Pet Hates thread

My Asian friends on Facebook...

Im sorry to generalize like this but they all do it.

As soon as a superhero film is RUMOURED (Not even announced!!) They all immediately hop onto Facebook to like 20 god damn pages on the film. STOP IT! They also do this with sport

"Rakitic joins Barcelona" and queue 20 people hopping on the bandwagon and liking his page. YOU NEVER EVEN HEARD OF HIM 10 MINUTES AGO YOU SOULLESS GLORY HUNTING IDIOTS!! STOP THINKING YOU KNOW EVEN THE SLIGHTEST THING ABOUT FOOTBALL WHEN THE ODDS ARE YOU CANT EVEN NAME BARCELONA'S STADIUM!!

*passes out*
:))) this is unbelievably true

You are an angel amongst men.
 
People who think "no offense" will automatically negate all the insults dished out prior to these two words.

This is so true.

Also, the classic 'I'm not racist, but...' delivered by some insanely vintage racist remarks.

Which would be me. :sigh:

However, like [MENTION=136108]Donal Cozzie[/MENTION], I will continue. :D
 
I hate the perception of Western summer fashion for women. It is horrifying and absurd.

The styles are horrible and the colours simply suck!

I don't like wearing T-shirts. I don't wear sleeveless tops (I can compromise with half-sleeves but I'd rather not wear them). I prefer long/3-quarter sleeves, with structure to my shirt - decent fitting, fall etc. You won't find any of that in colours other than black, navy, white, camouflage green or beige.

I'm not a grandma, for cryin' out loud! :110:

I had a coworker who said "Don't take this the wrong way, but..."

Usually what followed could only be taken the "wrong way."
 
You may want to tell your coworker that "Back off! I'm married".

Good one Shah Sb, you're improving on the wise crack front ;)

Actually he'd say something offensive about people's looks, faith, nationality etc.

You should tell him that is your pet hate and he will back off and realize he's wrong. Your the his former boss, So I am sure he has some fear left in him.
 
I just noticed with the no offense thing - I'm converting people here! [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] spelt "offense" with an "s". :D
 
I'm going to become a pet hate myself soon for some people (read: [MENTION=132385]Afridi96[/MENTION] and co.) here. :D
 
I switch between offence and offense randomly and unknowingly, both make sense to me but generally, I prefer American spellings such as color etc.
 
That reminds me, haven't played in ages but conceding a 90 minute goal on Fifa :livid
 
People who don't respect limited overs cricket. I despise Test cricket snobbery.

I was not, nor am I now, anyone's boss.

I would like to be, of course. Order people around, harass them, be a jerk in general. Then I can be on other people's pet hates lists.
 
Limited overs cricket is limited fun. While test cricket is unlimited fun. You get to see your favorite batsmen and bowlers batting and bowling for longer hours then limited overs game. How is that not fun?

Man you're cool. :D

Easily my favorite on this forum.
 
New Pet Hate:

Describing all these smilies to [MENTION=132385]Afridi96[/MENTION].

Kidding. ;-)

Thing, its not about fun. Its about giving respect. Limited Overs is as much cricket as Tests are.

Nothing wrong in preferring one format over the others but that doesn't mean they are inferior or not real cricket and shouldn't be taken seriously.
 
^ I think League cricket is not real cricket. But whatever is played internationally is well worth the title of being cricket.
 
Yes league cricket cannot be compared to international cricket.

Do you live in America? When I went there last summer (in the midwest), it really seemed that the preferred uniform for girls was: flip flops, white shorts, ugly tan and mismatched darker than the short tank top. I hated it too. Maybe it's not like that in New York and SoCal but, from my experience, people dress like rags in north america.

Who here actually cares about others exams. Stop acting like you care how a random poster performed in his or her exam. You don't care. Why do you ask? I know why you ask. Because then that same person will ask you because they feel obliged to and then you can bore random people on the forum about it too. And so the vicious cycle continues. Like giving gifts. Don't get me started on gifts.

That was brutally honest, I love it. Please get started on gifts.

1000000% true! :110:
 
People who are claiming that Algeria have qualified for the second round because its Ramadan time and God has blessed them.

They have qualified because they have played good football and they will crash out vs Germany in Ramadan, which will debunk these absurd claims. Not referring to anyone on this forum, but a few people around me in real have come up with this emotional fairytale.

Reading this has depressed me.....

If anything thats insulting to the players. It implies they cant win without divine help. I really dont like people who try to find hidden messages and meanings where there are none
 
Yes it is annoyingly depressing. If God grants Muslims sports team divine help in Ramadan, I wonder why we lost the World T20 2007 final to India.
 
^^^^ What are you talking abt? ofcourse we had help. Misbah started smashing them with divine help but in that moment the devil came to misbah and told him two things.

1.try to scoop it and you would get out but i promise you would be the captain in all three formats and would play for a long time.

2. Play easily and win it for them and you would retire here and now.

Needless to say misbah chose the devil and thus is pure evil as he rejected the divine help. :P :P :P

On a lighter note i personally believe in " Allah helps those who help themselves". You need effort for divine help to be complete.
 
People that always try and have a go at Religion or people who they think are 'considered' to be 'Religious' no matter what :facepalm:
 
[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION].

He never quotes you when replying to a message. It can be irritating....

Don't remind me of the scoop. Couldn't believe it. :facepalm:
 
Is it just me or was the whole girlfriend and wives celebrating with the players at the end of the World Cup just completely uncalled for?

If I was a player that had just won a world cup, I would want to be celebrating with my team mates and having a chat with the opposition afterwards.

Annoying girlfriends and wives trying to come in and steal the spotlight with cheesy kisses and hugs.

And before you all start - yes I do realise they have supported the players throughout most of their careers etc etc but it was still so damn annoying to watch.

Massive pet hate.

I am guessing [MENTION=136108]Donal Cozzie[/MENTION] will also agree with me here and a few others here, but I am also ready to cop a lot of hate in return for it.

I normally hate this stuff but I didnt really mind it. I guess the players would've wanted their families to experience the moment too.

Girls who act dumb because they think it's cute.

Girls who talk in baby voices and have never really matured enough because they think it's cute.

Girls posting pouting selfies because they think it somehow makes them more attractive and does not make them look like a fish gasping for water. Idiots.

Selfies in the mirror actually do make you look cuter to yourself. Of course, if people understood that, they could just reverse normal images and it would achieve the same effect. In fact, someone should make an Instagram where the Instagram filter is replaced by all pictures being reversed.

I don't hate selfies as much as I hate the pouting and the desire to have your head stuck to your friends heads as if you are all Siamese triplets.

Karen and 45 people like this

"OMG stunnin hun"
"U rock babez"
"So cute gurl"

Or when someone puts up an attention seeking status on facebook

"Worst day of my life :( "
10 people like this

"OMG wats rong mate"
"Dont wanna talk about it"

THEN WHY DID YOU PUT IT UP ON FACEBOOK!!! :livid:

This next one might be controversial but I'm gonna say it.

I condemn Israel's atrocious acts in Palestine and I firmly believe Palestine should be free. But people changing their avatar to a Palestinian flag is just cringe-worthy. Do you really think the Israelis care??? Newsflash they dont. Boycott Israeli goods if you feel strongly about it. Its funny because all of them have Intel powered laptops so they're actually giving Israel money.

And kids who get all the flashiest gadgets and crap irritates the hell out of me. Why would an 8 year old need an iPad or a brand new console?? Ugh I need a drink

Oh wait one more.

Anyone who when watching the world cup referred to another country as "we" needs to be dragged through the streets and then each limb attached to a different horse and then said horses set off in each different direction until they are ripped apart like Brazil's defence. Seriously its pathetic. You're not Argentinian/Brazilian/German. Deal with it

That's the result of spending a lifetime of idealizing Angelina Jolie's cheekbones.

Agreed.:))

By the way, the highlighted part has become very common. Computer has become the cornerstone of our life, sadly.

Its not that they're bad. Hell when I was younger we had a PS2 and loads of games for it and a family desktop computer, but these days parents just shove their kids in front of a screen and leave them there.Internet use should be restricted and limited for kids because they dont need it lol. Send them over to a friends house or something. if they're bored.

I mean I've seen dozens of 7 year olds on Facebook for christs sake in my local library. Its ludicrous. Online games , especially grand theft auto V back when I used to play it, are riddled with 8 year olds playing with no supervision and they even have microphones for christs sake! Why would he need a microphone :facepalm: They're exposed to so much crap on the internet these days and parents dont seem to care.

Kids arent kids anymore. They're just teenagers except really small and with high pitched voices. Its a shame really.
