First of all, I'm not racist for saying Asians are bad drivers, or calling black people black, because these things are facts. I may be an insensitive asshole about the topic, but It's not like I go around treating people of different races differently without knowing them. I don't assume all Asians are bad drivers, but the abundance of bad Asian drivers piss me off. I can honestly categorize 90% of people who cause near-accidents on the road in front of me into 3-4 categories: Old people, people on cell phones, Asians (traffic in Hong Kong, Malaysia, China etc. is fucking crazy compared to Canada, so it doesn't surprise me) and 16-24 year old males that like to drive fast (I would probably be in the category). I'm not saying its some genetic thing, or that if you have Asian kids they will be bad drivers, I was just making the point that when a stereotype is true, or when being politically correct goes too far, the definition of racism gets broadened to a retarded scope where it doesn't properly apply. I have many friends who are Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Indian etc. and I guarantee if you asked them if they thought I was racist they would respond with "wtf" and probably laugh at you. I am just someone who cuts right through the bullshit, and calls it how it is, that is all. They might tell you that I can be pretty obnoxious when I speak my mind, but I'm no racist.

You think you can judge how I handle my relationships based on one example you don't even understand? Everyone has lost friends at some point in their life, and its not like I'm on bad terms with the person I mentioned, in fact if I called him right now I'm sure he'd be cool with hanging out, I just don't like sitting around smoking pot, and as a result we don't hang out as much, its that fucking simple.

About the getting old and sick part, when I say unhealthy people, I mean the people who smoke 3 packs a day, or weigh 300lbs, and then wonder why they fucking have health problems. A healthy diet and exercise can reduce the odds of cancer, heart disease and stroke by 80%, yet people still fucking kill themselves by eating and smoking all day long. I'm not talking about someones decrepit grandmother, I'm talking about the 35 year old fatty that can't get out of bed because he eats too much.

I think its hilarious that you think I am insecure and finds comfort alienating others... this is not the case. The thread is simply about stuff that pisses me off. Venting what pisses me off makes me feel better, its as simple as that. I get no pleasure from seeing people smoke, eat themselves to death, etc. nor do I get pleasure from passing judgment. I'm just listing off the things that piss me off.

If you think I'm so insecure, why don't you ask yourself what you were doing in your post? Did I just piss you off? Or do you feel the need to criticize others to make yourself feel better. If you don't like what I'm saying, then feel free to express why, but you just turn yourself into a hypocrite when you personally attack me.

So, someone calls you insecure and you respond with a wall of text explaining why you aren't insecure?

Something that causes me the most frustration is if I lose my phone around the house while it's on silent or (to a lesser extent) vibrate. It doesn't happen often but when it does... serious pain in the arse to find.

One time I'd given it up for dead and it showed up a week later in.. my parents bed. Yeah. No idea.

Why are so many people complaining about people who walk slow? If you can't go around them then open your mouth and say "excuse me, im in a rush, can i pass?" [or something along those lines] instead of walking behind them and whine about how slow they are walking. Am I missing something here? Sometime I walk extremely slow because I have extra time before my next class and I rather walk slowly and enjoy the breeze or what's around me then rush and wait outside my next class.
-edit-
So I guess people who complains about slow walker annoys me. Either go around or ask them to get out of the way. I guess if you can't speak up for yourself to get pass people then it's best to whine about it on the internet.

I agree with alot of the things you wrote, but this is a really shallow view on health problems. People have alot of reasons for abusing substances, being fat, bulemic or anorectic. You can't just put the whole burden on the individual, that's just naive.

In a private health care system I wouldn't care, id say do whatever you like. The thing is that in Canada, our healthcare system is free to the public, those who live unhealthy lifestyles put an unnecessary strain on the system, increasing wait times and government spending. There have been massive concerns over how to make public health care sustainable, and the fact is that the largest strain on the system is a result of unhealthy lifestyles. All I would ask of people is to be more conscious about their health, and to try and live healthy lifestyles. There are so many people who just don't care, and as a result they get sick, burden the system, and then the rest of us have to wait hours and hours just to get some hospital care. It takes months upon months to get any kind of hospital test such as a CT scan done, simply because its so overloaded. Many Canadians who suspect they have serious problems such as cancer, will pay money out of pocket to go to the states and get tested. I think that in a Country with public health care, we have a responsibility to try and live a healthy lifestyle so as the system does not break down. If a healthy person develops a sickness, I would say that its unfortunate, but if someone whos 80lbs overweight has a stroke, I would say its negligence on the part of the individual. I feel that its simply unfair that the person born with a heart defect has to wait for a bed because there are 400 overweight people who just had heart attacks taking up the space. The preventable health problems should be prevented, rather than ignored, so that there can be better care for everyone.
