Hot Springs Turtle
Hey all! Thread is exactly as the title suggests. smile.gif If you've got something you're annoyed about, but can't be bothered to write a full rant about it, just stick it here! I'll start.



The character "Bayman" on Dead or Alive does nothing but break arms and legs. It's like, the only thing he knows how to do, and it gets real old after a while. mad.gif


Actually that's all I've got for now, lol. But feel free to put up as many rants as you like. laugh.gif Happy venting!

I hate stupid people! I can't comprehend how some people make it through life being so fking stupid!
Hot Springs Turtle
Why is it that whenever you're supposed to get a loan, or some sort of payment, there's ALWAYS a problem. >:( There's NEVER a problem when you have to pay THEM!

"bubbly" girls. The fat girls with no personality who are always loud and in your face and "look at me, I'm grotesquely overweight, but I got a really good personality" even though they really have none whatsoever.

God damn how I hate those kind of girls, cut down on the big tasties for Christs sake.

I hate pants! They're all tight and restrictive and don't have enough room for my package.

Dis fire alarm is drivink me banana!! It's malfunctioning and we keep getting evacuated every 2 minutes.

I just like to take this opportunity to announce my unwavering support for Portsmouth in the F.A Cup final.

i hate people who snore on buses...especially on 3 hour +...in this particular case i was drunk (still am) and it was late and he was a big fat bearded black man...and he was verbally abused by me after an hour of constant snoring

when will a movie worth buying a ticket come up?
Antonio Montana
I'm a fat guy. But one thing that I find really effing annoying is t shirts that talk about how fat I am.

People know I'm fat, they see how big I am. I don't need a shirt that says "Big Dog", or any other stupid shit.

I can't stand drivers that are obviously so damn important that they can't be bothered with paying attention to their surroundings. Usually it involves a cell phone plastered to the side of their head but I've seen far worse. Like playing fetch with your german sheppard while doing 60 mph and merging onto the interstate or having your eyes firmly glued on your lap text messaging someone while navigating around a residential neighborhood. Or even worse pulling into an intersection when you know that you can't make it through because traffic is backed up....have you gotten through the intersection more quickly? No, you've made it impossible for cross traffic to move even though they now have a green light....self absorbed morons.

Maybe that wasn't so mini :shrug:

Shops close WAY too early. And so-called 24-hour stores are only open 24 hours two or three days a week - every other day they close at ten. False advbertising. If it's not open 24 hours a day, don't call it a 24 hour shop.

The Taxmen, f**kers!!

I've said it before, but I'll say it again - I HATE - and I mean HATE - BAD CGI in movies. If you don't have the budget to do it properly (see "War of the Worlds", "Lord of the Rings", etc), then DON'T DO IT AT ALL. It looks ****!! It looks tacky, and rubbish, and it detracts from the drama of the scene. It's no better than the clay monsters from Jason and the Argonauts, but at least they had the added excuse of being made in the fifties, as opposed to the twenty-first century. Just use models, miniatures, and animatronics - they worked for the eighties and they looked great (see "Back to the Future", "Ghostbusters", etc).

Okay also longer than I intended. ^_^;;
the anomaly
like "i am legend"....possibly the worst CGI "zombies" and lions ever in the history of film....

although to be fair...the CGI "army of the dead" in lord of the rings was cheap and attrocious
Hot Springs Turtle
Yeah, CGI needs to be done right, if at all. I'm all for it, I really am, but as far as the bad oens go, it's killing special effects. There's no imagination anymore, it's just "oh well, hire a couple CGI animators, that'll be enough".

I hate it when computer games are going dine and dandy, then all of a sudden, BAM!! You hit a brick wall. You were playing fine, but now you're faced with a ridiculously difficult part. You retry and retry and retry, but don't get anywhere. Progress grinds to a halt, and the game is put up on a dusty shelf.

WHY do you need to make it SO HARD!? It's just not FUN!! How could it POSSIBLY be FUN when it's THAT AHRD!?!? Skill has nothing to do with it!! It's just dumb luck!!!!! IT'S NOT FUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rawr.

Also I hate it when I put too much hot sauce on my food. I still have to eat it because it'd be a waste not to, but ouch, it burns.
Hot Springs Turtle
I hate that I have nothing in particular to rant about at this time. mad.gif
makeitstop
I hate that I have no time, and yet am always bored.

I cannot afford a new video game system (at least, I can't justify one until I buy a crapload of other, more important stuff) and have to make do with tower defense games online. And those things are freakin addictive.

I found the greatest woman on earth, and now have to wait for months for her to move here from nearly a thousand miles away, and once she gets here, she may actually be required to sign forms agreeing not to date me. It's just not right I tells ya.
Hot Springs Turtle
I don't wanna go to work today! Hmph.

Also, why is it that as soon as a sequel to a game comes out (Guitar Hero: World Tour), all previous games in the franchise are immediately gathered up and burned so that nobody may lay their hands on them (Guitar Hero 3)? I tried 3 giant superstores yesterday and diddly-squat. Tons of the new expensive game, but not one single copy of the older one, even though it was everywhere before this new one came out.
