Pet peeves

[talikat]

How many Kardashians are there for fucks sake. I'm sure they're an invention of someone's mind. Just when I think I've worked it out another one pops up?

Too damn many and they keep breeding, so I guess that's another peeve of mine.

 

[ConnerH]

My pet peeve is paranormal investigators who claim to be all about science, but are the least scientific of all.

Holy shit. Listen, using a "creative filter" on your hastily-composed photograph doesn't make it "art." Nor does it make you creative. It just means you know how to mash the controls of your editing app and upload the results to the Literotica servers. Congratulations. (But not really—you suck.)

LOLOL!!

I know that feeling. Maybe I could fill in for him some time?

Hmmm. Coy. I know something you can fill in, sexy.

 

[Xerxes82]

People who complain about something after they've turned down an opportunity to fix it. Yes, please bitch about how you aren't getting enough hours at work just moments after refusing to pick up 2 hours for me later this week so I can get my dad to and from his doctor.

 

[Hornblende]

Airport designers who insist on making you walk through every inch of their overpriced 'designer' shopping area to get to the gates. If I want to shop then I'll make that choice myself. Fuckers.

National Public Radio ("NPR") is so completely biased that the so-called "journalists" who work there are nothing more than propagandists.

They are so utterly bent that it has become impossible to believe anything they report. They are absolutely clueless when it comes to understanding how the world works. They haven't got the slightest idea in hell how much taxation affects investment decisions. They haven't got the foggiest idea how the sclerotic thicket of regulation reduces the willingness of anyone to put capital at risk of effective expropriation by government bureaucrats. They don't comprehend why someone with capital would be discouraged from placing that capital at risk of expropriation by unscrupulous, ambulance-chasing tort lawyers.

Because of its horrific bias and outright proselytizing, NPR has completely wrecked its credibility on climate.

It's a bloody shame. I've listened to NPR for many decades. But it's gotten so awful that it's all I can do to keep from throwing the radio out the window.

As a result, I no longer believe anything I hear on NPR. It's worthless.

Smokers who think it's ok to throw their gross disgusting cigarette butts all over the ground. Everyone of you filthy pigs should be made to fucking eat every butt you throw down. No consideration whatsoever to anyone else

How about the ones that toss it out of their window when they are driving? From their mouth to their lungs it is ok, but not in the car!

Not to mention spitting and spitting out chewing gum on the pavement/sidewalk

People who have no original thoughts of their own. Like when someone posts a pet peeve and then two or more other people will chime in with something along the lines of, "Yeah, yeah, yeah. I totally agree with that. What she said."

Fucking losers. Why do you have to be so painfully transparent with your sycophantic ass-suckery? Here's an idea: Read what others have written and don't post a supportive comment. That's all. Just accept what was written and move on. Why is that so fucking hard to do?

"Calling all White Knights! All White Knights to the dock for pickup!"

 

[KarenB59]

People who talk a lot but don't say anything.

You're absolutely right those people are the pits.

 

[talikat]

People who constantly piss and moan about EVERYTHING!

I hate firing up a page to find that someone has posted an absolutely ENORMOUS image inline, like the size of Wales, and all the text is consequently tiny...

People who constantly piss and moan about EVERYTHING!

Show some compassion. People who piss and moan probably have gonorrhea.

I'm going to go over some punctuation principles, just so people in other countries know how we do it here in the USA.

• At the beginning of sentences, we capitalize the first letter.
• At the end of sentences, we add either a period (.), a question mark (?), or an exclamation mark (!). We then add a single space before beginning the next sentence.
• To add emphasis in writing, we use italics. We've used this for decades, ever since the invention of desktop publishing software brought the tools of bookmakers to the masses.
• To highlight a word, we might use boldface, or, if you're using a typewriter, underlining. (Hint: Use boldface.)
• Quoting someone else's words is best done with either double- or single-quotes ("double" or 'single'), with single quotes used when quoting inside a quotation. (Example: David said, "Elizabeth told me, 'That guy's an asshole' for not using the correct punctuation.")

On this website, all of the above typography is available in the editing tools, so there is zero fucking excuse for the following examples of butchery:

• I love those titties x maybe you can show me more x yes (What are the Xs for? Are they supposed to substitute for punctuation? No.)
• Wow those are some nice *titties* (Asterisks are not for adding emphasis.)
• i want to lick your titties (Note the lack of capitalization.)
• Titties are great.I love titties.I have to get more titties. (Remember what I said about spaces before sentences?)

No matter how many times you tell yourself that your dyslexia or your autism or your lack of fingers makes it hard for you to compose a correct fucking sentence, you should remember that Helen Keller lost both her sight and her hearing before her second birthday, and she managed to write better than all you idiots combined. Stop with the excuses and learn to write! Assholes.

 

[numeniusa]

I can't get past the first sentence there. I'm unable to infer from "just so people in other countries know how we do it here in the USA" anything other than that an assertion that your fellow countrymen and countrywomen here are all doing this correctly, and we savages from other nations are getting it all wrong.

Maybe that wasn't your intention, but that's how it reads to me.

There are also many posters here for whom English is not their first language. Some of them are amongst the most erudite and articulate posters I know.

 

[Hornblende]

I'm going to go over some behavioural principles, just so people know how we do it here in the rest of the world.

We don't patronise people, and we don't assume our country knows best.

That is all.

As an Indian who knows how to read and write properly I think people in the USA don't know very much about how to write or read properly. My first language isn't even English but I have met so many people here who have no concept of phonetics or grammar. And these are the people who speak English at home. Proper reading and writing is based on how much attention to detail people have and also on what their first language. If I asked others to write in Hindi and then bitched about their Hindi writing or reading skills then that would make me the asshole.

On another note I hate when people never actually want to have a discussion but instead just want to chew people's head off if they think differently. If you don't want to listen in the first place then don't have a damn discussion.

 

[tnman03]

As I write this I wonder how many different languages the three posters above me speak and write. I'm barely able to do survival Spanish and that's pretty poor.

English, Italian and (fairly weak) French, to answer your question!

Fucking drama.

Kitty - i had no idea English wasn't your first language. You communicate beautifully.

I have no Hindi writing skills.. I can't even imagine.
