What's your pet peeve in RL?

Nope, HP cartridges onry. And yeah but since I was having compatibility issues between my computer and my work computer (both of which were using Windows 7 and Word 2007 and yet my document wouldn't open up at work) I had no choice but to print at home. I agree most printers are total crap, even the expensive ones. I've never had a printer last more than a year.

Peeve Today: Slow walking old people.

After having some rather debilitating back problems, I am easy to forgive the elderly. Well, unless they are driving 50mph when the speed limit is 60mph and they are in the far left lane (U.S.).

It's when the able-bodied block travel lanes that pisses me off. I hate the ones who "Wizard of OZ" down the sidewalk or hallway. This is when a group of 2 (2 if they are a oversized load) or more people walk side by side as if arm in arm down the Yellow Brick Rd. taking up the entire walkway and are not considerate enough to fall into a pseudo-line when an oncoming walker approaches.

Karma !

A while back in one of the threads I took a mean swipe at the people with food allergies.
Recently dairy products are giving me stomach ache and wind very badly.
Karma is a bitch !
I better go start making a list of the bad things i've done.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Here we go.

So I get to work today (at the airport) and one of my buddies is outside having a cigarette where I get off the bus. No sooner do I step off the employee bus than he hits me with this bomb:

Friend: "Dude! You'll never guess who's here?"
Me: "Probably not, who?"
Friend: "Paulie fucking D"
Me: "Who? That dude from the Jersey Shore?"
Friend: "Yeah dude! He's right inside"
Me: "Cool. Where?"
Friend: "He's over eating in ________. Check it out"

Now... at this point I feel obligated to mention this to you guys. I fucking hate that show... and if I got my way, the whole lot of them would die in a horrible plane crash. However... my younger brother (god knows why) LOVES the show... and Paulie D is his favorite one. A few weeks ago my brother celebrated his 18th birthday, so I figure what better belated birthday gift than to get him an autograph from his B-List celebrity icon? Here's what happened next:

Me: "My brother loves that guy, I'll brb"
Friend: "No way! You're going up to him?"
Me: "It's not like it's Bruce Willis man... it's a Jersey Shore guy, calm down"

*I walk into the restaurant and right up to the table with Paulie and who I assume are his 2 managers/bodyguards*

Me: "Excuse me man. I don't mean to bug you while you're eating, but I have to head in to work in a second. I just wanted to know if I could get your autograph... you see my little brother thinks the world of you and watches your show religiously. It was just his birthday a few weeks back and he'd lose his shit if I were to get you t sign something for him. I promise I wont make it public that you're here. Would you do that for me?"
Paulie D: "I'm Eating, Go Away"
Me: Please? It'll only take a second and you'd make his whole birthday"
Paulie D's Manager-guy-thing: *Glares at me and shoes me away with a flick of his hand*
Me: "Real nice man..." *walks away*

So it turns out the guy is just as big an asshole in real life as he is on the show.

My goddanm twitches I get when angry peeve me off.
So does the face that i can't spell properly when angry >.<

Arghhhh * FACT

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

In High School I always gave the courteous "Excuse me" I'd do it two times. But people are too busy gossiping, then comes the good old fashioned shove. So many people got pissed. Then they'd rage and I'd tell them, "I asked you politely, two times. Not going for a third." They'd get that poker faced look like someone slapped them.

No. You just walked in while he's trying to eat. Big difference, long day of acting comes stress. I think he'd like to take a load off, sit down and have a nice meal instead of dealing with people who want his autograph for some shitty networked show for drama queens and hussies along with hipster-gangsters who want to look cool but at the same time retain that sense of dignity they "think" they have left. Don't waste your time with schmucks like him, if it were me I would've spit in his food and told him, "It's about to get real Jersey Shore up in this bitch."


I've had a similar experience with Michael Jordan. Guys a plain douchebag. Asked for his autograph since he showed up one time at a movie theatre I go to, I was amazed I was like "Holy shit it's Mike! The big dunk, as I call him." He was getting ready to leave and I kinda strolled up next to him real quick, his bodyguard like a fucking basketball "pick" blocked me as I tried moving past to get to him, he blew me off. Saw him at his own dining place like a week later, I was sitting a few tables down from him, walked over to his plate, spit in his food and got banned from the place. Told him. "That's for blowing me off, dickhead and tell your mexican buddies to make food the right way." He's a total dick. To think I wanted to be "Like Mike" when I was a kid. Big time actors like him need to bite the dust. Yeah, Michael Jordan uses Mexicans in his restraunts. The only reason why I didn't get my ass kicked, my friends begged him, like I watched them beg Mike as security threw me out of the place.

I love these lines. I personally take it in my humble interest in being a douche and breaking said links. If you see me coming and I can see you coming within 30 seconds of walking space and you don't "unlink" I'm plowing through your little mobius chain of friends and then giving you the "bird" as I walk off to my destination. Then again I am a total asshole to begin with, I hate the general public and how stupid they've become, my personal mannerisms toward the public, unless I am out with friends are baseline rude in terms of courtesy if it is not shown.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

As a classically trained actor... I pretty much feel the same way about most of that "reality" TV. I don't respect that form of entertainment.

FUCK THAT!! Anyone in this dipshit's place should remember the people who make them famous. Without people watching this moron's shitty TV show, this scum sucker wouldn't be anything more than just another douchebag in Jersey. It really gets me truly pissed off whenever I hear about some celebrity who treats people like this. Seinfeld is known treating people like this all the time.

Don't waste your time with schmucks like him, if it were me I would've spit in his food and told him, "It's about to get real Jersey Shore up in this bitch."

Yes, exactly... though I probably wouldn't spit in his food. There may be some kinda law you may be treading on there. But I'd sure as shit take out my phone and start recording what is going on. Youtube loves celebrities who act like this.

I've had a similar experience with Michael Jordan.

I am disappoint. I have always been a big MJ fan.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

No. You just walked in while he's trying to eat. Big difference, long day of acting comes stress 1. I think he'd like to take a load off, sit down and have a nice meal instead of dealing with people who want his autograph for some shitty networked show for drama queens and hussies along with hipster-gangsters who want to look cool but at the same time retain that sense of dignity they "think" they have left. 2

1: What acting does he do exactly? He's a reality TV star. The most acting he probably does is when he has to tell a woman he's "really into her".

2: I did mention that my brother watches this show, right? Which of those categories do you think he fits into exactly? Is he a Drama Queen, a Hussie or a Hipster-Gangster?

if it were me I would've spit in his food and told him, "It's about to get real Jersey Shore up in this bitch."

Oh yeah. That's exactly what I'm going to do while wearing my employee uniform... at work... in public... to a guy with 2 bodyguards. What was I thinking?

I've had a similar experience with Michael Jordan. Saw him at his own dining place like a week later, walked over to his plate, spit in his food and got banned from the place. Told him. "That's for blowing me off, dickhead and tell your mexican buddies to make food the right way."

No offense man. I don't know you so I'm not going to judge... but this sounds an awful lot like something that played over in your head as you left the restaurant after having a silent angry meal a few tables down from him... chewing your food angrily. You know... like one of those "Oh, I should have totally done that!" moments.

If you're walking up and spitting in the food of a washed up athlete who's only famous because of what he USED TO BE. You have a bigger problem than he does.

Weeeeelllllll....fine. I didn't spit in his food. I did however call him a douchebag. I just got told to leave, where as I then threw a napkin at him, where it then fell down miserably and hit the floor. You think I am out of my gourd to spit in a tall ass man's food? Let alone him being black? Fuck no. I was only trying to spice up the story a tad bit, but in reality MJ is a dick though. The only other actor I think I might ever seen and it was like a tenth of a second, I thought I saw Robin Williams at an i-Hop. Turned out it wasn't. Since I was going in to grab food and I guess when the car whizzed by me (and almost hit me) it screwed with my vision. But yeah I'd never cross the line, I am an asshole and will resort to name calling if need be to get my point across. Like I said, called him a douchebag where as then friends went over to table, "Please forgive him, he's not so rude" blah blah blah. I was told to leave where then said napkin throwing (or attempted) napkin throwing commenced.

You sound like just as much of a jerk as the people you're getting angry at peeps.

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Well, I am generally a nice person. I only get mad if you mess with me or push my friends around, that I can't tolerate. More or less I am just that quiet guy with the gameboy in the corner minding his own business. Not to mention when people see me they're like "Awwh, he's too nice." Since I "look" nice I suppose. I'm just that guy you don't pick on unless you want nerd rage. Years of being bullied and pent up nerd rage = Meltdown Imminent. I do remember one time where I did punch some guy in the face for trying to steal my lunch, my mother was sick and she got up to make me lunch. Some idiot kicked my chair out from under me and tried to make off with the goods. Nerd rage kicked in, tackled him, hit him like two times in the face, took my lunch and ran off like Zoidberg. Got called into the office maybe an hour later, kid was like "HE PUNCHED ME IN THE FACE." Principal: Any proof? Now mind you the principal knows how docile I am and she knows if people mess with me I will lash out violently if provoked. So I got off with just a 2 day detention and a day of ISS. Seemed fair to me.

If it helps you Slip, I had a very nice conversation with him when I met him. Of course, he was getting ready to play golf, which he probably loves more than basketball at this point, so the situation was favorable.

I'm not trying to call your bluff, man... but it doesn't help your case to walk into a forum as a brand new member and spew lies... even if your intention was to "spice up the story".

You think I am out of my gourd to spit in a tall ass man's food? Let alone him being black? Fuck no.

First of all, you didn't. Second of all... what exactly does him being black have to do with anything?
