Corvus Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 people say that Star Wars is only for nerds. I just got this as a late Christmas present: I've been wearing it everywhere. I've discovered that a lot more people know Fett than previously though.
Matteo Kenobi Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 The thing that annoys me the most is when someone walks into your house that you don't know all to well and sees your lego collection and says, "Oh, you still play with Legos?" In that odd little tone of voice, I mean what is the right answer to that? They act as if it's bad to make shooting and exploding noises while holding little yellow people
JCC1004 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I hate it when people say what ever floats your boat.
graham g Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 It really annoys me to see people typing 'Legos'. There is no 'S' on the plural, it's simply Lego!
Derek Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I agree with 5150 Lego , and also hate it when people get angry when they see the word "Legos." That's how I grew up saying it, and I really have no plans on changing it. You all must admit, that most of you didn't know it was just "Lego" before you got involved in the community. I understand that the company says it that way, but I don't see how its that big of a deal. I really don't.
JimBee Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 More than anything else, I find it annoying when people flame each other just because they have a difference of opinion. I've left at least one forum permanently because the experienced members there had a habit of demeaning newer members who disagreed - including the moderators. Well, it's good to know that you're still here. I hate summer May I ask why? People who run up/down the wrong side of stairs irritate me. That irritates me, too, but anywhere, like in a hallway or on the sidewalk. Go to your right, people! -people that touch my car radio without asking. This includes making a phone call and turning down the volume. Doing this will result in instant ejection from my vehicle. I sure hope you don't have a kid that would press that dial immediately. Trying to sleep and suddenly hearing a mosquito approaching me making that "becoming louder as it approaches" ZZZNNNNZZZZZZNNNNZZZZZZNNNNZZZZZZ REALLY ANNOYING sound... Everyone hates mosquitoes. The thing that annoys me the most is when someone walks into your house that you don't know all to well and sees your lego collection and says, "Oh, you still play with Legos?" In that odd little tone of voice, I mean what is the right answer to that? They act as if it's bad to make shooting and exploding noises while holding little yellow people I just say, hey, you have your Halo, NBA 2K?, etc. fests, and I don't make fun of you for it. You all must admit, that most of you didn't know it was just "Lego" before you got involved in the community. I understand that the company says it that way, but I don't see how its that big of a deal. I really don't. All words of wisdom there. Another thing I'm not fond of is when people never say "Bless you" when you sneeze. Or don't use manners at all, for that manner.
ProducePrincess Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 My pet peeve is snotty rude little grade sevens that wear to much make-up or pretend to be cool by swearing and being lippy , oh well. my other pet peeve is people that always use sarcasim to the point where you can't tell if they really mean it.
Shoc Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Another thing I'm not fond of is when people never say "Bless you" when you sneeze. Or don't use manners at all, for that manner. I (generally) have good manners, but I don't say "bless you". It's not good manners, it's just a religious expression used out of context. If someone sneezes, I usually say "oh dear" (or nothing). :skull:
DarthSion Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) Why do i hate summer, simple I'm sane, what the heck is there to like about it, unless your a voyeur and get off on chicks wearing see it all bikinis. Its hot, its muggy, its annoying sweating, even worse trying to sleep, bogans stink more when your next to them in public, consoles over heat in 2 Min's during the day, never anything on TV because all the sissy sports are on swimming tennis golf cricket. I also hate shows offs, see it allot on here, like whoop de do you blow $1000s on lego. Or listing every single set they want in their profile, no one cares. Edited March 3, 2009 by DarthSion
Shoc Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 DarthSion, I completely agree! I detest summer. I don't like freezing cold, but I find the boiling hot a lot worse, and the bright sun! I don't understand why so many people can like it... I also agree on your point about showing off. :skull:
DarthSion Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Ah, but at least when your freezing you can have allot of fun warming up, unless your single.
Shoc Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Ah, but at least when your freezing you can have allot of fun warming up, unless your single. Haha. I'm single, but I have clothes, a bed and radiators to warm me up, which can be 'fun'. I just don't like walking in freezing cold weather, but it's better than melting in boiling hot weather. :skull:
DarthSion Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Not me, love the freezing. Just thought of more, when something gets nuked, when you hear allot about a movie being good, and then turns out crap, like every will smith movie, and more recently, the day the earth stood still. Never enough money. People who think I'm mindless just because i think bsg season 4 has been rubbish, i don't care about action, just make sense and be emotional. Rude old American tourists who call us colonial just because there isn't a bus every 5 Min's, and you cant flag down a taxi.
Shoc Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Rude old American tourists who call us colonial just because there isn't a bus every 5 Min's, and you cant flag down a taxi. We'd probably get that here in Britain if we got enough American tourists. :skull:
DarthSion Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Or worse people who think kangaroos bounce down the main roads.
DarthSion Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 The kid next door to me, god damn she is an evil demon child hell spawn of satan.
Derek Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 I can't stand when people on here refer to obscure sets by only their set number. I understand common ones, with easy numbers, like 7676 Republic Gunship, which is easy to remember because its one of the most popular sets and has a number thats easy to remember. I'm talking about "Oh, I just got set 1461 and that gray thing in the back is really annoying." This leads me wonder what the hell they are talking about. and so I have to go to Brickset (provided I care enough...) and search for it. You could at least give the set name or at least describe it....
KinGanon Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Trying to do something quiet when the faucet is dripping. It drives me absolutely nuts and I can't do anything with it dripping. Other than that I can pretty much handle anything else. (Including cold weather since I've lived in NY for who knows how long)
Aliencat Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Tables piss me off to no extent sometimes. I just can't seem to be able to eat them in one bite!
Aliencat Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Artemis/Minerva shippers or Holly/Trouble shippers. O RLY?
vulture droid Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) A couple of my everyday pet peeves are when: People are dumb (EX: the chinese attacked Pearl Harbor, or that stars are just really tiny suns that only come out at night)People whose political views differ from mine, and regard me as an idiot Little kidsWhen people are mean to other people for race, gender, orientation, etcWhen people tell me that I'm going to hellWhen someone joins Eurobricks and posts a thread saying that they have pictures of an unreleased set, and the link they provide is some disgusting pretty daisy site Edited March 8, 2009 by vulture droid

Derek Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Artemis/Minerva shippers or Holly/Trouble shippers. Ummm. I'm risking this, but WTF?
Natman8000 Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Disrespectful adults. Shouldn't they know better?
