You're too young for a husband.
I suppose with the church I can kinda sympathise. I'm atheist as it happens- but religion is serious stuff. You want your daughter to choose the right beliefs.
Anyway... this isn't about religion. (As Knight will tell you, this is a favourite topic for me.) I do see where you're coming from and it does indeed sound like a pain in the bum. -
Scruff McGruff up there is Ryan 'Van Wilder' Reynolds, renowned and half-assed player of shirtless, unlikable comedy protagonists.

So I'm looking for pictures of Ryan Reynolds (as you do) and I discover he has apparently married Scarlett Johansson. The gorgeous one from Lost in Translation.
Now he has gone from pet hate to nemesis.

I don't know who that is.

Wow. She is pretty.
Something else I hate - people that drive too slowly. When you're trying to get somewhere amd you get stuck behind some bastard that can't work the accelerater. GRR.

What, so I get called a loon somewhere in there and now you want back-up?! I hope Ryan Reynolds stars in a Red Dwarf American remake straight-to-DVD movie, you Welshman. >< Anyway, religion is indeed a fun subject. It's a very common trend these days for a parent to say you ARE a Christian or you ARE a Catholic, almost as if it's as natural to you as your genetic heritage. A trend I don't necessarily agree with. It should be taught, not impressed upon like something out of an Orwell novel. There you go, that's one pet peeve. I couldn't help but notice the WoW chat around here. I was not the sane American that you hoped to meet in that game...only if you were on the Horde. Seriously, once I hit 70, all I did was shadowstep and ambush countless lowbies. I probably spawned at least two generations of gankers from my time there. Hillsbrad was my sanctuary. Killed the flight master at Southshore soooo many times. xD But you guys are right about the community in some respects. You can really see the cruelty that some people are capable of. But that was the thing for me, it was just like real life. Those people are out there, and you really can't escape them, even after you've logged out. So, I dealt with it for a while, but I never saw it take a very visceral form in chat...except in Barrens Chat. Gods help them. I heard some very homophobic remarks in my time there, but I also live about an hour away from San Francisco in a state that is trying to justify not legalizing gay marriage. So, even outside of WoW, I think I hear it more than ever now. Which is unfortunate. Hopefully GOVERNOR SCHWARZENEGGER will destroy such competition, with ze choppa.

Tonight I am adding 'friends' to my list of pet hates. Or at least the people who call themselves 'friends' for years until I ask them to do me one favour in my time of knowing them and they are "Too busy" for 6 months!
Microwave bowls. Its meant for the microwave and yet it still comes out hotter than the food is and burns my hand every time!
Men. For turning into sexist screaming piles of wank when you play Gears of War 2 with them and come higher on the leader board over them. Men again for saying they are going to do something and never doing it. Men for saying "Woman are the most manipulative." when what they are saying is manipulative in itself. Men for locking doors for no reason even after you ask them to stop doing it.
Bioware for lying to me about Mass Effect 2 coming out on my Birthday this year then pulling the release date back to 2010 a couple of months before my next birthday.
Scientists for not coming up with a cure for Dyspraxia and Dyslexia.
The Governments for not putting more money into space flight prorammes and important stuff.
NASA for not letting me join.
RAF for not letting me join when it was my second to NASA.
Little kids that are REALLY good at doing stuff in a week that I've spent years practicing.
Slugs. Not snails... just slugs!
Little tiny beads you get in multi bead packets that are to small to even string on anything.
Mary-sue's... need I say more.
People that eat nothing but lard and sugar and remain super skinny.
People that don't take a shower after going to the gym.
Beginner Salsa classes that are mixed with the advance class. I am so sick and tired of doing the cookaracha(sp) after 8 months of classes.
Crazy people at concerts that throw there hands up and wave and smack you in the face then apologize and do it again repetitively all night.
Old people on the bus that tell you off for being young, leaning your foot on the side heater, putting a bag an empty chair or telling you to vacate your window seat because they want it although the bus is pretty much empty. I'm going to add scaly women with children on buses to, just because I get sick and tired of hear "Shut up!" *Smack* "Shut the fuck up!" *Smack* "Something wrong with this fucking child!" *Smack*
People that hit there children in public. Makes me want to spank them right back.
Oranges that look nice but when you eat a piece it tastes of nothing.
Spiders that come towards you when you try to blow them away.
The amount a text message costs.
Getting allergies to foods you love.
People who can't eat anything. You can't have EVERY intolerance in the world!
People who are multi-lingual and speak a language you cannot understand in front of you. Worst still is people who are multi-lingual and talk about you in another language thinking you don't understand.
People that leave the toilet lid up and hair in the plug.
Mustache's.

On Religion I hate it when people say that someone or a few people are going to hell because they are doing something they don't like. Like on Warcraft 3 one time this one guy said "I just can't play with you guys because you all are going to hell" and he was dead serious about it. It made me laugh. Personally I like the teachings of the Flying Spaghetti Monster And this is for Knight: FOR THE HORDE! Next people that think 9/11 was a conspiracy by the government. These people I just want to bash their head against the wall. This one guy I know was one of these people and for a whole 80 min period me and my friend where proving him wrong on every point he made and he couldn't back up anything. He just kept saying "I have this video. Just watch it and you'll think differently" but he didn't even know the name of the video.... Edit: While I'm at it let me put something else. People who protest funerals of gay soldiers. This INFURIATES ME! Why would you do that. They gave their lives for their country. FOR THE COUNTRY YOU LIVE IN! This doesn't happen all the time of course but it did happen. And one of the things I heard the protesters say was God's killing off the gays in the war.... YOU PEOPLE ARE DUMB SH*TS! Lets see... I think alot of straight people have died too. Ok I just had to get that off my chest. This happened a few years ago but it still makes me mad when I think about it.

Why should I go horde or alliance when you can go BOTH ways? I play both horde and alliance and they have their own fun. I have a UD priest at 80, I've just remembered, guess it's time for me to find a BF (haha, kidding. A fat chance I want to be commited again >.>) Also, Rascarin, tell your parents the majority of failed/bad marriages are young couples, especially if they are hastily tied the knot. Getting married at a young age is not the right moment, even my mother constantly keep telling me to forget about finding a boyfriend and wait till at least I hit 30 to start settling, and she's a strong buddhist believer. Speaking of religion, guess I'm the minority in the forums, I'm more buddhist and we have a more philisophical PoV of hell as a rite of passage of reincarnation but this is a pet peeve thread so I'll I'm not going to talk about it. (I don't go to temples regularity though, so I'm concider a loose person.) All I can say is that one thing I hate religion is the zealot deciples that involved. I still blame regelieous zealots for the woes and narrow-mindness of this world. The wtich burning and the hate on the AIDS victims which takes back in the old days are a the result to zealotry and now with the hate of the homosexual orientated people, I just can't helped but keep thinking "history repeats itself with the religion idiot ball again. Also here's another peeve: The Idiot Ball. A good common sense does help you a lot in life but I've seen a fair share of the ball being passed around in life and lituarature. eg: NWN2, Shandra's death could be avoided if Jerod isn't a fillball flinging happy trigger old gramps. What an idiot. Also I hate NWN2. I HATE that game. Almost all the party memebers are boring and flat. It make Tali looks good. Tali of all people! The Storyline is full of shithouse. I'm going to do a video review of it soon when I get the chance. I can't get this game pass, it needs to rip a new one. I don't pay attention to male celebraties that much as I find them plain or in worse case, ugly most of the time. It's just me but I find them highly overrated. I only like their acting if it's decent and that's it. I don't know thay guy you rant off Mr. Buch but he's sure damn unattrative xD. Not my type of guy, Also you'll going to hate me for this Buch but... I've accidently spelt your name to from "Buch" to "Butch" once somewhere when I was talking to a friend, at the time my eyesight is playing tricks on me... god I feel awkward.

And this is for Knight: FOR THE HORDE! GG, Hodster, GG: For The Horde! Now, help me find Mankrik's Wife. o.O But before you do that, I must first agree with you on almost every front. Not interacting with another player purely because they believe that player to be hellbound sorta flies in the face of what Christianity is all about. You're, in theory, suppose lead people to God. You're supposed to help them see the light, so to speak. To turn away and run is, technically, a sin in itself. So, no, if there is a hell then he's probably going there as well. Yeah, whoops. xD I'm an agnostic, btw. Not really defending Christianity, but I've met so many people like that player who think they're experts when they're really just being silly. >< Those 9/11 conspiracy theorists? It does my head in thinking about how seriously these people take it all. Ooooo, all the calls home were fake. The videos were altered. The bodies weren't the real bodies. United 93 was redirected to Seattle and captured by the government. Controlled demolition of the WTC Towers. It was a missile what dun hit the Pentagon. Never mind the fact that they have not a shred of proof to back any of it up, and the people that started it (those "Loose Change" pricks) should be classified as: wacky. The way they ridicule the families and the people who died is disgusting. And the people who protest gay soldiers, that's just another example of people who don't even understand their own religion and manage to make themselves look stupid in the process. Which brings me to tonight's word: Ignorance. This is easily one of my biggest pet peeves; when people think they understand a religion well enough to make judgments like "God hates gay soldiers." These are the same people who toss out the Leviticus quote from the Bible (which discourages a man lying with another man as he would a woman) and think that our society should take this to heart. Well, not only do we have the Separation of Church and State (which should countermand this, but doesn't effectively enough) but Leviticus also states that such a homosexual act is justifiably punishable by DEATH. Seriously! I'd like to think that we've evolved beyond such "hang-ups" like public executions for things like homosexuality and doing anything on the Sabbath. People who don't understand their religion, as I said, is one of my biggest pet peeves (if not THE biggest). I don't care if you have religion. I'm all for it, in fact. If it brings a positive light into your life, more power to you. But people who skim the surface of religion and act hastily upon incomplete knowledge frustrate me something fierce. Apologies for the rant, but daaang. ><

Also you'll going to hate me for this Buch but... I've accidently spelt your name to from "Buch" to "Butch" once somewhere when I was talking to a friend, at the time my eyesight is playing tricks on me... god I feel awkward. Noooooooo! That's no worries! I just don't want people thinking that I aim to present myself as particularly butch, that's all. I wish I'd chosen a better pen name. Mr Buch is an old school nickname. I must say, it's fantastic to see that nobody here has heard of Ryan Reynolds, or finds him attractive. The man is the devil. -- Knight! After you typed that about Red Dwarf, an angel lost its wings somewhere, you loon. Also, I believe Governer Schwarzenegger is somewhat opposed to the gay marriage. He is also a loon. As for the protests at those gay soldiers' funerals - yes I saw that too. Gave me shivers. -- This is becoming a religious debate! It has been interesting though reading all your feelings on the subject. -- Today's pet hate is people making snide, disguised insults. What's the wrd? You know, those tricky insults that sound like innocuous comments so that you can't react angrily. My mum does those. Almost as if I just like arguing - I'm going to add people who drive too fast (I go at the limit, all the time) AND My inability to grow a moustache. I love moustaches. They're great. But mine looks ridiculous, so I have the Abe Lincoln look going on.

Till you are not the minority I'm a Zen Buddhist. lol Though I tend to keep away from Buddhists because of a weird set of incidents involving some Buddhists and a stalker.
More Pet hates: People that raise there voice when they are talking about something embarrassing about you.
Man flu and all other man related pains that cause them to behave like four year olds.
Female hormones and women in general. Yes I may be one of the women clan but I do not understand 99.9% of them. They talk to much and say nothing or they bitch too much and expect no repercussions. They also have that weird eye thing. You know the one when you walk into a room and theire eyes start following you whilst looking sunken and angry about something. What is that about? They are way to obsessive with random women that might still there imaginary boyfriends. You can never trust a women near you either. At leats with a man if he is going to hit you he will declare it! Women... oh noes they have to get on the surprise attack wagon and its 99.9% of the time about absolutely nothing because they think too much. Think think think, is what they do all day long and then they think up imaginary scenario's and believe them. Just ask what happened last Tuesday night don't make up your mind and go out attacking. Geeze. Women are way to self obsessed as well. Men can be pretty damn self obsessed but it tends to fall under categories. Food, games, sex. And at least with a man if you have an argument its said and dealt with and OVER. Women... oh noes... gotta hold on to that one FOREVER! Argh ... women drive me as crazy.
Doctors. For all the times they ask you "so what do you think is wrong with you?" I don't know DOCTOR thats why I came to YOU! lol
Washing machines with built in tumble driers. It just steams your clothes!

I've got another one - people that completely disregard a closed door. Ya see, most of the time, my bedroom door stays open. So when I DO shut the door, one might presume that I have done so for a reason. Not so in my house. Despite me even putting a sign on the door saying "If the door is shut, SOD OFF", my mum and sister still think they can just BARGE RIGHT IN. It pisses me right off.

I do that a lot. Unfortunately I have a lot of the male negative characteristics too. Also I just read what Knight said about not understanding one's own religion. I agree strongly.

Well I'm sure you have a lot of the positives Mr Buch so I'll forgive you. lol
Oh before I forget... I know of Ryan Reynolds and you are right he is horrible and creepy. Pictures of him are so much betetr than video because he gets that weird face crinkle thing when he moves on video that freaks me out. I swear if you played that in slow motion in a torture I'd confess to anything!

Ryan Reynolds is a horrible, horrible man.
Today's addition is fiddly things and tasks. I have big hands, so I hate to fiddle with things. I'm clumsy with my hands.
Update- And I thought of another one. This tradition of putting 'ess' at the end of job titles when the job is being done by a woman. 'Manageress', 'Stewardess', 'Actress'. That's an actor, who happens to be female. We don't need a new word just so that everyone knows she's not a man.

I'll go berserk if someone puts my tittle as a 'game designeress'. As if the games industry is is already have a hard time acquiring, don't need to be differnated by men. Todays rant for me is the "Draco leather pants" factor. I don't fucking get it. What's with women having a romantic appeal on men being a jerkass? Ok, I don't mind someone who is kinda rebelious and bit of a snarker once in a while just to pull out a 3 diamentional character BUT, I see women shooning over asshats like Bishop (NWN2 not the guy from Aliens) and Edward from twilight. Either they into some disturbing 'role play' with leathers and whips or just plain nuts. I don't see the appeal to guys like that, I just don't get it. As soon I see a man with those traits, the sooner I'll budgeon him with my guitar. I don't need another jerk in my life.
