laptop was sticking, so thinking there was something under it, I pryed it off, following the instructions...the fucking thing will not stay back on now. I have tried all instructions, google, youtube, krazy glue, duct tape...fucking NOTHING works. I even took it to the computer shop yesterday, the tech tried before he got pissed and offered to order and install a new keyboard for me for $50...he said that'd be easier. I'll probably install it myself and save $15-20.

    I nearly threw the fucking thing across the room.

    Another thing:

    Passive aggressive people. It's really a sign of immaturity to see someone in their 20s act like a kid and fail to discuss things like an adult, even when confronted.

    So essentially, you're someone it's impossible not to irritate.

    I've been meaning to change it for some time now...but being a pacifist is one thing, being neurotic is another. I'm very neurotic, and I'm proud to admit it.

    More often than not. Although it may appear that I'm not a people person, I work in customer service. That has really ruined me as a human being. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. It's like I take a piece of every asshole I deal with with me and it becomes part of me. I used to love the world and everything in it. Now it takes a whole lot of weed for that to happen.

    There was a hairdresser on campus a few years ago, old ass lady of Caribbean decent, who was on a flight from her home country back to the US and mid-flight she 'attacked' a flight attendant. Plane had to be routed to the nearest airport, she was kicked off/detained. They said she was pretty drunk which makes sense. She used to throw oranges at students as they walked by. But in conclusion, it made the papers. Funny stuff. She hasn't been seen on campus since.

    I hear you man. I don't smoke weed, but I love to drink. That's my escape. Working customer service can really piss people off. We have to take the worst of every pissed off person, and we have to take it with a smile. If we don't and that customer complains, we could lose our job. It's a no win situation. There's some people out there that don't realize people who work customer service are people, and should be treated as such. If they had to work one month in their shoes, their attitude would change. A lot pisses me off to, but I hold it in. People on cell phones, screaming kids, entitled people etc..... I'll end my rant now.

    Re: What irritates you?

    So another thing that irritates me is the fact that I missed out on an awesome opportunity at a job I was working at a couple of weeks ago. It was an accounting position but I didn't take it seriously enough and made a lot of errors in training. It would have been a great company to work for and the office environment there was just perfect. I also made a new, um, friend there and he said I would have been in a cube very close to him if I had stayed which is very frustrating to know. Now I'm stuck in this other job, wishing I could go back in time and not make so many mistakes. fml.

    I can not stand that one second transition in the shower when you first initialize the water from the bath tub to the shower head. COLD! If we had are clever enough to have a man walk on the moon surely there is someone smart enough out there to keep the water temperature hot throughout this process.

    When you go to ask a TA or a teacher for help on an assignment and they start interrogating you about the material. Hey asshole if I knew how the fuck to do the work I wouldn't have come to you for help.
