What's your pet peeve in RL?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Company Christmas party today, I really don't want to go. It's going to be a bunch of the same people circle-jerking themselves and of course, the little people who actually have to show up to work and do their jobs won't even be able to park their cars because all of the people who are there not doing their job will hog up the damn parking lot.

Free food and a dunk tank? How about a bonus check for two loyal years of service?

It's trickle-down appreciation. It works just like trickle-down economics. It doesn't.

So glad I don't have to deal with company Christmas parties. They just give me a nice Christmas bonus and everyone's happy.

I would be more sympathetic if the complaints were directed to the publisher that's supposed to do the publishing or Index Corp. (which owns Atlus) rather than pissed out on US gamers every single time there's a game announcement. Its not our problem, its not Atlus USA's problem and reminding us does not do anything but turn you into a broken record.

Just sayin'.

Problem is is that making noise at Atlus USA is the only way that the EU fanbase can even be heard by Atlus. Atlus games have been published by the below in the past:

KOEi
Square-Enix
Zen United
Ghostlight (actually pretty respected since they communicate with the fanbse unlike the others)
Nintendo of Europe

There is also the Persona Europe Facebook page but that is basically nothing more than a page used by Atlus employees to post spoiler videos, spoiler screenshots and US only things to piss off the EU playerbase. Needless to say it's not very popular but at least it is some kind of Atlus mouthpiece even if they never respond to people's comments.

Out of all of those, only Ghostlight, a third party publisher, actually communicates with the playerbase, but Atlus itself does not communicate with them, so any complaints that Atlus needs to hear tend to fall upon deaf ears because Ghostlight literally can't communicate this information to Atlus. Complaining to Atlus USA is the only way to be heard because there is quite literally no other option for the EU playerbase to get their voices heard by someone who might actually be in some way maybe, perhaps affiliated with, but probably not employed by Atlus.

Chelmsley wood pensioner died following 'gross failures' at Birmingham hospital - Birmingham Mail

My hospital people. I can't believe I only just found this out.
I looked at the title and thought "hmmmm how did that happen you test with litmus paper and send them to x-ray"

It says there were two failings, yes litmus paper and an x-ray. I'm disgusted with this article.
Somebody lazy makes me and my colleagues look bad once again. This stuff shouldnt happen we have protocols to follow so things like this don't happen.

When dealing with life and death in medicine its understandable that accidents and mistakes happen. Something like this though, I'm lost for words.

Peeve: When an adorable cat, walks up to you, purrs. You go "D'aww." it climbs on you, purrs some more, nuzzles you then rips ass and walks out the damn room.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

lmao, My cat Tibby would be too proud to let one go in public.
He did it once when he was having cuddles with my friend but in his defence she more than likely was squeezing his middle a little bit.
I think your cat may be evil, sleep with one eye open lol.

I hate when my phone chirps once and dies. Gee, thanks for the warning.

Remember when phones used to give that annoying "low battery" beep for like three hours? Yeah, not anymore.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

It's even better on the iPhone, you just get a low battery pop up on the screen and no beep.

When someone parks in your god damn parking space. I HATE THIS. Where else do you expect me to put my car you prick? The parking space isn't private so I can't really bitch, it's more of a courtesy thing not to park your damn Hummer in FRONT OF SOMEONE'S HOUSE. It's not that the car is IN my spot. But it is parked in the spot that blocks me from getting into my god damn driveway. So I am now currently sitting outside waiting for a response from this door I just knocked on while using my iPhone to report this. Good day! Good freaking day.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Finally think I've figured out where all this loneliness I keep talking about is coming from. I was talking here about how wanting to play Dota 2 because a friend gave me a pass to play. And he seems to enjoy it. I tried it a couple of times and, while I can see why someone would like it, I just don't think I would enjoy playing competitively like that as a hobby. I couldn't get into the whole eSport thing.

So instead, I wish I had opportunities to play cooperatively with other players. Recently bought Torchlight II because a couple of old friends from Final Fantasy XI play it. But they are way ahead of me and told me to start playing by myself first to level up and catch up to a point I can play with them at. But playing by myself first is the opposite of what I'm looking for. That is, the opportunity to enjoy video games with friends.

Unfortunately, it seems the games I like the most I actually like playing by myself. Games I can tailor to my needs. Customize the experience to suit me. Even if games have multiplayer like Pokemon, or Mass Effect, or Kid Icarus: Uprising, I hardly do the multiplayer stuff. And I certainly wouldn't commit to online tournaments of any sort.

Maybe I should just bite the bullet and join a PvE MMORPG again. I think that's where a lot of my "I miss Final Fantasy XI" sentiments are coming from.

Report the car as abandoned to the police. It's what I did to get a car towed that was blocking the drive of a disabled neighbour.

My peeve is why the h3!! I havent been playing with Emulators sooner.
I have my original games in their boxes by the pc just in case the police turn up at my door. I know i'd be one of those unlucky ones that get done for terrorism charges when in fact I was playing mario cart.

There is 3 games I dont own, FFIII, FFIV and Radiant Historia. The 3rd game I'd gladly do prison time for.

I'm only 31, I shouldn't be waking up this way every day.

Maybe an issue with your mattress or the position in which you sleep?
