(no subject)
Since I haven't posted in a while, i've got to rectify that now, and since it's near the end of the year, i've decided to post all the things that annoy me.
First, and while this is sure to get people mad at me.. religion. Now, i'm going to clarify on this, since the answer is vague to be sure, and with that in mind.. I hate the fact, yes the fact, that religion is absurdly powerful and has such an influence on people's every single action. As an example, I cite the reactions to books and movies that offer alternative views and possibilities toward religion, and of course the demand that Catholicism and Christianity be left alone, while members of those two groups frequently slander other religions such as Buddism, Hinduism, Judism, and even Islam. I know that's been a long rant, but I really don't like that it's considered wrong to not have faith in this day, and that anyone who believes something, or doesn't at all, is deemed heretical or blasphemous. *coughs and waits for response on that one, good or bad*
Second, people who practice exclusivity, in terms of rp, and such things like that, not relationships because I know the term applies to each. If you don't know what i'm speaking of, then this doesn't apply to you. I merely dislike that certain people only ever rp with themselves, and only a couple others, never allowing for the vast majority to be involved, which hinders interaction obviously, but also possible friendships icly or oocly. Even if the character in question is a rude, self-centered person, icly, then grin smugly to others, and say 'Earn my friendship' or something to that effect.
Third, people who, on aim, msn, and other chat messengers, frequently use internet shorthand in chat. For examples, I list the following u - You y - Why, and so on. It irritates me so, because you wouldn't write that way while in school, and to slack off even when you're not there is pitiful, and I just want to shake the people who do it.
Anyway, I can't think of anything else, right now anyway.. if I think of any more, i'll make another entry, and the same goes for the things I like.
