Stuff that annoys me...

Sign in to disble this ad
-When people use letters to represent words (i.e. u instead of you...b4 instead of before...etc.)
-People who type in leet (i.e. pwned instead of owned)
-People who use the phrase "4 banger" I know that this is common here on TB but I can't help it; it annoys the **** out of me.
-Bass players who challenge other bass players to bass duels
-Musicians who talk trash about any musician who is genuinely playing from the heart; regardless of the skill level
-People who get personally offended when the trade offer that they have, is rejected, regardless of how tactfully it is done (i.e. "I like your Carl Thompson 6 string fretless. I'll swap my Turser Jazz for it...")

What annoys you? And yes, I already know that people who start threads about what annoys them will be a likely response.

I use leet only jokingly. I'm a gamer and I've grown up with leet, but I like to poke fun at gamers as a whole.

People that talk in private conversations so everyone can hear how cool that person thinks his or her life is but really isn't.

YA like people that use I. E. instead of in essence, and Etc instead of et-cetera. So annoying.

I think what annoys me most is that the dumber and more useless someone is the more likely we are to not punish or remove them for their stupidities.

Also, Girls dancing in front of computer cameras, they look so insecure and worthless. Giving into the idea that their body is all they have. I guess if I could get money to dance in front of a camera and get free gifts for my looks I would exploit the male population also.

Obvioulsy you don't understand abbreviations. etc. is commonly used whereas et-cetera is almost never used. Same is true for i.e. and in essence.
When I posted this thread I wondered who would be the first one to turn it on me. Looks as if we have a winner. Good for you!

i.e. doesn't stand for "in essence" it is an abbreviation for the Latin words id est, which basically means "that is." It's a commonly accepted abbreviation.

How about people acting like the authority on something they know nothing about? That's pretty annoying.
