This is the general vent-thread for posting anything and everything you hate. Keep it clean please.
Things I hate:
-People who ask me what I'm reading. I'm obviously reading and don't want to be bothered, so take two seconds to freaking look at the cover of the book.
-People who touch me. This is my number one pet peeve. I don't care who you are. You do not touch me without permission unless I am on fire.
-People who give purposely stupid answers to serious questions in a lame attempt to be humorous.
-Idiots who buy Neons and then load them up with a crappy Wal-mart stereo system to rattle every window on the street with. The louder the bass, the smaller the wang.
-Idiots who have their car cranked down to about 3 inches above the ground in the mistaken belief that it's cool. Learn about potholes, people.
-Fat people who take the handicapped carts in grocery stores. Stop eating Ho-Hos and deep fried snickers bars and start jogging.
-People who try to get me to be 'politically correct'. Don't try to make me say about 50 extra words to refer to something that can be described in two words.
-People who have a problem with me and don't tell me until they freaking explode in my face. If you have a problem with something I'm doing, tell me and I'll try to fix it.
-Macintosh zealots. They're freaking computers, people. If you like to use Macs, fine. Don't gush all over me about it.
-Ipod zealots. These are even worse than Mac zealots, since they do wierd things like treat their Ipods like pets. Keep away from me, please.
-People who toss a book on the floor in the library when they're done reading it. There are shelves for a reason.
-People who think it's OK to give the guy behind the counter a hard time for no good reason.
-Crazy environmentalists. Sure, some of you do good things-- but I don't ever forget that most of you want humanity to go back to the days when high technology was cracking your enemy's skull with the jawbone of an antelope.
-Crazy Reds. News flash, idiots: The Cold War is over and Communism lost. Go get a job.
-Crazy leftists: No, I would not like to donate to the "Save the spotted Termite" front. No, I do not care about your belief that George W. Bush is Satan Incarnate. If you can't talk reasonably, don't talk to me.
-Crazy rightists: No, I'm not religious. No, I don't think the US should rule the whole world.
-Crazy atheists: Fine. I'm an atheist, and you may be one too. Doesn't mean you need to make an idiot of yourself and be all hardcore about it.
-Crazy anarchists: If it's all the same to me, bub, I prefer to have a government that pays police to protect me, firemen to put me out when I'm on fire, and garbage men to haul away my trash.
-Door-to-door Mormons: Do not knock on my door at 6 AM and try to convert me.
-Door-to-door Jehovah's Witnesses: See above.
-Door-to-door salesmen: If I want something you're selling, I'll either buy it at the store or on the Internet.
-People who think it's cool to dress like a 'Gangsta' and speak ebonics: Learn to speak correctly and dress normally. The chances of you becoming some sort of famous rapper are slim to none.
-9 year old kids who think it's cool to dress like a 'Gangsta' and speak ebonics: See above.
-'Gangstas' who tell me they'll "bust a nine in my ass": Aheh. Ahahaha. Ahahahahahahahahaha.
-People who threaten me with physical harm over the Internet: Ooooh. I'm scared. Please don't get your 400 pound Cheeto-munching self out of your forklift/chair on my account.
-People who threaten me with legal harm over the Internet: Subpoena THIS: t( " t)
-People who assume that it's OK to PM me on IRC without asking first. There are very few people who get to do this, and if I don't know you, you are not one of them. Even if I do know you, you are probably STILL not one of them.
-People who tighten the screws on computer cases with a power drill: God forbid someone should ever need to OPEN the case again.
That's all for now. I may post later when I think of more; this is just all I could think of right now.

The word "Mecha". Mechs, people, MECHS.
Also, the word "Transvestite", because it sounds like a disease.

My turn.
FFXI Assholes: I don't care how long have played, what NM you have camped, what ungodly items you have. That does give you the right to make trains that kill many people. Nor does it give you the right to treat people like carp and call them Noobs makes you sound more like a noob anyway. So get of your high mighty throne ass. Its a Game. Damn. (FFXI rant ends now)
I need to get that out, I may add more later

Usually, I have a pretty calm attitude about most things, and it usually takes a LOT to get me ticked off however, once I finally do reach my breaking point, I usually wind up exploding.. unfortunately that's one of my few weak points. However, here are a few things which wind up annoying me or turning me off faster than normal: - Excessive cursing. Sure I may not have the widest vocabulary in the world, but I do prefer it if I talked to someone whose vocabulary extended beyond choicey four letter words. - Asking me to do more than two things at once. Sorry, I'm not a computer, I'm not exactly a multitasker. - People who truly, honestly believe themselves to be higher than everyone else. - People who see and/or abuse power as a means of solving personal vendettas. - Anyone who holds a personal vendetta against me, especially if I've already gotten over my own vendetta (or never had one in the first place) and made the fact clear. I try my best not to hold grudges for long periods of time, you should do so as well. - People who join games for the sole purpose of breaking them to pieces. - Excessive usage of fancy vocabulary as a means of scaring and/or intimidating people away. - Contests which are rigged, impossible to win, or the outcome is already pre-determined. I like challenges, but I hate truly impossible situations. - Consistantly bad roleplaying. - Godmodding. - People who absolutely refuse to improve themselves. - Anyone who thinks ninjas or pirates are cooler than mages. XD Just kidding. I'll probably think of more later, it's late now.

Hmmm... -SBC Yahoo! DSL. I do not want your memory-munching client, and I do not want you to make arbitrary changes that screw me and other router users over until we can reach tech support and spend 8 hours finding out that the problem is on your end. -Gray Davis. Personal vendetta. -My former high school's administration. See this. Other disasters in their leadership may or may not be expounded on at a later time. -Calculus tests. Enough said. -Guro artists. Messy executions aren't any more appealing even if the victim is a cute anime girl. I really wouldn't like to believe that anyone else wants to see that, but... -Futanari artists. The female body is a temple. Please don't desecrate it. - Idiots who send me annoying messages on AIM. We think it's great that you have nothing better to do than bother some random stranger on the Internet, but please put that time and energy into something more constructive, such as swallowing a few thermometers' worth of mercury. -Stanford University. This one's just out of spite. Oh, oh, and: -Hardcore vegans! I like meat (real meat, none of this tofu turkey crap), and no amount of pamphlets depicting poor little livestock being mistreated will change that. I may sound like an ass, but those cages aren't magically going to open and those roosters aren't magically going to grow their beaks back if I put down my steak. -SBC! Yahoo DSL. I already put this one down, but I just want to say that these jokers wouldn't know reliable Internet service if it slugged them in the face.

Oh boy, where to start...
Elitist Christians: "Remember, you're going to hell," I hate people like this. I mean, I'm Christan too, but I don't try to be mean and better than everyone else. People like this give the Good Book a bad name.
Snob ass Teenagers: You know who they are. They strive to be better than you. Man it makes me sick.
Snob Ass Kids: Remember, when Dave Chappel said it, it was funny. When you say it, you sound like a dumbass. And no, you could not "bust my ass" no matter how many of your friends you get.
Self Righteous Assholes: I don't care if you have a cause, leave me out of it.
Anarchists: Hate the government so much? Alright, that means I get to bend you over and own you as a slave. The only law is the law of the strongest, and for some reason, you just don't get that.
Agnsty Goths: Shinji ain't got nothing on these people. Not only to they depress themselves trying to look cool, but they try to bring you down with them! Go suck a steak, vampire-boy.
Azns: Nothing enrages me more than self imposed stereotypes. What is this, the Asian word for Nigger? (There, I said it.) I don't care about you or your tricked out car, I'll try to keep my pride as a Korean, thank you very much.
Low Riders: I live on a street with speed bumps. Nothing makes my day more than the sound of screeching metal on pavement.
Bubbly Female Otaku: Errgh, no I *don't* care about your latest Fushigi Yuugi fanfic, nor do I want to hear about the latest Inu Yasha episode.
Overly Righteous Male Otaku: No I don't care about that episode of DBZ, nor do I want to hear you harp your whines of agony on wanting to date Haruko from FLCL. (Which, while still a rockin' anime, I still get too much of "OMG!!1!1 Did j00 see that ep of FLCL?!")
I think that's enough for now. For all intents and purposes, I don't mean to offend anyone out there, and if I did, I sincerely apologize. This is just how I feel about certain things though, and as such, please don't try to convince me otherwise.

1. Religious fanatics. I hate to have such ideas forced down my throat and having a classmate easily converting about 1/6th of the class to his religion or sect doesn't help either. It happened last year and it could happen this year.
2. Goth people. I went to Aslan's college and they're rather mild compared to those over in North America. However, I'm simply turned off.
3. Dinuguan (literally means "to be bled out"). I just dislike the concept of animal blood in food in general. Goulash sometimes has it, so I better be careful.
4. People who are too afraid of yoghurt and curry. It takes some time to get used to, but it won't kill you. Plus, when I introduce yoghurt to others, I make sure to make them taste the sweet ones first.
Also, Japanese curry isn't as spicy as Indonesian/Malaysian curry, which in turn isn't as spicy as Indian curry.
5. People with a lack of personality. As in very vanilla people. I don't jive with them because it's hard to talk to them.
6. People who are so "convinced" and have "strong" convictions, but who are really just wishy-washy. I've got classmates like that and a former English teacher who's like that. Usually 5 and 6 go together.
7. Fangirls. 'nuff said. "OOH PLUSHIEEESS!!!111one one"
8. Pearl Shakes. Because of the fad. Imagine milk tea with crushed ice mixed in. For you to enjoy it, the season has to be pretty hot. Also, the pearl shakes have toxic tapioca balls.
I drank some and got tired of it quickly because some flavors were too strong-flavored (made you dizzy) . Also because it's not too drinkable at times.
9. People with car boomboxes. Just like what Berrik said.
10. Racers when you're just gonna have them for street use.
11. People who own SUVs and huge Pickups and use them only for town/city use. My dad has a an SUV (not tropicalized) and rides it for vanity.
Sadly, I would use a car for it to be used, and used right.
12. Faddy people. People who try to shove fads down my throat.
13. Mob mentality. I've had enough of it in school and in class.
14. Recurring beggar classmates. Learn to provide for yourself. I'd give you if you'd not do it too often. Or if you have something to trade with.
15. People who absolutely refuse to improve themselves. I agree, Tilus. Especially if they like to explode in your face at the slightest comment.
16. People who run pyramid schemes/frauds. I've had enough of them screwing other people over, my mom included.
17. People who like to bash galgames. They're not all bad.
18. People who are too crazy over galgames. *cough cough* Even though I do such things, I'm not that bad. You people give people like me a bad name.
19. Overhypers. Usually goes together with fads and galgame maniacs. Did I mention EVA and DBZ, etc etc overhyping gets me worked up? As for Warhammer 40k, I have no comment. I better read more WH40k books to get a better opinion.
20. Godmoders/Charactershielders/Ripped-Shirt-Kirk advocates. You know who you are. No explanations needed.
21. People who are sloppy. I bother about proper manners and customs. Also, I try to be neat about things. But I am not a neatfreak.
22. Control freaks. Sometimes you should be more gentle with things you know.
23. People who don't care too much over hygiene. It shows if you do so.
24. People who make corny gimmicks or commercials. It adds bland to the spice of life.
25. People who try to dress gangsta style and ghetto. In the Philippines, you can blame Salbakuta for these lasting effects upon the youth.
26. People trying to make underage kids be involved in gambling by using subtle methods.
27. People who easily shift back to old but less-correct habits. It's hard being around them.
28. Extremely legalistic or "moralistic people". Usually they try to look decent but their flaws can show up, which can be a mix of anything in the list here.
------------- With these kinds of things, I have to really meditate at times to control myself. Otherwise I lose control and get moody and such.
(Meditation makes me very stable indeed. I become more rational, fo rone)

- The homophobic. I've been pushed to the point where I don't even care what your excuse is. See Maullar's second IM link, as you can tell it just isn't acceptable. It's a form of discrimination no better than racism, so back off, m'kay?
- All other forms of discriminationists, be they sexists, racists or anything. There's no need for it, and you have no excuse for it.
- People who get angry. Yah, this may seem strange, but I'm talking about the people who flip-out completely. I just cannot stand it, as I see it pointless.
- Advertisments. Oooohhh this irritates me sometimes, especially those at the start of DVDs and in the middle of TV Shows.
- People who instantly, immediately oppose all anime dubs. Okay, listen - not all dubs are bad okay? Most sound just fine to me, and I haven't heard any dub in my life that I haven't grown fond of over time. Give it a rest, each anime is different, so don't immediately bitch and rant about how you want to stay as far away as possible from the english version!
- Mindscrew anime. Now then, this is a little hard to explain, but I'll try my best. Mindscrew anime includes Evangelion and RahXephon - it's full of strange sounds, images, scenes, dreamy states, nightmares, confusing ideas and echoing screams. The thing is, I do like RahXephon and EVA. I like them both a lot, they're fine by me. My gripe is with what they acctually are. I just wish they weren't... Oh nevermind. This is too hard to explain. RahXephon and Eva still rule! XD
- Methuss. What's the point?! *Breaks down into tears*
- People who give one-word answers to things. I've grown up thinking that people who give one word answers are cold, nasty, unfriendly people. I always try to answer in a sentance, just to be friendly, you know.
- Townies, the scourge of Britain.
- People who make HUGE Roleplay posts and fully expect me to read them. I have nothing against you Roleplaying, by all means go for it. Just please don't expect me to read your 5 pages of work, that's all. Sorry, personal problems mean I can't read huge blocks of text at a time. Know this in the future!
- Smoking. Doesn't look nice, and the Smokers I know don't like it either, so I generally dislike it.
- People who breach copyrights, and steal others' ideas. Especially quotes and things that someone has made up on their own.
- Religious zealots, and those who try to impose it upon others. Please don't ever, ever try to force religion upon me. The Christian religion has rejected me, and you can ask my local vicar if you want the info. Other religions... well, I don't want to get involved, though I have no problem with them because they haven't attacked me... yet.

-Christian Elitists (as Regris said it, alienating others is perhaps the worst way to treat others. It's these people that gives Christianity a bad name.)
-Racism (Yes, I'm Asian. Yes, I'm Christian. Yes, I'm not a nationalist. Yes, I don't smoke and don't do drugs. But that doesn't mean that you can insult and discriminate me for being the way I am.)
-Flamers, AKA those who just can't help to include that four letter word in every sentence they spoke (Oh, please. I know you have a messed up life, mind, and brain. But including all those f-words everytime you say a sentence ain't gonna change anything.)
-Idiots who run around naked in the examination room during our final exams (You guys are just screwed up. Wrong person, wrong place, wrong time, and wrong dress code. Get the hell outta here.)
-Over-obsessed gamers/fanboys (Yea, that chick is hot. Yea, I love to meet someone like that chick in real life and marry her. But that doesn't mean that you can complain, groan, whine, and daydream about that chick all day. Get over it.)
-Jackasses over at GameFAQs, which makes more than half of the board's population, I believe (you jerks, why do you always have to say how Wei Yan sucked, looks, walks, and talks like an ape, have wimpy moves, and how others looks and plays much better... in a topic about how cool Wei Yan is!?)

Kid you not. I think it's some kind of Fraternity/Sorority house tradition in here. What happens in, during our examinations, there are quite a random chance that all of sudden, there'll be a scream, then followed by a person, which can be either male or female, running into our exam room, butt naked, screaming gibberish and such, and running out to the other door. Possibly a sort of punishment from a Truth or Dare game, or a test to enter a Fraternity/Sorority house.
My two cents? While they're pretty hilarious to watch, they just really screw us and our concentrations up. >_<
