    I cannot post the link without breaking T&C's, but Bungie forums. Majority of the posts are "wtf?!" - especially peoples views on girl gamers and those, who think it is socially acceptable, dropping randomly drop "*******" every post. Maybe its a cultural thing in the States, which I don't understand, but that forum has some disturbing views on women and LGBT community.

    It's not an online thing, but my one line rant is: people with no walking agenda.

    When people post hideous pictures of dead/tortured kids or animals to FB and then caption them with "Reply amen," as if that's going to do any good.

    Yikes, I have never seen something like that but it sounds terrible.

    By far the thing that is the most WTF is anything to do with Gamer Gate. I mean, some of these people make threats that should be regarded as domestic terrorist threats (for instance vowing to attack panels with female gaming speakers). I have no idea why there isn't just a whole FBI task force dedicated to tracking down and prosecuting people commuting these legitimate acts of harassment and invasion of privacy.

    Waiters who engage in pointless, annoying small talk; I'm not there for a conversation.

    People who stop in the middle of the aisle in the grocery store and stare at the shelf without moving their damn cart over to allow for the flow of traffic.

    The difference is, when people are making real-life threats on the internet, that's a bit of a different issue.

    Oh, man, I thought I was the only one. And constantly coming by to see if everything is all right and interrupting conversations or whatever. I mean, I understand the social contract; I will let you know when things are not all right. If I'm happily chatting with my table mate and we're eating with huge smiles on our faces (you know, like women and salad) then EVERYTHING IS PROBABLY ALL RIGHT.

    And at the library too: *checking out book* "Oh, gonna read this one, huh?" "Yup." "Pretty long." "Yup." "You like long books, huh?" "I mean . . . I guess." "Well, this one should do it for you then." "Yeah." "Because it's long." "Just give me my damn book and let me be on my way."

    It's fine to come by and refill drinks to allow you to ask then for something else. But I agree, I hate the excessive chitchat.

    One line isn't enough to cover everything, so I'll just say that a lot of things piss me off, the trick is not letting it get you down and keeping you from living your life.

    Glad I'm not the only one who runs into that problem...

    You go to reach for something on the shelf and someone just cuts in front of you....

    Getting into the business of strangers because you perceive them doing something that violates your ideology.

    It pisses me off when I pass someone on the highway because they're driving twenty miles under the speed-limit and then the next thing I know they're riding my bumper.
