... No. I think you're trying too hard.

Anyway, another one that I'm surprised hasn't been said. When you're in the car, and a great song comes on just as you pull up to your destination. It seems to always happen, doesn't it?
I hate it when that happens! Also, i hate it when people sniffle...just blow your nose!

I absolutely DESPISE it when im having a conversation with someone in public, and the person you're talking to starts talking very loudly in order to get someone elses attention either to join our conversation or to make themselves look cool. It happens everyday with one of my friends >_>

I hate it when someone uses "da" instead of "the"... >__> There are tons of other things, but this is my most recent gripe. It never looked cool nor does it now, so... why?

people who don't throw away their trash even though they are right next to a trash can or pass one on their way out.

Basically all really lazy people.

Having to walk into couples, people walking so slow that my legs cramp up while I follow them, smokers who smoke in clearly indicated no smoke zones, bars for banning smoking.

When people stop walking while on the stairs. I'm trying to get to geography, you **** face!
You know what? When I was still in school, I kept shoving people because I was getting so fed up with them because they were in my way. I hate it when they make it even harder to get to class in time >_>

I'm annoyed with people being obsessive over Christianity!
I'm a Christian too but I'm not trying to impose my beliefs to others like some people do!

when people walk in front of you, and then start walking slower.

also crying babies. you can be standing at the airport, with 7 brutal death metal bands playing, a meteor heading your way, and a liger, and youll still hear that baby cry. someone shoot me please.

OMG i just remembered one. I hate it whenever you just sharpened your pencil all nice and sharp, then when you start writing, THE LEAD BREAKS! AAARGH

Also, when you're writing and the pencil breaks, but theres no sharpener around, so you put back the lead and hope that it stays there but it always breaks again T_T

Oh, I know that. Hence why I just use mechanical pencils.
When people say "Me and my friends" instead of "My friends and I."

Ah, here's something that really annoys me;
Guys who complain about fangirls pairing up guys and making them gay and how such fangirls are ******** and how yaoi is gross only to follow up with "yuri ftw."

And

Girls who are very big yaoi fangirls but think that guys who like yuri are gross sexist perverts.

IT IS THE SAME ****ING THING YOU ****ING HYPOCRITES. YOU'RE PAIRING TWO CHARACTERS DESPITE CANON INTO A HOMOSEXUAL COUPLE FOR YOUR SEMI-PORN COMIC/FANFIC/FANART AND/OR IMAGINATION FOR NO OTHER REASON BESIDES FROM "its hawt lol!111" NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU'VE CONVINCED YOURSELF IT'S "omg deep and kawaiii!111."
IT'S NOT, GTFOVER IT!
And a guy thinking that two homosexuals from the opposite sex having a relationship being an attractive concept is NO DIFFERENT than a girl thinking two homosexuals from the opposite sex having a relationship being an attractive concept.

I have absolutely no problems against yaoi/yuri fans until
a) They think it's canon or going to become canon with bogus "evidence."
b) Yaoi fangirls criticize yuri or Yuri fanboys criticize yaoi.

BUT WHEN THEY DO IT, IT SEVERELY PISSES ME OFF.

And I see it a lot here in smashboards. -_-

P.S. I tried to read both yaoi and yuri. Yuri sucked because it basically was random "lol let's make out now even though I've explicitly shown interest in a guy" and Yaoi sucked because it was "lol I have sex with you every other chapter, but when I'm not I'm angsting over my lack of confidence in my sexuality!!!1"

Gawd, I SO needed to get that out of my system.

Capitalized words that shouldn't be capitalized irritate me beyond reason. I've seen people make entire forum posts where every word is capitalized. Usually it is accompanied with some other fatal grammar mistakes (such as a lack of apostrophes, something else that bothers me greatly). If they're trying to make it "look good", why do they fail at the other parts of the sentence? If they're trying to "type fast", why do they take twice the time to capitalize every word?

Something else I find completely absurd and annoying is when people make up false dreams and claim they had them. What is there to gain by making up a dream?

how do you know if its made up or not ^_^
If I know the person well enough, I can just tell. Usually they'll reach out for the dumbest ideas, pause while talking, and describe it all in one run-on sentence where every other word is "and".

i just remembered one on the way to school

people that drive hummers.
Big cars are generally terrible. My dad used to drive this Expedition and all he did was complain what a piece of **** it was compared to the station wagon we had. Generally it consisted on how the wind moved it, how unsafe it was and how much gas it drank.

Something that annoys me way too much is stupid people, not in general, but mainly when someone asks and obvious or really stupid question, i start to think "How in hell can you be such an idiot.", but im more hypocrite than that, so i dont directly say it. lol.

These forum automatically capitalize the first letter of every word, and lower cases the other ones of any sentence that's typed entirely in caps.

1. when the mattress is showing. It drives me absolutely nuts if the sheet got loose or something and some of the mattress is showing...ughh!

2. i cant stand being in a room with an open door. i wont relax or feel comfortable until the door is shut

3. people who harmonize at the end of "happy birthday". Happy birthday will NEVER sound good. Everyone is singing in a dferent key and less than half the singers are capable of singing in tune....so why harmonize?!? i dont understand it, and it annoys the hell out of me!!

4. colored pencils, crayons, markers, etc not being organized by color (rainbow order, grouping by colors, etc.) i dont understand how people can just throw them in randomly. it looks so horrible when the colors arent arranged nicely in some way

Hm, I also often capitalize every letter in a thread title. Why? I just think it looks better. And I know that it's wrong grammatically speaking. It's just become a habit now. ^^;

I hate it when people use abbreviations. It's good for chat rooms, but not in a forum where you have the time to write the full words. I don't like it when words are spelled wrong even though it's obvious how they should be written by their meaning alone. Yes, I've seen someone write "copywrite"... -_- I'm not perfect in English either, it's only my third language, but English being not your first language is NOT an excuse for writing as you please...except if you live in a country where it's really hard to come by a decent English course, then you are forgiven.

No Internet?!?
I just remembered
I hate it when people type like this
why do people type like this
nobody writes like this
unless they're writing a poem
so why do people type like this
it's really annoying to read
and there's no point in it
have they never heard of full stops and commas
or something?

I hate taking a game out of a system when I haven't finished it. It bothers me to no end and it's usually all I can think about. In fact, just today I took out Metroid prime 3 and I can't stop thinking about what I'm going to do.

In fact, I forgot my other annoyances in thinking about this.

Actually, when people say "lol" or "omg" or any other internet or messenger acronym in real life. Why don't you just say the freaking phrase???!!!

And obviously arrogant people. And Judgemental people. I hate this one guy that automatically assumes I'm a nerd because I swordfight freestyle with my friends, play the legend of Zelda, obsess over the middle ages, and play video games in general.
