    Kids aged 8-14... Damn I hate their respectless, stupid, annoying, pseudo-funny but truly very sad behavior!

    And I hate having to search for the damn angry smiley which I want, which is not in the quick smileys section!!!

    Edit: Oh, and scared as shit people who can't stand my way of debating -- dissing someone when he makes a damn stupid remark/asks a damn stupid question. That kind of people lost me a EYP! GAH!

    What makes you think it's any one person? I do it too... and I do piss myself off when I stop and come to my senses.

    Are they trying to look retarded or does it just come naturally?

    I wear my baseball cap backwards when the sun is behind me and I have no collar on... to avoid sunburn...

    I flip my ballcap backwards when I need to see without obstruction.

    Surely a rifle shooter understands that concept.

    Considering I get yearly checkups for skin cancer it would be retarded of me not to protect myself from the sun. In normal situations the cap faces forward... but at certain times of the day I have to look after the back of my neck.

    Well.... if you're trying to hit a 10X at 100 yards then you may do as you wish.

    Except flinching. I hate it when people flinch on the trigger. I also hate it when people pull the trigger and their whole shoulder goes flying back with it like their pulling something that weighs 300lbs.

    Political Correctness gone mad. Its not 'black coffee' its 'coffee without milk.'

    Self-proclaimed experts. I read the Da-Vinci Code, I am now the foremost authority of Judeo-Christian theology. My mother and farther are doctors, I therefore am also despite having a 'qualification' in Social Studies. I read Dude Where's My Country, so now I would make a superior president to George Bush.

    Daytime television.

    Degrees in Social Studies, Management Studies, Leisure Management Studies, Business Management, Sociology, Social Management Studies, Media Studies, Advertising and Media Studies, Film Studies..... get a job!

    People who use words from other languages when one from their own will do. Its just so, so, so... je ne sais what and it makes me want to pugnavit those that do things like that. Shit-kopfs.

    Individual sachets of ketchup. Either give me a decent portion or trust me to use a bottle myself, I'm not anorexic or a moron.

    or is it from a dream? Today he would have said "non-lactating", of course.

    I hate to break it to you, but these studies actually lead to real jobs. That is by far the worst part of it: there is an actual demand out there for 'leisure marketing advisers' and 'mediahype training counseling supervisors' and what have you.

    I know, but the thing is anyone can do these jobs without these qualifications. The qualification basically stands for... Yes, I can speak lots of bullshit and sound like I know what I'm talking about/keep a straight face.

    I kinda do that too... Of course I am a rifle shooter

    What really really gets me is people telling me how to do things that I know how to do already without even asking me if I need their advice or not.
