Things that irk you thread

[Mooshi]

Title is self explanatory, what are things that just infuriate you to no end?

 

I have a short list..

 

*This generations taste in entertainment. I mean, it actually sparked one of my least favourite segments of the WAN show. I loathe Bieber as much as the next sensible person with taste, but come on.I wish I could go back to the days where I thought he was some generic female pop singer on the radio before the constant exposure made me hate the punk.

 

*People with OP rigs that aren't even being used to their potential, bonus points if they are a kid with a system funded by parents/family. There are professionals and semi professionals that have less godly rigs than some people and still get their work done. If you have some beast machine and all you do is web browsing and gaming now and then, you kinda suck.

 

*People who drone on about a topic they haven't a clue about, but you do..it's really embarrassing, especially if they legit think they know what they are talking about. I know salesmen play dumb to attract the average person's attention so they buy something, but some people are actually kinna dense.

 

*People that watched one too many "street racing" films and believe their FWD 4banger is a race car. That fart exhaust isn't cool, it's annoying. Bonus points for non functional wings and body kits that do nothing for aerodynamics.

 

*Living breathing negative stereotypes. While we don't want to get a ticket from the politically correct police, negative stereotypes do have a hint of truth in them. Whenever someone is actually living up to a bad stereotype, I ask why.

 

*YOLOSWAG - That style is just slang for douchebag.

 

Your turn, LTT.

Shitposters. Ugh, I just want every single one of them to get banned on every forum. They don't contribute to the thread, and they even ruin members' experiences.

[Guest]

Hmm.. I just finished reading this magazine when this thread popped up, so this is good.

 

 

Since when do professional video editors use an Ipad instead of a DSLR or Video camera to record? I can understand for quick editing but recording?

People who consider themselves above others and allow themselves to judge others based on their choices in life, be it their choice of entertainment, overpowered computers or cars...

[Lays]

Eh, the things that bug me is ignorant people that post absolutely retarded things on the forum and make me question the state of humanity

 

 

 

The thing about rigs @Mooshi , if they aren't flaunting it in peoples faces it doesn't bug me tbh.

 

(what I mean is making everyone feel terrible for having inferior parts, etc, putting people down for their decisions in parts)

[Guest nightowl21]

everything. . . well sort of

 

and hypocrisy, 'cause it is so annoying when someone is a hypocrite and you want to yell at them about it but then you'll  end up a hypocrite yourself

[Caspian]

People that have no idea what they even used in their builds -.-

 

Talking to a guy about his build I gleaned these quotes:

 

"4 Sticks of 4Gig RAM, the platinum ones"

"Cooling Master case"

"3 built in fans so it gets pretty cool inside"

 

dude couldn't even remember what CPU, GPU or Storage he has!  

 

GARRRRR!!!  :angry:

[CjlabanG]

Somehow the term "Gamer" annoys me. I just hate it.

 

 

And if you add "professional" to that word, expect me to be outside your window holding an axe.

[Recon-UK]

My father.

A bully, a coward, a person who manipulates everything.

He used to physically beat me and my siblings, yet could never figure out how to parent us correctly?

Parenting has no written book, it sure is not easy either, but effort comez from both sides.

Needless to say, i lived at home for 12 years as of birth, and was then removed and put into care, my sisters and brother were also in care but we were all seperated across the UK.

I have lived with a few families, my last was excellent, though not perfect, i lived with a woman who had OCD about cleaning, and a few issues in other areas, but i never did say anything, it made for good discapline, though i never really liked it.

Througjout my time with her, she had around 3 men, 1 who cheated on her, another who was a piss head and pu ched holes in her new house walls.

I grew a strong bond to her, she had a fantastic family, a true family.

The time came at 18 where her work was done with me so to speak, it was time for me to fend for myself.

Pit into shared accomodation with another lad of 24, an ok lad at first meet and sight, however...

I received a card from my carers aunty who i loved to see.

I never knew about though until i met her, i came back and searched the house but found nothing, i then searched the lars room, it was down the side of his bed missing the money too after i read the card.

Rage was imminent, i was quiet, made no kind of physical effect from the news, but his room and belongings were my enemy, i must have been there for 2 hours smashing the living fuck out if everything in his room, his computer, bed, everything i found, smashed.

He came home, i just sat in the front room, he went upstairs, nothing was said, but i got moved to another a ommodation with a 44 year old man.

This time i was with a drunk, to make tbis short, he came home with a girl that he wanted to have sex with, even trying harx to get her i to his room, anyway he knocked the mirror off the wall where i was minding my own playing dino crisis on dreamcast.

I said you will have to clean that up, i had nothing on my feet.

I walked to ghe stairs and sat on the bottom step, he then dustpan and brushed the mess, but then he came over to me, put his hand round my throat, i immediately got up and laid into him, i was not very but, i was skinny and 6ft, my punches had no weight.

I then went to my room.

The following day he was removed.

From here i had to do something, a job was difficult to find at the time.

I looked i to Armed forces, read up on everything, i spoke to myself inside, made the decision to do it.

I signed up for the Royal Artillery.

I would need to do a selection test to see if i have what it takes.

I prepared in my own time by press ups and sit ups, i also took to the streets late at nighr for cardio.

I passed my selection and was now ready to syart phase 1 training.

I had it in my head that i would improve myself, and prove to others my worth.

I passed phase 1 training, i was originally down for 32 reg (UAV). I changed it for 7th parachute regt, an elite unit within Artillery who fight along side the infantry 2 and 3 para, my body and mental state were about to be pushed beyond my limits.

I kept my thinking, i dug so deep, in the end, i was awarded my Maroon beret and para wings after doing parachute training which was 3 months after finishing P-company.

I went back to see my father, my mother beyond proud of me, my dad with what looked like false proudness, as if he was jealous?

Anyway, later my mum falls ill with cancer, i do everything i can to get out of the Army to be with her, i went AWOL, ended up being jailed for 3 months, after such i was honorably discharged from service.

My mum got over the cancer, all thrilled, this was a happy moment.

However, a year into being home, i bought things with my remaining wages, and selflessly bought things for my dad who i had a conversation with, and said i would put he past behind us (figuring this would be better than logger heads).

My mum falls ill again, this time very serious.

My mother, a woman who devoted everything to my father, she got verbally abused daily when stuff did not suit him.

She cooked for him, even made drinks for him when he demanded.

Things were about to change.

My mother had internal bleeding of the brain and needed a op ASAP.

She had brain tissue removed, this caused permanent brain damage in the form of, loss of full speech, and loss of movement in her right side.

My dad undertook the role of carer, obviously... Money is involved.

To this day i remain out of the Army, though i do have written in my profile as in the Army, it's my sense of pride, i lost alot leaving my evolving career.

My dad now thinks he has a say in how i do things, in 2011 i met my first lady, amazing womam who made me feel alive, we had everything in common, she however was terminally ill, and had endured her own dose of pain throughout her time in life.

She had (excuse me if i spell this wrong) penuminary hypertension.

This is a heart condition that effects her fitness, breathing and blood, she was on injections to keep her blood thin, so she also fealt the cold too.

She sadly passed away last year in september, i lost my true soul mate, but i have no regrets, i made her last years happy, she shared everything with me as i did in return, she was my princess in every shape and form.

Anyway, i continue to be judged by my father, who has never worked, lives off working mens money, and thinks he works hard looking after my mother.

Please tell me i have something to be fucking irked about.

[GamerDude]

What irritates the heck out of me are fanboys, be it nVidia, AMD, CM, Corsair, whatever. It's enough to like one brand over another, but to feel the need to put down the 'enemy's brand' is a whole 'nother can of worms. It also irks the hell out of me when someone who has absolutely no idea what he/she is talking expound crap like he/she were experts......irks me to no end. But my main grouse is when a poster deliberately post misinformation about something.......if they were misinformed and acknowledge their mistake, it's peachy with me. But to have the gall/audacity to refuse to acknowledge their mistake/misinformation and blatantly insisting their opinion is the one true and correct one that must be accepted by all........that irks me to no end.

[Recon-UK]

This is one of the greatest works of art that I have ever read, man. I hate people like that. You have deffinatly got something to be more than irked about. You seem to be handling it well. +9,001 for joining your countries' service. respect.

I had to have 10 mins to myself, so much emotion builds when remembering stuff. It is like a path of hell i guess, but to me it is what has moulded me into what i am today, and all i have known.

Thanks.

I hold my head high, i try to keep my esteem high too, to be fair, my lady gave me my esteem.

I thought irk was an acronym since it just seemed like it, I know it is not now.

The thing about rigs @Mooshi , if they aren't flaunting it in peoples faces it doesn't bug me tbh.

 

(what I mean is making everyone feel terrible for having inferior parts, etc, putting people down for their decisions in parts)

 

 

It's the nature of the enthusiasts to be more in touch with hardware than their average consumer, but yeah. I'm talking more the rigs that really have zero justification of being built outside of 'because', I like things to have purpose is all. It's sorta like someone who spends the extra couple of grand for a track pack for their car and never doing more than daily commuting..such a waste of potential.

[nosirrah123]

lol, as the typical teen awkward nerd, the most problematic kind of people to me are the people who get very mad about my numerous f**k-ups, because you can't get mad at them, cuz you're the one that f**ked up .-. (I'm not going to curse, Linus's baby could read this!)

Narrow minded people, those who are spoiled and bad investments

Off the top of my head:

Liars, e-cigs, chalk, balloons (my phobia), screeching noises, those big-ego people who stare at themself in the mirror at the gym.

[techswede]

Keyboard warriors and false friends.

Also spinner hub caps (The rims are hideous too) 

Edit:

Adding 

People that ask "are you ok?" After you've fallen

"Yeah. I just tumbled head over heels down a flight of stairs and lost my virginity to a door knob. of course im fine"... Yeah right 

[Applepienation]

1. People asking "are you sure". Of course I'm f*cking sure, that's why I said it.

2. People asking "What are you reading".

3. Twisting my words into something else when accusing me of something.

4. Obnoxious people.

5. Questions that can be interpreted several different ways. These have been the bane of my existence since elementary school and I have spent many an hour arguing with teachers over how a question could be interpreted several different bloody ways.

6. People who think they're my friend because they like me. I don't like them, and them talking to me just makes me dislike them even more.

7. People asking questions with really obvious answer when they're not engaged in small talk. ("So if everything that has mass has a gravitational pull, then don't the atoms that make up us have gravity too?" "Why, yes. That's a very good question and some very high level thinking." Me: No it F*CKING ISN'T. It's extremely obvious and mentioned on the previous page of this bloody textbook.")

8. Hypochondriacs

9. Drunks

10. Doves that laugh at me when they shit on my shoes.

11. Bad drivers.

12. My Pointy-Haired-Boss doll falling off of my desk.

13. People saying something is shit because of a single aspect they didn't like. Mass Effect 3 is a good example of this.

14. People who think everyone needs to listen to what they say.

 

I could keep going, but I think that's enough.

[Askew]

Slow drivers in the outside lane, if the limit's 70 and you want to do 60 then GTFO to the left plz ffs thx.
