When people on forums quote a textwall or large picture dump and reply with one or two words ("LOL", "awesome!" and "nice!" being some examples), or a short sentence, therefore forcing other people to scroll past a repeat of a giant post to read replies. Christ, that is annoying. Even worse when several people do it at once.

^ holy shit I was about to post exactly the same thing. congrats.

Best thing AVGN has ever done.

I also hate bad webdesign that´s annoying and hard to navigate. It especially puzzles me on sites that are still immensely popular. Hello MySpace!

Videobanners are a pain, too. Trying to read a very narrow column of text while ten pixels to the right stuff keeps exploding is massively irritating.

But that certainly isn´t number one of my list. That´s leaf blowers under my window every single morning. BROOOOOOOOOOOOOH

"The reason you can't print black text because your color cart is low is because:
The printer uses three colors of ink to make "near black." It uses 3 times as much ink as needed and the result is not real black. Print in grayscale to get real black.
Thanks. "

And the reason why printers stop printing even when there is still color left in the cartridges is that it´s needed for the printer heads to not dry out. ...or, that´s what Epson says

Either that, or to get you to spend another £30 on print cartridges, even when your current one is actually still half-full.

Ok this is my list and it can be long
Price gouging (especially when it happens to something I am interested in purchasing)
eBay serious just die already
Paypal
Stupid people
Bad drivers
Married people who swing (its like why the hell get married?)
Homewreckers
Teenagers (this recently added to the list as we keep getting ding dong ditched at 9pm when my kids are trying to sleep)
School age children who run around acting like idiots

Ok maybe it would just be better to ask what DOESN'T piss me off

[themachinist]

HELLO YOUVE JUST WON A FREEEE IPOD....!!

[TriggerHeartExelica]

kinda curious what you guys have against nigerians?

am i missing something here or what?

I'm guessing the great Prince Abu wtfever his name of Nigeria has not graced you with an email requesting your bank info so he can send you $250,000.

DRM/Copy protection in general.

The whole "need disc in drive thing" is ok, but it's a hassle for me if I get gaming ADD and rotate between several games. Thank god for No-CD cracks.

But DRM, oh boy, that's another story. Hate it! Especially the kind that disables your optical drives and limits the number of times you can install the game! But don't listen to me, listen to this guy:

Paypal + Gamestop. about a billion reasons for each.

I must be the only person in the world who isn't bothered by the DRM/"need disc in drive" situation. I wish people would stop fishing for weak reasons to clear their conscience.....

1) Drunks who pick fights at taverns.

2) Nerds who pick fights online.

3) Drunk nerds who pick fights anywhere.

thought of a proper one:

young chavvy scrotey asian kids who listen to shitty R'n'B - ON THEIR MOBILE PHONE - which is around their neck, with the volume as loud as it will go, annoying anyone within 20 yards with the terrible tinny noise. seriously cunts, go do one

It seems that it is always the people with the absolute worst taste in music, who want to share it with everyone around them.

...I would go so far as to say this tends to be true of the people with the worst taste in pretty much anything.

Lolz.

Actually, although people are wise to this these days, I have an Aussie mate who got scammed out of a really expensive laptop. He was an idiot to be so trusting tho.

2) Nerds who pick fights online.

HA HA! That's the best - thread win!

[MathU]

Army nuts in first person shooters who can't get it through their tiny skulls that they're playing a GAME, and that realism is detrimental to fun. The first thing that goes through their mind on any subject is always whether or not something is realistic.

We have kids like that too, but they're mostly from south-european countries. God i hate them... and sometimes i have to work with them ^^"
thing is, even if it was actually GOOD music, it would still be rape for your ears.

another thing that pisses me off: i broke up with my g/f and dont know how the fuck i am supposed to come up with the rent all by myself when she moves out. =(

nice how she left you to sort the shit out. Not like ok we will live here for three months and declare were moving out and such so we have time to sort this.

Nah, it actually is something like you described. Only in a shorter timespan i guess. I'm still worried about the aftermath though.
Could use a new roommate, as getting a new flat is not a possibility.

this, minus them kids being asian.

Public transport, especially buses.
Last month I felt really under the weather and thought I'd take a ride instead of going on foot. So I went on the bus, soon to find myself accompied by some stinky bum. Judging by his smell, he must have given urine in his pants more than once... That was when I had to evacuate, and walk home, wasting money on the ticket.

Commercials for light beer. They're basically advertising the fact that they put nothing in to their beer. I can't imagine any other food/beverage company purposefully advertising that their product doesn't taste like anything.

Going to take this one-step further. I hate in real life when Cool, Nice, Awesome are used when I'm describing something. If you don't mean it, don't say it. If you were truly interested we'd probably have a few sentence dialogue at worst and not a one word response.

When people use k instead of Ok.

People driving while on cell-phones. Because we all know only 2% of the population can actually pay more attention to the road than the conversation while holding the phone to their ear.

People who dont use their signals when merging into lanes.
People who go slow in the left lane
People who ride your ass in the left lane you let them go only to pass them 1 mile down the road in the middle lane.

People only playing/buying games for trophies/achievements.

Make-up.

I think i'll stop there. Otherwise this list will be 10 pages of just me.

Sorry to hear that

I never understood light beer, either. Thankfully it´s nearly nonexistent in Germany. I´d much rather drink one good beer than two peewater ones.

people who dont feel the need to indicate forpedestrians becuase there not on the road. Ive been stood at the road trying to cross it only to step in front of cars who have not indicated that there turning in towards me.

im not an ESPa so fucking put your indicators on you fuck!
