What's your pet peeve in RL?

My brother has cancer. Why can't anything ever be simple, boring, and drama-free...

Dunno what to say, other than hope he pulls through. Do you know what kind it is and if it can be removed?


@ BBQ: What the hell kind of retard are you shacked up with?! o_O first of all, even just starting ONE greasefire is awful and has the potential to destroy a building (ever see the myth busters episode on it? Seriously scary shit.) But you pluralized it so.... yeah that's unsettling. I hope you keep some baking soda nearby :/

Damn Kets, that totally sucks. Hugs.

My grandfather is having a surprise party for my mom's birthday tomorrow, so I'm here at his house. She has no idea I'm in town yet, so we're being sneaky. (I actually had a dream she showed up here and I bolted up the stairs to hide in the bedroom). Well, I was told he had wi-fi. He has this little wi-fi hotspot thingy that I have to have basically right next to me to get it to work, and even then I couldn't get on the internet, just connect to the network. So I'm currently using my iPhone's hotspot to handle my daily dose of internetting, but I had planned to play some WoW this weekend and that's not looking like it's going to be a worthwhile endeavor.

Though to be honest, I think once I get connected to the game, it should run fine. It's just getting connected that's the issue. Maybe I should have stayed at my dad's house.

Don't remember exactly what it's called, but it's in his upper neck and is apparently common to Chinese people because of something specific to our diet. 5-year survival rate is between 60 and 80 percent.

Bean sprouts maybe? Only thing that comes to mind as AFAIK it's a common thing and when I was watching CNN a while back it was listed in a special as the #2 worst thing to avoid (#1 being non-organic strawberries) because it just soaks up all pesticides and other chemicals in the ground like a sponge and there's just no removing that crap from it.


Sorry to hear that though, sounds like it's inoperable :/


You never know though, it's not uncommon for people to be given X amount of time to live and surpass it.

Never mind, not in the neck. More like in the Nasal cavity. This is what they think he has.

What is nasopharyngeal cancer?

And the food in question is salted fish.

I have an alcoholic roommate that pours water on his greasefires. Last time he went outside to dump it on dry leaves near flammable trees and plants.

He doesn't seem to know you cover a grease fire to smother it out.

Or just not drink while cooking with oil since he'll just forget he was cooking anything to go watch his fucking Duck Dynasty DVD for the millionth time.

He should never do that heres why .....

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

That's nothing compared to the 30+ foot fireball the mythbusters pulled off, and they only used a tiny bit of oil with water (it got up to like nearly 50 feet IIRC?) was insane.

My aunt is my pet peeve.

When I came to PA last month to visit family she got my phone number and now she's been texting me nonstop. Like overly attached girlfriend nonstop. It's fucking ridiculous. My own mother doesn't text me this much.

So I got into town yesterday and I saw her then, at my grandfather's house (where I'm staying, since tomorrow is my mom's surprise party). And I went to hang with my dad for the day today because honestly what else is there to do? Dad, his wife, and I went to lunch, then to a bar for a while, then to a local baseball game. Fun times. And she called me four fucking times. And of course I didn't answer, I am hanging out with my dad and that's fucking rude. So then she starts texting me. I finally tell her my battery was low but I was with my dad and busy. Take a fucking hint. I called my grandfather and told him not to wait up because I'd probably get back late from the game. And I should have told him to call my aunt and tell her to leave me alone. Seriously, I am with my dad. I am spending time with my dad. You do not need to text me constantly to make sure I am okay. I am 33 years old and I have been living alone and taking care of myself for the last 15 years.

I'm seriously considering changing my number now. She just doesn't understand simple fucking boundaries. My own mother doesn't call me that goddamn much. Fuck.

Saw the preview for Lucy. Don't even care for the movie. Hollywood is seriously starting to make shit for movies. It's Limitless 2.0

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

Went to the stylist this weekend to get a new color in my hair. My hair, being shitty because that's what my hair does (literally all the time), didn't take the color right and it basically looks like nothing changed at all.

I was told it would lighten and really start to show after my first wash but I really see so little change I'm thinking I'm going to go back and get it fixed. I didn't want subtle color, I wanted it to be obvious that I had my hair done and you can't tell except in the sunlight if I tilt my head a certain way.

Stupid hair. Sometimes I want to shave it all off.

Frankie may have just killed my interest in the Halo series, at least the multiplayer anyway.

So evidently because a bunch of crybabies whined on twitter, they're removing armor abilities and loudouts from 5 and going back to the classic Arena shooter style across the board (rather than making that a specific playlist type so that both crowds can enjoy the game how they like).

'cause you know, screw progress and trying new things. Nope, let's go right back to generic space marines with no personality or distinguishing features. Everything I loved Halo 4 for just tossed right out the fucking window.


Glad I haven't bought an XB1 yet.

If I hear my coworker utter one more disgusting and overtly racist statement I may just fucking stab her.

It may be time to start wearing headphones and listening to my own music at work.

Just give her a friendly reminder: "Don't be racist!"

My friends and I do that for each other all the time, because sometimes we say something that's more racist than it sounded in our heads. Like, why do black people park in handicapped parking spaces?

Re: What's your pet peeve in RL?

The thing is, she will always put the disclaimer before it. "I'm not racist, but ..." always means they're going to say something incredibly racist. I tend to shy away from confrontation in general because I have the tendency to fly off the handle and the last thing I need is to show my coworkers my temper (because as much as this job sucks sometimes, I do need it). But it's so hard sometimes to just ignore it when she says something really shitty.

The few times I've tried to argue it she's just drowned me out with her claim that she isn't racist, so she's not willing to hear it anyway. Ignorance at its finest.

There's laws against that, isn't there? There certainly are here...


Speaking of the workplace, another job I didn't get that I have no clue why... -_- no one wants me. And I'm supposed to be applying for college, but almost out of money... yaaaaaaaaay...
