Innocuous things that make you irrationally angry (a list thread)

yeah but it's not the same *kicks dirt*

it's quite amazing that someone like brodie has caused a rift in the ILX continuum. I really want to know who the puppetmaster is, but I fear the reveal might lead a lot of us to faint.

shh brodie's real

i like to imagine he's brodie croyle

he's the KIIING OF THE WIIILD FRONTIIIIIEEEER

;_;

It's just a 15 year old Australian youth who likes men and wants to be a bellhop someday.

sigh

i really dislike that the Circle K on my property has the only convenience store in the area that seems to NOT HAVE ANY BREAKFAST PASTRIES OR BAGELS OR ANYTHING. i don't even want quality, crap is ok BUT PLEASE HAVE IT AT LEAST!

Strange things afoot.

is that so wrong?

the "e" in "l.a. noire." i'm sure there's a trademark issue behind why the e is there, but that's no excuse.

Noir (or noire) is the French word for black.

i've probably mentioned this before, people who wear Ed Hardy things and have no idea he is a tattoo artist.

Double or multiple CD cases. They smash off before you have even got the cellophane wrapping off. You want to listen to your new CD but already you are fed up that the front cover has fallen off, the hinge is smashed and bits are falling out all over the place. Make them better, we pay enough

wait CDs are still a thing?

They are in my world.

the art of pretend technological futurism

also any type of MMA clothing. You look like douchebags.

I am not sure what that means, i just get fed up when the middle bit from a 3cd case falls to the floor.

mma fan culture as a whole, really

(although I actually enjoy watching mma and have a friend who works for ufc)

oh mixed martial arts??

Noir (or noire) is the French word for black.

fine, i concede, but it still LOOKS wrong!

It's wrong in the sense that 'los angeles' is not feminine, so therefore should not be followed by 'noire'.

Film noir = correct
Bete noire = correct
LA Noire = incorrect (the only place where we can say gender confusion = incorrect LOL)

LA NOIRE = correct
EL NOIR = incorrect

also incomprehensible

If LA means 'the', then correct. If it means Los Angeles, incorrect.

THE Black

lol

a whales vagina

why on Earth would that make you angry

didn't you hear how his parents bought the farm?

(by collecting pelts made out of whales vaginas)

Why did this thread just go the direction it did WHY WHY

are you irrationally angry?

GIS for Karate Kid brings up a fucking million pics of Jaden Smith and three of the o.g. Daniel Son.

people who have a crosswalk 50 feet away from them but instead decide to cross in the MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, then stand on the median and wait to cross. THE CROSSWALK IS RIGHT THERE.

no wonder so many people get hit by cars

jaywalker 4 lyfe

they do this all the time on this one stretch of road by me. it's a blind corner too. idiots. the joggers are the worst. why do people jog and then take shortcuts?

same blind corner is also responsible for people standing in the middle of the road to see if the bus is coming. it won't come any sooner just because you can see it...

in other annoyances, there's a little cafe i walk past on the way to work with chalkboards outside. and rather than the boards saying 'Buy Our Coffee' or whatever they have pithy sayings on them. and these really rankle. makes me glad whan it rains.

"What is the speed of dark?"
"Change is inevitable, except from changing machines"

God I'll co-sign that, koogs. I mean I'm all for repurposing old time honored cliches to be humorous, but there needs to be some level of standard for it, and if you do it daily, it's overkill.

re: jaywalkers, jaywalking is so common here in Florida, that my mother (who was BORN in New York, and lived there the first 20 years of her life, mind you, before she moved to FL), just kept stepping out into the road when the sign said 'don't walk' when we visited New York.

After about the second time where she was nearly flattened by a speeding car, I had to scream at her to wait for the Walk sign. I mean for God's sake in Queens it seems like every street has one of those 'memorial for someone who was killed by a car here' signs.

hmm, jaywalker 4 lyfe but I do at least check for cars first.

jaywalker 4 certain death

I get super paranoid about jaywalking when I'm in LA, I guess I don't understand when it is OK and when it isn't, like if I'm walking along my mother-in-law's street and I need to cross over, there is no crossing unless I walk right down the street to the intersection with the next main road, like 500 yards away, what if I just want to walk from her house to the park across the street? Is that OK? My wife just laughs at me but it's her fault because she told me her ex got a ticket for jaywalking once.

It's all very strange to me because there is no such law in the UK.

in FL sometimes it's usually not that big of a deal if you do it on a road that has very low traffic, but I get sick of people who jump out in the middle of the road, not even at a crosswalk, then look angrily at you if you don't stop. not even thinking that stopping could cause the dude driving behind you to drive into your front seat.

like this old woman and her husband did this on the street heading back home last night. walked in the middle of a two way road, actually put up a hand to stop the traffic. and the cars actually stopped in the middle of the road.

if it were me they'd still be scraping those fossils off the street
