So, what silly thing bugs you to no end?

[SemiCharmedQuark]

[Anarcho-Socialist]

22. I can't disagree with you

:)

[BlackVelvetElvis]

2. Ugh! I have a friend who teaches 7th grade.

She says some of them write papers like that.

[RevolutionaryActs]

3. Really? That's awful.

[latteromden]

10. Ugh. I'm older than that, and my classmates still write essays like that.

The English language. Learn it. Properly.

[merwin]

6. That's one of the worst things ever

[RevolutionaryActs]

9. Ugh, yes isn't it? I'm glad someone else hates it too.

[JimmyJazz]

7. I hate when people don't mention my name in at least every third post.

:silly:

:hi: I feel like I haven't seen you lately!

[RevolutionaryActs]

8. I've seen you! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

:P

I posted on your TV character lookalike thread.... but you were too busy hitting on Cadence to notice me. :evilgrin:


Fricking typos...

[JimmyJazz]

11. I saw you! People are busting on my for my post count so

I felt guilty responding to everyone -- Oh, and Cadence is really hot, too. :P

[RevolutionaryActs]

12. Oh pffft, it's not your fault you're a social butterfly.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

:silly:

[Anarcho-Socialist]

[latteromden]

15. I hate it when people mock Chinese. I just can't stand it. *shrug*

You know, "I speak Chinese, 'Ching chong wu fong, etc. etc.'" I like to respond with, "Ni bu shuo zhongwen. Ben dan." (You don't speak Chinese. Fool.) I didn't spend four years (and counting) on the language to get made fun of.

Coincidentally, Bush's name is translated to "Bu shi" (shi sounds like English "sure"), which also means "is not." So, you get "Bu shi hui," which is either "Bush is smart" or "is not smart," or it could be a play on words to confuse (Chinese-speaking?!) Freepers meaning "Bush is NOT smart." (I've obviously spent way too much time thinking about this...)

[RevolutionaryActs]

17. I totally understand what you mean.

And that whole Bush thing is cool! :thumbsup:

[nytemare]

56. I think Chinese is a beautiful language.

I enjoy dabbling in different cultures, movies, books and such, and Asian culture, especially Chinese culture interests me. I enjoy different languages and accents. The little girl I sponser in Childreach is in China, and I always enjoy getting the letters and looking at the writing.

[1monster]

23. The drumming of restless fingers, tapping of pencils and pens, tapping

of feet, pounding on desks or doors, etc. Drives me right up the wall... especially in the classroom or when I'm reading quietly.

(Thank you, Mr. Band Director, for pushing my son to the woodwinds and not the percussion that was his first choice.)

[RevolutionaryActs]

25. LOL, did you send the band director a thank you card?

:)

[1monster]

31. I thank him in person at least once a month, and I do a lot of work

fundraising for his department. :D

[cags]

24. Cops who won't talk to you if you use profanity. LOL

[RevolutionaryActs]

26. Mmmhmm... I see.. do you meet cops often? hehe

:silly:

[cags]

27. No, Its a GD thing

[RevolutionaryActs]

29. Ahh, I like to steer clear of GD, it's scary.

:scared:

[MisterP]

28. *tiny smack of lips* *slrrrppppzzzzzzzzz* (coffee) *hwah* (yawn)

*hhhhhhhhhgh* (guttural sigh)

[RevolutionaryActs]

43. By far the most original reply, excellent.

:thumbsup:

[Fleshdancer]

30. I have a DU pet peeve....

I hate when I post a message in a thread and someone responds to my message...not because they really want to respond to my message, but because my message just happens to be at the end of the thread they just read and instead of hitting the reply button on the original post, they reply to mine while responding to the original poster. Annoys the hell out of me.

I know it's silly but damn! Hit "reply" to the actual message you want to reply to!!! Otherwise, it doesn't make any sense.

[RevolutionaryActs]

39. Ugh, yeah. Sometimes I get all confused, then I realized the person

replied to the wrong thread, then it all makes sense again. :silly:

[AlCzervik]

32. when non rock stars are referred to as "Rock stars"

that annoys me very much.

[intrepid_wanderer]

33. gum damn snappers

dad-gum snappers

you know... chew chew.. SNAP!!


ugh... can you Say Attention deficient personality??


:bounce:

[Longgrain]

34. Rev

She doesn't really annoy me...but she sure is silly!:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

Oh yeah?

Well :P

[LDS Jock]

35. people with "misspelled" names

like Kym, or Leeza, or Shon, or Ashlee or any name not spelled normally.

[Longgrain]

36. You think those names are bad

I work with a woman named Raychelle (I think I spelled that right).

[LDS Jock]

38. that was all I could think of at the time

there are zillions. The one you gave I guess is Rachel but I'd wanna pronouce it Ray Shell.

[webjamn]

49. I knew a girl named Moaneek

[yellowdogintexas]

37. absolutely...I hate those made up names

[JohnKleeb]

40. Oh yes, I was spelt Jhon by classmates for a while

It really bugged me.

[LDS Jock]

44. did you pronouce it j-hawn?

thats what it looks like

[Strawman]

51. like Jm J. Bullock? n/t

I remember when he was on celeb Jeopardy once and I just wanted to run to the TV set and scribble a friggin' "^" with an "i" above the little screen where his name was written. I think he eventually reinserted the i into his name.

[GOPisEvil]

66. He spelled his name that way because there was already a person

with that name in the Screen Actor's Guild.

[webjamn]

41. People who use incorrect words when writing

Using loose instead of lose, their instead of they're and 'irregardless' which isn't a proper word.

[LDS Jock]

46. eager and anxious are misused a lot too

"I'm anxious to get my paycheck this week."

Are you? Or are you eager to get it?

[nytemare]

53. How about "medium", you know, the grassy thing in the road

that separates the lanes...LOL. "For all intensive purposes" is another one that irks me. It's "intents and purposes", ya moran!!

I also had a co-worker(I work in law enforcement) who would always tell arrestees he was dealing with to "tell it to the public offender". The thing is, he wasn't wry enough to come up with such a play on words, and I knew he probably really thought it was public offender and not defender, so it bugged me.

Also, "nucular" ticks me off.

That is all, for now. :)

[barb162]

57. I knew a very successful realtor who called herself a "relator"

drove me crazy she couldn't pronounce her own profession but she made about $300,000/yr.

[nytemare]

65. I could understand that bugging you!

I think Carlin had a rant about this kind of stuff.

[yellowdogintexas]

42. People who drive grey, silver or other very light colored cars

and drive without their lights on in the rain and the fog.

they think that because it isn't after sunset they don't need their lights. Well, fool if you car is the color of fog, you gonna get smooshed by some body and I hope it isn't me.

[JohnKleeb]

45. When you dont flirt with me

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

47. Well that IS a silly thing!

I don't ever not flirt with you. ;)

[JohnKleeb]

48. youre not flirting with me now

I dont blame you though Kate, I got a bad cold, god why do Hall's watermelon cough drops taste like candy :).

[RevolutionaryActs]

50. Ew... sicky!

:P

Come, let us dance anyway!

[JohnKleeb]

52. Sure even though I dont feel good

[RevolutionaryActs]

54. Awwww here I shall play nurse.

Would you like some soup?

[JohnKleeb]

55. aww thanks

[RevolutionaryActs]

58. Like this?

:silly:

[JohnKleeb]

59. whoaaa baby

[RevolutionaryActs]

61. LOL... just expect me to look like her.

:P

[JohnKleeb]

ha

can you help fix up this scrape on my chin, I know its hideous.

[RevolutionaryActs]

63. Yeah sure...

:P

[JohnKleeb]

64. Thank ya

God that hurts. Can you make me a milkshake?

[RevolutionaryActs]

68. Alright.....

I didn't know what flavor you wanted, so I made you a chocolate, a vanilla and a strawberry. ;)

[Borgnine]

60. The same.

Thank God DU is comprised of intelligent people who don't communicate like that.

Anyway, I can't stand the sudden wave of finacial advice commercials that are bombarding my television. Oh, and anybody who thinks a talking baby is funny (Stewie Griffin as the exception). Oh, and people who ride your ass while driving, even though you're already going ten miles above the speed limit. GET IN THE OTHER LANE, JERKASS! I'M NOT GOING TO GO ANY FASTER FOR YOU! Oh, and people who have more than one "support our troops" ribbons on their vehicle. I counted five the other day on one vehicle. Yeesh.

[intheflow]

62. Restaurants that mincrowave food in styrofoam containers.

I know, I know, it's a freaky thing, but I have a good reason for it. Once a restaurant gave me my leftovers to take home in a styrofoam container, which they had sealed with some tape that assured me "This container is microwavable."

Well, they lied. And there is nothing more nausiating than heating your food up and opening the microwave to find your container has melted into your food. Melted styrofoam smell like burnt plastic, and mixed with my leftovers... well, it's taken me years to be able to eat beef stroganoff again.

[Darranar]

67. That annoys me, too...

Another particular annoyance is "it's" for the possessive form of "it."

[SmileyBoy]

69. The fact that even though my college is a Division I school...

That 1) We don't have a conference for all sports and 2) We won't be playoff eligible in all sports until 2008.

I watch college basketball on ESPN, and think how lucky all those other schools are to be in a conference.

Our only two sports in a conference are Football and Wrestling.

Being an Independent SUCKS THE BIG ONE.
