Ten Things That Piss Me Off

10) People who wait in line, but then don't know what to order/ask for at the counter. This makes me searingly mad. I may be impatient, but people - remember to look at the menu and decide what to order when you have time in the back of the line!

9) Couples who screw in the bathrooms of clubs. Granted, this may be a gay/lesbian thing, but seriously? There is not that much space in the bathroom and it smells like urine and vomit (or potpourri, if you are lucky). None of these smells makes me jizz my pants. Also, it makes more sense to head home or to a hotel room to treat your spouse/partner/fuck buddy to some oral sex than to immediately sex them up. You know, it's called anticipation?

8) Anime filler episodes. This was the real reason I stopped watching Bleach and Naruto. There are filler bits everywhere, with random story arcs in them to fill up the time before the animators decide on continuing the main storyline. A good anime is like Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. It gets the job done without having to use fillers to bulk up the episode content, and each episode brings something to the climax of the storyline. Unlike Bleach - where the Bounto storyline was shoehorned into it and you never see the characters or technologies again. (Except for the stupid new "plushies"...)

7) The Postal Service. Seriously. In Canada, our Postal services are unionized. This is like the death knell for everything, as the service is slower than getting bumfucked without lube, and it's expensive. How much you ask? For a less than 100 gram parcel within Canada, I usually pay $7 to $9. To the United States - a light parcel goes for around $3. You see what I complain about? This is why when I sell on ebay, I try to send by the cheapest services or use the UPS services.

6) Local Yarn Stores. There are 4 within walking distance to me. I know I don't look like the average knitter - but I do spend money in local yarn stores. However, I will not buy mohair or anything else expensive...

5) Fighting Games on the DS. Okay, seriously. We NEED a good fighter on this...this doesn't include Shonen's Jump's manga based game... I mean, seriously - the DS is a portable system - and that encourages competitions - so why not put something accessible to everyone on the DS? Like a clone of Smash Brothers? (I know there are a couple of homebrews out there, but the need is there to put games like that out - and I know a lot of people will buy it.)

4) Too accurate cosplaying. I love cosplaying, and I admire people who do the detailed work required to get a costume right down to the laces in the boots, but seriously. I know someone who spent over a $100 getting wigs and cutting them for a single costume. (It was Ichigo in Bleach, and he sort of failed - the wig was pretty bad.) Also, it is nigh impossible to get the hair for any anime character right without copious amounts of hair gel or hair dye!

3) My addiction to slurpees/icees. I can relate to the episode in which Bart mixes the slushies together, and gets high off of them. I need more of them! It's really expensive for a mixture of sugar and water and food colouring, but it's so good....

2) The fact that the president of our LGBTQA club thinks that I have a terrible grasp on spoken English. I know I stutter, and I have a hearing problem (I lost most of the upper/higher frequencies of my hearing, and deep voices tend to be louder for me). This does not mean that I do not want to use my words. I speak very infrequently in front of him, despite being the marketing manager for the club...

1) The fact that I'm antisocial. I rather be at home, blogging, cooking a good meal, or crafting than go out to have a social event. Having dinner with multiple friends makes me nervous that I might say something fucked up, or that I have to do something to save the dinner. Also, I'm paranoid about what people think about me, but personally, I don't care most of the time. I do things to push people away - I once used a book about serial murderers to scare people on the subway/bus.

A FEW INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS WHO ORDERS FROM THE SAME COMPANY RECIEVES THEIRS IN JUST A WEEK. Our postal service terrible. I mean, it takes 2 weeks to deliver the game to another city in a country, while it takes a week for it to arrive in some other part of the world? It's just BS.[/quote]

By international you mean like local (USA for instance) or like halfway across the fucking world (Asia and what not). Either way, two weeks is terrible, most of my stuff gets here in 4-5 days, depending on the shipper/shipping method.

In Europe and some parts of Asia.




Speaking of Postal services, I once ordered a pair of In-Ear-Earphones from Tokyo, Japan. The shipping cost was 10 bucks, but the package arrived at my house in exact 5 damn days. I was just speechless.
 
Ok, for starters I'm really surprised that farting isn't something that pisses you off.

Also you need to be more flexible, the reason why most people are anti-social is because they are looking for perfect people to socialize with. I for one has been doing that and I never found a friend yet till I decided to become flexible. Even though I have one or two friends in my life, I still believe that most people who I chat with are not really friendship material but I still get along with them. We are all different and most accept that.

There is over 9000 cliff hangers at the end of each episode but IIRC there is no fillers.

Que? I'm not that bitchy in real life, I promise. I'm anti-social because I find that I'm awesomely awkward in social situations and I prefer to spend time alone. I have a lot of not very close "friends", and I do get along with them. It's hard for me to open up (trust issues, hello?) and I find a lot of the people I talk to are interesting.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
