My name is Lyta (like "lee-ta"), but people stumble on these four letters and call me "Lie-ta." It kills me. I also correct them. I don't get the attitude responce, however.TheTygerfire said:
Also, anything involving "lol." I get so fed up with internet redardation sometimes. I have no tollerance for idiocy-- and this isn't even some kinda elitism. I plain cannot tollerate morons, and the whole "lolwut" idioms of the internet really give me a headache.
I can relate to the name thing: Birth Certificate reads Ben Adam. People calling me Benjamin usually find out first hand what life support feels like.
Mine goes to my boss: You arent doing your job, and if you keep going there wont be a job.
Me: Ok so what am i not doing according to you ?
Him: that's not the point.
Yeah lots of fun.
Oh, and yeah, im sick of talking about the weather... surely you have something of more substance to talk to me about !!

lolwut? i liek dunt unnerstan dis shite innit lololololol11!
ok, so that was a bastard thing to do to piss off Firia.
But its illustrative of the sort of thing that pisses me off, when someone intentionally says something THEY KNOW annoys you, because it annoys you.

I hate getting called JesusTheTygerfire said:
haha, sorry Steve, I mean Nathan. If someone insists on calling you by not your name, I dunno what you can do... see it as a sign of endearment? Man, I forget people's names all the time, I'd be all like "Hi there..... mate". I must say I'm a shocker for giving people nicknames that they might not actually like.. but I still do it, and I'm afraid that the more they protest, the worse it gets. You have to fight back one way or another... preferably with wit.
"Peace operation"
Apparently it's forbidden to call a war a war nowadays, it's all "peace operation" this and "peacekeeping" that. Why, damnit? How many wars have there been that weren't supposed to bring some sort of 'peace' in the end, so why are the things the UN do more 'peacey' than others?

Whenever people mispronounce my last name which isn't even that hard to pronounce in the first place, I get a bit perturbed. Or if people who have never met me before and have only seen a form or something call me William instead of Will. William sounds a little snobbish. Not as bad as when they call me Bill, though.

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.drkotaku said:

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.Tattaglia said:
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'.
That's true for some games (ie Mabinogi is for north america only). However if you're living in Australia then surely American servers are closer then the European!?!MontyGommo said:
And as I said before, my op is if your ping is over 500 you should quit out and PLAY SOMETHING ELSE! {or the 'I wont run over to you and pee on your shoes, please dont do it to me' stance on lifes phoibles

I'm tired of hearing:
'This thread has been done before, like use the search button wow I'm such an authority on these boards yeah for me'
'halo sucks.'
'no it doesnt you're stupid.'
'you're stupid'
'xbox is gay'
'ps3 is gay'
'you idiots should get pcs then you can mod your games and be way cooler'

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 can't believe I got that accross without cursing. I hate that word so much as it's used today.

I won't lie, I say that all the time, but usually just to make sure that the 'implication' of what I was saying, gets to the recipient. I.E. You might not want to be doing that when the boss comes in, I'm just saying...Eskay said:
My mental faculties are taxed to their limits when I hear people attempt to talk me into doing something that I have already, plainly and simply, told them I will [i\]not[/i] do.
Even my serious tone and crossed arms [i\]never[/i] works.
"You should try-"
"No, I want what I ordered."
"Yea, but-"
"No. If you continue to insist, you will be losing 20% of your tip."
This goes on for a very long time.
One thing I want to hear myself stop saying would have to be "yea."
It's a nervous tick, I think, most of my phrases contain "yea" at the beginning, end, middle, or perforated around my sentences elsewhere.
(I even mutter it to myself...)

I have a bunch.
"Well that's just your opinion."
No shit...
"It takes one to know one."
So you agree with me?
"You know what I'm saying?"
Not really...
"We cool?"
No.
"Bite me."
Eww....
