Anything you're tired of hearing/saying?

I'm sorry but to me, calling me Nathaniel is the same as calling me Steve. It's not my name...

LOL - I'm sorry, but that reminds me of Psychonauts:

Oleander: "Is your name Joey?"
Rav: "No."
Oleander: "'Cause I'm gonna call you slowey Joey."
Rav: "That's not my name."

I occasionally meet people that believe my name is short for something. It is rare, but occasionally someone will insist that Chad must be short for Chadwick. No idea why. I've never heard of anyone named Nathan being called Nathaniel unless they asked to go by that or introduced themselves as such. Perhaps people just do it to get a rise out of you? Or is it people you have never met before?

"When you get big in the game industry, you can make Christian games!" <-- my mom.

Ugh.

You know, Diablo had a lot of Christian undertones in it - even though it was mainly about demons. I met a preacher that loved the game. You should check out a book titled 'This Present Darkness' by a Christian author - all about spiritual warfare with demons.

It's more of a question I hate to answer even though I'm asking for it. One of my shirts for a club I am in says "Jackets" on the back. It's a joke because my last name is Coates. Every single time I wear the shirt someone asks "why jackets?". But like I said, I was kinda asking for it

I don't want to turn this into a religion thread but I was going to start a new thread for this topic when I found this one.

Any way I hate it when I hear someone describe positive attribute of themselves combined with either:
"as a Christian"
"because I am a Christian"

I know they do not mean to offend but it implies all Christians share that attribute and that non Christians probably lack it.

Examples:
"As Christians my wife and I don't fight over things for very long"
"As a Christian I went to give blood this weekend"
"I believe I should honor my parents regardless of how our views differ because I am a Christian"

I'm tired of people saying 'its not my fault' when I hound them on an online game for having a ping of 700 when they live in Australia and are connecting to a Uk server!

Er, you don't live in Australia, how would you know whether it's their fault or not? Like my good brother-from-another-continent MontyGommo has said, we poor South Pacificans barely get any servers, and I bet many other countries surrounding us and some that don't experience the same. Have you tried playing Call of Duty 4 in New Zealand? No? You don't want to. It's as choppy as a sushi chef with a psychopathic streak, and twice as rage-inducing.

/rage

To be fair if you had the greatest server in the world in Australia you would be screaming when us Brits connect only to cause your smooth fun game into a lag/cheatfest where one person takes 16x the ammo to die because their lagging.

I mean if I connect to a server in another country and find my ping over the 400s I shut it off and play it single/offline/something else. It's called 'not being a the guy everyone wishes just would kill themselves rather then try to play'.

Actually, I don't mind having someone else's ping in say, the 400s, because at least I'm playing with other people in a game that I can actually win at. I do understand that it's immensely difficult to win at a game where your ping is high, sure... but that means lagging players shouldn't play multiplayer? At all? Gee, that's really fair.

I'm not saying it's impossible for the person With the 400+ ping (its usually 500-1000 thats ridiculous) to win. Course not! When their pinging that much they are invisible and it makes team based games just a joke.

And besides I'm not buying this 'What so I shouldn't play multiplayer' crap My digg is that people the other side of the world connect to uk/europe servers and say 'its not my fault'. Lack of common sense isn't their fault perhaps.

 

[Hunde Des Krieg]

When people pronounce my last name as Bark. Like Burke but with an a. It is pronounced Barky you shite lickers!

It is spelled Barke for those of you who don't know. And even when you correct them they don't stop AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!

Also: Halo hate, 360/PS3 fanboiz, 12-year-olds on L4D, canned laughter on TV, and people mangling my name.

That's an obvious mistake to make, though maybe they're doing it deliberately to wind you up?

"Green"

If you use that to, in any way, relate something's environmental friendliness, I hope you die in a horrible hot fire while being attacked by man-eating locusts.

I love you.

 

[Abedeus]

I'm sick of people saying my name is Abadeus.

Are you blind, deaf, or just an idiot? It's ABE! Like in Abraham Lincoln, it's ABE Lincoln.

 

[Blow_Pop]

I'm just saying
Most people who say that are being asses.

Noob.
Enough said

People getting my damn name wrong.
If I wanted you to call me April I would put April not April Marie. Damn it!

People telling me I can't go see someone for some stupid inane reason.

Being told that because I am a girl I can't do something.
Like hell I can't. Watch me.

 

[Orkwarrior]

My name is Max and people keep calling me Maxamillion or Maxamus I hate it aswell as them saying is Max your full name, if I wanted to be called anything else I would say.

"When you get big in the game industry, you can make Christian games!" <-- my mom.

Ugh.

I once had an idea for a game like that. It was gonna be called Jesus II: The Wrath of Jesus. Tagline? "He's back, and this time he's teaching in blood.

You missed my point. I meant that players without any other option but to join servers with high ping just shouldn't play at all then? Of course it isn't their fault, they had no remotely local server to connect to in the first place! You should just be grateful that you have decent servers and not give a shit when lagging players join. Not everyone is as geographically fortunate as you, you know.

LOL - I'm sorry, but that reminds me of Psychonauts:

Oleander: "Is your name Joey?"
Rav: "No."
Oleander: "'Cause I'm gonna call you slowey Joey."
Rav: "That's not my name."

Raz: My name....
Oleander: Starts with a Q
Raz: is Razputin...
Oleander: *facepalm*

 

[Ophiuchus]

My name is Nathan, and I'm really tired of hearing my name being said as "Nathaniel". Then, when I correct the people that say that, I get treated like I'm coping an attitude or being smart. I'm sorry but to me, calling me Nathaniel is the same as calling me Steve. It's not my name, and I'm going to correct you. It doesn't happen often but Jesus it irritates me to no end.

Gah, this. My housemate drives me absolutely insane. For fuck's sake, I'm not Jonathan, it's just John.

How the hell can anyone get a name like that wrong? It isn't even short for Jonathan (that would be Jon), it's a completely different name - to further add to the OP's annoyance, Jonathan is actually a variation of Nathan.

 

[Aloran]

my last name is Kerss
pronounced curse
Several spelling mistakes
Kerrs
Kerrss
Kess
Kress
Kers
-.-

I even get called "Mr. Carr's"
what the hell?
is it so damn hard?

 

[Arkhangelsk]

I'm tired of being called dork all the time. Wish I had a way of getting back at people who embarass me and bully me, those stupid jerks.
