juuldude : What always irritates me? Crazy Christians! I am sure you know at least one! I've known a whole bunch of them! Just the other day, I had a demanding and rather grouchy customer I was trying to explain something to. She ended up buying 4 bags of candy corn and a huge bag of lollipops for under $5. And she still wasn't happy! Here's the kicker, after she finished complaining and was getting ready to leave, here's what I get "GOD bless." Really, you just got done complaining after all that, in front of other customers, and then you're going to throw my LORD out there. That is just one of the many kinds of things that give us Christians a bad name oftentimes! That has to be one of the most irritating things that I have ever come across!

What always irritates me? I could make a long list, but here are some.

- Lag in games, of course. The bane of gamers, everywhere.
- When I'm listening to the radio (my digital alarm clock... radio... thing) and the same songs keep playing over and over again.
- My cousins being all loud and obnoxious. I wish they can just be quieter.
- When my parents keep bugging me to go to a certain place I don't want to (like the mall, for example).
- If I say "no" to someone, it means no. It does not mean you should keep pestering me with whatever you have.
- People annoying others about their religion. If you have a religion, please don't bother others about it. I'm fine with you having a religion, but please do not rub it all over my face.
- When people call me a "hacker" in a game. I'm just good at the game, no reason to call everyone who's better than you a hacker.
- When people call me a "noob" in a game and keep flaming about how bad I am. Meanwhile, there is someone else who is clearly doing worse than me.

One thing that comes to mind since it just happened a few hours ago is when a part of a game is ridiculously hard, but you make yourself think that it is supposed to be easy, so you can't figure it out. 

I thought of something recently.

It's when people always take the middle ground on issues and choices.

The middle ground isn't always the best. In some cases it might be, in other cases, there's a clear answer.

But I think of it as a stage in rational thought. At first you think in absolutes. Then you learn about the grayness of choices, and how things aren't always straight forward. Then you start realizing that all choices have their positives and negatives. At that point people start choosing the middle ground. I respect that more than always thinking in absolutes.

But it's when you progress beyond that you realize that while there's a lot of grayness in issues there's usually a side that's slightly better than the other. Instead of staying out of it and saying both are stupid, I think in most cases it's better to just side with the choice that's slightly better.

You wanna know what really grinds my gears?

Drama - I mean come on. You talk drama day in and day out. Why do you bring drama everywhere. If you want drama, go to Facebook. Trust me, I deal with enough drama on Facebook. I only keep Facebook because that's mainly where I make friends and talk to them. I just hear way too much drama on Facebook. It's always "I'm sad. I broke up with someone" or "I hate my life. I want to kill myself to end it all." Why would you kill yourself over stupid stuff? You should just try to work your problems out.

Bullies - Growing up, I have had many people pick on me. People called me names. That really hurts when you are picked on for no reason whatsoever. Bullies just pick on you cause they think it's funny and they like hurting other's feelings. I say we stand up to our bullies and tell them that it's not right what they're doing to others. We need to put an end to these bullies.

Losing people you love - I  know we all lose people we love. I just hate the fact that we just have to stand there and watch them die. I have had to stand there and watch 2 people die that I loved: my dad (whom I lost 10 years ago on Father's Day) and my aunt (whom I lost a couple years later just about a week before Christmas). t hurts so much that I lost them. One on a special day, the other just days before another special day.

Well, these are the main things that really grind my gears.

Not having internet. Not having internet really sucks. 

FaithFighter : Somewhat related to what you said, I get really upset when I see "evangelical" Christians trying to spread the gospel through hate. You know, the people with the signs that say "GOD HATES SINNERS" and "REPENT OR GO TO HELL". Giving people an ultimatum or telling them they're going to die sure is a great way to attract people to Christianity....

Westboro Baptist Church. 

Westboro Baptist Church. 

You know those kids on Call of Duty online, that talk a lot of crap to everyone, seriously i know this may sound insane but it makes me wanna give them a HUGE whooping, seriously WHERE ARE THEIR PARENTS, and oh no i'm not stopping there, people feel really safe behind the internet, some are just nice guys and the others are complete jerks, 96% people i meet on Call of Duty insult me for no reason, this is why i always decline when my friends ask me to play Call of Duty with them, i enjoy Call of Duty though it gets boring but that community... seriously say you are gay and prepare for a whole lot of abuse, and i'm still not done... a lot of racist people are on the internet and they wouldn't dare say that in real life, of course... i love the internet but seriously people act like they can do anything and get away with it

Hmm, I think I might have something to throw in here...

What irritates the Coco... hmm... I guess when people act like they know who you are, and assume the wrong things about you, THEN go out of their way to tell others what they told you about it. Not cool, peeps... not cool...

I guess a majority of my pet peeves come from ignorant assumptions and apathy of sorts.

but in the meanwhile, I think I'm going to read some more of these posts...

When my friends smack my bottom.

It's rather annoying I don't touch other people's bottoms but I punch them in the stomach

as a reflex.

I hate people who are rude for no reason.
I can understand that people have Bad days I myself just had a terrible day today. But I would never ruin someone elses because of it.
I demonstrate food in store and I am fully aware that not everyone wants what I'm giving away. So I Will Greet everyone (Hello How Are You today?) and if you dont stop/respond/slow down/look like your interested I will tell you to have a nice day and won't say a second word to you.
IE:
1
Hello Sir
I don't Want any
2
Hello how are you today?
sneer
3
(This one happened yesterday)
(I was buttering bread when I saw someone walk by)
*without looking up* Hello how are you today?
I'm fine thanks
*looking up to address* That's always good to hear
EXCUSE me I'M on the phone!!
