My Pet Peeve - asian people who act black

[OR Freebird]

ohhhhhh -- I hate people who point out that your thread is extraneous

he-he I never search the forums -- too much like work -- just post when I feel I need to.

Never saw an asian person who acted black -- that must be funny as hell

Got a video clip of that?

[Killa.Kali]

well no :( I have a pic of a pretty bad one, this is a guy who i used to play Conquer Online with, he lives in vegas and he really does think hes black =\ he says 'nikkuh' and 'cracka' a lot...its kinda sad but at the same time funny :D if you just spoke with him on the phone you would think hes black, but its obvious hes asian lol

[IrkenInvader]

San Francisco is CRAWLING with those kinds of people. I swear that like 50% of Asian people here fall into that category...they drive cars like those from the fast and the furious, only crappier. Really badly, I might add. And they try to act really tough and manly, especially in front of their girlfriends. We call them Ghetto Asians. They do really badly in school and wear puffy jackets and talk during movies...yes, they are hilarious to watch, but also quite annoying.

Anyway my pet peeve is unclosed parentheses (like this

isn't that irritating?

[Killa.Kali]

LOL I cant say I've ever noticed one :D What about people who use parenthesis as a status symbol? like the fucks on my MSN list whos name is like

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((TWAT FACE))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Yeah, laws can be pretty stupid. Consider this: it is illegal for me to pay a woman to have sex with me, unless I film it and distribute copies for profit. :confused:

Anyhow, my pet peeve is straight-edge people. They act like they're the best people in the world because they're completely sober and unsexed all the damn time. And people wonder why large straight-edge festivals almost always erupt in violence.

[MetalLuvinHoney]

I'd have to say ppl who are fake, I guess some call them posers, they pretend to be cool by saying shit like "oh yeah i smoke weed all the time with my friends we got so baked off a gram" or they pretend to know so much about sumthin they know fuckall about and u just know theyre a fucking idiot but u let them make a fool outta them selfs anyway. And those who think they so much better then u "stuck up"

Hey I never looked at it that way. Damn good point though.

[OR Freebird]

That unclosed parentheses is driving me crazy -- is there some way we can get that fixed?

PS Do they call them Blasians?

does that suffice, or should I edit my original post?

[ermitonto]

You can't edit it now. It's too late.

P.S. Also annoying are closing parentheses that come out of nowhere, like this).

[tokosan]

whats annoying about that)

My Pet Peeve - asian people who act black

How about anyone that acts black period. By black I mean all the annoying traits, you know gangster this, hipotyhop that...people who basically talk like complete imbeciles...hah!!

[cannakeeper]

All mine are like common sense shit like...People that veer far left to make a right hand turn like they're dodging a fuck 'n spike strip! Asshole truck drivers that cut into the inside lane of 2 and ride side by side for 10 miles backing cars up like a mile long fucking wagon train. things like that.

Negative suggestions :mad:

Don't do that... you'll hurt yourself!

You always misbehave!

Cannabis gives you a bad memory... my mum told me and she's a doctor.

Take your unpositive suggestions and stick them up your arse you fuckin prophets of doom!

uh...what?

[bhouncy]

uh...what?

Right. Hypnotists know that saying a negative statement such as "don't fall" has the suggestion "fall" in the statement. Just like "don't think of the colour of your front door". In order to understand the suggestion you have to have a representation of your door in your mind. Or in the case of "don't fall"... the representation of falling.

Telling someone they always do bad things is often not challenged by children. Telling a kid that they are bad and expect them to magically become good is left to chance. In a lot of cases the kid believes the suggestion and acts on it in future. The suggestion is then reinforced. Tell them how you want them to act and suggest a reward for such actions. Simples :)

Telling someone that herb makes their memory bad and backing it up with 'expert' testimony can be taken onboard by a suggestible person as reality. It can then gerneralize across to remembering all kinds of shit even when not stoned. Reality is that if you train your memory using the same simple techniques used by memory champions you will release your exeptional memory.

Love and peace ;)

Bad drivers. I guess technically I'm a bad driver but that's irrelevant. I hate the people who stop in merging lanes for no reason. I hate old people that drive slow.. I mean your time is almost up you may as well giver tits on the road. I hate racism, but I also hate asian drivers. It's a scientific fact that people from Asia can't drive normally in North America. I don't know what happens on the flight over here but they just lose all fine motor control as soon as they take the wheel. And I hate the people that slam on their brakes while you're tailgating them.. like alright I realize that I'm an asshole for tailgating you but don't stoop down to my level. Nobody wins that way.

I wish I could drive around in like a '63 Buick with a bigass steel bumper and just t-bone every shitty driver I see. I'd be king of the road.

[Nightcrewman]

People who wear sunglasses on the top of their heads indoors even when the weather is dull and cloudy.
People who make that stupid "inverted commas" thing by snapping their fingers above their heads.
Not winning the lottery despite doing it every week really pisses me off as well.

my pet peeve, is growers with lack of patience ... lack of patience, and failure to adhere to established gardening methods, endangering plants with silly 'experiments' ... almost without fail, I see plant problems that would never have occurred, with a lighter hand on the fertilizer bottle, and more patience ... throwing more and more ferts and additives at a plant, in an effort to speed up growth, or 'improve it' ... as I'm fond of saying, " it's a WEED, keep it simple " ... :smokin:

[seattlesmoke247]

My pet peeves are people who think they're extremely knowledgeable when they really don't know shit... People who use others for personal benefit when the other person is under the impression that they're friends also piss me off. Sometimes I find myself getting heated at the stupidest things in life as well, for no reason... Gotta step back and say that's just the way it is.

--SS.

[painretreat]

People that won't mind their own business and could care less of the wake of their own vindictive behavior. A person with no heart! P/R :hippy:

[FourTwenty4Life]

Life is too short for pet peeves. I don't judge anyone. If you put everyone in here in a big room with lots of bud, I'm sure we would all get along. :bigsmoke:

During a smoke session, when people change the music in the middle of a song. Some even do it during a guitar solo. When I put on a song it stays on until it's done...my preference is to listen to albums all the way through, but I know that's an unreasonable request for our ADHD culture, so a whole song is my proposed compromise.

Plenty here have mentioned people who have inflated perceptions of their own intellect...I think this irritates everybody. Nothing worse than the guy who pedantically and condescendingly explains to you the way things are, based on a few half-remembered and half-true scraps of possibly true information. My father was one of the worst offenders for this.

It seems to be a habit of many people to choose a single insipid and usually monosyllabic adjective and then attach it to all things they like..."sick" or "kills", etc. (apparently "killer" has become too long to say). Nothing wrong with that in moderation, but I've been with people who literally use it every other sentence. I wonder if anyone here's experienced this....you use a word someone doesn't know, and they laugh at you for knowing it, like they're proud of their ignorance. I've only gotten this with people my own age (I'm 18), who probably comprise the most moronic generation of the last century, so the older people here probably can't identify. I was talking to a guy once and I mentioned feeling "stifled", to which he laughed and asked mockingly what the fuck that even meant. Truly tragic.

Yeah, basically the idiocy you see everywhere is what gets under my skin, but I try not to let it get to me too much too regularly. That's why I read, smoke pot and write me some poems.

I know, old thread, but kinda like it! :thumbsup:Anyway, was just reading and thought, I doubt we'd all get along if placed in the same room, especially if we ran out of pot! It is our differences that make everyone interesting!

About the only thing that gets me quick and fast is the trolls! On the road, I drive one way and when I drive back the same way a short time afterward and see an accident, I hope I did not cause it. Cause no one is perfect! We do dumb shit and aren't even aware of it. Most likely, we do the same things we hate. Except, for trolling! that is always on purpose and counter productive! :rasta: pr

O.K. must be bored to post on such old threads, but 1:57 AM what else you gonna do?
