I'm in your situation. We moved into an apartment a month ago and the apartment above and one over is like an African American ghetto family that assumes that since rap and hip-hop or whatever it's called is the epitome of mature, brilliant music artistry, the rest of the world wouldn't mind it if they share their music real loud with the bass cranked up. It hasn't been too bad, but last night they were playing their stereo all night until about 5am.
So here's something I find annoying. Go buy some donuts at Dunkin Donuts or a bucket at KFC and you'll see a label proudly proclaiming, "0% Trans Fat!" Most cattle don't know what trans fat is at all, so they're like, "Oh, trans fat must be bad. Glad that's not in this! Heck, I think I'll buy two boxes!" So the label is meant to ease the pseudo-health conscience of morons while buying some delicious, fried garbage food. Or like Hershey's syrup or whatever with a label that says, "A fat free food!" Well okay, so there's not technically any actual fat content, but hey, just forget about all the sugar content.
I'm not going to pretend that I don't buy junk food on occasion, and anything in moderation is fine. It just kills me that they try to appease people's guilt by making them believe that it's somehow not quite as unhealthy as they thought it would be. So moronic.

Dude, think about what you just said, and put it in frame of mind of this thread. Being obnoxious and screechy isn't going to get acceptance from anybody. It's distasteful for anyone to wear their sexuality on their sleeves, straight or gay. Prancing on a paper mache penis wearing a thong isn't going to convince anyone they're "normal," either. Skykid's talking about annoying gays just like we're talking about annoying people. Not gays in general. Let's just not have this good-natured thread devolve into that sort of thing.
