I hate it when I see an asterisk or some other footnote marker on something and look around, only to find that there's no fucking footnote*! I end up thinking "am I missing something? What extra condition or information needed to be conveyed? WHAT?!"

I see this a lot on forums, too. I guess people lose their train of thought.

Hospital workers who abuse the elderly.

Know what, nurse who almost killed my immunodeficient going-on-90 risk-of-falling pneumonic grandmother by leaving her alone, perched on a shower chair in a cold shower while she stormed off in a huff for no good Goddamned reason? I'm going to find out your name. I'm going to come to your house. You won't know when I've arrived.

I'm going to find someone you care about and abuse them the same way you abused her. Only difference is, I won't just be negligent/a terrible fucking nurse/deliberately not doing my job; I've got fucking crazy on my side. The papers will print stories about it years from now. People will shake their heads when they remember what I've done.

OH NO, ASSHOLES! LOOKS LIKE YOU JUST FUCKED OVER THE WRONG DEFENSELESS OLD LADY!*
*Okay, so not really. But I am shaking with rage.

This is America.  We have no legal method of compensation, so the only solution is frontier justice.

I thought of a good one that really gets me.

People who can't have fun in a game unless they win.  Just because you lose doesn't mean the game can't still be fun.

The best games are the kind where everyone can share in the fun of losing.

No one really likes losing completely...but I do think that a fun time can be had even when you don't win.

When you are completely steamrolled, then I think I am justified in ragequitting. Steamrolling isn't even fun. You can't do anything. You take one step and the two spies that have infested your base the entire time murder you, or you try to sneak around and get the flag, but your ENTIRE TEAM is on defense...ugh.

I've known fellers like that. Heck, I've been that person in particularly disastrous games of D&D. Of course, it was more along the lines of everyone-else-is-a-zany-sorcerer-or-rogue-and-I'm-the-cleric-trying-to-keep-a-TPK-at-bay-but-the-rest-of-the-party-is-making-it-really-difficult-by-antagonizing-every-NPC-we-meet situation.

Losing because you did everything right but everybody else failed you is a particularly bad feeling, especially if you weren't really given a choice in the matter of who you're working with.  It's also frustratingly true to life.  Hell, I think my life right now can be described as exactly that.

Getting interrupted.
People who interrupt each other and then instead of stopping and listening they just increase volume.  Not angrily, they just continue speaking normally and get louder.

I said I was sorry :(

you're a little bitch kazz

dog-parenting

This.

Dog deserve your love, admiration, respect and care. However, at no time should your dog ever consider you anything but master and friend. Personally, I think raising a dog as your child or equal is the reason people create asshole dickfuck dogs.

Excepting, of course, people who raise their dogs simply to make them into asshole dickfucks.

Hey, it's a lot like parenting, because dogs have to learn their commands like children with manners and other socializing skills.  Same difference, only dogs are cuter and easier to manage.

No, its nothing like parenting.

Dogs are animals with the ability to seriously hurt almost anybody in all but the smallest of breeds. Most were breed for working, protection, hunting and war*, and most still have those underlying wants or needs they want to fulfill.

Don't get me wrong, I love my doggies and I give them treats and hugs and kisses, but they've all been my pets and they've all been trained with a strict, 'I am right and you are going to listen' mentality.

*Of course, you're a girl so you're probably talking about toy poodles or something!  :8D:

On the other side of the equation, ending up on a team full of retards who drag you down, not wanting to play because Losing is typically not fun, and then hearing a bunch of shit about how I should put on a happy face and try to make the most of the moment. Usually parroted by the team full of retards. Or you know, the guys on the other team who can't reckon why the other dudes aren't having as much fun as they are. I wonder!

Time is money, chumpette.
