I'd just like to point out the irony in the fact that the day after I post something about being annoyed by only breathing through one nostril, it happens to me...
Which doesn't really connect with what you said about going to anime conventions. You go to cons? You like anime (do you?)? Then you're an anime fan. If you like other stuff, that's cool too.
There's a difference between going to various Conventions and Anime Conventions, for example, is Minecraft's Minecon an Anime Convention? No, it's a get together of Minecraft fans.
I understand that, but you said "anime convention." That made me think you were an anime fan, because I thought that was why you might go to an anime convention. Are you an anime fan? What I mean by that is: do you like anime? That's all I want to know, because I like anime, so I thought we might have something in common.
Here is what Snowy and I get annoyed by. -People go to Anime Conventions. -Find a stall that sells bad swords. -Kids buy them because they think they look cool. -Meh... you should be able to know what this is about.
What annoys me? Just two things: Hypocrites (a lot of people fall into this category) and excessively loud people. That also includes loud chewing. :[
There are two types of people who annoy me: 1. Those who are intolerant of other cultures. 2. The Dutch. /That's the joke. Yeah baby, yeah!
>goes through whole thread > ^[size=+2]THIS. A THOUSAND TIMES THIS.[/size] Everyone--EVERYONE--has negative qualities. If you only focused on those, then, well, that'd be quite a lonely life, wouldn't it? Not to mention I don't get the point of hating on a fictional character (disliking yes, but bashing the character and those who are fans of that character, no)...bet people who act like that wouldn't be so brave if they were talking about a real live person pony/dragon/bunny/griffin/Draconequis/turtletortoise...
*rolls up sleeves* - People who post attention seeking facebook updates like "don't know what to do anymore" or "THANKS A LOT FOR HURTING MY FEELINGS" or something, then refuse to explain when you ask what's up. If you don't want people to know you're upset about something, don't post it, you passive-aggressive cretin. - The phrase "om nom nom". Not sure what it is about it, but I hate it. And there's this guy I hate who I kind of have to keep as a Facebook friend (he's a friend of a close friend and I have to interact with him frequently in real life) who responds to anything even vaguely related to food or eating with that. He calls himself "The Penguin Of Doom". He keeps quoting that Badger Badger Mushroom Snake meme from 2003. He claims to be a comedian and steals most of his "jokes" from Sickipedia. He overuses the word "random". Actually, I just get annoyed by that guy. - Ready meal containers with a lid that won't peel back, so you have to hack at it with a knife and end up with bits of plastic in your food. - ATMs with buttons that don't line up with the numbers on screen, so you don't know if you're going to get £10 or £40. - People Who Make The Effort To Type Like This Despite It Looking Idiotic. - The phrase "PC gone mad", or any variant thereof. It's usually used by swivel-eyed reactionary bigots to illustrate how the only type of person in the world to be discriminated against is the white, middle-class, heterosexual male. The cases they quote as "evidence" of this are almost always made up by some god-awful tabloid. - Jamie Oliver's continued existence. His job currently seems to consist of Sir Flappy-Tongued Bumface himself whining about how people have the nerve to eat food that he disapproves of. Yes, it's a shame that people feed deep-fried lard to their kids, but tutting at them in disapproval isn't going to help. - People moaning about people who judge others. Hate to break it to you, but everyone does at some point. Even the most open-minded person will occasionally make a judgement on someone's character. I agree that certain things should not be a basis for judgement (race, nationality, sexual orientation, etc), but you'd be amazed at how many people just list "people who judge" as something inherently wrong with the world. I mean.... OK, say a bloke staggers up to me in the street holding a knife. I'm going make a judgement (noteably: "EGADS, HE HAS A KNIFE") and run. Sometimes, judgement is essential to survival. I mean, I might not know the knife-wielding gentleman. He could merely be a butcher or something for all I know. I'd just rather not stick around to find out the hard way that he's not a butcher. - People who complain to OFCOM (not sure of the US equivalent, but OFCOM is a governing body for standards in television here in the UK) about shows they haven't even seen. - People who disagree with gay marriage because they don't like it. Just don't marry someone with the same genitalia as you then! How does some couple you don't even know getting married harm you in any way? As far as I'm concerned, unless it's likely to actually harm someone, other peoples' sex lives are none of my business. - The fact that Justin Bieber is considered to be the epitome of awful music. Now, I've listened to a few tracks of his. They're not very good. They're mostly just very dull, generic RnB/pop. But I've heard much, much worse. And yet, fans of a band will inevitably post as a comment on Youtube: "Click like if you like REAL MUSIC and not JUSTIN BIEBER". Seriously, what has this squalling foetus done that's so bad? Is it being the owner of a floppy fringe? Is it being under the age of 20? Who knows? - The phrase "real women have curves". Roughly translated, it means "I'm either average-sized or overweight, and no-one is allowed to criticise me for it. However, if you happen to be underweight, regardless of whether it's intentional or not, you're fair game for being told that you're not a real woman and no man would ever want you".
^Feels good to vent, huh? You know what annoys me? This thread. OH SNAP. But I kid. You know what really irritates me? People who needlessly complain about how bad something is. We get it, you highly dislike this thing, now get out of my face will ya? The thing these people realize is that the more they speak of such things the more popular it gets. It's basic psychology, tell someone not to do something and naturally they want to, and then it spreads like wildfire. This is why things plenty of people dislike are so famous. If only people would shut their traps we wouldn't be stuck in this boat. Another thing is the people who abbreviate words in just plain stupid ways, such as replaces my for mi and see for se. You're on a computer, take the extra .2 of a second to either locate the right key or add the final letter.
Bus drivers who input the data before you get on bus, then whinge at you when you show your pass for nill fair. Which is one of the many reasons I hate public transport.
It annoys me when someone thanks you for something after forcing you to do it. It's more insulting than it is polite and irritates me to all hell.
