Don't Hate The Hater, Hate The Hate! - - - - - - - Part 19

[KevanG]

Don't we already have two other happy friend threads?

 

[Sawyer]

We have at least one already and on the FIRST PAGE of misc. community, no less...

 

[KevanG]

Too many happy threads between them and DJs good things thread. SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING!

 

[Bim]

I'm annoyed by people who are too lazy to think, and need others to think for them, explain everything and guide them to arrive at a conclusion. Dont people know how to use their brains anymore?

 

[Scarecrow_King]

I usually don't mind jaywalking. But if you walk across four lanes of traffic and make people swerve to avoid hitting you, then **** you.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I really hate my best friend. I'm his roommate now and he's probably the most disgusting person I've ever met. When I moved in, his kitchen was filthy, so asked that he clean it. He sorta made it look like he did, but all he did was move stuff around. I took it upon myself to clean his house and now I hate him even more. There was a black, moldy lime in the sink and the drain had so much mold in it that it was sealed shut. He hasn't dusted since buying the house a year ago, so it took me the entirety of yesterday to dust his house (had to scrub it down). I talked to him about how he lived, and he said that people will come hang out at his house whether it was clean or not, so there's no point in cleaning it. I don't know what the **** I should do. I sunk most of my money into moving down to his place and don't have the money to leave anytime soon.

 

[E-Man]

I hate social justice warriors who can't help but turn everything into something about their agenda. "Oh I see that you're eating ice cream. Did you know that ice cream was there when Hitler did the Hitler? Eating that is a crime against humanity, and how do you live with yourself?"

And I agree. Especially activists who just tweet hash-tags, but aren't passionate enough about the issue that supposedly outrages them to actually leave their house and mount a real physical protest. The whole thing seems fake and disingenuous and safe.

I'm not saying all social media campaigns are bad or knee-jerk, but oh, about 75% are.

More like 95%. Yes I'm that cynical. 'Murica let me down!

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

The only hastag campaign that matters is #BanSawyer.

Reminds me of the bikers in my area. We have a whole group of them that take up the ENTIRE road, ignore even the most basic of roadway courtesies, and then they get made when people honk their horns at them, or try to pass them.

Apparently, if you're on a bike, you can do whatever you want.

The elderly in otherwords?

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Sadly in 2014 I trust the elderly to be more pro-active and thoughtful than I do people my age. By far.

 

[Feenix]

I hate that my two friends have become part of the pyramid scheme known as Juice + (the mom got them into it) and how they judge everyone on what they eat.

If you have to buy a product to sell a product, it's a scam. If the product you are selling is not sold on shelves, but is the "best product ever", then why is it not sold on shelves?

It depends on the ones you meet. I've met enough of them who don't care enough to learn the most basic modern things that if I start now, I'll have my own thread of why so many elderly people can't use a computer, insist on writing checks and are actively trying to kill the government and induce anarchy.

I can't even start on this one either. I know someone who is into these fads and scams. We have (and by "we" I mean at least 6-7 people) said that these things aren't legitimate and they are only using buzz-words to get gullible people to buy their crap.

Naturally we're all wrong, they are right and then only after they find out on their own this stuff is bunk is it time to move onto the next miracle cure/food/lifestyle.

 

[Hellion]

After having a conversation with a friend…I hate how he values and waxes poetic about his arrests/jail time as a badge of honor. Boy…you were caught stealing from a local gas station and the police tailed you…you're not some tragic misunderstood revolutionary…

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

He's the Robin Hood of LiquorLand.

No, but seriously, that'd piss me off too. How self-righteous and delusional can one be? May I suggest making better (non-felon) friends?

 

[Teelie]

Is he an aspiring musician?

Spoiler

The joke of course being that it gives you "street cred" when it's just sad that someone thinks this is a legitimate way to earn credibility with others.

I don't like dropping friends, especially ones you've known since preschool, like 20+ years…myself, I've already been dropped by a few friends after they became aware I'm conservative in my views as they thought I was (another things I hate&#8230…I'll always be a support network for my friends…I'll never be colored by what befalls them or what they practice or believe in…

That might explain a lot, but no.

[Doctor Evo]

I hate the anti-GMO movement. I put it on par with the anti-vaccination movement. It's born purely of ignorance.

 

[Teelie]

I just finished reading how the anti-MSG movement is finger-pointing at anything and everything as caused by it (the fact science has never found anything is meaningless). I haven't ever believed MSG is really that bad for you but the list of things it "causes" and the lack of explanation is astounding.

 

[KevanG]

A good amount of anti-whatever movements are started by idiots who know nothing about what they're talking about.
