Do you have any prejudices?

[FoOd77]

I strongly dislike the English. Every Englishman I have ever gotten to talking to is an infuriatingly nationalistic, impossibly smug and incredibly arrogant dickhead. Now I'm sure there's plenty of Englishman who aren't, and I acknowledge that, but I have met so few that whenever somebody mentions that they are English, I automatically assume they are an annoying little shit. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Also furries.

Nationalistic, are you kidding me?

Near enough everyone here wants to go live somewhere else because of how much of a sorry state the country is in right now.

Recession, Huge cuts to public services and spending, High unemployment, Terrible Economy, Expensive prices on goods, Immigration problems, you name it we have it in some form or another.

Also smugness is what we do best, that's just us for you...

That applies for most countries though, and I acknowledge that fact. In the US, just about everybody will have something to whine about, immigration, the government doing this wrong, the government doing that wrong, unemployment, all that nice stuff. But only to other Americans, the moment somebody from another country gets involved, it's all "GOD BLESS AMERICA" flag waving sort of shit.

I'm certain its the exact same way in England, only substitute "GOD BLESS AMERICA" with "GOD SAVE THE QUEEN" or "RULE BRITANNIA"

It's annoying as shit either way, and combined with arrogance and the smugness, has damaged my opinion of a certain nationality, and that shouldn't be. But alas...

 

[saoirse13]

I pretty much hate clowns, all clowns as far as I'm concerned they are all evil pedophiles.

I don't like anyone who is over the top religious. I don't care what anyone believes in how many times a day they pray to said being, but don't tell me about it. Don't try to shove your beliefs down my throat because I will probably burn your holy book in front of you just for annoying me. It's just one thing that really pisses me off, especially when I'm told that I'm going to hell for not having the same beliefs or not believing everything their holy book says.

I really can't stand they things off them stupid reality shows like jersey shore or the only way is Essex... Seriously what the hell are they. Seriously stupid marshmallow for brains umps lumpas. And I hate the people in normal day to day life that try to be them and imitate them. Your skin is not ment to look like its been covered in cheesy watsits for a week.

I hate people on power trips. I hate people who claim to be so much more intelligent then you just because they have been in a job for a number of years longer than you yet they can't for a sentence properly with correct English.

 

[Ashadowpie]

yah being a human is awesome, we hate alot of things, sometimes for selfish reasons sometimes for uneducated reasons but i know what im fully prejudice is with countries who treat woman worse than meat and sadly there are alot. of course i would never want to burn there houses down or hurt them, though i would secretly smile if one did, i am fully against their customs and ideals towards woman.

also religion of every sort. im sorry but i personally loath this non existent invisible "Man" in the sky. my mom died of cancer when i was young, around 9 years old and someone had the insensitive balls to tell me why she had to die. . .

you're mom died because God needed her, she's happy now and severing God in Heaven.

so as a LOGICAL CHILD i told him " God needs her? ..I NEED HER, MY SISTER MY DAD NEEDS HER ISNT GOD ALL POWERFUL? WHY DOES HE NEED MY MOM MORE THAN HER CHILDREN DO?! holy shit was i mad. what the hell kinda reason is that? if God did exist and had the nerve to come see me i would kick his fucking ass. anyways, i grew up and realized religion is for the weak, if you are strong you dont need an invisible friend to love you unconditionally. you have physical friends and family even pets who do that already. how selfish do you need to be to want more love than that?


yah i have issues but hey, i believe in equality of everything and i dont have an invisible friend. I am well loved and very happy with my life.

 

[FFP2]

I may be wrong here but I'm sure it can be up to 12 months, 9 of them paid. Again I think it depends on your work but I know my work has 9 months paid maternity.

I honestly think men should get at least 6 weeks.

I would say like 2-3 months... And even then I would want more, wouldn't want to miss out anything in my baby's day

 

[Techno Squidgy]

I don't think I have any big prejudices, but I know I'm a little bit prejudiced when it comes to certain sections of the British working class. Which I shouldn't be, because a lot of them are really nice. It's just difficult to not be prejudiced when you've been mugged and stolen from by the same type of people on different occasions.

I think with most people what they actually mean is 'I don't like being labelled' or 'I don't like labelling others'. I've been called an emo for so many years that it's actually gotten boring. Even on the days where my appearance screams metalhead I still get called an emo. So yeah, being inaccurately labelled isn't a nice feeling. It's not a particularly nice term either, it sounds clinical, off-hand and dismissive as opposed to saying you're describing someone.

Oh no, we're vocal to everyone about exactly how and why this country's gone to the dogs. Complaining is our national sport and we're damn proud of our ability to complain about everything and anything. The only time we get any real sense of national pride is at big sporting events.

 

[SecondPrize]

I'm not a big fan of Turks, Gypsies or Italians, though I only dislike Turks because, as a Greek, I feel I should. I never enjoyed visiting or passing through Italy. My dislike is to the point that I only made it a couple hours through Assassins Creed 2. I think it's just growing up in Europe. There's a bunch of different cultures smashed together in close proximity and familiarity does breed contempt.

 

[BrotherRool]

There's a bit in Jade Empire where you ask five judges about their bias' and each judge replies: 'I'm not biased but these two...'


Even the prejudices we're admitting to here aren't really right. If you know it's a prejudice that means some part of you knows it's incorrect. The real prejudices you wouldn't even consider for a second as a bias. It's how the world is

 

[Frission]

I'm prejudiced against people who try to justify their prejudices.

 

[Souplex]

I dislike short men, and twins. (There are exceptions to my short dislike, my best friend is short, but the fact that he overcame his inherent moral failings that come with his shortness make him a better person than one who was simply born good.)
I also jokingly dislike the Irish, because it was cool to hate them 100 years ago, and now people named Hannity and O'Reily are on the news complaining about the Mexicans.

 

[scorptatious]

I guess I'm somewhat prejudiced against gamers who have been playing longer than I have. Specifically, the kind of gamers that go around talking about how their generation was the greatest and how people who started gaming later "missed out". Oh! I'm sorry, I never owned a SNES as a kid, so that makes me a lesser gamer than you are!


I also seem to have a prejudice towards people who like specific games. i.e. System Shock 2 and Final Fantasy VI. Now, I'm not saying they're bad games, as I've never played them. I'm saying that from my experience, gamers who have played those games will go around talking about how later games made by the same guys, i.e. the Bioshock series and the PS1 FF games respectively, are inferior and "dumbed down". Which I guess goes back to my first prejudice.

I know it's stupid, as the people I'm talking about most likely make up a lot of this site, and I know most of them aren't like that. It's just the vocal minority that stands out most to me.

I dislike short men, and twins.

D:

...

):

What's wrong with twins?

 

[Relish in Chaos]

I?m personally prejudiced towards Theists (especially Christians and Muslims), stereotypically black people (because they give me, who is black, a bad name and I?m generally insecure about my ethinicity in the first place), and children (because most of them are annoying and I can?t even stand half the people my age anyway), the right-wing (because of their reputation of sexism, homophobia and refusal to understand liberal society), hyper-masculine males, hyper-feminine females, and conformists (which includes housewives, because I always think that they?re only housewives because society says so).

Am I bigoted enough for ya?!

 

[TakerFoxx]

I get a little wary when someone openly identifies as an atheist. If they turn out to be okay, no problem. But if they've proved themselves to be an anti-theist, I start to see red and, with a couple of exceptions, want nothing to do with them, especially if they spout nonsense like "I hate religion/religious people because I hate bigotry!" Come on, that's just full on hypocrisy.

 

[KingsGambit_v1legacy]

I have a few hangups about some things. I don't think I would ever want to go to Africa (except the very north and south) or South America. The crime rate is just too high.

 

[Calibanbutcher]

Oh, I finally figured out how to word a response:
I am biased towards: Self-righteous, preachy idiots who try to push their distored world-view down your throat, gleefully ignoring any valid criticism, blisfully ignorant to your attempts to change the topic / escape their general vicinity.
That about sums it up.

 

[Sir Christopher McFarlane]

I'm prejudiced against people who watch MLP. I can't think of them as anything but trolls when they explain to me the wonders of Equestria, try as they might (and a few have tried).

Friendship is Magic is just great. It's fun, light-hearted, bright and has a cool cast of characters, good music numbers that come out of nowhere and make the audience burst out in laughter (maybe just me).
Don't be so down. I know what you need.

 

[Delicious Anathema]

Stupid teenagers (we were all one, so at least I understand).
Homosexuals (I see it as an anomaly).
Spoiled women.
Mothers that think they have priority over others.
Gaming elitists that think this weapon or that power is for noobs and tell you to "learn how to play properly".
Music or cinema snobs that hate every mainstream piece without reason (I dislike much of the mainstream crap, but at least I tell why).

I decided to watch that "thing" all the way through. Until now I didn't really care one way or the other with regards to bronies and the like, wasn't interested in the slightest in watching the show, but I wasn't going to hate on them or anything. This video has changed that.

That was FUCKING PAINFUL. I'm anti-brony now. I would like to thank you for helping me to choose a side.

 

[norashepard]

I don't like people who look down on people who have tons of sex. I mean, like, that's awesome why is that person suddenly worth less? I also dislike those who dislike teenage girls for being teenage girls. YES Twilight is pretty dumb. YES One Direction isn't really considered musical art. NO that doesn't mean all teenage girls are blithering idiots who are incapable of any valuable thought.

I also deplore people who believe that they 'earned' any modicum of control over another person. This goes for cops, forum moderators (except these ones of course y'all are fine don't hurt me), most men in movies, celebrities, the president, rich people, parents, literally anyone who has power through any means other than personally earning my respect.

Oh, and pure-white people who join in on race discussions, or cismen who join in on discussions about feminist issues.

And people who think rap music is dumb.

Okay I'm done now.

 

[teebeeohh]

i hate people who will not let me cut the line at the grocery checkout when i just buy a pack of gum and a bottle of water, FFS people it would take you like 10s longer and now i have to spend 5 min watching you back a weeks worth of groceries.

people who identify themselves by the kind of music they listen(not by the music they make)
i don't like smokers and will consider you an inconsiderate dick because almost every smoker i know sitting in an open space where people eat will start smoking when they are finished eating. oh and hold the fucking things so that you have to sit in the cloud, not me.
i don't even care all that much about the cancer but it just smells terrible.

people who play shooters on PC with a controler. just why? you also don't use crutches to walk with perfectly healthy legs

 

[Bolwing]

I don't like people who feel the need to mention themselves as belonging to a particular group as a form of identification.

I don't like feminists, homosexuals, Christians, mothers, military personal, Bronies, gamers, atheists, democrats or republicans. I don't like people who identify themselves in such manners, not because of what they follow, but because of their need to make that aspect about themselves so prevalent in their interactions with others. They seem to have a chip on their shoulder all the damn time.

You sir, you speak with wisdom. 'Nyway. I have an irrational (aren't they all) prejudice against pepole drinking alcohol. And hoboes. And hoboes drinking alcohol.
