Forgive the spam, but Gretin, you are one of the most awesome guys I've ever met. Really, it's so rare to hear a guy have such a respectable opinion... Kudos to you, sir!

What pisses Havoc off...

Hm... Havoc is easily pissed off by pouchers, for obvious reasons. Never let Havoc catch you with a tiger skin folks, you won't live to tell the tale!

Havoc also hates stupidity, it's the second thing on the list. Sometimes Havoc wonders if he is getting smarter, or if the world is getting stupider and then he realizes once again that it's the latter.

KIDS! Nuf said... Havoc hates kids... the little buggers should burn in hell, except that there is not hell which brings us to the next point we all know of Havoc:

Religion! Havoc hates religion, a fairly known fact by now.

And last but not least, Havoc hates people that talk about themselfs in third person. So I shall now stop doing that :P.
What annoys me... people who talk in the third person ...

That is also a thing that irritates me. I don't have a girlfriend as such, but I still get annoyed about the way heaps of girls "advertise" their bodies.
I agree. I see some of that going on at my school, it used to be done by this one girl who's an emo (although she can be nice at times), and she just flaunted her breasts at the other guys who jumped right on the chance.

:
you hear heaps of people saying about how "hot" that person there is, but you never hear anybody saying how that person has a cool personality or anything like that. It's the heart that counts, not the body!
True true. There's plenty of attractvie girls at my school, many of whom are quite friendly people, yet nobody talks about their personality, just about how attractive they are.

It also p**ses me off how at my school, half of the other boys will nag and nag and nag about 'which girl you like the most' meaning it in a relationship way and not friendship, and even if there in't particularly anyone who I like in that way, they keep going on until i just randomly say a name, then they start going round like 6 year olds going 'ooh, you fancy so-and-so', just like slaveless said earlier. Its just annoying how immature a lot of people who I know are.

What about when people talk in thrid person... About somone else

Havoc like to cook. Havoc eats pancakes with chocolate sauce. Meow...

Anyways, i really hate boys who can't leave me alone... I meet guys all over the net, and even when i don't wanna talk to them, they keep messaging me. SO i have to block them...
I also hate trashy-looking girls. Girls that use their body for attention, and who are usually snobs.
I also hate jalous girl that can't take it when you get more attention from the boys than them. it happened to my sister once, she was out to a club with her friend. They were both looking really good and stuff, and there werent so many at that club. Some boys and a few girl, but my sister and her friend got all the boys' attention, and after some time, the girl decided they wanted to go at have a fight with my sister and friend... My sister left right away, since she doen't like fighting. Grrr, i hate girls like that.

Aww, thanks. But, that's impossible. You've never met me!



Sorry, couldn't resist


Anyway, on topic, I have a few other things that annoy me...
One would be people who always say, "I know!" whenever you try to tell them something, even when it's obvious they didn't already know. Or when you ask them to do something and they're like, "I was going to!" Maybe it's true sometimes, but at other times it's pretty obvious that it's not. And people like that are really hard to teach, too!

Also people who do "nice" things to or for you, but then tell you that you have to do something nice in return. I mean, in most cases I would normally want to do something in return anyway, but when people are like that, it seems more like it's "I'm going to do this for you so you do something else for me" than "I'm going to do you a favour to be nice to you."

And yet another thing, people who don't take relationships seriously. People who get in relationships just for the sake of being in a relationship, or just for fun, or just as an image so they can say about it to all their friends really annoy me. I mean, it's good to have fun in relationships, but if that (or either of the other two reasons) is all there is to it, that's a pretty selfish reason, and I believe in relationships being selfless, not selfish.

And just one more, the way some people look on showing emotion as being synonymous with showing weakness. They make out that people who hide their emotions are real tough, while those who are more open are weak. I don't see what the big deal is about showing emotion.

Anyway, I think that's enough from me for now. Time to stop ranting and get back to taking over the w- I mean... uh... yeah, time to go.

What pisses me off? Well, morons.

I hate it how dumb a** people use defied logic against you. An example of stupid defied logic;

"How can I hit him? I was over here."

That was when my stupid a** brother hit me and then walked over to the tap to fetch a drink. He never got in trouble for that, NEVER.

"My 6 downloads at once arn't slowing him down on the shared net, it's the sh*t on his computer."

....

Exuse me sirs, i'm going to go kill my moronic family.

1. The Bible

3. Die-hard anime fans

4. When you have an itch like 5 inches into your ear that you can't possibly scratch

That really doesn't do anything to stop him anoying me by always calling me a nigger, never by my real name, massing downloads to slow me and my gaming down, calling me a pr*ck every time he walks past my room when ever I'm playing my cube just to really get under my skin, or always grabbing the family's 250 ml coke and taking it to his room and drinking it all for himself, same with the icecream. Does it really help putting myself into some insecure, greedy and selfish jerk's shoes sir?

I am saying you are sounding kind of inward, and perhaps you should try thinking about others in your life. I am not saying you are a sanctimonious bastard or anything, I am saying that taking it from his point of view, inside his mind, might help solve some of your bitchiness. Which, I can see, you still haven't expressed.

Another thing that's a real bite in the crotch is Myspace. I absolutely loathe Myspace and most people who have an account there.

I mean, before Myspace at least teens had limitations to how they could congregate. Now they're all conspiring against us. To flood the net with forum-illiterate morons who find the act of typing a full sentance with proper grammar and punctuation laborious, somehow.

Rich? Why I oughtta...

People posting threads for sympahty. Damn, it gets on my nerves! because if they're "forced" to leave they can get:

a. Further sympathy for being 'thrown out' of a forum.
b. A huge gash in their self esteem.
c. Most people who do this come back within a week anyway.

But if they stay they have the "everyone loves me so I can spam and piss about as much as I want".

Grr. It's just for sodding attention! And it gets on my nerves!

So true, so true. It happens to me as well. And the last example is always the perfect comeback.
Well I've a few new things to add to my list that I forgot to put on last time, but they're fairly unsuprising or common hates:
1) Ignorant/predjucided people (homophobes, sexists, bigots, hypocrites etc.)
2) Overly loud, stupid people.
3) French lessons
4) This b!tch of a teacher at my school
5) A lot of people at my school
6) prank callers that are just plain dicks. Mind you, most are anyway.

What pisses Marco off? That's an easy one.

I hate it when you go to school and people automatically put you into a catagory. While everyone is talking about going to parties and getting wasted all the time, I am actually doing something in my life that is going to help me out. While people are doing things that make them feel "cool", I am getting recognized as an Honor Student, and I get to meet people who won a Nobel Prize, I am working on a film, and I get to meet an incredible writer.(Not to brag, sry) If only people would recognize me for being me instead of being a nerd.

And what's worse...they don't like Oddworld at my school!! How horrible!

Marco, you'll have that. The world is full of assholes, and anyone who listens to Randy Newman knows that all too well.

In highschool-
You'll have freshmen assholes, sophomore assholes, junior assholes, and senior assoles.

Same in college -
Freshmen assholes, sophomore assholes, junior assholes, and senior assoles.
And, chances are, when you graduate - you'll be working for an asshole.

So you have two options; bite the bullet, suck it up, and go in heads first with guns blazin'. Or, if you can't beat em, join em. Become an asshole yourself like the rest of us.
