Official Community Thread [2/9/2012] I hate pet peeves
Welcome to our twenty-fifth installment of the Ninersnation Community Thread. Here we can go into off-topics such as why does stubbing a toe hurt so much? Who swallows their gum? What is a hot dog made of? So now our front page football topics will be about football (strange concept, I know). First rule is, do a fist pump! Second rule is that site decorum is still on. No talk into religion, politics, or dirty dirty. No personal attacks, racism, or sexist remarks. Images are allowed, just be tasteful and pretend Gisele is sitting next to you.
This is going to be like the draft threads so we can come back to a discussion so that means REC THIS! That is a good rule of thumb in any situation. So lets have some fun here. The new topic of conversation: I hated the Super Bowl. I hate advertisements. I hate it when you chew with your mouth open. I hate calling people haters. I hate little girls screaming in distress when they are playing. I hate you. What do you hate? Pet peeves and other things that make you clench your fists and shake them in the air like a frustrated two year old.
This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors.

I hate Pet Peeves
Even though I have them, I hate PET PEEVES. I hate the term, I hate the word PEEVES. I would never name a pet PEEVES!

I hate
Olives, people who laugh at everything, people who laugh at nothing, poop jokes, other people’s children, reading menus in the near dark, probing questions, fish, Ben Roethlisberger, flossing, bread with the hard grains in them, people who do not understand that the slow lane is to drive slow, the middle is for speed limit or better, and fast lane is for passing or if they have explosive diarrhea, raisins, anyone that hates someone from highschool, pushing religion on another (even if that means atheism), corruption, and especially: birds.
So there’s this group of three scientists, and they want to see what would happen if you stopped up an elephant’s butt for a while, and then released the stopper. Yes, they wanted to do this. It’s science. So they get everything set up. They even train a monkey to pull out the stopper on command. With the experiment ready and the elephant properly stopped for the designated time, they took their positions. One scientist stood 25 yards away. Another stood 50 yards away, and the last stood 75 yards away. Finally, they had the monkey pull the stopper and – BOOM! It’s a poo explosion. The farthest scientist is disgusted, up to his ankles in sloppy elephant poop. The next scientist can barely control his gagging, up to his knees. The last is up to his waist and laughing hysterically. The first two can’t believe it. "What’s so funny?" they ask. "You’re up to your waist in poop."
The last scientist stops laughing long enough to say, "You should have seen the look on the monkey’s face!"

me too
not a fan of the directing and characters. Felt that the movie’s intensity masked some problems with the story and made it seem like it was better than it was.

Have to disagree with you here. The movie had warmth and soul and made us root for the little guy without being too sappy.
I stubbed my toe the other day. A few hours later, I got into bed and felt something rubbing between my toe and the sheet. I tried to kick it away, and it was still there. So I reached down, and discovered that it was my toenail. Sucker was hanging by a thread. New one is growing back as we speak.

I hate found footage movies that aren’t actually committed to the form. I’m looking at you, Cloverfield.
I also hate found footage movies that assume “realistic characters” means “rabid dickweeds” (I’m looking at you, Paranormal Activity) and that “realistic dialogue” means “raging bros” (I’m looking at you again, Cloverfield).
Also, I hate the movie Cloverfield.

I hate the month of February
No sports of relevance during this month. Sure, we get the Super Bowl to kick off the beginning of the month, but February sucks. The weather is cold, the sky is always grey, and there’s a stupid Hallmark Holiday smack dab in the middle of the month. February suck. I suppose there’s the NBA and NHL, but I need my NFL and MLB. February sucks. I also hate when grown men/women pronounce it FebUary. Another reason February sucks: it’s dumb spelling and name.
About the only thing that doesn’t suck about February is that March follows. Spring Training, the NFL Free Agency Period begins and March FREAKING Madness.

People who make lots of noise when they eat.
Slurping, chewing with your mouth open, crunching on cheerios, taking a slurpy noisy bite out of a juicy apple, you name it. Drives me nuts.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a random guy on the street or my mother, I suddenly have so much rage and hatred boiling inside of me, I could almost hit them straight in the face. Obviously I never have but man does it drive me nuts.
This might not translate well to English but whatever. Another one is when someone pisses you off and you really get mad at them and let them have it, and they say “Will you stop getting so offended?!”. I’m not offended, I’M PISSED OFF! THERE IS A DIFFERENCE GOD DAMMIT!…
Not sure you guys will get that second one but man that also drives me nuts.
I get it
and understand, especially people who insist on talking to you with food in their mouth, though it may be better than this visual I will never forget:
Years ago I was “slinging hash” at Denny’s in Waikiki. A guy comes in and orders a bowl of Ramen and proceeds to eat it by sucking up the noodles from the bowl to his mouth, which is bad enough but entirely forgettable. I came by and asked if everything was alright. Unfortunately, he had a big wad of food in his mouth which he regurgitated out into his hand, said everything’s fine thanks, then shoved that glutinous mess back into his mouth and continued his meal. Scarred me for life, lol.
Slurping ramen is the right way to eat it, I believe.

That does sound like a scarring experience
Haha I bet you were terrified.
Ramen is a problematic food as there is really no other way to eat it than to slurp it. I try and slurp as quietly as possible but it really is quite a challenge.
Yes, it is the only way to eat it
but it still bugs me anyway. I could never have worked at a ramen shop.
Well , there's another way to eat it and it's called a Spread , but onley a select few will know that ...!!

I hate
when you’re driving and someone runs through a stop sign so they can hurry up and pull out in front of you like they are in some rush, then proceed to plot along 10 mph under the speed limit. It bugs the crap out of me, if you’re in such a hurry that you can’t stop at that stop sign, then at least go the darn speed limit. I’ll ride your behind every time and you deserve it.
Sometimes I wish my car was outfitted with Mario Kart weapons.

What I hate is people who speed up really fast to pass you, pull right in front of you and hit the brakes! Or better yet, those who you try to pass because they are doing 20 under the limit flip you off, try to race you and then tailgate you for five miles because they gwot twere pwor wittle fewlings hwurt…

File this away under S for Stuff that has never happened to me. I’ve been in cars when it happened, but in those cases the drivers weren’t especially blameless.
Which reminds me of something else I hate: People who drive you around with no regard for the fact that they can kill you with their car. Getting into pass/brake fights with the jerk in the F150 is not acceptable behavior when I am in your car, and I will let you know.

Oh, yes, and people who use their car horn as an anger substitute. The horn is a tool to alert inattentive drivers to your position on the road. It is not a dickweed alarm. If you want to scream at dickweeds, use your voice. “But they can’t hear me if I do that!” The truth is, they’ll continue to be dickweeds whether or not they hear you.
Inattentive drivers on the other hand will hear your horn and think, “oh crap, I need to pay more attention.” That is, unless you cross the streams on that whole anger thing. In which case, they’ll probably just think, “Stop honking! I’m not a dickweed, you dickweed!” and fail to learn any lesson.
Using your horn responsibly makes better drivers. Using it irresponsibly makes drivers who don’t give a crap.

The Alaskan Moose
(Alces Gigas) is the largest deer on the planet. With a diet of grasses and aquatic plants, the moose consumes nearly 10,000 calories a day. This is close to 70 lbs of food a day. The typical moose weighs around 1,000 pounds, a bull may weigh up to 1,500 lbs. If you were to ride a moose, the fall off would be close to a 7ft drop. They frequent roadways to lick the salt for their sodium intake. According to survivor specialists, the moose is the most dangerous animal in the North. Even above polar bears. This is typically during mating season, otherwise they are fairly docile. Even so, honking a horn at one is not recommended. The moral of the story: Don’t (site-decorum) with moose.
I had that same thing happen!
I was visiting my sister for a summer in Anchorage and a bunch of us were in this tiny Ford Escort and we drove up to a Moose in the middle of the road. We honked at it and it didn’t even flinch. We were too afraid to go around it because it could have easily flipped the little Escort over. We waited in the road for a little over 5 minutes before it moved enough out of the way where we could drive around his rear.

I slept through one of my senior thesis classes one time. I dreamed that I was in my senior thesis class and woke up right at the end, which coincided with the end of class in my dream. I honestly believed I had been awake the whole time, until one of my friends told me that halfway through the class he tried to wake me up and the professor just looked at him and said, “Have a heart. Let the man sleep.”

It happened. I had done been awake for something like 39 hours by then, because I was a stupid college student who put off his work for so long that he had to pull that kind of marathon crap just to get it done on time. I only even went to the class to turn in the assignment, but I thought I had enough caffeine going to make it through anyway.
Basically, after spending a few minutes drifting and snapping myself back to attention and drifting and snapping myself back to attention and drifting and… you get it… my body was just so tired that it constructed a dream that I would accept without question as reality.
I remember another time I fell asleep in the middle of lecture. 300 person lecture hall, full up. And I wake up in the middle of a different class, just as full. 300 people leaving, 300 people coming in, many of them having to walk over me to do it, and all of this in a cheap theater chair with no head support, and I slept through all of it and a lecture and a half.
I don’t do all-nighters anymore.

An ex girlfriend and I shared a dream once. We were at the grocery store and she wanted to get some garlic bread and she couldn’t remember what that red stuff they put on the top of it was called. I told her it was paprika. We discussed other items that we needed at home as well. The next day at work we were talking about our dreams and realized we basically shared the same dream. We were having a conversation with each other in our sleep and built a dream around it. We both had a habit of talking in our sleep.
A woman at work told us that meant we were soulmates and should just go get married. She cheated on me a few months later. That ended that. So much for soulmates!

My brother used to talk in his sleep. When I was awake for it, I would try to hold conversations with him. The best was when I would just ask him to repeat himself.
“(sleep mumble).”
“What?”
“(SLEEP mumble).”
“Still didn’t catch that.”
“(SLEEP MUMBLE).”
“Nope. One more time.”

happy times
I went to a minor league baseball game at the lower seats behind first base. T’was a beautiful day. It was then ruined by a group of small children and two parents that let them play like animals. They had played baseball themselves earlier. The most annoying was a blonde boy that had plans to grow up into a d-bag. Jumping and screaming, standing on his seat, hitting the other children. He was bragging about how he was better than everybody else at baseball. How he was best, his other friend was second, and a fatter one was third. Then he sneered at the smallest boy. Shy and quiet, my favorite of the gang. “You suck though, you couldn’t even get on base”. The shy boy hung his head in shame. Being a shy kid in my youth, I felt anger well up inside of me. I hated this little jerk. I wished something horrible upon him.
Divine intervention, the power of my mind, karma… a miracle occured. As the players warmed their arms in between innings, the third baseman saved the day. He rifled a throw that got away from him… and the first baseman.
It was like slow motion to me as I saw the ball come straight for Blondie. Could I have pushed him out of the way? Swat the ball down? Perhaps. But my hands rested on my lap. The ball struck the kid down like a bolt from Zeus himself. The cries filled the air like a sweet melody. The first baseman rushed to his aid. Apologized. And tried to calm the boy by promising that he could keep the baseball. The mother told him that it was his birthday. It was hardly serious. The other kids laughed at Blondie, including Shy Guy.
My brother-in-law noticed the ear to ear grin on my face and accused me of being a monster. When I need a laugh, I think back.
Parenting runs strong with this one ...!!

That small, shy, and quiet boy was me too. I also sucked at baseball and the only way I could get on base was to either get walked or hit by a pitch. That story made me smile. I’m going to hell with ya, wags.
