i also hate men who play acoustic guitar.

oh!! and the narrator on big brother.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 16:53 (twenty-one years ago)

yay, Mandee hates me! Im sorry I only own an acoustic guitar and a mandolin. ;(

― Velveteen Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 16:56 (twenty-one years ago)

well if you play the mandolin too that's okay.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:01 (twenty-one years ago)

not really i just kind of look at it right now.

― Velveteen Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:03 (twenty-one years ago)

- people who ride the shoulder during stop-and-go traffic (if I'm next to a shoulder and I see someone doing this, I'll ease on over and block 'em)

- line-in-the-sand critical thinking/critical blanket statements/attempts to turn Big mediocrities into Rich-ly praised artistes!/dismissal of music or film or any art without bothering to understand it

- cowardice, at least when it comes to people who are unwilling to say something to your face or be honest with you

- sunny optimism or "everything is just wonderful!" attitude that is usually just masking a "don't bother me with bad stuff that happens in the world, all is okay with me, that's all that matters" attitude

- the entire concept and execution of jobs and modern employment

- strangely I don't hate anyone on ILX

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:04 (twenty-one years ago)

oh I also hate the guy who lives in my apartment building who tinkers with his ugly black truck 24 hours a day.. 24 HOURS... he's tinkering at 3 am and he's tinkering at 8 am when I leave for work. I seriously think he's trying to build a time machine.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:07 (twenty-one years ago)

maybe he's only been tinkering for five minutes, but leapt forward in time from 3am to 5am, hence your confusion?

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:08 (twenty-one years ago)

8am rather

Paul Gambaccini: take him back America !

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I've built a time machine you know.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:15 (twenty-one years ago)

by the way, that one guy you meet tonight? Don't give him your number when he asks for it, he's a bit of a tool.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Are you talking to me?

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:23 (twenty-one years ago)

yes, now hurry and respond before this temporary rip in the fabric of time is closed.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:24 (twenty-one years ago)

I will not give my number to this alleged tool.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:25 (twenty-one years ago)

i hate the word "closure". I hate the concept, and i hate that everyone now believes that they can get "closure", and if they don't get it they will talk about their lack of "closure" . Fuck closure! it's called grief, anger, rage, biterness, dissapointment, etc. it's not going away. Embrace it.
i also hate dirty litter boxes - but i love the furry poopers.

― aimurchie, Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:38 (twenty-one years ago)

When people toss off not-exactly-mainstream theories about things that happen to be well researched and backed-by-facts by simply invoking the phrase "conspiracy theory".

― fcussen (Burger), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 18:32 (twenty-one years ago)

what about NWO people who think that a shadowy cabal controls the Federal Reserve?

― I CAN LEAD YOU THROUGH THE ZONE (ex machina), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 18:39 (twenty-one years ago)

What irritates me is people trying to mystify things that have more tangible, parsimonious explanations because the mystical cabalistic stuff is easier on their conscience.

― fcussen (Burger), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 18:46 (twenty-one years ago)

work collegues who intimidate their underlings

my very disrespectful neighbors and their broken windows and shouting at 5 am and the fact that they let their dogs run loose all over the street while they stand and watch because they're too lazy to go get them and the dogs run at my other neighbor's little girl. k thnx I'm done now

the return of the frat boys

my indecision

goddamn Coors commercials in which harmless tunes are remade as frat boys nu-metal chants ("My Favorite Things", "Take Me Out To the Ballgame", etc)

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 19:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Alex in NYC - i can't tell you how much i hate DiTech comercials. Jesus they suck. I watch about 1 hour of tv a day and yet i only seem to see those commercials over and over and over.

Aside from that i hate my iMac

Partisan bickering aired on twenty-four hour "news" networks.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 20:42 (twenty-one years ago)

I hate not having access to high quality health care, probably because i stabbed myself with a pair of scissors yesterday (by accident) while embarking on a home improvement project. That said - i hate stitches in my hand, and tetanus shots that make me feel like I got walloped by a baseball bat. But what I REALLY hate is that i was not given an RX for good pain pills! it is just completely unfair. Give me Vicodin - now!

people who don't use turn signals when turning - including left turns.

obnoxious parents at open house night - "I majored in history, and blah blah blah...."

― Super Cub, Friday, 19 September 2008 17:29 (seventeen years ago)

Sort of Rock Hardy's queue rage, but at the other end of the queue: I hate it when I'm at the back of the queue and the next person stands alongside me and edges a little further ahead of me whenever the queue moves. If you're on your own in a queue where most people are in groups (flights, big events, etc) and so not single file, someone WILL do this to you. HATE.

Also, the cyclist who nearly hit me by going full speed up the 20% of the pavement right between the bus and the bus stop. It's supposed to be illegal to cycle on the pavement here, but I know that's a losing battle. And I'm sure it's annoying that buses have to pull in across the cycle lane, but it does tend to mean that someone is about to walk across the pavement between the bus stop and the bus, and if nobody is standing at the stop then that somebody is probably on the bus and can't see you lurking behind it.

(I did look before I stepped out! I guess I was looking down at actual time of hitting ground, and there she was. It's really just that if she'd used the other 80% of the pavement or just gone slower I would have seen her, but she was right on the inside of the bus.)

And lately about 6000 other things besides.

― Kaluza Klein (a passing spacecadet), Friday, 19 September 2008 18:57 (seventeen years ago)

I hate how many times I used the word "queue" in that explanation.

is fcussen the same dude as gff/goole or did i just invent that

― and what, Friday, 19 September 2008 19:05 (seventeen years ago)

I'm close to going haywire on the next person who sidles up next to me, close enough to read the account number off my checkbook, when they're supposed to be behind me. But in this tiny town, I would get a reputation or a booking photo.

I think we have an "Americans don't know how to queue properly" thread, but this one was good enough.

― Radiant Flowering Crab (Rock Hardy), Friday, 19 September 2008 19:07 (seventeen years ago)
