You know, I liked this thread, I think it's worthy of a nice bump. I'll make a list of things that currently drive me nuts:

- Final Destination when it's constantly used in Melee or Brawl
- The "No Items" ideology of people in any Smash game
- The fact that I'm not in college because we're too poor to afford it
- Frozen dinners (As in any already-made food that just needs to be heated up in a microwave or oven)
- My sister constantly referring to her boyfriend as "baby"
- The fact that her boyfriend is LIVING with us
- The sound of my brother and his girlfriend making love in the other room
- Though not so much, the fact that I'm the only one of my siblings who has never made love


This'll also give a chance for new users who've never seen this thread to list the things that drive them nuts.

-People who freak out over M-rated games because they had sheltered childhoods
-The Dharma logo in Cloverfield (if J.J. Abrams pulls what crap I think he might pull, I will personally slap him)
-Being poor enough to not afford new video games but not poor enough to garner sympathy from people
-Inexplicably feeling the need to apologize to people for stuff other people did
-People who stick cuss words in their sentences to sound older/tougher (not cussing in genral, just poor use of it)
-Seeing a thread bumped from three yeas ago that I never saw and thinking I've missed out on some twelve pages

- When people (usually always the same ones) complain about stuff I do

I don't believe this thread is useless, and you wouldn't've posted that if a more "respected" member (read: member that's liked by the mods) bumped this.

- "dunno" being considered acceptable.

It's for those times when "don't know" is too strong but "IDK" would be too casual. It's the business casual of phrases.

- when people complain about bumped topics.
Seriously, what's so bad about bumping topics? It isn't hurting anything. Also, this topic isn't useless.

-the idea that any kind of negative stuff has to go in the Angst thread. Having a variety of threads is better.

Ha Vid, I know how ya feel sometimes. Ever since the Frozenpants guy who got our (Meowrik and I) half-op deal taken away, some of the people like to run me over because of the opinions I have and the things that I mention, but I don't worry about it anymore. I'm 18 and have a life, so I don't let the things they say get to me.

So anyway:

-People who drag their feet when they walk
-Cocky people
-Rude, insensitive people
-People who flame
-People who think forums and the internet in general are their sole purpose for living.
-People who like ricers
-People who are too friggin' close-minded about everything and shoot down everyone with a keyboard because it's the only way they know how.
-People who freak out when people curse once in a while or when they get extremely angry.
-People who think "crap, sucks, etc." are as offensive as the F-Bob-Omb.
-People who are ditzy and think they are on top of the world when in reality they have no clue what they're talking about.
-People who talk crap about the country I live in, support, and pay for.
-People who have a problem with others referring to their bf/gf as "sweetie" or "babe" even after they've been dating for well over a year just because they can't find a girlfriend.
-Arguing on the internet. No one can hear your angry fast typing across the wire and USING CAPS to express your already hard-to-decipher tone in text is annoying too.
-People who trip about M-Rated games.
-People who are greenies.
-People whose main goal of the day is to try and talk as much shizcrap about everyone else's consoles except their own.... although it's usually only the really nerdy kids who do that anyway. I like Wii, 360, and don't think the PS3's all that special, but they all have their ups and downs.

--People who pick favorites.

- The fact that I'm not in college because we're too poor to afford it

Federal Financial Aid and Scholarships exist for a reason. Saying "I'm too poor" as your reason for not attending a 4 year college is a stupid excuse by lazy people. Then again I'm mainly annoyed by the amount of people either going to State or to community college here. I'm one of the few willing to move outside my homestate to further my life.

I'm also quite annoyed about people now expecting me to pay for everything because I now have an official bank account. I'm willing to buy myself rare action figures off eBay but there's no way I'm going to pay for lunch for 7 unemployed losers with no benefits who just happen to bump into me at the store (AKA My friends, whom I don't fight for).
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.
