Lets face it, we all have a list like this. And it might even be longer than 3 things. But, what are your top 3?

1. Stupidity

Can't stand it. If you work in retail, you see this everyday. And not just in retail. People are always doing stupid things, and a lot of the stupidity is uncalled for. I can tolerate a lot of things, but I can not tolerate stupidity of any kind.

2. Girls that laugh at everything

These are the girls that will laugh no matter what. Yes, very annoying. I don't even acknowledge that they are there.

3. People that are so in love with themselves.

Can't stand people with inflated egos. People that are conceited. People that think life revolves around them, and that the world owes them a favor. Fuck these people.

1. Rich People

Fucking snobs. Yeah, I might be a *little* jealous that they have more money than I do, but the way they act coincides with #3 on RetroRain's list. This includes most Mac users.

2. Aggressive Drivers

These people run red lights, weave through lanes quickly with no blinker and little space in between cars, blast their sound system, peel out for no fucking reason, and just drive like Jeff Gordon graded them on their driving test.

3. Stupidity

I work in retail. I work in the Copy Center as well. The two things that people most seem to have a problem with are two very fucking simple things. One: first come first serve. I can't do your shit right away because some fat bitch came before you and wanted 11000 copies. Two: There are people in this world that seem to think they can get a fucking ELEPHANT inside a fridge. They complain about a white border on the page on the left and right sides or top and bottoms of a page. They just think I can fucking snap my fingers and make it happen without cropping or stretching the image. PHYSICS MOTHERFUCKER. DO YOU ABIDE BY IT?

1. Snobbish, "I'm Better Than You" people

These people can go to hell. You say anything to them and they morph the conversation into how they can do whatever better, and how great they are compared to you. It doesn't always come from rich people, I know a few rather nice rich people. But these people can just go die in a fire, I swear. We have quite a few of these here. I'll leave it to you to find out who they are.

2. Hypocrites

Even WORSE than snobs, hypocrites just really tick me off. And my parents are the biggest hypocrites in the world. People who tell you not to do something, force ideals upon you and such, and then don't follow by them. THAT just pisses me off to no extent.

3. Idiots

I see a lot of them around my area. They're mostly the "gangsta" form of idiot, waddling around with baggy pants, loud voices, bad language, all that kinda stuff. The ones in my school aggravate me with their moronic ideas and ideals. I don't see many OTHER kinds of idiots, but these are bad enough.

Pretty much the same as has been said here.

Not so much stupid people but people who are just ignorant but know better than to do what they're doing. Smart or intelligent people can be the same way. I won't hold it against someone if they're young or are unfamilar the language.

I hate when people judge people before getting to know them based on some attribute like how much money they have or their sexual preference.

Edit: miscouted

I don't like people who think they're better than others and are loud about it. They just need to prove that they're better and bring everyone else down in the process. It's petty and stupid. Okay, you have a skill. Make a mention of it if it comes up or someone is interested but don't be a dick about it. Then there's the people who really aren't better than anyone else but act like q huge hot-shot.

Excuse bad grammar, I'm posting from the phone.

Let's see here...

1. Ads. I know, I know, they make money for various sites so you don't have to pay, but still, they are in the way, hard to block (at least, on some sites), and, in some cases (such as on FFNet), have sound.

2. Distractions. Especially while playing Chess, or something similar. For me, one distraction could potentially make me lose a game which I might have won otherwise, or give me a bad headache, etc. etc.

3. Aimspeak, 1337 speak, etc. and general illiterate behavior. Yes, I understand if you're using it to save money while texting, etc. or just to save time, but on a forum? Or in, say, an online game like StarCraft or WarCraft? It's annoying to see a game where all of them speak something practically incomprehensible to others who don't use it (as often, in my case).

And, for a fourth.

4. People who don't give reasons for arguments. For example (and there are many indeed), someone just posting a comment on YouTube that, oh, say, says that the PS3 is better than the Xbox 360, but doesn't back up their argument and their comment consists of "xbox 360 sux, RROD haha! PS3!" and believe me, I HAVE seen something like that.

Really quick edit: Yes, I know the Red Rings of Death for the Xbox 360 suck, but lets face it: At least it indicates it needs to be fixed.

1. Idiots
Mostly the kind that can't find something that's terribly easy to find in the first place.

2. Arrogant People
Once I notice one, I get annoyed. These people need to know the Internet shouldn't be for them.

3. The Occasional YouTuber that sends you a PM advertising their videos
I don't know what is more irritating and time-wasting than this. I don't know how it's so successful. It's just typical spam mail, and the person sending it expects something in return (mostly a free sub or ten). These guys just need to f*** off and do something else with their time.

...and that's all I can think of.

1. People who try really hard to prove that they're better than you.

This seems a bit odd, but one of my pet peeves is when anyone, including my friends, goes OUT OF THEIR FUCKING WAY to prove that they are better than me, or anyone, in some respect. I can admit when someone is better, and don't mind it. I can accept that I'm not the best person in the whole fucking world. But when someone inconveniences themselves and others just to prove that they are better, THAT'S when I get pissed!

2. (A good portion of) The Internet

The internet is an insanely useful tool for various reasons. But much of it is also a terrible, terrible place. 4chan being one of those places. Ignorance, ruining things that were good, pretty much any meme, etc. There's also shit like goatse, tubgirl, and the like which are just awful things that should never been seen by people. I've had the misfortune of dealing with those two in particular with a large spam attack that happened on GenericBoard not long before it died...

3. People who don't know when to shut the hell up

This one is pretty self explanatory, I believe.

I earnestly can't think of anything that pisses me off... I mean, I can be angry at times, but not for any reasons involving generalities. I guess I'm just a pretty mellow person.

Edit: Reading through other people's lists, it... Why would you be angry at this? It all seems so petty.

1. People simultaneously text messaging and driving (especially when I am a passenger in said vehicle).

2. My younger brother, but that's probably because he reminds me of myself, except stupider.

Other than that, I can't really think of anything else.

I'm taking this first one cause it's accurate for me too.

2. Lack of sleep

Seriously, people just need more sleep. It fixes damn near everything. When I don't get a significant amount because someone decides to set an appointment at 5 IN THE FUCKING MORNING, I get pissed.


Those are really my only two things, everything else I've sort of just grown to dismiss.

~ Edited since NightKev can't handle it

~ One that works hard and something else takes it away. Gosh...

~ People who keep repeating their statement in an argument. Others have moved on and that person won't stop repeating the same thing. Obviously this person sucks at making points and other things.

There are other things, but not now.

Why be mad at them? There is nothing or anything much they can do!

I think we can all agree on this one:

The fucking phone rings during dinner.

When I'm eating, the last thing I want is to be bothered.

"Idiots" and "stupidity" are way underrated (not to mention bringing those up in such discussions every single post like some sort of mantra is getting old quickly).

Imagine what hell life would be if all the people in your country started thinking for themselves and doing what is best for them - instead of throwing their money out at the lotteries, going to disco instead of learning and thus allowing you to get into the top third of your class or buying the latest pointless novelty item your father's company happens to be producing.
Imagine if the people who dispose of your garbage, do your plumbing and tile your roof concluded that they deserve a better place in life than that.
If everyone performs above average, the average is bound to rise - and earlier or later, you'll be among those it will pass.
Others' stupidity shouldn't be an obstacle to the intelligent person; it should be a blessing. Stupidity lends itself to exploitation.

Also, yeah, what Stark said. Why confine yourself to walking through life constantly grumbling how much everything pisses you off?

Because it's a venting mechanism. Some people get so pissed off that without a venting process they will just pick up a tire iron and beat the shit out of someone.

Now, I would not consider myself on par with one of the Columbine Shooters, but I *am* human and having to vent is completely normal.

That being said, fuck crotch rocket riders.

I am talking about avoiding the state of being pissed off to begin with, not about the way you deal with it.

It's all a question of attitude and the right amount of doublethink. :3

I am considered an optimistic person. However, I believe that this emotion is unavoidable. Things *will* piss you off, one way or another. I am usually a laid back and calm dude (my demeanor would probably fool you) but sometimes I just get pissed off. I can't just ignore some stuff. That is why I have prepared ways to deal with that state of being pissed off.

I get angry when I get hurt or hurt myself. That in itself might be hardcoded in my body, and no amount of "doublethink" or correct or appropriate attitude will fix it. Of course, it's not the same for everyone, as it is with health issues.

I suppose that's why we have people with ADHD and metalheads. Fuck metalheads.
