Things that irrationally piss you off

[TemporalRift]

The dog staring at me. Endlessly. Freaks me the fuck out

The shitty ancient can't even play Quake II piece of shit computer I have to use at work

The fucking BBC and it's 13 episode all at once seasons. That's nine months without new episodes. Bullshit. Get capitalist and start paying your regulars like gods already so you can work them half to death and make a decent length season

The bus. Public transportation is bullshit

My boss insisting Netscape 7.2 is the best browser ever and that dialup is the only secure way to surf the internet. Dumbass.

NJ being retarded and not being able to give me the information I need to buy a bus pass. You want a zone number? Well guess what, it's not on the website, map, ticket, bus, signage and the driver doesn't know what it is. Fuck you.

1. People who pronounce "data"  "da-tuh" (as in not "day-tuh"). "Da-tuh" is probably more correct, but it makes me angry for some reason. Thus, irrational.

2. People who constantly refer to themselves as "______ majors" in order to legitimize certain situations. "Oh, I'm a comp. sci. major, so my not having read any great literature really isn't a bad thing." "Oh, I'm a philosophy major, so I'm allowed to sit around and think instead of actually doing anything." Not that all comp. sci. and philosophy majors are like that, but these are just some quick examples. In essence, defining yourself by your major is stupid and is simply a way to try to mask other shortcomings.

3. People who don't use turn signals. Seriously, it isn't that hard! All it takes is a quick flick of the wrist. And don't do it as you're turning. It isn't an "I am turning" signal, it is an "I am going to be turning soon" signal. Although, this one is rational, I think.

4. The indie music "scene." I'm the first to admit my ignorance of indie music. I'm not bashing the music. I'm bashing the people who think they're better than everyone else because they listen to music that no one else has ever heard of. Maybe this is just me, but if I ever formed a band, I think I would want wide exposure. But, apparently all mainstream bands are inherently evil. Who knew?

5. Powerpoint presentations. Powerpoint used properly is boring. But, no one knows how to use it properly, meaning that powerpoint becomes extremely boring, to the point where I want to stab the people around me.

1) How pretty much anything has become "random" with kids these days. "Isn't it so funny and random that so and so said that to me?!?!?" NO! IT ISN'T RANDOM! OR FUNNY! FUCK YOU!

2) People on battle.net whom I don't know in real life. Bastards, the lot of them.

3) Jack Johnson.

4) The fact that my new cell phone is incapable of ringing. It can beep, it can play the VZW song, but no, it can't ring normally. I can download a ringtone that kind of sounds like a phone ringing, but no, I'll keep my $2.99 thankyouverymuch.

5) This kid in my anthropology class who yawns and sighs loudly, as if to notify the whole class that he is bored. It's not only disrespectful to the teacher, but it's damned annoying to me.

[The Ocean]

When people insist that Donnie Darko is the greatest movie ever made
When people insist that Coldplay DOESN'T suck (they do, get the fuck over ir).
When Rolling Stone prints another 500 best list. They are always out of order and they are always wrong.
People who use the word "disenfranchise." I just fucking hate that word.
People who pronounce mischievous "mis-chee-vee-ous." There is no "I" after the "v"
