Quote: Those commercials dominate any other type of commercial currently on T.V. They’re so fucking catchy, and it’s hilarious to listen to.
They don’t show the second commercial lately, with the F-R-E-E, that spells FREE, and the used subcompact car. I recognize it as an early 1990s Geo (Suzuki) Metro. That sucker got over 40 miles per gallon. At today’s fuel prices, he might appreciate getting turned down for the cool convertable or SUV.
Quote: That’s the thing. Think about how many cars must be going around Pittsburgh. There wouldn’t be much fuel conserving if you have to yield for other cars before you go, then drive around a circle to get to the exit you want to. Also, what happens if you miss it? Then you’re screwed and have to go back around.
Traffic circles should only be used at intersections of five or more roads. Four or fewer roads should use lights or stop signs.
What ends up happening is everyone stops because only one lane is allowed into the intersection at a time. And, so many times, there is no traffic there; only a green light over an empty lane while everyone else idles.
But Pittsburgh, Detroit, and New Orleans are the only metropolitan areas in the United States to lose population over the past ten years. The traffic circle would work here in Pittsburgh, except for the fact you’re dealing with a population that’s afraid to drive over bridges, and immediately slams on the brakes when approaching a traffic tunnel, causing a 5 mile backup every morning. Bridges and tunnels are impossible to avoid with all the rivers and hills.
That, and the way they stick babies in TV commercials for products that don’t involve babies. The implication is obvious--if you love your children, you’ll buy this. For instance, there’s the furnace filter commercial, featuring a white, blue-eyed brat sitting on the floor. A rat scurries by.
"If you had a mouse in your home, you’d trap it!" Like I’m supposed to believe the rat and the baby are actually in the room together.
So the filters trap particles that would cause your baby to die at a moment’s notice, and only a horrible, uncaring monster of a parent would allow their baby to breathe unclean air. And if you don’t buy our furnace filters, you’ll feel really guilty one day when you’re holding your baby’s lifeless body, sobbing "I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry!" We can’t allow this to happen.
That’s today’s asinine TV commerical; I’m sure there will be more.

I hate getting $30 extra on your bill from your ISP saying you went over thew bandwidth limit, when it goes out for a minute every time the phone rings (DSL) and some days will not work for more than 5 seconds before going down again.
I hate people who think Skinny Puppy is goth.
I hate when people don’t capitalize their I’s.
I hate running out of hard drive space.
I hate that the Enter key isn’t farther away from all the other keys, so that I press a key at the same time as Enter, and don’t get to fix it because I just pressed enter.
I hate TV (there, I said it).
I hate how my brother comes into the room and randomly starts explaining the origin of killer bees while I’m typing this.
I hate that I have to pay money for a bike lock so that people won’t steal the piece of crap.
I hate when people tell me that there’s nothing to do in this city.
I hate when people try to tell me that Limewire is better than torrents.
I hate when people complain about the rules on private torrent trackers.
I hate people that beg me for a What.cd invite, get one, and then don’t use it for more than a gig downloaded in a month. I made Power User in a month! BASTARD!
I think I’m going to try the Dvorak keyboard layout some time.

Ignorance.
Racism.
People who are bias.
People like who are extremely narrow minded.
People who aren’t willing to take other peoples views/opinions into consideration, and automatically claim they’re incorrect or that they disagree with them without even hearing more than a sentence.
People who listen to mainstream music and claim it’s "the latest beats" and irritating things like that.
Australia’s laws.
When people say stupid things that are "gang" related, such as "Don’t mess with him, he knows this gang".
People who walk around in big groups and harass anyone who isn’t in the group, whether it’s trying to fight them, rob them, sexually abuse them. Basically when people use strength in numbers for bad.
Thieves.
People who are sleazy.
When you’re at a social gathering/party and every cheap bastard keeps asking for a can/bottle. Or, when they take it to the next level and decide they’re going to steal my cans/bottles.
Rape.
People who think they’re better than everyone else because they’re "popular".
Capped internet.
The lack of television on free to air TV at the early hours of the morning. Basically it’s all that paid presentation shit.

I see a lot of people annoyed at themselves here.
Another thing that annoys me: When I pop a string on the guitar, then go in and buy the string and have it stringed (they string it and tune it for free), then they tell me "d’wul hay we can fix that dent in your guitar for like $100!"
The dent doesnt affect the acoustics. I dont need it fixed. And theyve asked me every time ive gone in for strings or other assorted guitar shit.

Quote: I hate people who are only exposed to popular culture, and think the underground stuff is crap.
Agreed! Then again, on the flip-side of the coin, you have to realize that there’s people who only think underground stuff is cool and hate anything that’s relatively popular. I’ll admit sometimes that happens with me, but very rarely. I’ll stick by something if I like it whether it gets popular or not. I just hate the idiots that fuck it up.
Quote: I hate running out of English muffins, milk, and tea in the morning, because then I have to go to the store before I can have breakfast. (today)
That’s all you eat for breakfast every day?
Quote: When you’ve got glue, or some other whiteish substance on your trousers and someone points it out and tells everyone it’s cum. (Admittedly it’s like... 70% of the time cum, but still. I do use glue quite often, so fuck you.)
That happened to me Freshmen year when I had a bleached spot on my shirt. I noticed kids were laughing during my speech, and I looked down and laughed even harder. Afterwards I made a joke about it when the teacher left the classroom and people thought it was hilarious. Then it just blew over. I still hate when that happens though. You feel like a piece of shit.
Quote: Traffic circles should only be used at intersections of five or more roads. Four or fewer roads should use lights or stop signs.
That’s the thing. Here, they insert them in the most pointless places.
I see your points though.
Quote: i hate my parents not letting me go to warped tour
Don’t lose any sleep over it. It’s gotten progressively worse each year. I’m going for like 6-7 bands, or less. I don’t even see why I still bother going. I think just because it’s hanging out with my friends and fucking around really. Especially the ones I don’t get to hang out with a whole lot during the Summer.
Quote: People who aren’t willing to take other peoples views/opinions into consideration, and automatically claim they’re incorrect or that they disagree with them without even hearing more than a sentence.
That just makes this thread/most of the things in it one giant paradox. I do agree though.

Yeah, we use 10% of our brain just always, constantly, on the spot. The other 90% is devoted to other stuff like memories, skills, how to do stuff, etc.

I’m annoyed people who hate Capitalism because they are too ingnorant to understand pretty much anything about the world they live in or how it works.
Without Capitalism, I can guarantee you would not be surfing the internet, or much less own a computer.
People that hate Capitalism should die a slow and painful death. Save the oxygen we breath for better genes.
