Little Things That Bother You

Not open for further replies.
This is my most recent pet peeve:
I work at a movie rental store and recently the local rug rats have decided that lifting up the 'after hours' movie return slot cover and peering inside is a hoot. They drive me fucking crazy, every ten minutes one of them will be there peering through the hole towards me. I try to ignore them, but they are always there, starring and snickering amongst themselves. The teenage scum bags that loiter around town have taken up the hobby as well and it just annoys the crap out of me. So today I decided to take action.
I cut open a cereal box and fashioned a cover for the slot so that the movies can slide in no problem, but if you lift up the flap and peer inside all you will see is cardboard. It works very well and I decided to get a little pay back by sticking a very creepy set of eyes on to the card board so when the little urchins come back to stare inside they'll find someone starring right back.
Can't wait until they come back and I can get my revenge.
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I realize these people aren't talking to you, but this may still be effective. [video=youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wRXa971Xw0[/video]


Bothering me...
- inane chit chat
- people who get "tired" just thinking/talking about difficult issues (religion, politics, etc.)
- divorced parents who still play their childish little games around the holidays

You're a goddamn evil genius! :D

Also, your avatar do I see a female snuggling up to a Drell?

EDIT:
@Nennius- ugh, everything about that irritating little waste of life, from her voice to the diarrhea spewing from her mouth to the way she talks as if she is trying too hard to be black makes my skin crawl.
 
Getting texted at 6:30 in the freaking morning regardless what it's for not that I'm not grateful that people want to wish me a happy Easter but it doesn't have to be at 6:30 am especially when nearly everyone I know knows that I have a hard time sleeping as is my kid is the only person allowed to wake me up early lol and if he's still asleep then I don't want to be bothered haha
 
A new thing that has bothered me at my new job, more like a person that has been bothering me. Every night, before we clock out, the employees line up in front of the machine to clock out. It's neat, organized, and quick. One fat old man decides that he's better than this and simply places his bag underneath the machine to hold his place. When it's almost time to clock out, he gets up, shoves everyone out of the way, and shouts "I'm first." to everyone. On top of that, he's extremely slow in doing this as well. And everyone is ok with this for some reason. We have other elderly and overweight male and female coworkers that wait in line like the rest of us, what makes this fucker special? Every night, he waddles his fat ass to the machine to clock out, and then he slowly waddles out of the way while everyone tries to clock out.
 
When the weather forecast is dead wrong.

Dress for rain and showers? Why the fuck is it so hot!?

Overcast skies? It's bright enough to power solar panels.

I know they don't control it, they just make fairly accurate predictions. But a lot of people around here are hoping for a weekend that isn't mother nature with a split personality. :/
 
Dark Souls (again) because fuck Namco Bandai, fuck that game, fuck the Bed of Chaos, fuck Lost Izalith, fuck Japan, and double, nay, cripple solar fuck the creative designer behind Dark Souls right up his ass.

I broke another controller over a boss that's killed me in absolute bullshit ways 10x today alone. So rather than get so worked up I smash the console and shatter the disc with the most ogre like hammer I can find, I'm just gonna get some much needed sleep and try not to wake up wanting to dismember a kitten.

Oh, and Fuck New Arlondo Ruins. And the Darkwraiths and their bullshit cheap-ass ability to steal my fucking humanity I worked my tits off to get!

That I don't get much help with keeping the third litter box clean. I have to clean up all the shit because the cats are assholes and don't always use the litter box because it isn't clean enough for them despite two other perfectly good litter boxes.

Fucking cats.
 
Sastiel. Fucking--!!!! NO!! Dammit!!!! Shut the hell up! It's never going to happen! I can't hear you! La la la!!!!!!!!!!!

All these stupid fantasies people have with Sam and Castiel in the library at their new "batcave" or whatever, getting close and bonding over history books, snuggling and reading together and shit-- you all people make me sick!

I'll see your third and raise you three. :( At least mine don't have accidents though. Sorry bout that. Only my dad's diabetic cat does.

They really are horrible, awful pets. If they weren't so cute and funny, they would be the worst pets ever.
Break your leg.
Dog comes running to see if you're okay.
Break your leg.
Cat wonders why dinner isn't ready.

Well, that's given me some unwanted mental imagery.....

Anywho, I'll second that, but also add on that I hate weird fan pairings for any series that are made for dumb reasons, like the characters having the slightest thing in common, or just for the simple hell of it.

I don't hate all shipping, I believe it's called. I just don't like weird, inexplicable and sometimes flat out disturbing ones.

But hey, at least in Supernatural's case it lead to a humorous little scene in the original Chuck episode that poked fun at it a bit.
 
People that talk to you when you have earphones in, then you have to take them out, wait for your hearing to adjust and then ask them to repeat.
 
When your typing a document or post then your computer randomly refreshes and its all gone.

Same here. Though, I try to remedy that by wearing only one at a time when I'm using earbuds and am expecting to be spoken to. With full headphones, I have one on my ear, and the other resting behind my other ear. Sounds alot better when I'm using both, but I can't hear piss with my ear phones on/in and I don't like it when people tap on me to get my attention. Especially if I'm in the middle of a game or something.

I don't hate being touched or anything that serious. I'm just simply annoyed by people tapping on me to get my attention for any reason. Pet peeve, I guess.

Truthfully I think I would prefer getting tapped, I jump a little but don't mind that much. Its just the fact that people just come up and start talking to me when my earphones are in and I'm busy and not even looking at them. Its like they except me to know they're there.
 
Yea, I can understand that. You'd think seeing wires coming from your ears or seeing big head phones wrapped on your head would clue people in to that they should speak up a bit louder, or wait a few minutes if something doesn't require immediate action.
