What annoys me is when people don't see the hidden word SARCASM at the end of some of my posts.

Political Correctness.

Believe me, there are plenty of people around here who are pissed off by that.

Hair in the shower. I'm not talking about hair on the wall, I'm talking about clumps on top of the drain. Grosses me out, man.

So if Corpa say SARCASM in post, Corpa being sarcastic?

I have a lot of pet peeves, but that's probably because I'm easily irritated. If you make noises when you eat, I will smack you. If you pick your feet around me, I will smack you. If you hover over me while I'm doing something, I will smack you. If you try talking to me while I'm reading a book and won't shut up, I won't smack you....I will rip your head off.

Yes. Just don't call me Corpa. That sounds too much like Orca. And I am not a whale. Corp is fine.

Zeno understands.

I don't like when people spam, for obvious reasons.

If you can't guess why, 1. that is a fail. 2. It is because spam is REALLY annoying.

What do you have against spam? Its a miracle food. You can eat it for anything from sushi to sandwiches. Try that with regular meat.

When people say 'muzlim' instead of 'muslim'.
When people say 'izlam' instead of 'islam'.

Another pet peeve of mine is people that speak in the 3rd person about themselves. It's not cute.

Aren't you glad you don't live in PR? I could listen to reggaeton just by putting my ear to the ground.

Pet Peeves: Political Correctness, mostly the term "African American" for people who are really "Americans of African Descent" as they themselves did not come from Africa but rather their ancestors did. Also the fact that it is okay to call white people white instead of "Caucasian American" which is the proper term.

When people spell colour, honour, centre, etc. the American style. Even though I am an American I never thought it looked right spelled color.

Religious nuts that try to jam religion down my throat, then proceed to deny what I say when I proof their claims wrong with examples from their own holy texts.

Ignorant people. Usually tweens and teens.

Actually "Caucasian American" is not the proper term for white Americans according to recent debates and is no longer used by The United States National Library of Medicine which discontinued it in favor of "European." The root for Caucasian is Caucasoid who's definition is not ristricted to white skin color but includes broad spectrum of anthropometric measurements which place Europeans, north Africans, Middle Easterns as well as west, central and south Asians in the "Caucasian Race."

You are indeed correct, however when you fill out paperwork for anything it always says "Caucasian" and "African-American", so if they are going to be incorrect why not go all out?

Aside from the inordinate amount of time my son spends on his Xbox, I guess I'll go with people who don't like to goof off. I'm a fairly rough housing sort of person, wrestling around, tickling, that sort of thing. I can see how it can be taken too far, so I try not to go there, but when you tickle a person a couple times and they shoot you a scowl, immediately protesting angrily, it's kind of a let down. It's just hugely disappointing to me when a person isn't playful at all.

We would never get along.

Speaking of not cute, baseball caps worn backwards. The cuteness wears off at about the age of 18 months.

But T&L likes it when Zeno does that.

Nazism is not Socialism. It's a contradiction.

Communist is not Stalinist. Repressive, totalitarian governments are not stateless communes effectively fueled by compassion.

Theories are highly-supported, thorough tested observations in which direction and strength have been determined repeatedly to the point where they are effectively, but not necessarily, facts. They are very, very serious things that only require your eyes to demonstrate. They are not, in any sense, guesses; that would be hypotheses. Layman's terms do nothing but cheapen the meaning of the word theory.

Insanity is a legal term, not a psychological one. I am occasionally guilty of this.

OCD is not just organizing things. It is performing behaviors or rituals such that they dispel distressing and uncomfortable obsessive thoughts; thoughts that your mind becomes fixated on and won't let go unless you compulsively engage in behaviors.

I hate it when I'm talking to someone and their busy paying attention to something else or a hot girl/guy walks by and they stop talking to me to check out the passerby. Another one is when people don't listen and you have to repeat yourself multiple times even though you were speaking clearly.

Alrighty then. Um... good to know. I guess.

People who don't use the on-ramp to get up to highway speeds. Also, attention whores.
