When your favourite band for 15 years pulls out something like this:
Ewwwwwwwwwwww.
The word "acknowledge". I can never remember how it's written. Stupid word.
I always misspell succesful. I think maybe I have an issue there.
God dammit, Apple. What do you want from me? Do you want me to be honest? Do you want me to lie? WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!?

^ I really hope that's the marks of some twisted sense of humor, because the alternative is quite horrifying...
I'm sure all Generation X and Generation Y gamers will be able to relate to this. Having no save feature while having to use passwords, or not having enough memory cards or memory in your memory cards. (Or not having memory cards at all.)
Hey bro, all the more reason to collect those warp whistles and fire-flowers, power through it, AMIRITE?
I forgot to mention that this is the part of small talk that I hate the most, especially at family gatherings. I sometimes hate talking about myself, especially in large groups. It's kind of why I'm not into socializing in large groups anymore. When the small-talk goes into my personal life to people that aren't exactly close friends or people that I'm blatantly willing to share this information with, or from people I don't even speak to that much or at all, it comes across as very nosy and intrusive. I feel like the word caring is used to cover the word nosy in that case.
Even if I was a millionaire, I still wouldn't feel interested in talking about myself at family gatherings or church for that matter. (Not that I'm still going, but people in church can be VERY nosy. I fucking HATE it.)
Another thing I hate is when people think being quiet means that I'm arrogant or rude. Insecure, timid, and shy? Sure, not all quiet people are that way, but even I can accept that. But being quiet definitely doesn't always indicate rude and arrogant behavior.
There is a HUGE difference between being quiet and ignoring somebody. Just because I'm not really into talking sometimes doesn't mean that I'm ignoring you.
I also HATE the idea that silence is also assumed to mean the following.
I completely understand. - NO. It is possible to not understand something and ALSO NOT KNOW WHAT TO ASK FOR.
I don't need any help. - NO. Even though I can see why that would be in some cases, it doesn't always mean that. It is still possible to not really know what exactly it is you want to ask help for.
I don't need people. - NO. And this ties into people thinking that lone wolves act as if they never need people. That is far from the truth. I'm just VERY SELECTIVE with who I chose to spend time with. That doesn't mean I'm being stuck up or rude. I hate how being selective can come across as pomposity.
I hate people, and I hate being around them. - NO. Unless you have actual proof of that, it's very unfair and uncalled for to assume what a quiet person is thinking.
It's also annoying that people get bothered over not knowing what the other person is thinking. Why should they even care? Unless they're being blatantly ignored and given a rude attitude, it shouldn't even be a concern.
And then there's the part when people assume that quiet people are bored, upset, angry, or depressed. Again, that's not always the case.
I get that's life and all, but it really sucks to see how quiet people and loners can get terribly misunderstood in real life. I also can't stand it when people try to pry a conversation out of you. I know it's just me, but I can't imagine that being better than awkward silence. Awkward conversations are FAR WORSE.

Yep I agree with all of that. I have a friend - well probably my closest friend who sometimes always asks 'if I'm ok' almost like every 15 mins and also thinks she knows what I am thinking - usually always wrong. Needless to say I have a very love/hate friendship with her!.
Anyways this week I have has a work health assessment where everything is ok but my BMI is 30 which I am a bit miserable about as I do exercise regularly. The doctor at the assessment advised that I should cut down on carbs and cut out bread!. Bread! I love bread!!! . Also this week finally went to the dentist after 100 years for a check up and a deep clean, my gums are now throbbing!!!
9 out of 11 designs reviewed and released to manufacturing this week by ME. What is everyone else fucking doing?? I'm taking a weekend. "screw you guys, I'm goin' home!"
I've been pretty dam unproductive this week. I'm going to get myself laid off if I don't watch it. Well, that wouldn't be such a bad thing. My severance would be something crazy like 9 months pay.
Oh hey I got another one that relates to NIN
Ok so about the end of May this year,I was up for a battle of the bands,and I was going to do a NIN set with these songs
HLAH
Terrible Lie
THTF
The Day The World Went Away
Hurt
In This Twilight
my school thought that HLAH Terrible Lie THTF and Hurt was too inappropriate.
I managed to get Hurt back,but get this..........they let me play this instead
March of the Pigs
Eraser
The Day The World Went Away
The Frail
The Downward Spiral
Hurt
In This Twilight
Not a problem with any of those songs
I don't know. I have very mixed feelings on this because some jokes have to be stupid in order to be funny. I won't argue that point. However, at the same time, some stupid things would do nothing but give you misery and pain. That's why it strikes such a nerve with me because it reminds me of the kinds of people that use YOLO as an excuse to be a douches 24/7/365. And what if you do something so stupid that it costs you an arm or leg? (Metaphorically and/or literally.) You can't just magically turn back the hands of time and make it all better again if the said stupid thing fucked you up way beyond recognition and commission. And you might not even live a full life if it kills you. Some stupid things really are a suicide mission to start with.
And what in the fucking, fuck? Does smart equal boring and sad? For shame. (I just wanted to let that out. Don't get me wrong though as I can still see the humor in it. I'm just referring to it in the context of serious matters too.)

This was going to go to The Drunk Tank however, I'm not that drunk any more…
Went to a house party with my roommate and it turned out that most of the girls there were 18 and since I'm older (24) I didn't feel quite right about hitting on any of them. Plus while I was was in my drunken state, I was extremely pissed off at the 3 girls keeping the only bathroom to themselves for a solid 15 minutes even after pounding on the door. Well, you could say my buzz (or what have you) was gone by 1230 this evening (morning) and I left the party early to try to make it to my favorite bar but they were closed by 130! Even though their sign says 2am is closing time. Now I understand that it could be a slow night but still… Anyway, I'm a little pissed off that I didn't have a good night out and I know it's selfish as hell but still, I was told this was going to be a really super hype party.
I should have stayed in and watched porn or tried to contact a few other people to go to the club with me.
THIS, THIS PISSES ME OFF.

HE/SHE OPENLY ADMITS TO RUNNING A TICKET RESALE BUSINESS......*UGH*
I fucking hate dickheads like this. I've bought tickets on Craigslist before for events, and they've been for face value LIKE THEY SHOULD BE. I've sold tix before to a show, same thing, face value.
"I am unwilling to negotiate on the price so please reply only if you are ready to buy."
Really? Fuck you, you shit-rat. $175 apiece? Fuck you. Get a real job.
Songs like immortality, nothingman, to me sound like they're coming from the same place that this is.. It's not so much that they're similar in their
structure or delivery..
If that makes sense. In any case, yeah, I dig it. I've always like PJ's slower more ballad oriented side anyway.
I know I'm very late in responding to this, but it also occurred to me that when it comes to video sharing websites and Internet forums, one of the biggest rules of thumb would be that you'd have to be at least 18 years of age and/or have graduated high school. From the looks of it, most people usually can't stand it when people 17 and under use Internet forums and video sharing sites, or just see that as them asking for trouble. (This also includes people that haven't even graduated high school yet.) Ages 18 and up seems to be generally acceptable for those two types of sites as far as the youngest acceptable ages go, even though most forums make leeway for 13+ users. I just read YouTube does that too, but most, or even all users would have only people ages 18 and up making and uploading videos.
And to add to what else I've wanted to say. This doesn't really set me off, but it is just a little bit annoying. When people complain about a school or a workplace being too quiet, or when people actually say how it's quiet. Well, of course it's quiet. That's what happens when people don't speak.

Busy looking for excuses why things don't work the way they should although I am the one to blame myself. Mainly those excuses don't matter anyway.
I hate being gassy and need to fart every five minutes, but I'm at the office and that is unacceptable in modern society so I go to the bathroom a lot and the dudes in the cubicles I pass by look at me funny. Fuck you, delicious Chipotle vegetarian sofritas burrito bowl.
This may or may not be happening to me right now as I type this.
I don't think it's as simple as: "Drivers hate pedestrians when they are driving, and pedestrians hate drivers when they're walking."
1. As pedestrian: I don't like it when a driver expects me to go first. Flesh and blood are not going to win against a car/van/bus/whatever.
2. As a driver: Jaywalkers that jaywalk in places and ways they should never do while taking their sweet time, especially when they act all entitled to road. Even waiting on the road sounds/looks like a shitty idea to me. What if you get hit? (Which is why I do my best to not do that.)
3. Oh, and this has nothing to do with driving and crossing the street, but it still has to do with walking: When it comes to walking and you're in an area that's not to crowded or stuffy, I find it kind of awkward and a little bit annoying when people don't give at least 2 to 3 feet of space away from me when walking. I don't get that either, and I'd rather not run the risk of bumping into somebody. (Since there are people out there crazy enough to get pissed off and/or try to smash your face in for it. It would still annoy me, but not drive me that crazy.)
