Stupid people grind my gears especially dumb asses who think they know anything. Also when someone argues with me in a subject I have superior knowledge in and won't back out after they've lost. Also the biggest one is probably women who lead men on seen my friends and myself get hurt over stupid shit because of it.

Same, or they just don't talk with you anymore. And whenever I say something, they always cut my "speech" with dumb things like "not hearing" or whatever like that x_x

People who don't use their turn signals in cars. I have contemplated keeping a bat in my car and following people to their destination and destroying their tail lights. When they get mad, I will simply respond, "You don't use them anyways."
I have this crazy belief that people who are too lazy to use their turn signals are inherently terrible drivers and will kill other people as a direct result of non-blinking.
I've already followed people home from road rage; the bat would just be the next step.

know what's worse than people who don't use turn signals? people who put their blinker on at the exact moment that they start turning or lane changing or whatever. it's like, the entire point of a turn signal is so you can give prior notice that you're gonna be turning or whatever, so you're defeating the entire purpose if you wait until you're in the middle of turning to turn on your signal


I do this all the time, it feels like I'm microing when I do it. I usually only let it blink once too, because BW players should be able to see it and react to it. You shouldn't be chatting on your phone anyways, pay attention to the road.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

When people quote mods and progamers and important community people and just compliment them and stress how much they agree with the post. It's as if they want that person to respect them or practice with them or just reply to them, pathetic.

I'm surprised nobody has said Dubstep.

Of all the music subcultures this one appears to have the most haters. It seems like a very polarizing genre.

This for me, or more specifically, people who "create" dubstep and call themselves musicians- though most are incapable of actually playing an instrument for themselves.

It's 2011. You don't need to be able to play an instrument to create music.

I'm not going to claim that all or even most people who make dubstep music are good - but there are a lot of people who play the guitar and write terrible songs too. The computer is just as much an instrument as a piano, violin, or even triangle.

They create music.. =)
Definition of musician being one who plays an instrument is a very bad definition.

People who say "Same difference." It makes me rage hard. EVERYTHING has the same difference, and this mockery of a saying has no real meaning. It annoys me even more when they use it in an arguement, because I can't argue against someting as stupid as "Same difference".

Why? I think it's a good one. A musician plays an instrument. A composer or songwriter, on the other hand, just writes music.

And I'd be cautious in even calling dubstep artists songwriters. You can't actually write an original melody without some understanding of music notation. When it comes to electronic music, the computer is more the author of the music than anything.

I guess electronic music kind of grinds my gears.

Two problems with this. The first is that a musician doesn't necessarily play and instrument. The second is even if you were to use that definition, you could make serious and perfectly legitimate arguments about what exactly counts as an instrument.

When it comes to electronic music, the computer is more the author of the music than anything.

This is a pretty common misconception and usually made by people with little to no experience in actually creating electronic music. The computer and software are just tools that you use to bring your ideas to life. The inspiration and actual content still originates in the mind of the musician.

There's really quite a lot that goes into it. It just happens to be quite different from the traditional process that we tend to associate with music composition and creation. But that's really what technology does. It changes the way we write, record, perform, and experience music.

Repeatedly being verbally harassed while playing a game with a group that is mostly friends, like poker or other card games. I try to be nice, but when this happens it's someone else's friend, and nobody steps in to tell them they're being a fucking douche. I'm generally really social and outgoing, but when that happens I'm just staying for the other people there, and I have a lowsy time.
