I'm bored.

I'm bored.

Postby [OSX] Snags Almighty on Mon, 13 Dec 2010 19:04:08 +0000

So, I thought to myself, "how should I cure this boredom?". Then I looked at the forum and wept (metaphorically speaking) over the inactivity. I hope this makes it seem a little less quiet...

Well then.. what is your pet peeve? Not just on CW, but EVER? Everyone likes to rant about things they hate!

My pet peeve is prejudice... I'm always saying crap like "typical american" or "typical man" etc... but.. I don't mean it. I may have gone sour over the years after repeatedly being disappointed by various people or nations but I'll always give someone another chance.. even though I mock mercilessly. I mean, I've BEEN the victim of prejudice before. I don't see how anyone, ANYONE who has been subject to it feels that it's ok to turn around and subject it on others. To make others feel what they have? I don't see it. I always try to withold judgement until I'm sure I'm right or wrong. I'm perfectly willing to change my opinion of someone. And I certainly never base my first like or dislike based on skin colour, sexuality, nation of birth...

Here's a HUGE example: Women were put down for centuries. Beaten, seen as nothing but baby factories etc etc etc. Now that they're getting equality, they want to be MORE equal. Adverts for cars in which the woman knows nothing is seen as sexist. Adverts for cars in which men know nothing are perfectly acceptable. Seeing women as sex objects is deplorable. Seeing men as sex objects is perfectly ok.

I mean, really. I'm a woman and I see this as VERY wrong. Either it's ok on both sides or not at all - don't act like because 50 years ago we had no rights means that now we get to take away the rights of men. We've BEEN there. We know it wasn't nice - WHY subject other people to it? Wouldn't it be kinder to let them remain ignorant?

Bah.

Pet peeves agogo.

color or colour are both correct whichever you use just makes it more obvious where you come from. Myself I use colour. However I am not British.

Yeah, but that is seen as a "Bad Thing".
Adverts objectifying men are TOTALLY hiiilarious.

I don't see it as a bad thing, if fact I would say probably over 80% of guys see girls as a sex object being a good thing.

If girls want guys and girls to have more equal rights, they should start drooling more when they see a guy with his shirt off, like how guys would do if a girl was walking down a street topless

Ahhh true. Although if i do remember a study being done that females are more horny than men. I may be wrong it was at the beginning of my pysch class.

Now you are right women say i want equALITY BUT when they enter in a court room against a guy they are all like "im a women how could i ever do anything like kill my husband or cheat, or beat him". I am glad others see how wrong this is.

I am not particularly subject to road rage, but there are two things I see constantly that really burn my ass: tailing and lack of signaling.

We have these little lights on the back of our vehicles designed for the soul purpose of letting those behind you know where it is you intend to go. A simple courticy, and at time a down right necessity, but I swear some people have never heard of the things. And the effort require to use it is as little as moving your hand two inches. TWO INCHES! Then there's the tailgaters. "Hi, I'mjustgoingtomakemyselfcomfortablehereinyourasskthanks." For miles, less than a car length from my rear bumper and a super boost in my car insurance bill, if I'm lucky. RAGE. And it's always the same idiots that are always in such a rush to get to that next red light. They sit at a red, stuck. Finally turns green and bam, they're off like a bat out of hell. 2 minutes later and I roll up right next to them again, idling at the very next light. The only satisfaction is the look on their face as I smile and wave at them upon our second, thrid, and often fourth meeting.

Ok, I'm done for now. Bound to have more later.

Oh oh those bastards that don't signal when there're only pedestrians around. You're standing there, about to cross the road. A car's moving at quite some speed towards you so you think "hmm damn, I'm not gonna be able to cross before he gets here, I'll play it safe". Then they turn at the corner just before they get to you. Without signalling. Or you're crossing a road (like on the estate I live where there's a crossroad) and a car comes up looking like it's going straight forward and then it turns to the road you're walking across. And then they get mad at YOU.
