h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Montana Redhead:

I know a guy, and he's not a bad guy at all, but...one day during a hard slog at work he claimed he had reached the 'epiphany' of boredom.

Anyway.
Boy racers. They soup up a Toyota Corolla with spoilers, a huge fender, a 'No Fear' sticker (though this seems to have gone out of fashion) and a stereo system more expensive than the car itself, then they cruise up and down with all the windows open and a stupid 'ncha ncha ncha' beat booming from their speakers. And I do mean 'up and down'. They have nowhere to actually go - but they want to go there in style. Prats.

Oh, I'm with that one...we call them boombox cars, because they've replaced the kids walking around with oversized boomboxes blaring!

And what, pray tell, is the epiphany of boredom? That you should get off your butt and do something?!

probably already mentioned before, but here goes ...

wrinkled saran wrap

when people get food of their fork with their teeth so it makes a bit of a noise

grudges, especially when people bring up something stupid you said while severely pms-ing

bad commercials

i *think* that's most of mine .. ah yes and judgemental people

Sorry, should have mentioned - he meant the 'epitome' of boredom. Though your definition works surprisingly well

People who are able to list their own virtues immediately and unashamedly if asked.

People who wear sunglasses indoors.

People who, when handed a form, will fill it out and then put the pen back down on the form, regardless of the fact that I then have to pick the form up, causing the pen to fly off on its own trajectory.
Ye gods that is a *very* petty hate, but when every single person I encounter does it...

one littel teeny word of defense for people wearing sunglasses inside -- i did that sometimes going into an u-bahn station because i'm nearsighted, and if i'm wearing my sunglasses then i can at least read the signs, even if things are a bit dim. but in other situations i sooo agree!

teh card game magic

when i mention i'm vegetarian and a person asks, "what do you eat then?"

People who say to you 'I love my meat' when speaking to a vegetarian. Why do they always say it's their meat ?

People who say sangwich instead of sandwich.
Working in a deli I get that a lot. You just wanna say "Sorry I'm not familiar with that word. Could you please spell it?"
Although maybe that's something only Irish people say.

Similar to "haiche".
Haiche? What letter's that? I've never heard of it.

i hate people who feel the need to continually butt in, in the middle of sentances with their worthless contributions just at the point in a story when everybody is about to crack up laughing at the hillarity of my little anecdote. i drives me bannanas.mooooooooooooooooooooo.

Ah but isn't it also annoying when people don't seem to understand the nature of A CONVERSATION and refuse to continue talking if someone tries to get a word in edgeways. And them they sulk and throw a tantrum and lie on the ground and cry and beat their fists and then run away dragging their monkey arms behind them, monkey arms I might add which they refuse to use for dancing humerously for my amusement.

there is a thing called manners. its ok when people butt in once in a while with something to add to the conversation, something genuinely to do with the train of thought of the other person but its just plain bad manners to refuse to allow another person room to develop what they were saying-some people, such as myself, deserve this chance. what people like me say is worth its weight in gold and its about TIME I GET THE RECOGNITION I FUPPIN DESERVE.ARGHHHHHHHHH.MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

You're an angry man billy. Or possibly an angry cow. Ever given any thought to an anger management course? I think I'll suggest it to your supervisor. Unless someone already has?????

p.s. You're as gay as a ham.

Yes yes yes - I hate sangwich. It's a Scottish thing too. Along with saying Austraywya..

i am not so i am'nt. ham, isnt gay, its only gay when those wretched deli couner people(oh i dooo hate them) leave it out for days on end.

I second that. Bill, you are as gay as ham.

I AM NOT SO I AM'NT

Hey helly bet you hate people who write am'nt instead of amn't.

shut up panda. anyway you shouldnt be using this forum to conduct a personal chat. get off.

You know me so well! But it's OK, he's a dimwit.

People who chew with their mouth open.

Those who are so (insert favorite word for "lazy" here) that they cannot be bothered to pick up their feet when they walk.
