"A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired."
I think we've started to get off track with what this thread was supposed to originally be about. Oh well...
Looking forward to eating cereal only to find out the milk has been cashed. Or worse someone who leaves like 1/2 a cup of milk in the container and places it back in the fridge!!
People who insist on carrying on a conversations with their face less than a foot from yours, as if personal space never existed or doen't apply.
Gleekers! Sometimes they even inturrupt in the middle of a conversation to inform you that they have "Gleeked" on you. Then reach their hand out as if they are doing you a favor and rub it into your clothes to make it "go away".
Trying to pee in the toilet while you have a boner (This is an art and takes many years to master).
People who go to a movie and ask "did you see that"... No I paid my ticket to count how many chairs were in the theatre!!!
That guy in the left lane who continues to slowly move forward into the intersection never stopping but still waiting for an opening to turn... The traffic hasn't opened up a gap yet but he's still moving forward towards opposing traffic.
Surveys and sale pitches calling my personal cell phone as if I left a message for them to call back... WTF!
But most of all... I HATE POPPED COLLARS & THE PEOPLE WHO WEAR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those could have been photograpsh printed onto canvas. Why praise all these wankers who re-create the Mona Lisa with masterfully arranged coloured flecks of dust? Doing something the hard way doesn't make something art. Just get a fucking camera and try to take some decent pictures, eh?
Only problem with that is, you probably wouldn't be able to sell photographs printed onto canvas for millions...
Damnit Pea, now Denis Peterson is grinding my gears...
"My new work has evolved into a more advanced photographic genre which I have termed Hyperrealism. It is a more extreme form of photorealism in altering viewer perception through an illusion of actual reality, as opposed to merely reflecting a photograph as a representation of reality.
In short, hyperrealism is an optically convincing, altered reality that challenges the verisimilitude of perception and illusion. As a counter culture school of painting, Hyperrealism incorporates an existential frame of reference: in my new work, it is POP culture. "
I also wonder if he decently pays the homeless people he paints...

To tie into that fail to get into the center turn lane then slow down. Instead they almost come to a dead stop while still in traffic, then with the last few rotations of their tires inch into the center turn lane...
although i will add my latest bugbear, since it seems to be a new fashion :
people who think they're in a formula 1 car and slew left before turning righ, or vice versa. Which wouldn't be a problem if they didn't do it in a turn lane. One of the dumb cunts very nearly took me out the other night as i passed on the right
Gah!!! Driving!
People who never signal. Really, is it REALLY so hard?
That's all very well that you're about to be a jerk and cut me off, but could you at LEAST signal first so that I'll know and not almost get into a horrible car accident?
-People who thrive on drama.
-Sitting on the couch with a date and having her dog or cat cock block me by taking all her attention and snuggling in her lap.
-people who think that no one understands their pain
-Being hungover at work.
-Parents who think the world revolves around their children, don't be a bad driver and think your "baby on board" sign gives you the right of way, and don't put those damn "children at play" standup plastic child-shaped things along the sidewalk in front of your house
-Sarah Palin's voice, someone tell that bitch to STOP TALKING
-special interest groups that get so gung ho about their cause they start bitching about stupid shit, ex:yes PETA, if a bear attacks me and I'm able to kill it, don't bitch at me
-that my auto insurance has a flat rate increase that hikes up my price the same amount if its a minor accident or a huge deadly pileup.
-that my english heritage pale pink skin turns bright white in photos
-women who selfishly want a baby but don't mind if a father isn't around to raise the child
-artists with big egos
-people who don't socialize because they hate other humans and only like people like themselves
I forgot to mention that I absofuckinglutely hate people who:
use "like" "and" "um" "and so" "you know what I mean" to fill in gaps of their ability to THINK AND COMMUNICATE CLEARLY.
I know someone who keeps using every one of those because he can't shut the fuck up for ONE SECOND and think about what he's going to say.
He does it SO badly that after a minute, you have no goddamn idea what he was talking about because only 1 in every 5 words actually needed to be said and had something to do with what he wanted.
so and, um, you know that thing I wanted you to do? like, I want it like this and uh, like this needs to be more like that and like, umm... we don't want this, like cause it's bad, you know what I mean?
Sitting next to people whose breath smells like rotting milk and need to have their face less than a foot away from you when they say something, and their breath just permeates the air your trying to breath.
you know what I really hate is when every time I'm not driving, the person that is driving doesnt understand the need to look foward and please for the love of god, give some space in between you and the car in front! Save lives people and if your going to dance and drive at the same time at least pay attention to whats going on in front of you!
Another thing that really pisses me off is when you take something thats already been made and you try to change the medium and you don't have a freaking clue about it in the first place! Thanks for fecking up max payne(the movie). Where the hell was the bullet time and what the feck was going on with the angels? Was this in the second game?
someone else not socializing grinds your gears? that's really weird.
I'm talking about people who I have dealt with that have some superiority complex, where they rarely socialize, and when they do they come off as obnoxious because they're talking down to everyone.
Inlaws
Owning loads of property whilst being eternaly broke because of inlaws thinking they know how to manage my money....
The wifes family inviting themselves over and waking up the baby
Learning 3d on my own

Always having to do what everyone else wants
Living in a country where almost no one speaks english
As a result of the language issue, having no friends to hang out with
Anything that wakes up my daughter
Egomaniacs
"Intelectuals" with more education than common sense
College kids who think they know what real life is

Immature kids on PC that beg for crits then cry when they are given
Religious propaganda
Visas
Stupid people that think they are smarter and better than me when obviously not
People who actually are smarter than me :P
Meh, more things piss me off than make me happy, its called life.
xenobond: they're actually a lot of work to have as pets, it seems. There's a huge chance they'll get ill, for one, if what I've read is correct.

Or how about companies that post a job that you're exactly qualified for, apply for, go on a round of interviews for, they turn you down with some excuse like "the jobs been put on hold", then about 2 weeks later post the same job again, you try to contact them about it but get no response and six months later said job is still being posted. (roll eyes here)

Quoted for motherfucking truth.
* I get heartburn all the time.
* I reek of producer. No amount of showering can get the stink off.
* I hate meetings.
* I secretly (no so secret anymore!) wish for a bazooka so I can point at my head and leave nothing to chance.
Second that....
Wait, were you guys talking about something else?
(It's a joke, guys. Don't plot to kill me)
