PET PEEVES, TURN OFFS, AND OTHER THINGS THAT PISS YOU OFF.

I might respect you if you weren't such a jerkoff.

People who ask advice. Seriously...do you know of a single person that asks you for advice on something and then *takes* your advice? Or do they end doing what they were going to do anyway and then they wonder why they can't get a break in life...?

You should check out Mitsu's thread in the Moronic topic.

That's where I got the reminder for this pet peeve of mine, lol.

point still stands. anything particularly wrong with philanthropy?

I'm...pretty sure we're on two separate pages. Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

"Gina" has a boyfriend that beats her constantly and verbally abuses her. She comes to you and asks what should she do about her situation. The fact that she's even asking you something that should be obvious shows that she does not want out of her abusive relationship or is not ready to really move on. That's okay but not my problem. When she's really ready and has had enough, no force in this world will be able to stop her from leaving. Until that day comes, nothing I say will make a difference so I'm not gonna waste my time with it. When she's ready, she'll come to me and ask if she could stay with me until she gets on her feet, at which time I would be glad to have her.

I'm all for helping people but through my own personal experiences and from studying psychiatry, I've learned that you can't help people that don't really want it. All the person in my example wants is attention, just like the guy from that thread in the other forum. I don't waste my time on people like that. I'd rather help someone that truly needs it.

Not bragging but I happen to be blessed in my life, at this point in time. Occasionally people come to me asking for handouts and I never give it to them. My rule: never loan money to people that ask for it because it won't be a loan and you'll never get it back. I don't "loan", anyway. If, however, I see someone genuinely struggling, I give freely from my pocket because I know what it's like to be poor/broke/homeless because I've been there and I can recognize true need from greed/opportunists.

Hopefully I explained my point.

I didn't mean to come across as a moron, I just thought it was good advice.

Fat girls aren't fat, just unlike us they have to pay to make others not see the fat.

Fat bottomed girls make the rockin' world go round

You and I, my friend, are on the same wavelength here.

You mean you and Queen are on the same wavelength.

I only see one such topic.

ideally cut back on the slurping and smacking as well

BUT WHAT ABOUT MY YAKISOBAS :'(

A pet peeve of mine is people with stupid speech patterns. I have one friend who repeatedly says "THAT'S HOT" in a very loud voice whenever she approves of something. She recently changed it to "THAT'S HAT" when people said she sounded like Paris Hilton. An acquaintance of mine, much younger than me and still a very whiney, egotistical teenage girl, talks nonstop, and in that nonstop talking, she always finds ways of mentioning how 'hot' or 'sexy' her boyfriend (unfortunately, one of my best friends) is. When she's not saying that, she's always talking about 'banging' things. The rest of the time, she talks about herself, or tells stories she's already told you 3 times, and expects you to laugh like you've never heard them before, because she honestly forgets.

Egotistical people in general piss me off. Just knowing you're good at something and being an egotistical jerk off are two different things. The former is the case with a lot of people- if you're good, you know you're good. Generally, those people are humble. The latter... Eurgh. You're not baby jesus riding a unicorn, get over yourself.

The absolute biggest turn off I have is smoking. Smoking anything- weed, cigarettes, you name it. There's nothing more absolutely disgusting to me than the idea of smoke filling lungs. It's pretty much impossible for me to totally respect a smoker. That said, I have a bunch of friends who smoke, but I just won't hang out with them if they're going to light up.

General peeves in terms of women- ponytails. Not the style itself, just the sheer OVERABUNDANCE of them. Wearing your hair down is sexy ladies, let that be a lesson to you.
