Pet Peeves

Random quote from Bill Hicks on the abortion topic ^_^
"If you're so pro-life, do me a favour - don't lock arms and block medical clinics. If you're so pro-life, lock arms and block cemeteries"

Another pet peeve of mine that I was reminded of today is drivers who pass cars pulled over on the side of the road to let emergency responders pass, especially when they don't even bother to let the emergency responder pass first (i.e. block it from getting by). Yeah, that is a douchey thing to do. You figure that the pick up truck would get a clue when he sees everyone on the highway switch into the right lane.. or when I make sure that he has a good 3 car lengths of space to move over into... or the big square car with red and blue lights flashing in his rear view mirror with the word 'ambulance' written on the front.

Well, people already replied to #8. Hip-hop from ASAFan, and I have to agree with them. I don't listen to any mainstream hip-hop anymore (@ #10. Kanye and his music can go die), but there still are great lyricists today. Someone mentioned old school hip-hop, but I mean I like old school hip-hop before gangta rap came into the scene meaning A Tribe Called Quest and not so much Tupac and Biggie although Biggie did have some good rhymes. Honestly though I totally understand why anyone today would hate hip-hop because the only hip-hop being funded by the major corporations is total crap and I can't believe that I listened to it a few years ago although it's a good thing I never got into the acting ghetto phase.
Nowadays I listen to Mos Def, Talib Kweli & Common (being the biggest names out there, but not popular to the extent of mainstream rap), underground like MF DOOM and Binary Star and some old school like the Tribe. Generally I listen only to hip-pop with a message and/or with realistic lines and good rhymes, not just people talking about how much money or hoes they have, or about how badly they'll f*** you up because for one: no one cares and two: half (or more) of what they say is probably BS. So I guess all the bad mainstream rappers is one of my pet peeves.
Oh and @ the stupid drivers who don't signal turns and such some jerk rolled over my foot giving me a bruise for two days (I thought something was broken because it hurt to just walk) because he wasn't looking. Now I would've most likely gotten over a lot quicker but what pissed me off was that right after he did that the asshole started yelling at me to watch where I was going... I considered taking out my keys and scratching his car but decided it wasn't worth it even though I could've gotten away. Bad thing is I was in Mexico then and going to the police would've been more of a pain than a help, so that's two pet peeves into one lol.

@shabutie
A more recent one I heard from I don't know where was "All the people who are pro-abortion share something in common, they're all alive." :P
@Xtras
5, very yes.
I hate morons who think it is their god given duty to ruin online gaming for everyone else.
fohfoh:
I really hate people who don't control their kids. Seriously. "He's just a kid" is no excuse. If 1 or 2 years old... ok maybe. But even then, maybe you shouldn't be a fucking moron who can't figure out why your baby is crying for the last 20-30 mins?
I don't give a shit for almost all debates I engage in. I just sit there being devil's advocate for both sides.
