1. People who ask stunted questions and expect me to have the patience to answer all of them, when I can easily tell they are NOT buying a damn thing from me. It is a waste of my time to have to show you a bunch of TVs you arent going to buy while your asking me the difference between LCD and Plasma, and how the answer I'm giving you makes no freakin sense to you anyway because your stunted.
2. People who love to just "wing it" and not pick up a warranty on a television. I cant tell you how many TVs I've sold that are over $2500 and the 5 year warranty that covers parts, labor, repair, instant exchange, and free in-home service at less than 10% of the price of the TV. It costs 60-70% of the price of that TV to have it fixed and you just put a ton down to buy it.. but I guess people just love to waste money and will just get a new one if something happens. |
It is you're stunted not your, someone would get annoyed at you according to this thread.  |
crap... you just raised my blood pressure. Didn't even notice the "your"
your - pronoun
you're - you are
to - preposition. Example: I am going to the mall later today.
too - adjective. Example: He is going too fast
who's - who is
whose - possessive pronoun, example: Whose dog is this?
Now someone will post, "I hate the correct my grammar guy." |
I died a little inside when a "prelaw" student pronounced the word nuclear "nuculer." |

(This happened to me 1 hour ago)...
Motorcyclists who walk/maneuver their bike in and around stopped cars at a red light from way the hell back of the stopped traffic.
Dude, relax. Just ride your crappy ass, wanna-be Harley and wait until it opens up for you to get ahead of the group. Scratch up my ride with your wack ass handle bars or pipes and I'm gonna beat you into the ground.

Some more...
1. When major sports shows state that "Tiger Woods is the first black..." without mentioning that he is also Asian. In fact, percentage wise, I think he is more Asian than black.
2. People who still write checks to pay for their groceries.
3. Paper cuts
4. People that stand up for every base hit at the Dodger game.
5. Beachballs at the Dodger game.
6. The wave at the Dodger game.
7. Raider Nation
8. People who have sweaty palms.
9. When playing Texas Hold'em, someone beats your near nuts hand on the river. |

Because it was nothing for two years straight until the dog mysteriously found a way out of his fence and was never seen again. |

Wow, he came off looking like a jackass in that interview, didn't he? Gupta generally seems like a straight up guy in everything I've seen him in and he has a good rep. Gupta made good points in the interview, while all Moore could do was rant and rave and pout like a spoiled child. The talk of Moore acting very diva-like seemed pretty validated after I saw that interview. |

My freaking neighbor who is picked up every morning at 7am and her ride has to freaking honk the horn waking up my entire house because she is too effin lazy to knock, or call on the phone, or the neighbor know she is there because she arrives at the same time every single freakin morning!
And just the whole honking in the drive way thing. So lazy, so trashy. Get off your ass and knock on the door or ring the doorbell.

I dont know what his issue is with ppl disagreeing with him and with valid reason too. and it's funny how he kept bringing up the war in iraq when he couldnt think of anything else. Iraq? horrible idea. We GET IT! but the status quo of the american healthcare system existed long before the invasion so i found that point pretty irrelevant. :roll:

Haha - that reminds me - the pimps in the tenderloin area of downtown SF.
I used to have to get to work at about 5 AM and one of my co-workers didn't have a car but lived close by me so I would pick him up on the corner there. More than once I pulled over and waited for him to come out and a pimp would come up to my car and tell me to make a purchase or get moving. Stupid pimps. We're all just trying to make a living, why ya gotta try to chase me off? |

Where I work we are expanding, so those bastards won't park in my parking lot anymore.
But I work right on State St. so they will camp out right in front of my building, so every day I have to walk by some crappy artwork, same thing every year. Blegh!
I can see why locals hate it so much. I've only dealt with it 4 years now.

Premeds with "premed" majors... what are they going to do if they don't get into medical school with a major that includes the word "premed"? |
Since you brought it up, typical "premeds" like yourself annoyed the hell outta me in college. You know the type, the kind that walked with their noses in the air, went up to the professor after EVERY class to ask him the stupidest f [ at ] ##ing questions just to get closer to licking the profs' nuts, refused to have their notes photocopied if a class was missed, those who tried to sabotage others by stealing books or backpacks, the ones with no social life who acted like the losers they are, I swear some of these kids needed to step out into the sun once in awhile, and also get clocked in the face every now and then. |

ooh i too hate the stereotype you mentioned.
however, you'd be happy to know that the better among us do not fit your descriptions.
the ones who ask irrelevant questions for no reason are not exactly a+ students. |

it's slightly annoying when people tell others how to post in a forum. |
2 or 3 paragraphs (and a paragraph is like 5 sentences) is ok. But not if it's a) on an issue that doesn't require such a long response, b)is basically 1 sentence repeated 20 times, or c) repeats information that's already been posted like 5 times in that thread.

Some people, including myself, cannot help it. It's a disorder called Hyperhidrosis and its only permanent solution is surgery where a set of nerves is severed. All other solutions are only temporary and for some people, like myself, it doesn't help at all.
I have considered getting the surgery but then the partial loss of feeling in the hands is something that is stopping me from doing it.
Next time you are disgusted by someone with sweaty palms just think for a second that the person can't help it and you pointing it out isn't helping. |

I have a friend who I play poker with. He has that condition etc and is considering surgery.
Sorry... I know that a lot of people can't help it... but it still doesn't mean it's not annoying. |
