An old thread of mine....

This was a thread I made a while back, but why not revive it. Simply, what things annoy you online more than anything?

I used to be annoyed by a lot, but I've gotten more laid back in many regards, however, overabuse of the ";)" really, really irks me.

I know others are annoyed by "...", stupidity in general, and a number of other things, but what bothers you?

People constantly believing that they are superior to everyone else. Those people just piss me off, but thats when I have the needle to the inflated ego.

Anybody that purposely tries to irritate me which is kind of a general basis... but they will most likely be on my bad side for about a week.

People who think that just because it is the Internet, they are free of grammar.

I am annoyed by this.

People who think they are so much smarter than others, who find themselvs superior

I despise Genius, The Nsider User. He is very annoying.

I also am tremendously annoyed by Mack.

ANd pop ups.

Mostly everything that annoys me online annoys me simply because it happens in real life, too. I'll just post two instances of this, and I'll let you assume the rest.

First of all, I really hate it when I'm being sarcastic to someone, and they intentionally add realism to it, even though they know I'm being sarcastic. For example:

[Enter Dill]

Dill: Would you believe it? AT&T cancelled my phone plan for no reason at all.
Theophilus: That's such a bummer. What are you going to do?
Dill: Well, you see, I've got these Columbians, and five of them, including me, are going to take the store by storm. We'll slit everyone's throats, rape the dead women, and when it's all said and done, I'll go to the clerk that cancelled my plan and I'll shove my phone up her vagina, assuming she has one.
Theophilus: See you in jail.

Now that's completely exaggerated, as I would never bring in sarcasm so early in a conversation and so abruptly unless Theophilus was being stupid. But anyways, the other thing which I find notable that some people do that pisses me off are when people take sarcasm and not only take it seriously, full knowing that I was being sarcastic, but take their idiocracy to the next level by trying to prove their hard-assedness or otherwise in their response. Once again, a scenario.

[Enter Theophilus]

Theophilus: Great Jimeny! What happened to my room?
Dill: Don't look so surprised, I just moved the bed to the opposite side of the room.
Theophilus: That's terrible! Why would you do such a thing?
Dill: I was just wondering if you'd notice.
Theophilus: Well, in that case, I'm not really mad at you.
Dill: Good, because before you came in I was about to burn all of your salvia, break your records, and use your knife collection to skin your dog.
Theophilus: If you had of done that, I would have cut your fingers off.

The relation between these two scenarios is that in both cases the person took the sarcasm the wrong way, and thought maybe they could earn something from it (whether it be respect for their morality or fear).

There's a funny story (a really funny story, Theophilus and I might add) where someone thought I was being sarcastic about his band and almost broke a bottle of whiskey over my head, but I'll save that for another time.

Here's how I know I make good posts. When I tried to enter this post, the system warned me that six new replies have been made while I was typing this.
