- 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

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 (nineteen years ago) link

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

8am rather

Paul Gambaccini: take him back America !

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:12 (nineteen years ago) link

I can't phantom that, Gear.

I've built a time machine you know.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:15 (nineteen years ago) link

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 (nineteen years ago) link

Are you talking to me?

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:23 (nineteen years ago) link

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

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:24 (nineteen years ago) link

I will not give my number to this alleged tool.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 17:25 (nineteen years ago) link

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.

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".

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 (nineteen years ago) link

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 (nineteen years ago) link

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

More things I hate....

- Von Dutch gear and the people that wear it.
- The advertisement campaign for DiTech.Com
- Telemarketers
- Zealouos Republicans
- Religious Fundamentalists
- People who say "take it serious" instead of "seriously".
- Joe Scarborough's "Scarborough Country" on MSNBC
- The following words: "hero", "patriot" and "genius".
- The inexplicable need to reduce everything to a soundbye (i.e. September 11th 2001 now being universally referred to as "Nine Eleven!")

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 (nineteen years ago) link

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.

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

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 21 July 2004 20:42 (nineteen years ago) link

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!

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

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.
