I'm in a bad mood now and I feel like obsessing over the negative and neglecting the positive. Here is a list of stupid, trivial stuff that I hate. If people want, they can add in things they hate or they can defend the things that I hate that they like.
1. I have this little weird hand gesture thing I do unconsciously, where I silently drum my fingers. When people imitate it, I want to punch their smelly faces in until they look like an eggplant.
2. Live action comedic sketches on TV. Errrrrrrrgh. If you have the resources to make everything scripted, well filmed and high quality, you should do it. You shouldn't just go through with a stupid, live action gimmick.
3. Facebook; I'm not gunna sell my privacy just so that I can be annoyed by obnoxious internet people I've never had a real conversation with in real life.
4. This one girl I know who is always flipping between hating and adoring me. It gets so annoying and tiring. At first I thought she was just trying to get my attention, but now I'm pretty sure she's bipolar or some gak.
5. Grainy, repetitive gifs in people's sigs and avatars that play until your eyes bleed.
6. Cold french fries.
7. Emo haircuts (they cause lazy eye, which is karma).
8. Internet Explorer.
9. That time I accidentally cut my wrist, leaving a pretty bad scar. Everyone treated me like a suicidal nutjob for a few weeks.
10. People who exit your room, but leave the door open.
11. People who knock while coming inside.
12. People who knock after coming inside.
13. People who don't knock.
14. Those hipsters who wear thick rimmed glasses despite not needing them.
15. Anyone who is not a noire detective or an archaeologist or a gangster that wears a fedora.
16. Those smelly hippy women who wear really expensive sun dresses but never shower and have filthy, all natural dreadlocks. Maybe they're just in the city I'm in, but they're like a plague. Damn smelly hippies.
17. Pencil thin mustaches.
18. Neckbeards.
19. People who, when they start losing a debate, say some variation of "U MAD".
20. Gramar Nazis who always ruined good Engliuh yes?
21. When your Internet Connection goes down when you're in the middle of a big ole research project.
22. Old people who always complain, and at the same get angry at young people for complaining. "When I was your age, I had to walk uphill both ways in -30 degree weather without so much as sleeves and you don't see me complaining! Now up my morphine dosage, my leg hurts."
23. Mullets.
24. Reverse mullets (WTF).
25. Angsty teenagers who post pictures of swastikas on Facebook to get attention (very, very specific group that I hate).
26. When people don't think "The Big Lebowski" is funny.
27. "Arrow to the Knee" jokes.
28. Groups that claim to be "protecting the rights of white men".
29. People who can only view things in black and white.
30. People who can only view things in gray and grey.
31. When people have Confederate flags because they "support state's rights." That's like wearing a swastika because you like Volkswagens. It's fething stupid.
32. Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome
33. Robocop 2 & 3.
34. Snakes on a Train
35. Three Backyards
People who go into a room where people are obviously studying, And yell, play movies and just be obnoxious. I can understand Card games or chit-chat. But dang guys. This room is dimly lit, fulll of couches and such for a reason. you are meant to be quiet and relax,.
- Group projects. The one I'm doing right now in geometry literally makes me want to put my face through a wall.
- Speeches. People always tell me I have an amazing speaking voice, but they make me really frickin nervous.

My dad had a cat the loved to scratch the back of my hand. One day in class the teacher looks at my hand, grabs it, talks to me quietly and asks where they come from.
I told her that cat but i'm not sure she believed me

You're a hypocrite (complaining about people complaining). But you have the right to be that way, just as I have the right to be a negative nellie/debbie downer.
I see what you mean about the Big Lebowski thing.... I mean, seriously... the Dude abides man!
People who put wheels on their vehicles that are so large they have to raise them to fit the stupid things underneath... Especially when they then complain about ride quality.
People who lower Trucks to put smaller tires on their chrome wheels... if it has four wheel drive, it was not meant to be a fething lowrider!!
Camo paint on civilian vehicles... This is especially true on vehicles that are on military bases most of the time, and are NOT company vehicles.
The horrible people who ride crotch rockets and think that the road is their private track to race about on.
People who throw things at me whilst riding my bicycle, especially if they appear on the heavier end of 300 pounds.
On the vein of bicycling, I hate city planners who thought putting storm drains in with the grating going with the flow of traffic was a good fething idea.. Its a huge reason I don't upgrade my wheels, as I don't want to ruin a 4-500 dollar investment by hitting one that I didn't see in time.

I dislike a lot of things, and if I were to list them (or even a small amount of them) then you'd have all died of old age by the time I finish, which is another annoyance: people dying of old age whilst i'm moaning at them by using a list of things that annoy me.

I can't tell if you're joking like Corpsesarefun or if you're actually complaining about complaining.
I'm not complaining about complaining; I love complaining, it's one of my favourite past-times.
The last bit was a bit of a joke though, since it's extremely difficult for everyone you moan at to die of old age whilst you're moaning at them unless you happen to like moaning at old people in a rest home.

What else annoys me? When people die of old age while people I know from forums whinge at them about things that annoy them.

*Isn't quite sure if treadhead got the subtle hint at masturbation*
If I say anything, and it doesn't quite fit the topic or it isn't a direct and easily visible joke, then always assume it's an in-your-endo-o.
If you hear a rolling sounds, almost like the sound of a thousand wiener dogs quietly sneaking up to pee in all your shoes for that, don't pay it any attention.

I didn't think you were into that kinda stuff, Avatar, but whatever floats your boat I guess.
I hate when people hate on my Fedora.
I hate it when people say "Can you go do something for me? Please and Thank you!" The Please implies your asking, the Thank you Implies I'm just supposed to do it. So no.

All in all, my first world problems are no biggie.
Delays in US and UK shows being shown in Australia, up to several months behind...
There is a reason Oz accounts for 10% of the world's torrenting.
Having to wait for the next Dr Who series (as everyone has to) it is becoming progressively more and more awesome each year and the delay is fist shakingly annoying.
I hate...: The fact that when I say "I hate X" or something along those lines, I will have to be a hypocrite and do X for some unavoidable reason. Those self righteous douchebags in my 6th form that think they own the place, it's literally 5% of the 6th form, but damn are they thick. I wonder how they even got the 5 A-Cs required. Speaking of schools... I hate how crappy mine is logistically, literally information is weeks behind when we need it. I hate people who complain about cheesy armies, we all hate the same option as to which we buy. The fact that EVERYTHING costs ridiculous amounts of money to do. The fact that one of the exam boards for my A-levels seems to actively try to make students fail the course. Black Veil Brides. Eurgh. And, occasionally, life itself. But oh well.
And for the record, I actually like the rickroll song.
People who put emotes D: (: ): it should be :( People who only listen to limited genres of music The economy Not having a job When my GM cancels our gaming sessions

Oh, and dubstep. It sounds like someone fethed the mix, and everyone took it seriously and though it was being ironic, so the trend continued until it became a real thing. I mean, I've never had a brain aneurism, but if I did, I'd imagine that's how it sounds.

Racists
10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 Year olds who play CoD The same age range that play Battlefield.
When people Get something wrong on purpose so as not to seem nerdy, also when i find myself doing it.
Any food in a 'countable' quantity. I am okay with say sausages (because you can cut the sauasge into your own subdivisions) but Scampi or Chicken nuggets? Nae chance. Within a second i will have counted them and all enjoyment will be lost.
Close talkers. Larry David first pointed out the phenomenom in Seinfeld but some people do it. Is it to seem threatening? I dunno i just dont like it.
I hate: Hangovers Stomach Aches Atheists that push their hatred of religion in my face Religious zealots that push their religion on everyone The idiots that run our country Many people's lack of hygiene Many people's lack of basic manners Rules lawyers who suck at being rules lawyers My laundry room Lots of stuff People Things
People (my school chaplain) who try to force religion down my throat using cyclical arguments and hypocrisy, I don't care if you have a religion, but I do care if you try to ram it down my throat.
People (my school fellows) who try to insist that anyone who has religion is obviously less intelligent than them, and make a point of insulting anyone that mentions their religion in front of them. I don't care if you don't have a religion, but I do care if you go around needlessly insulting people.
People (Head of house) who think that because they're "cool" and "edgy" that they can go around etching penises and "F*** the system" onto the coffee table in the dayhouse, which I then have to clear up because I'm in charge of the dayhouse.
People who insist that music they haven't heard of is superfluous because they have all the music they need.
People who find it necessary to call me childish for playing on pokemon. I suppose you're really cool and mature for playing on Call Of Duty with loads of 13 year olds then? The fact that I can't take my physics exam for another 3 weeks.
People who insist that music that isn't "Their" genre is awful. carrying on from that, people who insist that any music that has electronic elements can be made by anyone with a computer in half an hour.
People who insist that because they can get a 1:32/500m split on an ergo for one stroke means that they would be able to start rowing and make the 1st VIII within a month, but they won't because fives is a better sport.

9. That time I accidentally cut my wrist, leaving a pretty bad scar. Everyone treated me like a suicidal nutjob for a few weeks.
I fell in a trash can full of glass when I was little, and still have the scar from it ( almost lost my hand ) and people still today notice it and ask me if I cut myself

I cut myself all the time. Stupid hobby knife slipping from the sprues...
Oh, I found one more thing I hate: Will Ferrell.
And Ke$ha-bitch needs to jump in front of a train. I've heard 6th graders singing about brushing their teeth with JD, getting stoned, getting laid and everything else. Ke$ha can die in a fire. Stupid Hate FOX studios-idiots tried to make Deadpool in a movie and made Ryan Reynolds into horse dung. They crapped on my favorite actor and my favorite comic book character. Somebody dies tonight
Incidentally, I just got back from a work trip, worked from 5:30am->3am one day, 2pm->2am the next, and 6am->3am the next. I pretty much hate everything and everyone at the moment. Expect me to feel better some time next week.
I would like to add people who smell of cheese: it is just disgusting and the smell lingers for days. Willfully unhygienic people in general are loathsome and there should be laws against it.

I don't stink up the room or anything. It's just...odd.

Claiming to like the Big Lebowski is sort of "hipster" itself.
Just saying...
Liking something obscure doesn't make you a hipster.
Liking something because its obscure makes you a hipster.
I can like the Big Lebowski for its brilliant humor without being a hipster.
And people might like any number of things you listed for similarly pure and legitimate reasons without being hipsters, emo, or any of the other labels you so casually tossed around.
So yes judging a book by it's cover is often a fail...
I liked Big Lebowski for its brilliant humor without being a hipster before liking Big Lebowski for its brilliant humor without being a hipster was cool.
I hate the people who immediately assume that I'm some sort of nerdy dick as soon as I read my IG Codex.
Never judge a book by it's cover, I have quite a good group of friends, and they're not bothered by the fact I play with plastic army men on the weekends. Of course, the opposite gender has a different opinion about this...
That'll get better post high school. It's transparent, but you might point out to them that you manage to have the disposable income necessary to play the game.

I hate raw tomatoes. They taste of vomit. The more "ripe", "fresh", whatever, the more like vomit.
Cooking neutralizes the vomit taste.
I really, really hate stealth tomatoes. I order something specifically because it customarily does not include tomatoes and does not list it in item description, or specifically ask for "no tomatoes", but there they are... this is when tomatoes fly... across the room, table, out the window, what have you.

I like these ones, 4 and 14 because i too am a member of the 'Supermarket Superforce' the other two because they're pretty good, though i work in a supermarket because i am stupid . Number 14 brings back some Horrible memories of Xmas, me kneeling over the reduction bay with a Gun(as in HHT) in genuine danger of being crushed by a zombie horde. Some other Supermarket related ones:
Customers who dont take your word for it when you say something's out of stock/not in supported in the store: Going and asking the next assisant/manager they see. Customers who think they know your job better than you, 'This is dated tomorrow is it getting reduced?'. 'I'm not at liberty to discuss store policy' (actually said that once ) Customers who blame me; a lowly assisant, for things being out of stock/not supported in the store range. The sales team/depot and their malicious disregard of your stock counts. 'Oh joy more Flora! It can go with the Other 30 cases downstairs in the backstock!' Customers who dont say 'excuse me' and just sit behind you breahting down your neck or Coughing/tutting. Customers who cant read, 'Oh you thought the chicken was 2.40? I guess you didnt notice the 'Per Kg' bit. I am sooo sorry'.

I'll stop at a nice round number before I keel over from all this venting.
Dissagreeing with 32 and 6 but apart from that i have to agree with most.
As for myself
1, My little brother when he wrecks my faveroute Evanescence poster and my mum does nothing about it-he dosnt even have to contribute to a new one.
2, when my afore menioned little brother keeps going in my room messing around wrecking stuff taking my things. ive even caught him stealing my condoms and my mother denies hes doing this.
3, when i have to lug around this elephant of a bag at college because my bag is coverd in egg compliments of my mother sending me to by some despite my track record.
4, when my mother is so over protective and control freakish to an extreme i have virtualy no freinds in the real world and zilch in the way of social skills yet she insists i cant go and see my faveroute bands live without taking someone with me.
5, chavs. nuff said
6, when 3 of the local stupid chavs the oldest whom is about 10 try and threaten my little brother when he is between myself and Tom(who is a year younger than me and built like a gorilla) then try to act tough when we come bearing in at them knives drawn(we had been doing a bit of wood carving) despite having threatened to tourture my little brother.
7, said stupid little chavs whom seem to think consistently provoking me is a good idea(im about 2 metres tall and wiry yet i can put Tom(the gorrila boy) down in an unarmed fight have anger issues and can become homicidal very easily and possibly crazy). it is a considerable feat of self restraint that keeps me from flipping.

Sorry I lost the round for us, clearly you were too busy being DEAD! When people take games far too seriously. When there's far too long to wait for something good.

Oh don't me started on that one! It's more of a general rant but it tends to be exacerbated in public jobs. Being on the shop floor you'll hear 1001 conversations going on all around you that you are simply not part of, so you tend to just tune it out as the general tumult of the shop floor and people cannot seem to appreciate this.
Why do so many people try to start conversations with me before they've actually established they're talking to me? Then proceed to get annoyed when I don't respond right away. Maybe if you actually bothered to get my attention before you started asking your question maybe I wouldn't come across as ignorant to you.
@master of ordinance: No Facebook is a blight on society and needs to be purged. It's absence will make the world a better place, sure for a few days they'll be people roaming the streets like zombies with pictures of their drunken night out, telling people to "like" them for some kind of recognition. As I said, Internet banality.

I am actually really starting to think i have a real speech impediment. I can speak perfect accentless 'radio english' but i have to concetrate stupidly hard. It feels good to vent
A less personal thing:
This only really applies in Scotland but i really dislike it when people use the word F***in' as punctuation or just excessively in speech. You'd be surprised the age range this applies to in Scotland, i've spoken to pensioners that do it.
What's doubly annoying is because (trying to remember the psycological term, cant remember it) i am constantly exposed to it i cant help but start to do it myself. I have to stop myself as i like to talk in a considered manner.
I hate this child empowerment going on. I hear kids telling there parents you can't spank me cause its against the law. That's why so many kids are bad now. I also work on the border but ill leave that alone. I don't have the time right now to comment on that.

We are worse than the Scottish in that respect as 'F***in and B***ard are universal utility words over here, they fulfill our verb, noun and punctuation requirements.

Nothing wrong with disciplining children, beating them is wrong. There is a difference, a smack to the hand or backside worked for me when I was young, why I hardly ever got in trouble.

I don't hate anything as hate takes up to much energy, but generally people, eurgh how can they generally be so benign and self centred. People individually are okay, but it's when they get together or are just generally stupid.
Which is why when I get my game together I'm going to campaign to have idiots shot just so that stops them polluting the world with their idiocy, although the downside is I am going to have to shoot myself for the very same crime.

Something else I hate is people leaving messages on facebook telling significant other I love you. Its not the place and I don't like seeing it on me feed, then they get all mad when you leave a comment that isn't some other sop fest. Keep it private people! Just like with over enthusiastic PDAs.
I don't normally mind FB its these personal love messages that annoys me. I get fed up of seeing it several times a week from friends and my sister telling their boy/girlfriends how much they love them. That and adverts that interrupt me, they are spreading like the plague, FB, youtube and all sorts.
I also hate when people decide to cancel without telling me. I don't care if you don't want to do stuff, but tell me if you're not going to turn up so I don't waste my day waiting
The human race. All of us. Every last human being on the planet gets my utter and complete loathing.

Sometimes it is dry skin, but those tend to be a bit different to the random cuts, which are more like paper cuts.
Apparently the body doesn't bother administering pain relief for tiny cuts, so they're often more noticeable and annoying than a larger wound!

EDIT: Speaking of 'racist'. I absolutely hate it when people use it as a noun. "He is a racist". HE IS NOT A RACIST, IT IS AN ADJECTIVE, HE IS RACIST. JEEZ. I don't care if the dictionaries say it's both, because it's not! It's race-ist. The "ist" turning "race" into an adjective. It just sounds plain wrong.
EDIT2: Inquisitorial Storm Troopers turn races into adjectives!
EDIT3: I love women's magazines. At least, the covers. Mostly it is what you said (lolol), other times it's "I am fat :'c". Which I find hilarious. Sadly, White Dwarf is basically that quality now.
The 'my boyfriend cheated on me with my sister's cat' line made me laugh my butt off. And I'm at work. My coworker gave me a raised eyebrow for it. kudos my friend.

It was a noun before it was an adjective, if anything using Racist as an adjective is incorrect. You dont talk about someone being 'Artist', you say artistic, a masochist is masochistic, a sadist is sadistic and a realist is Realistc etc.
Anyways.....
That moment of utter horror when one makes a post with a basic grammatical error. I am not the most pedantic person, in fact i technically have 'learning difficulties' but i try my best.

But an artist is someone who does art; racist people aren't people who make races. Okay, fair enough. "Racist"; noun for "one who makes races". But you don't say "an artist" person. If "racist" were a noun in that sense, they'd be racistic. But that's not even a word. "My friend is so racistic, he really hates bright orange people." makes no sense, but "my friend is really artistic, he loves to draw bright orange people" does. Similiarly, "My friend is so masochistic. He loves to be whipped by bright orange people."
"DeviantART is full of artism."
"FurAffinity is full of masoism. AND GOD MY EYESISM"
It can't be a noun and an adjective. Then you could be a racist racist, which is silly. Now, racism is a noun. "Look at all that racism. It's just covering my house! Does anyone know how to get it off? God!" You can have a "racist policy"; "The UN has decided today that bright orange people should all be ridiculed in public by law". If racist were a noun, then that'd mean 'policy' would have to be the adjective. A... policist racism? Gwah!
The disparity here, I believe, is that the US-English definition means both UK-racism and UK-racialism. As in, the adjective and noun. I find this completely idiotic. It just sounds wrong, looks wrong, feels wrong! It's racist, that's what it is! Yeah, racist against the word, 'racist'! It's especially racist to 'racialism', because it gets ignored!

Yes, it can be and is both a noun and an adjective. There are plenty of words that function as more than one part of speech. It also doesn't matter if it was one or the other first, language changes constantly.

All of these, esp. that one.
A new one, that I reminded myself of today, as we had some good(ish) weather for a change. People who wear woolly beanie hats in the summer. Seriously WTF? What goes through someone's head when deciding to step out the door in one of those when its hot outside? "Oh look it's 25c outside, I know I'll put a woolly hat on my head"
Oh, I hate hot weather, too. Not only is it hot, but as soon as the sun comes out for about two seconds, suddenly you have endless hordes of overweight people wearing little to no clothing. Especially the ones with tight spandex shorts for jogging.
- Disclaimers and petty terms and conditions such as "subject to availability" (which basically means "if we don't have it in stock then you can't buy it", because some people need that fact drilled into their dense skulls). Or "serving suggestion" which has to be plastered over food packaging incase someone opens their pizza, notices that it's not *exactly* as it looks on the box and thinks "I've been misled, I deserve compensation for my suffering" - I work in a supermarket, and I cannot stand the customers who load all their anger and hatred that they've suffered onto me simply because we've sold out of a particular type of cigarette or something like that. While working on that particular kiosk selling lottery tickets and tobacco I once put up with a guy having a 10 minute rant at me about the layout of the carpark, yet I'm forced to smile through it like I'm some sort of lower life-form just because I'm in a uniform ¬¬ - People who criticise others due to the type of internet browser they use. While it may seem important to some, I'm quite happy using Internet Explorer, so piss off and gossip about Chrome or Firefox or whatever dreary nonsense to someone who gives a rat's arse about it. - People who confuse "your" and "you're" *apocalyptic, cataclysmic rageface* That is probably my biggest ever pet peeve - That you don't get free toys in your cereal anymore. Kids do not care one bit that their cereal contains "100% whole grain and one of your 4 daily portions of nonsense", kids only care about the cheap tacky toy that's easy to choke on. - When your neatly-handwritten essay gets all smudged with ink because you're left-handed. - Fish - When the post van stops outside your house and you're expecting something, but the guy goes next door instead. - Those bloody kids who think they're being individual and chic at college by wearing a suit or having a briefcase or a freaking trillby hat with a feather or playing card in the brim. - Tea which is too sweet: Tea which is not sweet enough can easily be fixed, whereas if it's already too sweet, you're forced to suffer through the teeth-gritting horror. - Tea from anywhere outside of my own house, as it always tastes awful. - Football - People who have nothing to do in life except post on Facebook random, slightly-interesting photos with the caption "like this photo if you...." and then comment "subscribe to me to watch your friend requests blow up" as if they're a cornerstone of the modern internet age by having mindless drones of people follow you online. - The obscenely high standards that you have to get to, to pass a bloody driving test. - The rude bastards who sit on the inside seat on a train, put their bag on the window-side seat, so it looks like a huge inconvenience to ask for a seat. - How putting a picture of a marajuana leaf on something somehow boosts your image to people? - When you try to style your hair exactly the same way as you did it yesterday, yet it all goes wrong and you have to wash it out and start over again.
From reading that you'd probably learn a lot about my personality, I've certainly learned that there's a fairly large proportion of the population that I hate by default.
+1 to football. Biggest waste of time, space and money ever, ridculous salaries given to the most undeserving people I can imagine, not to mention the stupid amount of hype placed behind it because we've not won the world cup for years. If there is one thing I hate above all others, it's football.
That moment of utter horror when one makes a post with a basic grammatical error. I am not the most pedantic person, in fact i technically have 'learning difficulties' but i try my best.
I wonder... was it deliberate that you left the "i" uncapitalized?
But back to the point... I hate it when that one homeless guy breaks into my apartment's laundry room and pees in the boiler closet.

Indeed, racists are probably the most likely people to actually be racist.

Guinea pigs have no right to exist, they are stupid, slow, and horribly unagile. They're like cows, but without the mass that protects the cow.

Meh your wrong there-Guinea pigs are nothing like cows. If you threaten a cow then itll just flatten you and have done with it were as a Guinea pig will just run away squealing into a corner or under something that can easily be shifted and end up cornering itself all the while squealing patheticaly as though your going to have a sudden change of heart and let it live. All this does is give its position away to other predators and annoy me thus making me even less charitable to the soon to be roast vermin.
I hate those adverts you get at the begining of youtube videos. If im listening to lacuna Coil or Marilyn Manson then im hardly going to want to hear about some rappers upcoming tour or that another pop singer has just released another disk load of warbly drivel thats only selling because shes practicaly tits out on the front.

one exceptionally annoying thing (At least on dakka) is when people say +6 instead of 6+. The two have completely different meaning, the former is a bonus of a value of 6 to an action and the latter is needing a 6 or more.
Girls that text you and expect you to text back in the next thirty seconds.
High School Memes.
People that say "DOOD! I FOUND SOMETHING AWESOME!" In capslock.
Capslock people.
Know it Alls.
People that mispronounce my name.
Diablo 3 Invulnerable Monster Packs that chase you into town along with 3 other invulnerable monster packs and then camp you for the remainder of the game. (inferno mode)
'accidentally' killing your teammates in halo.
My main gripe with life is people who say anything along the lines of "nice truck, sorry about your dick" that infuriates me to no end..... There are generaly reasons why we have those giant monstrosities, for me its because im a construction worker and i need something with a gakload of tork and power just to haul gak around...
O right the people that buy those large trucks and lift them several thousand feet and cant to gak all in them.
A close runner up is people who buy small cars and put some small mufflers on them (or just taking a drill to the muffler) and the thing sounds like a dying chainsaw trying to cut through a cat.
Cats (allergies suck)
Most of the music past the 90s
Clowns
Feminists
People who call me a nazi just for some of my views
Those community bus drivers who think they own the entire damn road
When a friend shows me a newer band or one ive never heard of and i like the music then bought a week later they go belly up (Pendulum im looking at you)
Chuck Norris , i can never figure out why people love him so much..... his acting is complete crap and he essentially got famous for roundhouse kicking people....
Chuck Norris jokes
Blizzard thinking that their games are fething hack proof and when you submit a ticket you get a e-mail that essentially says "go hump a stump"
Children...... ive seen so many that i just want to murder with a wooden bat with nails sticking out of it
Teenagers that think that their life is so hard and depressing...... just wait till you get out of school fether (id kill to go back to highschool, sure its filled with drama and crap but at least id have a lot less bills to pay lol)
I think it's probably something along the lines of OTT Feminism. You stop fighting for a cause when you try to heckle teenage kids from ogling some scantily-clad woman online because it's 'derogatory'. If the woman voluntarily did it, what's the problem?

Well you might think that it's a supply and demand situation where the people creating the demand are still part of the problem.
You might also think it's a way for a patriarchal society to try and keep control over women by spreading a highly sexualised ideal of women or creating a society where women have self-esteem intrinsically linked with their physical features rather than any intellectual features thus keeping a patriarchal society intact.
You might suggest otherwise and say that modern society is keyed towards women using their sexuality as a method of empowerment. Though feminists would say this is a post-feminist message that has been corrupted by a a patriarchal society...
Go figure...

It was easy enough to learn, just annoying. It was out of date theory (Our non-feminist teacher told us this.) mixed with a whole lot of boring the average 17 year old male doesn't care about. It was Power all the way for me, then Tech.
I hate pedantic exams that expect every answer to be down to the letter perfect.
-Country music,
-most rap
-cheesy knock offs of good/semigood movies

Girls that shoot you in the head with an arrow and run out into the woods because you took their cellphone away. XD inside joke.

You don't get paid for volunteering.
More along the lines of you can't force somebody to do a job... They have to volunteer for it to get it.
Obnoxious teenagers.

Hard butter is no hassle bud - just mash it with the knife for a few seconds and it softens up enough to spread on any bread; no more waiting for it to warm up!

1. All of the old people who don't know how to drive, and purposely ignore the "slower traffic keep right" signs. 2. Directly related to above... Florida. It's Heaven's waiting room. 3. People who quick scope. 4. How you can melee somebody from halfway across the map in MW3. 5. Campers that claim they don't camp and that they won because of skill. 6. How people complain constantly about how car drivers should be courteous to motorcyclists, when the majority of motorcycle-car collisions here are the fault of the motorcyclists. 7. When, via hand sanitizer, I find out that I have a cut on my hand. 8. Yellow flies. The worst pestilence faced by mankind. 9. The people who think bragging about weed and making their usernames xXx sToNeR420dAnK xXx makes them look cool. It makes you look like a douche. 10. "You're dumb if you don't agree with me" people. 11. When you accidentally kill someone on your team, and they purposely get revenge. 12. When people report others for "cheating" in games when the person actually won using a small amount of skill. 13. "Low-boy" trucks. 14. Lifted trucks with tiny wheels. 15. Ricers with modded exhausts. 16. People who put vertical exhaust stacks on non-diesel engines. 17. People who spend an obscene amount of money on mud tires, lift kits, a grille guard, winches, "off-road" decals, and other misc. truck accessories when they drive a two-wheel drive truck. 18. People who say their car/truck is really fast because of their mods, when the only mods they did were paint the brakes and build a "custom ipad dock" on their dashboard using plywood and 2x4's. It's an abomination. 19. When you hold a door for a woman, and they bitch at you for "upholding the standards that women are inferior" and that "women don't deserve special treatment." I was trying to be nice. Get over it. 20. Shoplifters. 21. Overly-repetitive verses in music *cough*foofighters*cough* 22. People who post "reaction" videos on you tube. I have no idea who your grandmother is, and I don't care what she thinks of 2 girls 1 cup. I have to search through 5,000 different videos of the damn things to find the video I want (not 2 girls 1 cup, I can assure you). 23. People who post news stories on you tube using the same title as the original story, and then doing a "video breakdown" of why they think this guy was being racist. You're a 22 year-old pre-med student. I don't give a damn about your opinion. 24. People who are obsessed with gun control and think it's a good idea, especially those against concealed carry. The felons don't care about the laws. Why would they care about breaking one more? 25. PETA. When I eat endangered animals, I make sure to use PETA(pita) bread. 26. The ACLU. 27. Undisciplined children that have no respect for adults. 28. When people touch me without my permission, especially my head. God help me if you touch my head. I've killed a man for less.

Exatly this!
Second-wave feminism (that's basically what you're talking about) had its place*, but is now a dinosaur. Third-wave, though, third-wave is good.
*I hate second-wave feminists too. When people mock you for being masculine in 2004, you know there's something wrong.

just so that stops them polluting the world with their idiocy, although the downside is I am going to have to shoot myself for the very same crime.
