Wow, that's pretty bad, do you know if it was damaged in transit or if you just got it from a bad distributor?

And I'm annoyed when you have that kinda bleh feeling, you know when you are just tired and kinda sleepy and wanna flop and sleep for hours on end

And -kisses Kayla's jaw and head gently- <3 I really hope they feel better soon <3 D:
It was the shipping and we ended up get a free replacement with a different shipping company and it showed up fine

What annoys me?

When regular topics get hijacked by the Paleo-Crowd
This topic is for what annoys us. Sometimes the things that annoy us relate to paleontology. Problem?

When I go for a hike but have to return five minutes later because I'm getting eaten alive by mosquitoes.

And I hate when people with minor issues start complaining as if they're being treated horribly, like when people with ginger hair are teased and they claim it's just as bad as racism, or when people claim to be discriminated against if someone disagrees with them.
Um.. have you ever been to a public school? When these people are getting completely shunned socially and often beaten up for it, I would say it is just as bad as racism, Murdock.

What also annoys me:

Not being able to say exactly what I want to to people who are infuriating or acting like idiots. That's always an annoying situation but one we have to deal with due to societal expectations.

I'm also annoyed by hardasses who can't understand jokes or friendly banter.

I'm annoyed by people who use the terms YOLO and SWAG (especially when they don't even know the actual meaning of SWAG)

And I hate when people with minor issues start complaining as if they're being treated horribly, like when people with ginger hair are teased and they claim it's just as bad as racism, or when people claim to be discriminated against if someone disagrees with them.
This. All of this, plus some other stuff that I wont say.

I live in the North Carolina, part of the "south" and along the bible belt. Things don't get much worse than here, but rarely are people completely shunned.

I'm black and came out as bi-sexual in middle school. Maybe 2 people out of the entire school had an issue with it, the rest praised me. Perhaps there are additional things about your personality if you completely shunned. Even our outcasts at my school had their own cliques, though that actually might be my doing. Despite the popular kids liking me, I preferred spending time with the "geeks" and "nerds" because those are the people really true at heart.

Well your school is better than mine or those I'm familiar with, Azrael.

Just saying it is a problem. It's beyond stupid, seriously, to chastise anyone for something as silly as hair color,but for whatever reason it is a real issue and shouldn't be put aside as insignificant.

And I don't even have red hair but, I can clearly see it's a problem.

I'm not saying it isn't, it is stupid. I never condoned bullying for any reason, be it clothes, hair color, sexuality or race. I had friends that belonged to each and every one. When I saw someone being bullied by someone else, I would intervene. Because it's stupid and because I had my own ways of intimidating people and if people had to be afraid of me for other people to have to avoid being put through that, so be it.

Sometimes it only really takes one person who's willing to take a chance, truthfully.

Forgive me if you feel like I've understated the issue of bullying, that wasn't my intention. Bullying is always wrong, and of course bullying someone for being ginger is wrong and I definitely don't mean to call it insignificant.

On the other hand, racism has caused immense problems, I really hope I don't sound harsh or like I'm saying bullying of ginger people, or people for any reason is ok, it's not, but it's still bullying. Compare that to racism which has caused millions of deaths, slavery, torture, rape, suicides and wars throughout history, and you can forgive me for saying they aren't on the same level.

And yes, I have been to public school, admittedly it's an English public school as opposed to Indiana so I don't know how it is where you are. But it was a public school, I've seen people beaten up for having ginger hair, but I've never seen someone getting punched around on par with a lynch mob who chase someone until they torture them, beat them and kill them for the color of their skin or their orientation or so on.

I likely should have phrased my post better, but I have had redheads where I live who have been bullied, and not even that badly, compare themselves to the situation of American slaves, or Jews under the Nazis, and that's what I hate and find downright offensive.

So forgive me if I've caused offense, and please don't mistake my post for condoning bullying or saying that discriminating due to hair color (or any reason) is ok, but I do stand by the original intent and what I meant in my post, that comparing the treatment gingers receive to the treatment that minorities such as black people or homosexuals have suffered throughout history is not right, and the difference in amount of suffering is immense

Now if I may suggest we end discussion of the topic here, I really don't want to start a flame war or any argument of any kind

On another subject I hate whoever has that incredibly noisy car in the local area that they feel the need to rev at sometime between 9 and 10 all the time.

I also hate people who listen to loud music in the night, my apartment is located in a spot where there are other buldings in almost every direction, so sound waves get stuck in the area of my porch, and many of my neighbours listen to loud music and they do it very late, not to count the most annoying events that can possibly happen on my Neighbourhood, CHILD PARTIES! >_< You are forced to hear that annoying animator shouting "Hey guys whoever grabs that ball first wins!", or "The first one to return with 100 Reais wins!", it annoys me, I mean, can't you speak in a little lower volume? Can't you give your son a party a bit sooner? Isn't he too young to stay up at 11 PM or more? >__<
