The "What Annoys You/What You Hate" thread

Red October1984 · 12-31-12, 09:12 PM

You ever see or hear something that makes you want to punch a hole in the wall ? You ever drive yourself crazy because of it? Here is where you can state what drives you over the edge.

I'll start.

I cannot stand to be in the same room with anybody who is chewing loudly. With their mouth open? Even worse. It drives me crazy for some reason.

You guys' turn now!

I hate intolerance of religion. Why can't Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists and Hindus just get along with each other!?

I can't believe I didn't think of this one.....

Imported junk.

It does my head in...really. Endless tons of low quaity nick nacks (ie crap you don't need) that people buy just because they can..., because it's cheap. And it's all destined for land fill in a very short period of time.

It's especially bad when it comes to things that compete with locally made/good-quality products as the ridiculously cheap imports force local/qualtity manurfacturers to lower the quality of their products to be able to compete with the chinese (et al) rubish price-wise. This seems to create a kind of feed-back loop with net result being that all products in a catorgory become low quality and it becomes impossible to buy a good quality product at all, where previously it was the best quality product that sold best.

When I think of all the recources that are burnt/consumed producing all this garbage it does my head in. There's the energy (and pollution) to mine the materials, the energy to ship materials to china, there's the materials themselves, theres the production (factory) energy, the materials for packaging (and ascociated costs/pollution), the transport costs to ship the finished junk back to australia (or your country), there's the distribution transport, there's the work you had to do to earn the money to buy that novilty egg timer you allways wanted that'll break after the third time you use it, then there's the energy to get broken junk to the tip and buried in land fill 'cause it's too hard to recycle, and of course, there's the whole lot repeated again 'cause you have to buy another one, 'cause you decided to buy something cheap 'n' nasty...........AAAAAAARRGHHH!

Sure, it only cost ya two bucks, but what's the real cost of all this junk?

i absolutely HATE when something is obviously bothering my GF and she outright refuses to talk about it no matter what.

she would rather stew over it and refuse to discuss it than risk reaching some sort of solution to her problem

I'll second that Troopie, just drives me nuts.

Cellphone users is another. You can't talk to some people anymore because they are on the phone while you just sit there. Even if the person you're talking to tries to get off the other won't quit. Either that or they are texting somebody, you might as well not be there.

Why is it that some people think you have nothing better to do than to talk to them on a cell, if you say your busy their feelings get hurt.

Went to a Christmas dinner at my sons GF. There were eight people there but only me, my son and his GF did any talking everybody else was either on a computer or cell. Nobody said anything to anybody most of the evening.

Maybe it's just me but it drives me crazy.

You can't be the only creative one around here.

You know what else annoys me? Mouth breathers. People who breathe loudly out of their mouth makes me wanna punch a hole in the wall.

It sounds different than nose breathing. AND! When a noise gets on my nerves, everything else is slowly zoned out until all i hear is Darth Vader over here like he just ran a marathon.
