Pet Hates!

I hate most people from Kemnay.

Well, that's put a downer on my day. Is it just being from Kemnay that grinds your gears, or something more specific that would exclude radical young dudes like myself?

I hate surfer talk, words like "groovy", "radical" etc. Basically, any word used in Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles cartoons.

I'm actually quite interested in words like these, and how they drastically differ which seems to be a region factor more than anything. Round my way when I was a little terror, we used to say "Necta" if something was Good, or Ace - which is just fucking stupid.

I've got another on the tip of my tongue, but I just can't remember it! Gaah.

Fierce??

For me.. The worst thing is word pronunciation....

Why oh why, do Blacks and southern chavs ALWAYS say fucking "aks" instead of ASK ???.... really hate that !

and ALL those folk who can't pronounce their "Th" and replace them with "F".....

Fink

Fought

etc..... does my bleeding head in !

Oh, I'm with you there.

Similarly, people who say text-es instead of texts. What the fuck?

There's a bunch of people who stand outside a flat on Crown Street and shout for one of their friends, they do it at all fucking hours. Instead of just going to the buzzer and getting hold of them that way, they stand in the street and shout 'Claaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaire!' until the girl opens the window. Then they have a 10 minute conversation shouted across the road about where they can get drugs that night.

I hate being interupted. My dad does it constantly. He asks me about something and when I reply he butts in while I'm talking.

When people who use overly impressive words to describe their jobs. Like describing it as a PR Team when all they do is hand out flyers at night. And people who constantly upload photos of themselves posing on Bebo. We get it, you think you're hot. Can we move on?

Anyone who interrupts me is endangering their lives........ ;)

Those Shelter cunts in the red jacket. I've seen me being hassled by them 5 or 6 times in one trip down Union Street. I think they've been joined by Amnesty International now.

I discovered the other day that those people have a strange job title, coined by internet blogs (I think). Since they are working for a Charity.... and effectively trying to mug you out of your money... they are now known as:

Chuggers. Which means they are chugging on Union St.

I get a bit of joy telling these guys 'I don't give money to Chuggers' :up:

Holy moly, this drives me up the wall. Similarly anyone who uses the word "tricks"

e.g "How's tricks?"

I tend to walk away from the conversation at that point, leaving the person who asked me to rethink their vocabulary and indeed life choices.

"Holy moly"

I've not heard that for years - brilliant :)

Here's a few others that have annoyed me recently:

- Total creeps on Bebo, who just trawl about looking for attractive women/girls so they can say "yr fit, add me on msn". This line has been the opening line in more cases of rape than true love and marriage i'm willing to bet.

- Racism of all kinds. I've snapped a few times this year when i've heard cretins at the football shouting racist remarks at players. I've also started playing CoD5 on mute after getting fed up of hearing chav 10 year olds being wee fannies and using the sort of language/viewpoints a Daily Mail subscriber would use.

- Taxi drivers. None of them know how to signal, they tailgate persistently and always seem to have ways of chucking an extra few on the fare.

The amount of females chatting me up on bebo lately has been ridiculous. For a while I was getting a bebo message every other day, saying something like "hiya sexy, come and chat on msn" or some balls like that. Now, clearly, the picture of some young attractive woman is about 99.9% certain to be fake, and they'll end up trying to get you to subscribe to some porn site, or buy something or something.

What I'm getting at is I know they're not just trying to chat me up. Anyway - those messages annoy me.

Jeez, that relatively simple story took some telling... o_O

But what if we're talking about a product from Asda that is better than the one from Tesco...

e.g. "Asda's fancy soup is far better than Tesco's."

Therefore if you were speaking it there wouldn't be an apostrophe. But there would be an added 's'.

Another pet hate...

Girls at gigs with high heels on and not only at gigs but also at the football. I just don't understand it. My feet would ache so badly. It's just silly and it hurts other people - particularly at gigs.

You people are pretty perceptive. I didn't even realise some of these things annoyed me until I read them here and really thought about it!

As regards the Rangers/Celtic thing, I'm a Rangers fan and have absolutely no patience for this kind of crap. Also, people who, upon discovering I'm a Rangers fan, give me all this "Rule Brittania" bullshit, basically assuming that I'm automatically some kind of sectarian twat.

Well, clearly that's different. I'm talking about people who say "I got this at Asdas". You mean Asda, right?

I agree, being a Celtic fan. I'm offended by people's ignorance and stupidity when they call me a Fenian. How could I take part in nationalist movement that ceased to exist long before I was born and in an entirely different country. It is often the people who make such stupid comments who then have the cheek to complain about the plight of sectarianism, which the Old Firm bring to Scotland.

I'm a Celtic fan (well sort of, I don't pay that much attention these days...), but probably best not to get onto an old firm debate on the Aberdeen Music forum....
