It's sad that so many people have so many things that bother them.

Well there are quite a few things that bother me, but there's also some things I really like too.  I'll list them here!

- Family (even my brother)
- Friends
- Food
- Fun
- My computer (when it works)
- Girls my age (especially the attractive ones)
- Things that explode
- Nintendo!
- Halo
- Driving fast (but not like I sat on a cactus)
- Roller coasters of all shapes and sizes! (except baby ones of course)
- Junk food
- Playing piano
- Sleeping
- Video game cartoons
- Video game music
- Saturday mornings
- My pets
- Wal-Mart
- Pixar movies
- Garfield and Dilbert comics
- Sci-fi novels (go Battlefield Earth!)
- Summer time
- Football
- Luigison (oops, how did that get there?)
- TMK

Well that was boring.  I have much more fun complaining about things than being thankful.  Oh well.

-Those little sticker plants that get stuck in your hair and on your clothes
-People who get a laugh from a joke and keep on repeating it until they have squeezed all the possible humor of the joke until it totally runs dry (which is an awesome metaphor)
-When people correct you on saying "who" instead of "whom" or vice verca.
-How you don't realize that you got a paper cut until you look down and see that your finger is all bloody.
-Paper cuts
- When people wear one and one only brand of clothes all the time. Aren't the only people who do that the people who get paid for it?
-When people comment on my lunch. I mean, jeez, everyone's got to be such a critic...

I've been saving those up for a while until I got a few...

One more that I thought of while watching cartoon network (yes, i was that bored, i've been sick at home with strep all day):

-When, in cartoons, there's a sword-fight and when one of the people get hit all that happens is they fly backwards, with not a cut on them.

Thanks Yoshisaurus Rex. (Uh, I guess.)

I like everything on your list except football.  My favorite comics strips are

- The Far Side
- Calvin and Hobbes
- Rubes

I also like reading hard science fiction satire.

- Gateway by Fredrik Pohl
- The Time Ships by Stephen Baxter
- The Hicthhicker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
- The Maxwell Trilogy by Tery Pratchett (I just started reading this.)

I'm reading Manifold: Time by Stephen Baxter right now. I'm not sure if I like it or not.

As a side note, this thread has been officially derailed.

That was a joke.

- When people make a big deal of accomplishing something that's not very hard.  Like this... I got the 100th post!  Nyeh-nyeh!  Losers!  I got it before you did!  Take that!  Uh... ahem, in other news...

Oh yeah, Luigison, I also love the Far Side comics.  I've got two whole books of those hilarious strips, one big and the other pretty short but still funny (I wish I owned the mario strip though).  And BTW Chup this thread isn't derailed until the fat plumber sings... or the train tips over (the thread is derailed probably because of me obviously).  My next list is coming soon!


In the year 2000, Nintendo will take complete control over the internet.  Not surprisingly they will call it the "Ninternet".

 - When people use the word 'so' as an intensifier without following it with a 'that clause'
Incorrect: That was so fun.
Correct: That was so fun that I want to do it again.

 - When people end sentences in a preposition
Incorrect: Where is he at?
Correct: Where is he?

CW:
Stephen Baxter's The Time Ships is much better than Manifold: Time.  The Time Ships is the official continuation of The Time Machine book by Wells (not to be confused with the terrible new movie).

YR:
If you like The Far Side you may also like Rubes.

LD:
Sorry, I had to do that.

RP:
When people get the 100th post immediatly after my post I am forced to recognize the need for procra... I finish this later.

- When people abbreviate names.  LD is so right on, but L is real.

(I think I hear singing.)
