Little things that bother you, and are also INSANE.

That’s ok, it will be exactly as chaotic as it is now! I do hope you’ll find something you like while playing “shuffle the deck” with them :slight_smile:

Don’t let them push you around. If they keep it up, you can play the Doorsvery quietly, late at night. :slight_smile:

I hate it that Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s are so close together. There’s hardly time to clean up from one before you have to prep for another one. It’s especially bad if you are attending or teaching school between September and January.

In CRPGs I often like to name my character things like, for instance, “Master”, so that the NPCs show proper respect when talking to me. Or “Dickhead” or “Fucknut,” which has the opposite effect. If I play a character with a familiar, the familiar gets named “Shithead” - after The Jerk.

I’ve never done WOW - not into the online thing - but I imagine my naming convention wouldn’t go down very well.

It bugs the crap out of me when people say “anyWHO” instead of anyway or anyhow.

It also bugs the crap out of me when anybody over the age of 3 uses the word “potty.”

And the only people who should be making jokes about 69 are 13 year old boys. Yes, it’s both a number AND a sex act. We get it. STFU.

Two of the middle aged women in one of my campus offices always mention that they’re going to “go potty.” Aarrrrghhhh!!!

The woman who sits next to me at work is in her forties and says she has to go to the “girly-girl”.

I hate it when a thread about ostensible insanity turns into run-of-the-mill mini-rants . But I know, that’s just crazy talk.

Also, it bothers me that reality isn’t real, but won’t fess up to it. I keep anticipating my sensory world to pull off its mask and say “ha ha, just kidding!” but it annoyingly persists in upholding this “reality” facade, despite the flickers of things I see out of the corner of my eye sometimes.

There’s a distinct difference between a “dashboard” and a “glove box.”

</scuttles under a rock to hide>

I’ve always mentally spelled that “anyhoo”

As my dad put it once, “Grown men don’t go poop.”

I had a friend who was a karaoke host at a local bar. He played a game called “Suicide” where somebody would take the mic, and he would ask the audience for some random numbers. The numbers would determine the disc and song, and then the person with the mic would attempt to sing the song whether they’d ever heard it or not.

Boy he got tired of people shouting out “69!”

I’ll bet the people who shout out “69!” think they’re being really edgy. And most of them would probably never actually perform a 69.

It drives me bonkers when people have bangs that hang right down into their eyeballs. I want to push it off their forehead and tuck it behind their ear or pin it back. I even want to do that when they’re on my TV screen.

Mom? Is that you posting???

And then he changed the 69th CD to “Celine Dion’s Greatest Hits”, I hope.

Hey, the designer has apologizedfor that.

And now I have a name…:dubious:

When people use an abbreviation for something they’re using once (often in a post) and them write out the complete phrase, like “IANAL (I am not a lawyer)…”.

If you abbreviate it’s to make the text shorter not longer.

Write out an abbreviation you’re going to be using frequently in a document. Don’t do it when you’re using it once!!

kk

:smack: Yes. This is what happens when I copy/paste and don’t proof.

What about people who have a non-alphabetical system?

What if they’re attempting to convey that they’re not evil?

These don’t bug me nearly as much as special characters in names. If the one you want is taken, be more original. Don’t just slap an accented letter in the middle.

Oh hey, speaking of which…

I hate the acronym IANAL. It sounds like an advertisement instead of a disclaimer.

I do not think you read what Hal typed.

DIE! foamy

I suppose you meant doublescrew you, doubleyou.

… well they won’t be after an encounter with you, that’s for sure …
