    whatever annoys you, post it here....

    I have tons, but one thing that really annoys me is the high prices for tickets for bands that have like 3 hits.... My twin daughters wanted to see 5 Seconds of Summer when they were near us, but tickets were $85 - $190...... No way in hell am I paying that..... I just saw Train for $35.

    Stupid parents will pay these ridiculous prices.... I won't.

    So, what annoys you?

    Five Nights At Freddy's fandom annoys me and 'gamer' kids that only play FNAF, CoD and FIFA and aren't aware that Deus Ex or Wolfenstein even exist.

    This thread annoys me because there's already a bitching thread.

    What annoys me is myself after I impulse buy yet another iOS game which I'll play briefly and then never again.

    Selfish people that use a communal based financing system to further their own gains while those in need become a nuisance and are painted as greedy and hopeless and left to rot. Those that say everyone has the same opportunities to push any sense of responsibility off themselves when they obviously don't have a clue, then proceed to tell you their first world problems they had when they were children and how they "did it", or even better use someone else's extraordinary life story as validation.

    That's actually funny to me! When I was younger I'd pay $10 for front row seats to the biggest bands like Zeppelin, The Who, Stones, and the like. Now you pay $500 (or MORE) for tix for the same acts and they're in their 70's now! Good thing I've seen almost everything I've ever wanted to see (multiple times a lot of them, and when they were in their PRIME) so I usually pass on 'em these days! People are always trying to get me to go still, but I just can't be bothered with that anymore. You can pay for an expensive dinner, $500 to $1000 for the show, plus $30 for parking, another $30 for a program, maybe at tshirt for $40, $75 for drinks, and who knows what else! Not me! Considering my past, I can't get myself to do that now! That's a lot of money, baby! Nuts!!!! Hmmmm. Guess this DOES annoy me!! ;)

    Another.... Car from a side street pulls out in front of me so that I have to really slow down when there was nobody behind me.

    People who block intersections with their cars so that people can't turn.

    Reputable web sites that obviously don't do enough proofreading.... Specifically news based sites.

    Internet videos where the ad plays, but the video you want to see doesn't.

    Still more to come.

    Well, true, I (shamefully) sounded like a hipster, but c'mon, Minecraft and FNAF aren't the best games ever and even more so, I've seen a lot of kids that like to attack and criticize other games for not being similar to any of those, I mean, seriously, 9 years old saying that Metal Gear Solid 3 was bad because it didn't had a fully fledged First Person mode and that looked horrible (maybe I'm a little biased, but MGS3 hasn't dated too badly), but anyways, sorry for sounding like hipster, that sure wasn't my intention.
    Also, from where does the 'self-important' thing comes?
    PD: I don't regret what I said about the FNAF fandom, it's full of crappy fanfictions that make Fifty Shades Of Grey look like a semi-decent read

    I know David lee Roth can't sing a lick anymore..... but you can get tickets to tonight's VH show in NJ for $6.25 EACH.... I paid $6.75 for my first concert - AC / DC and Ted Nugent, and Def Leppard back in the late 1970's!

    It's annoying that you can't downgrade/choose your preferred iOS version. Once you upgrade your OS to something that breaks your favorite games, there's nothing you can do except wait for the game dev to fix it.

    I'm stuck at iOS 6 for my iPad 2. It's not the worst, but I wish I could at least have iOS 7 to play more games. :(

    Spitting would be my something I'd add to that too.
