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

frogbs is a treat, living in his world where taxi cabs magically never hit people and white, old men are an oppressed peoples

think your sarcasm meter is a wee bit busted

lots of hair conditioner & a comb...or scissors? what do you normally do for armpit hair knots? this would make me kinda ia too

I shaved one of my armpits once. was really hot and had no a/c so I remember it bothering me, then I guess in some half-asleep state I got up and shaved it. Felt good, man

"Alumni of [some college]" license plate frames

I don't know, those are a lot less annoying than those huge, ugly window stickers.

Yeah, same diff. I suppose

70.3/26.2/13.1 car stickers. Or even worse, ironman tattoos.

can someone explain the stickers on cars that are a white oval with two black block letters in them? I thought they were to denote a state you'd visited but a lot of them aren't state abbreviations & it drives me a little batty trying to figure them out. I feel very daft.

Oh god, this is really common in this area and it has to include some reference to the school mascot

University of Iowa plate with HWKFAN79 on it or something

the destination/airport code ones? (xp)

i thought it was countries visited but then i saw a "CHOC" one and now i don't know anymore

I think they are pretty much meaningless at this point and you can get them for any touristy thing or interest ever now.

it's just inside joek place abbreviations

like ppl who vacation on the outer banks of north carolina have OBX

yeah I've wondered a lot about this myself and never figured out what they meant. they have to represent more than one thing.

yeah they used to be for countries but these days you can get stuff like http://i1.cpcache.com/product/51601800/wtf_oval_stickers_bumper_stickers.jpg?height=160&width=160

I think they're meant to emulate European country code stickers.

A friend of mine arranged some to spell out ME GA DE TH on his back bumper.

i think it started out as places visited, but kind of informally abbreviated? and now it's funny little catchphrases, school initials, food prefs, whatever.

i saw a BNL one the other day

i guess i never noticed them or didn't see any when it started out meaning something which is probably why i'm so confused on it

Okay, this is awesome and almost redeems their very existence.

now I want them!

My grandma's old neighbor has a NOFO sticker & I sort of want one.

I have one of these:

Haven't put it on my car yet, though.

ooh that's a good one!

He has the highest hair:surface area ratio I have ever seen on a human.

His chestscaping drove Brees and the other Saints to kick the Colts' ass (asses?) in Superbowl MXLOLETC.

I had an Albanian friend in college who was probably the hairiest guy I've ever seen. Gorgeous, but his body hair was like a layer of felt, it was incredible. He asked me and my friends to wax his shoulders so he could wear an off the shoulder dress for a guys-dress-as-girls costume party. (lol college) Oh god the poor guy was in so much pain. Very similar to the 40 YO Virgin waxing scene, but with way more hair.

I lived across the hall from a guy during my first semester of college that, I kid you not, smelled kind of like a wet dog when coming back from the showers due to the amazing amount of hair he had. His name was Dane.

Moving away from body hair, I hate search boxes and the like with text like 'Search' in them, that doesn't disappear when you click on them to put in your own search terms, so you end up searching for things like 'Discosearchgs'

things like 'Discosearchgs'

ha yes discogs does this to me too

GRRR yes I hate that

I knew a dude in college who had to decide every time he shaved where the beard stopped and the chest hair began - there was a straight line in this wall of hair running across his neck point that tended to vary up and down a bit.

I'm really sorry to sound so dumb here, but is this something in queer terminology? I'm assuming you dont mean he's a furry. I feel really dumb asking :/

A gay man who is very hairy all over his body, but is smaller in frame and weighs considerably less than a bear.

Huh.

Popsike has a search box, basically the page part-loads, then the final thing it does is to clear the search box, even though you have already typed most of what you are searching for, and you hit 'return' and it says "no entries for ture"

boomkat's search box does that predictive thing where it fills in suggestions as you type. but hitting return now just accepts its suggestion and doesn't submit the search. so you have to hit return again.

I am all knowing. Or I know how to use urban dictionary.

Candied peel really pisses me off.

--people who say "I threw up a little in my mouth".

yeah all these terms that probably came from Will Ferrell movies are so annoying, especially when people say things like "I want to kill him...IN THE FACE!!!"

also all the Facebook statuses that refer to inanimate objects or concepts, like "Dear Chemistry Class, I don't like studying for you, Sincerely, Fuckhead"

people who say "I threw up a little in my mouth".

think i wrote this somewhere last night, sorry! i didn't realize it was from a movie

Actually, iirc, the stupid "threw up in my mouth" thing came from one of the Austin Powers movies (but, oh wait, Will Ferrell was in one of those wasn't he?).
