Stuff you hate

genius.

People who join one's Age of Empires II game who

- ask for a team game when it is advertised as 1v1
- ask to "just build a city" in an inherently agressive game that is advertsied as such
- ask for a no CD crack when you don't have it and then quit 3 minutes into the game
- ask to save a game for restoration because they didn't have the foresight or honesty to acknowledge they couldn't play through a whole game and who then disappear, leaving the game unfinished
- think the game is a scenario despite being advertised otherwise
- drop out of the game midway through with no explanation
- resign because they can't be bothered to come back from losing without tributing their resources or a final massive attack
- those who expect help because they play stupidly who then don't help in return and/or complain when one doesn't because it would leave one vulnerable on their own front
- usually those who are Spanish [speakers]

Then of course there's those who are sore losers, bad winners, complain about acceptable tactics, those with ridiculous pings and those who refuse to play one because they assume one is not a 'noob' or 'rook' and they don't like playing games they'll learn from the most just because they'll lose.

Stuff I hate...?
My ChronoCross disc isn't working any more.


EDIT: Woowho, another victory to Fred Myers. I just bought a CD cleaning/scratch fixer-upper and it works.

I despise the smugness of economists. They think they know every little damn common sense thing about how the world works. Well congratulations; you really blew the lid off human greed. They make it sound like utter laissez-fare and free trade will somehow benefit everyone despite the fact that there are hostile regimes on this earth, black markets, and other serious, serious pitfalls in economic and financial systems in many countries. But because economists have this veneer of being the ultimate common sense wizards, economics has to be respected like a gospel unto its own self. It is a tool and facet of human advancement like any other system.

[FaustWolf]

DAMN STRAIGHT, ZeaLitY!

Part of the problem, I think, is that economic leaders are "too far from the forest to see the trees," so to speak. Fed chairmen, WTO representatives, and other econ policy crafters live in a world of formulas, and cannot feel the raw pang of hunger or the mental anguish of drowning in debt. It is a theoretical academic truth that free trade will be a net benefit in the long run perhaps, but they are utterly detached from the economic tragedies that are befalling the everywoman and everyman in the short run. And it's not just the US -- the First World will fall together until our standards of living match that of the typical Chinese worker. That's where this is going, and I fear the average Chinese worker's standard of living isn't rising as fast as ours is falling.

If I ever get where I want to in life, I'll be damn sure that I get input from randomly selected middle class families. That's the only way I can think of, other than having one's paycheck tied to the median income, that a policymaker can truly know whether the trajectory of prevailing policy is beneficial to the median citizen.

I usually despise 10-15 year old kids.  They think they know everything and think they're so much better then everyone else.  I even had one go to me:

"I'm invincible"
"Why?"
"Because i'm 13"

I wanted to take a gun to his head and be like, feel invincible now?

It's the springtime of youth, baby.

I hate Morgan Lujan, he's some fat sack of shit at my school. He macks with all the women. He's failing most of his classes. He wont drop out because he wants to be with my best friend, who he has abused before.

I want to kill that son of a bitch.

[V_Translanka]

DST...I totally forgot about it until right now at 4PM (which I had thought was 3PM)...I just lost a whole freakin HOUR!!! V_V Human concepts of time are ridiculous...

You can go ahead and blame William Willett for that...

I hate brothers
      kebrel

[Thought]

Literal brothers or the slang form of "brothers"?

[justin3009]

I hate some people at our school.  Completely out of nowhere they started picking on my friend (I have no idea why...there's no reasoning at all for it) and he pretty much almost braught a gun to school because they did it for 2 weeks.  The school is retarded when it comes to helping out students, they'd rather have them suffer then help.  Thank god a friend of his talked him out of it.  I'm always so worried for him =/

[Boo the Gentleman Caller]

yeah, your friend might need some psychiatric help to ensure he doesn't go on a rampage down the road.

but i agree - the american school system doesn't usually apply to individual needs, causing the single entity to pretty much end up screwed.

[justin3009]

Ya.  He does have alot of physical problems.  For example right now:

Ingrown Toenail
Bell's Palsy
Back Pain
Cut up arm

I'm not sure entirely how he is on a psychiatric level.  He's pretty stable from what i've seen and from what he's told me.  (Pretty much tells me everything).  Coulda just been a bad day.  Either way, I watch over him like a hawk to make sure he doens't do something he'll regret later on down the road.
