Which of Man's Inventions annoy you the most?

[AlphaOmega]

Social community websites (Twatter, myfail, failbook etc)
The "Looking like a man with small breasts = sexy female body" trend.
Oh and the all famous thing that I am sure Ill get flamed for: "People that believe in certain beings with omniscient power" to put it nicely.

 

[bruffterman]

Reality TV

 

[ChocoFace]

War. Well it is something only people have.... a bears vs lions war would be awesome, though....

[Stranger of Sorts]

conpensation ads, nowadays nothing is your own fault its always someone elses

 

[Koeryn]

Velcro. O.e

Aww, why velcro? Velcro rocks!

Yeah. If we didn't have velcro, how would the US military forces keep their guns stuck to their back? (gaming refence of course)

Pfft! Magnets, duh! =p

I can't think of any inventions that annoy me. It's the people who use them that annoy me.

 

[Koeryn]

Gamestop. and Amazon.com

oh, and everything from disney the last 5 years.

Hey, Wall-E was awesome! Damn Disney for owning Pixar!

Fanbois! Though that's less an invention, and more a personality flaw...

Out of balance bass systems cranked as high as they can go. That bullshit makes me want to cause death on a large scale.

 

[d4rkxy13x]

Nukes, High school musical (like dark-amon) and modern Health and Safety

 

[sumanoskae]

Atomic and nuclear weapons on the count that they're about the stupidest fucking thing in the world

"hey let's create a weapon capable of destroying an entire city/continent"

"Yeah, I see no way that could go wrong. The human race has always shown amazing levels of fair judgment and restraint!"

 

[mjolnir2730]

...The internet and all its kiddy smurf sheep crossover porn and social (coughwhorebagcough) networking sites and, I dunno, WebMD.

My pick would have to be the "Nasal Delivery Technology" from the "Advanced Medical Institute".

It degrades males as a gender, I find it insulting, I find it's advertising insulting, although I don't personally have those problems. It puts emphasis on sex being about getting the female to climax, ('Cause thats the only part that makes it good right?). It could only make the males involved feel worse about themselves.

If you don't know what I'm talking about type "AMI Australia" into Google, (Completely at your own risk).

 

[WeevilStew]

forums....ugh

That lable you get which is impossible to remove properly and leave a massive sticky residue behind once its off. I had one on my air rifle and it was a pain in the ass to get off, and dirt stuck to all the glue afterward.

Religion.

Did you even read the op? No mentioning religion, atheism, etc.

I pointedly ignored it!

Why?

Because there was no reason to exclude those particular topics. They are inventions, and thus are on the same ground for dispute.

Actually, there IS a reason: I said so. For reason: Exactly what happened in response to your post. It starts crap, it's flame baiting, and I do not want that in my thread.

Velcro. O.e

Aww, why velcro? Velcro rocks!

That horrible ripping sound you hear when you pull two pieces of Velcro apart just kills me.

I'm the same, can't stand the stuff.

Steam can help remove the adhesive, as can isopropyl rubbing alcohol. I'd suggest using the latter first.

That horrible hermetically sealed covering that you can only open with either scissors or having the good luck to have teeth sharp enough to pierce steel.
